Abstract Purpose: No standard treatment exists for platinum-refractory, recurrent/metastatic nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC). This phase II study (NCT02605967) evaluated progression-free survival (PFS) of spartalizumab, an antiprogrammed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) monoclonal antibody, versus chemotherapy, in NPC. Patients and Methods: with nonkeratinizing NPC who progressed on/after platinum-based chemotherapy were enrolled. Spartalizumab was dosed 400 mg once every 4 weeks, received per...
Abstract Purpose: HER2/neu is overexpressed in up to 30% of gastroesophageal adenocarcinomas (GEA) and linked poor prognosis. Recombinant mAbs treat HER2/neu-overexpressing cancers are effective with limitations, including resistance toxicity. Therefore, we developed a therapeutic B-cell epitope vaccine (IMU-131/HER-Vaxx) consisting three fused epitopes from the extracellular domain coupled CRM197 adjuvanted Montanide. This phase Ib study aimed evaluate optimal/safe dose leading...
BACKGROUND The combination of anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) therapy and chemotherapy is currently a preferred first-line treatment for patients with unresectable, RAS BRAF wild-type, left-sided metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Several studies have also demonstrated the benefit anti-EGFR in subsequent line settings this patient population. However, direct evidence comparing effectiveness frontline vs remains limited, leaving crucial gap guiding optimal strategies. AIM To...

Abstract Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most lethal diseases. Novel molecularly targeted therapies are urgently needed. Here, we extended our studies on role protein kinase D1 (PKD1) in PDAC cell lines. Given that Panc‐1 express moderate levels PKD1, used retroviral‐mediated gene transfer to create a derivative stably over‐expresses PKD1 (Panc‐1‐PKD1). Reciprocally, shRNA targeting Panc‐28 produce under‐expressing (Panc‐28‐shPKD1). Our results demonstrate Panc‐1‐PKD1...
