Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) consensus definitions for resistance to combinations of immune checkpoint inhibitors
J Immunother Cancer. 2023 Mar;11(3):e005921. doi: 10.1136/jitc-2022-005921.ABSTRACTImmunotherapy is the standard of care for several cancers and the field continues to advance at a rapid pace, with novel combinations leading to indications in an increasing number of disease settings. Durable responses and long-term survival with immunotherapy have been demonstrated in some patients, though lack of initial benefit and recurrence after extended disease control remain major hurdles for the field. Many new combination regimens are in development for patients whose disease progressed on initial immunotherapy. To guide clinical ...

Summary of the joint National Institutes of Health and the Food and Drug Administration workshop titled “exploring the science surrounding the safe use of bioactive ingredients in infant formula: Considerations for an assessment framework”
The US government and many professional societies recommend that human milk be the sole source of nutrition for infants up to 6 months-of-age.1,2 However, only about 25% of infants in the US meet this goal signaling an urgent need for improved multi-level support for breastfeeding among societies, communities, and families.2 In addition, when breastfeeding is not possible, access to a safe and effective source of nutrition —provided by infant formula (IF) is critical. The search for bioactive ingredients found in human milk (HM) that could be added to formula has been intense among academic institutions, governmental res...

by Paul Kuodi, Yanay Gorelik, Michael Edelstein BackgroundAs of July 2021, there has been more than 185 million documented cases of the novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) infections and more than 4 million deaths globally. Despite more than 90% of documented cases being classified as “recovered” from SARS-CoV-2 infection, a proportion of patients reported a wide variety of persisting symptoms after the initial onset or acute phase of the infection, often referred to as “Long Covid”. As data on the symptomatology of post-acute SARS-CoV-2 infection gradually becomes availa ble, there is an urgent need to organise and syn...
