Evaluation of mycophenolic acid exposure in a patient with immune-related hepatotoxicity caused by nivolumab and ipilimumab therapy for malignant melanoma: a case report
ConclusionOur patient did not exceed the upper limit of MPA levels as an index of the onset of side effects of kidney transplantation and achieved rapid improvement in liver function. Prompt initiation of MMF after assessment of the steroid effect leads to adequate MPA exposure. Therapeutic drug monitoring should be considered when MMF is administered, to avoid overexposure.

Parthenolide inhibits the proliferation and migration of cervical cancer cells via FAK/GSK3 β pathway
ConclusionTaken together, the present in vitro results suggest that PTL may inhibit the proliferation and migration of CC cells through down-regulating the FAK/GSK3 β signaling pathway, providing new insights for the application of PTL in the treatment of CC.

Translational PK-PD/TD modeling of antitumor effects and peripheral neuropathy in gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel chemotherapy from xenograft mice to patients for optimal dose and schedule
ConclusionThe PK-PD/TD model-based translational approach provides a guide for optimal dose determination to avoid severe PN while maintaining antitumor effects during GnP chemotherapy. Further research is needed to enhance its applicability and potential for combination chemotherapy regimens. (Source: Cancer Chemotherapy and Pharmacology)

Real-world data on the management of pazopanib-induced liver toxicity in routine care of renal cell cancer and soft tissue sarcoma patients
ConclusionOur study did not demonstrate a clear relationship between pazopanib exposure and the occurrence of pazopanib-induced liver toxicity. Half of the patients were able to safely continue or restart pazopanib treatment after liver toxicity and received the same dose as prior to drug withdrawal. Successful interventions to address pazopanib-induced toxicity in the clinic led to an algorithm for the management of pazopanib-induced liver toxicity. (Source: Cancer Chemotherapy and Pharmacology)

Enhanced anticancer synergy of LOM612 in combination with selinexor: FOXO1 nuclear translocation-mediated inhibition of Wnt/ β-catenin signaling pathway in breast cancer
ConclusionsCollectively, this study underscores the potential of combining LOM612 and selinexor as an efficacious anti-BC strategy. The underlying mechanism involves FOXO1's nuclear translocation, which disrupts TCF- β-catenin interactions, thus indirectly inhibiting the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

Relative bioavailability of fedratinib through various alternative oral administration methods in healthy adults
AbstractFedratinib is an oral Janus kinase 2-selective inhibitor for the treatment of adult patients with intermediate-2 or high-risk myelofibrosis; however, some patients have difficulty with oral dosing. This randomized, phase 1, open-label, 2-part crossover study evaluated the relative bioavailability, safety, tolerability, taste, and palatability of fedratinib resulting from various alternative oral administration methods in healthy adults. Participants could receive fedratinib 400  mg orally as intact capsules along with a nutritional supplement; as contents of capsules dispersed in a nutritional supplement, delivere...
