The Efficiency and Toxicity Of Anlotinib in Combination With Docetaxel Followed by Epirubicin and Cyclophosphamide Regimen as Neoadjuvant Treatment in IIB to IIIA Triple Negative Breast Cancer: A Single-Arm, Multicenter, Open-Label, Phase II Study
CONCLUSION: The combination of anlotinib and EC-T chemotherapy demonstrated tolerable side effects in the neoadjuvant treatment of early TNBC. pCR was higher than what has been reported in previous clinical studies of chemotherapy alone. This study provides additional rationale for using anlotinib plus docetaxel-epirubicin-based chemotherapy regimen in patients with early-stage TNBCs.PMID:38670862 | DOI:10.1016/j.clbc.2024.01.018 (Source: Clinical Genitourinary Cancer)

Alginate/carboxymethyl chitosan core-shell microspheres co-loaded with docetaxel/doxorubicin reverse chemotherapy resistance in anaplastic thyroid carcinoma
CONCLUSION: A-DOX@C-DTX microspheres exhibited superior anti-tumor effects compared to free drug treatment both in vitro and in vivo, particularly against drug-resistant ATC cells. This improved therapeutic efficacy may be attributed to the enhanced drug uptake and reduced drug efflux in drug-resistant ATC cells facilitated by ALG/CMC microspheres.PMID:38661518 | DOI:10.1089/thy.2024.0023 (Source: Thyroid : official journal of the American Thyroid Association)

ELK3 destabilization by speckle-type POZ protein suppresses prostate cancer progression and docetaxel resistance
In this study, we found that SPOP and ELK3 are an interacting partner. The interaction between SPOP and ELK3 resulted in increased ELK3 ubiquitination and destruction, assisted by checkpoint kinase-mediated ELK3 phosphorylation. Notably, the modulation of SPOP-mediated ELK3 protein stability affected the c-Fos-induced cell proliferation and invasion of PCa cells. The clinical involvement of the SPOP-ELK3 axis in PCa development was confirmed by an immunohistochemical assay on 123 PCa tissues, with an inverse correlation between increased ELK3 and decreased SPOP being present in ~80% of the specimens. This observation was s...

Network meta-analysis of combination strategies in metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer
This study compared different doublet and triplet therapies for efficacy and safety in metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC). PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library were comprehensively searched for eligible randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published from inception to October 2023. Interventions included abiraterone, apalutamide, enzalutamide, docetaxel, darolutamide, and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), either as doublet or triplet therapies. The outcomes examined were overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC)-free survival, time to symptomat...
