Design of Disintegrable Nanoassemblies to Release Multiple Small-Sized Nanoparticles
Adv Drug Deliv Rev. 2023 Apr 27:114854. doi: 10.1016/j.addr.2023.114854. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe therapeutic and diagnostic effects of nanoparticles depend on the efficiency of their delivery to targeted tissues, such as tumors. The size of nanoparticles, among other characteristics, plays a crucial role in determining their tissue penetration and retention. Small nanoparticles may penetrate deeper into tumor parenchyma but are poorly retained, whereas large ones are distributed around tumor blood vessels. Thus, compared to smaller individual nanoparticles, assemblies of such nanoparticles due to their larger siz...

Cancers, Vol. 15, Pages 2316: Review of Cardiovascular Risk of Androgen Deprivation Therapy and the Influence of Race in Men with Prostate Cancer
K. Kelly Androgen deprivation therapy is the cornerstone of prostate cancer therapy. Recent studies have revealed an association between androgen deprivation therapy and cardiovascular adverse effects such as myocardial infarction and stroke. This review summarizes the available research on the cardiovascular risk of men using androgen deprivation therapy. We also discuss racial disparities surrounding both prostate cancer and cardiovascular disease, emphasizing the importance of biological/molecular and socioeconomic factors in assessing baseline risk in patients beginning androgen ablation. Based on the literature, ...

Risk of Cardiovascular Disease in Women With and Without Breast Cancer: The Pathways Heart Study
CONCLUSION: Women with BC had increased incidence of CVD events, CVD-related mortality, and all-cause mortality compared with women without BC, and risks varied according to the history of cancer treatment received. Studies are needed to determine how women who received BC treatment should be cared for to improve cardiovascular outcomes.PMID:35385342 | DOI:10.1200/JCO.21.01736

New ERLEADA ® (apalutamide) Analysis Demonstrates Rapid, Deep Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) Response in Patients with Metastatic Castration-Sensitive Prostate Cancer (mCSPC)
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 14, 2022 – The Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & Johnson today announced new real-world evidence data showing the initiation of ERLEADA® (apalutamide) results in high rates of rapid and deep prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response among patients with metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC). In a separate post-hoc analysis of the registrational Phase 3 SPARTAN and TITAN studies, rapid and deep PSA responses with ERLEADA® were associated with improvement in patient-reported outcomes (PROs) related to quality of life, physical wellbeing, pain, and fatigue intensity. The...

Baseline cardiovascular comorbidities, and the influence on cancer treatment decision-making in women with breast cancer
CONCLUSION: While recent guidelines recommend routine assessment of cardiovascular comorbidities in cancer patients prior to initiation of anticancer therapies, this study highlights the prevailing gap in knowledge on how such data may be used to optimise cancer treatment decision-making.PMID:34824616 | PMC:PMC8580595 | DOI:10.3332/ecancer.2021.1293
