Advancing cell-based therapy in sepsis: An anesthesia outlook
Chin Med J (Engl). 2024 May 6. doi: 10.1097/CM9.0000000000003097. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSepsis poses a health challenge globally owing to markedly high rates of morbidity and mortality. Despite employing bundle therapy over two decades, approaches including transient organ supportive therapy and clinical trials focusing on signaling pathways have failed in effectively reversing multiple organ failure in patients with sepsis. Prompt and appropriate perioperative management for surgical patients with concurrent sepsis is urgent. Consequently, innovative therapies focused on remedying organ injuries are necessitated. ...

Transforming the Discovery of Targeted Protein Degraders: The Translational Power of Predictive PK/PD Modeling
Clin Pharmacol Ther. 2024 May 6. doi: 10.1002/cpt.3273. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTargeted protein degraders (TPDs), an emerging therapeutic modality, are attracting considerable interest with the promise to address disease-related proteins that are not druggable with conventional small molecule inhibitors. Despite their novel mechanism of action, the PK/PD relationship of degraders is still approached with a mindset deeply rooted in inhibitor drugs. Here, we establish how predictive mechanistic modeling specifically tailored to TPDs can significantly enhance the value of the available information during lead generatio...

Pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines are the game-changers in childhood obesity-associated metabolic disorders (diabetes and non-alcoholic fatty liver diseases)
Rev Endocr Metab Disord. 2024 May 6. doi: 10.1007/s11154-024-09884-y. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTChildhood obesity is a chronic inflammatory epidemic that affects children worldwide. Obesity affects approximately 1 in 5 children worldwide. Obesity in children can worsen weight gain and raise the risk of obesity-related comorbidities like diabetes and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). It can also negatively impact the quality of life for these children. Obesity disrupts immune system function, influencing cytokine (interleukins) balance and expression levels, adipokines, and innate and adaptive immune cells. The...

A Systematic Review of Herbal Interventions for the Management of Cardiovascular Diseases
CONCLUSION: This comprehensive review highlights the potential of herbal interventions as valuable adjuncts or alternatives for managing cardiovascular diseases. Herbal remedies offer diverse mechanisms of action, targeting key CVD risk factors and pathways. While promising, their clinical utility warrants further investigation through well-designed trials to establish their safety and efficacy, paving the way for integrated approaches to cardiovascular disease management. Healthcare providers and patients should engage in informed discussions about the use of herbal interventions alongside conventional therapies in the co...

Antibody Drug Conjugate Sacituzumab Govitecan Enables A Sequential TOP1/PARP Inhibitor Cancer Therapy Strategy in Breast Cancer Patients
CONCLUSIONS: While SG dosed concurrently with talazoparib is not tolerated clinically due to an insufficient therapeutic window, sequential dosing of SG then talazoparib proved a viable strategy. These findings support further clinical development of the combination and suggest that ADC-based therapy may facilitate novel, mechanism-based dosing strategies.PMID:38709212 | DOI:10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-24-0428 (Source: Clinical Genitourinary Cancer)

A Single-Arm Multi-Center Phase II Clinical Trial of Cadonilimab (anti-PD-1/CTLA-4) in Combination with or without Conventional Second-Line Treatment for Patients with Extensive Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer
Technol Cancer Res Treat. 2024 Jan-Dec;23:15330338241249690. doi: 10.1177/15330338241249690.ABSTRACTBACKGROUND: Cadonilimab (AK104) is a bispecific IgG-single-chain Fv fragment (ScFv) antibody that binds to PD-1 and CTLA-4. Cadonilimab has shown encouraging anti-tumour activity and a favourable safety profile in several tumour types. In second-line treatment, there is no defined standard of care for patients with extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). Cadonilimab is expected to show substantial clinical efficacy.OBJECTIVE: To assess the antitumor activity and safety of cadonilimab monotherapy or combination with...

Clinical characteristics of and growth hormone treatment effects on short stature with type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF1R) gene alteration
Endocr J. 2024 May 3. doi: 10.1507/endocrj.EJ23-0680. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTShort stature with IGF-1 receptor (IGF1R) gene alteration is known as small-for-gestational-age (SGA) short stature with elevated serum IGF1 levels. Its prevalence and clinical characteristics remain unclear. No adapted treatment is available for short stature related to IGF1R gene alteration in Japan, and genetic testing is not yet widely accessible. We investigated short stature with IGF1R gene alterations and analyzed the clinical data of 13 patients using the results of questionnaires issued to the Japanese Society for Pediatric Endocri...
