Purpose This multinational study evaluated the antitumor activity of nivolumab in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Tumor and plasma-based biomarkers were investigated an exploratory analysis. Patients Methods with multiply pretreated recurrent or metastatic NPC treated until disease progression. The primary end point was objective response rate (ORR) secondary points included survival toxicity. expression programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) human leukocyte antigens A B archived tumors plasma...
Lineage-ambiguous leukemias are high-risk malignancies of poorly understood genetic basis. Here, we describe a distinct subgroup acute leukemia with expression myeloid, T lymphoid, and stem cell markers driven by aberrant allele-specific deregulation BCL11B, master transcription factor responsible for thymic T-lineage commitment specification. Mechanistically, this was chromosomal rearrangements that juxtapose BCL11B to superenhancers active in hematopoietic progenitors, or focal...
7006 Background: Older adult patients (pts) with Philadelphia-chromosome-negative (Ph-) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) have poor survival chemotherapy. The α-CD22 Ab-drug conjugate inotuzumab ozogamicin (InO) and α-CD19/CD3 T-cell engager blinatumomab (blina) were each superior to chemotherapy in Phase III studies relapsed/refractory B-ALL. Because InO induces high CR rates blina can induce durable remissions low burden disease, we conducted a II trial of induction then for older adults...
Mitochondria are crucial to the function of renal tubular cells, and their dynamic perturbation in many aspects is an important mechanism diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Single-nucleus RNA sequencing (snRNA-seq) technology a high-throughput analysis technique for at level single cell nucleus. Here, our DKD mouse single-cell conveys more comprehensive mitochondrial profile, which helps us further understand therapeutic response this unique organelle family drugs. After high fat diet (HFD),...
Abstract Background Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in adults is aggressive, with long‐term outcomes impacted by treatment resistance and toxicity. CD52 expressed most cases of B‐ T‐lineage ALL. Alemtuzumab, a humanized immunoglobulin G1 monoclonal antibody that targets CD52, was identified as potential agent to improve efficacy without increasing Methods In this phase 1/2 study (Cancer Leukemia Group B [CALGB] 10102, NCT00061945), course single‐agent alemtuzumab intercalated into CALGB...

Background: Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) has poor prognosis with median overall survival (OS) of ∼6 months. We previously reported high PD-1/PDL-1 staining in ATC, raising the possibility productive application immunotherapeutic pembrolizumab. However, having found pembrolizumab to anecdotally have limited single-agent activity we sought alternatively define whether might synergistically combine chemoradiotherapy as initial ATC therapy. Methods: An investigator-initiated therapeutic phase...
Adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with acute lymphoblastic leukemia have improved outcomes when treated pediatric-inspired regimens. CALGB 10403 was the largest prospective study to evaluate feasibility of using a pediatric regimen in AYAs up 40 years age. This article presents toxicity events observed compares these toxicities vs those among on same arm companion Children's Oncology Group (COG) AALL0232 study. Toxicities were similar COG AALL0232. Some grade 3 4 adverse more often...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains one of the deadliest malignancies worldwide. One major obstacle to treatment is a lack effective molecular-targeted therapies. In this study, we find that EphA2 expression and signaling are enriched in human HCC associated with poor prognosis. Loss suppresses initiation growth both vitro vivo. Furthermore, CRISPR/CAS9-mediated inhibition significantly delays tumor development genetically engineered murine model HCC. Mechanistically, discover targeting...
Summary The landscape of oncology drug development has recently changed with the emergence molecularly targeted agents and immunotherapies. These new therapeutic appear more likely to induce multiple low or moderate grade toxicities rather than dose limiting toxicities. Various model-based finding designs toxicity severity scoring systems have been proposed account for grades, but they are difficult implement because use complicated dose–toxicity models requirement refit model at each...
Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is a validated target for molecular diagnostics and targeted radionuclide therapy. Our purpose was to evaluate PSMA expression in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), hepatic adenoma (HCA); investigate the genetic pathways HCC associated with expression; detection rate
Background: Bimiralisib is a pan-PI3K/mTOR inhibitor demonstrating antitumor efficacy in preclinical models. The objectives of this study were to identify maximum tolerated dose (MTD), pharmacokinetics (PK), dosing schedule, and adverse events (AEs) patients with advanced solid tumors. Patients Methods: received oral bimiralisib determine the MTD one continuous (once daily) two intermittent schedules (A: Days 1, 2 weekly; B: 4 weekly) until progression or unacceptable AEs occurred. Results:...
BACKGROUND: To prevent transmission, some pediatric units require clinicians to wear gloves for all patient contacts during RSV season. We sought assess whether a mandatory gloving policy reduced the risk of other health care–acquired infections (HAIs). METHODS: This retrospective cohort study included patients admitted tertiary care center between 2002 and 2010. Poisson regression models were used measure association HAI incidence. Autoregressive adjust time correlation. RESULTS: During...

Abstract Background Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels are used in conjunction with imaging to monitor response systemic therapy metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). We sought identify a threshold for CEA change from baseline predict progressive disease (PD) mCRC patients receiving first-line therapy. Methods Patients trials collected the ARCAD database were included if was at least 10 ng/mL and repeat available within 14 days of first restaging scan. Optimal cutoffs identified by...
Abstract Background Unplanned subgroup analyses from several studies have suggested primary tumor sidedness (PTS) as a potential prognostic and predictive parameter in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). We aimed to investigate the impact of PTS on outcomes mCRC patients. Methods data 9277 patients 12 first-line randomized trials ARCAD database were pooled. Overall survival (OS) progression-free (PFS) assessed using Kaplan-Meier Cox models adjusting for age, sex, performance status, prior...
Abstract Overexpression of B-cell leukemia/lymphoma 2 (BCL2) renders acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells resistant to chemotherapy and has been associated with unfavorable outcomes. Oblimersen (G3139) is a phosphorothioate 18-mer antisense oligonucleotide directed against the first 6 BCL2 codons. In phase 1 study AML patients treated G3139, cytarabine, daunorubicin induction cytarabine consolidation, no antisense-related toxicity was reported, downregulation occurred in achieving complete...
