Oral docetaxel plus encequidar – A pharmacokinetic model and evaluation against IV docetaxel
Conclusion: The study demonstrates the benefits of MIDD using oDox + E as a mot ivating example. A population pharmacokinetic model was developed for the total and unbound concentration in plasma of docetaxel after administration of IV docetaxel and oDox + E. The model was used to simulate oDox + E dose regimens which were compared to the current standard of care IV doc etaxel regimen. A GO / NO-GO framework was applied to determine whether oDox + E should progress to the next phase of drug development and whether any conditions should apply. A two or three-dose regimen of oDox + E at 600 mg was able ...

Reversal of cisplatin resistance in oral squamous cell carcinoma by piperlongumine loaded smart nanoparticles through inhibition of Hippo-YAP signaling pathway
Transl Res. 2024 Mar 16:S1931-5244(24)00049-5. doi: 10.1016/j.trsl.2024.03.004. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCisplatin alone or in combination with 5FU and docetaxel is the preferred chemotherapy regimen for advanced-stage OSCC patients. However, its use has been linked to recurrence and metastasis due to the development of drug resistance. Therefore, sensitization of cancer cells to conventional chemotherapeutics can be an effective strategy to overcome drug resistance. Piperlongumine, an alkaloid, have shown anticancer properties and sensitizes numerous neoplasms, but its effect on OSCC has not been explored. However, l...

Anlotinib plus docetaxel vs. docetaxel alone for advanced non-small-cell lung cancer patients who failed first-line treatment: A multicenter, randomized phase II trial
Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) represents the predominant form (85  %-90 %) of malignant lung neoplasms [1]. In 2020, lung cancer accounted for 2,206,771 new cases globally, leading to 1,796,144 fatalities [2,3]. At the dawn of the 21st century, chemotherapy remained the cornerstone of NSCLC treatment. However, the emergence of immunotherapy has introduced a pl ethora of innovative strategies for NSCLC management [4,5]. Currently, platinum-based chemotherapy, either alone or in combination with immunotherapy, is the endorsed first-line treatment paradigm for NSCLC [1,6,7]. (Source: Lung Cancer)

Comparison of Induction Cisplatin, Docetaxel, and 5-Fluorouracil to An Induction Platinum Doublet Regimen for Locally Advanced Human Papillomavirus-Associated Oropharyngeal Cancer
Management of locoregionally advanced (LA) human papillomavirus-positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HPV(+)OPSCC) often entails induction chemotherapy (IC) followed by definitive chemoradiation. The standard IC regimen for head and neck cancer, docetaxel, cisplatin, and 5-fluorouracil (TPF), has a high rate of toxicity. Due to the chemosensitivity of HPV(+)OPSCC, platinum-taxane doublets are often used as IC with less toxicity. No study to date has compared TPF to a platinum-taxane doublet IC regimen.

Randomized Phase 2 Trial of Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) and Concurrent and Adjuvant Cetuximab vs Cetuximab and Docetaxel in Recurrent, Previously Irradiated Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck
The treatment of recurrent head and neck cancer presents a significant challenge in previously irradiated patients. Therapeutic options in this patient population tend to be limited and are often associated with severe toxicity and decreased efficacy compared with front line therapies. Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is a salvage technique that provides highly conformal, ablative doses to tumor while minimizing exposure of the surrounding organs at risk. The precise role of concurrent systemic therapy with SBRT, though, remains unclear and is a topic of active investigation. (Source: International Journal of Rad...

Ductal, intraductal, and cribriform carcinoma of the prostate: Molecular characteristics and clinical management
Urol Oncol. 2024 Mar 13:S1078-1439(24)00053-X. doi: 10.1016/j.urolonc.2024.01.037. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTProstatic acinar adenocarcinoma accounts for approximately 95% of prostate cancer (CaP) cases. The remaining 5% of histologic subtypes of CaP are known to be more aggressive and have recently garnered substantial attention. These histologic subtypes - namely, prostatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA), intraductal carcinoma of the prostate (IDC-P), and cribriform carcinoma of the prostate (CC-P) - typically exhibit distinct growth characteristics, genomic features, and unique oncologic outcomes. For example, PTEN mut...
