Enhancing medication adherence with blister-packed oral oncolytics: A case example in chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

IntroductionMedication nonadherence is a prevalent issue in the oncology population and can be costly on the healthcare system while leading to worsened outcomes, including increased mortality. One intervention that has been shown to help promote medication adherence to oral therapies for chronic conditions is blister-packaging. However, no literature is available assessing the potential impact of blister-packaging in oncology. Therefore, we aimed to quantify the impact of blister-packaging oral oncolytics on medication adherence and healthcare costs.MethodsAn economic model was designed to as

Oral mucositis induced by anticancer treatments: physiopathology and treatments.

Oral mucositis is a frequent and devastating side effect of anticancer treatments. It impairs the patient's quality of life and also can be life threatening because severe infections and delayed or incomplete anticancer treatments may result. This problem has been largely overlooked and underestimated in the past. However, recently studies have been performed to precisely identify the epidemiology, cost, consequences, physiopathology, and treatments of oral mucositis. Clinical guidelines have recently been published to help the daily management of this frequent complication. In addition, some

LAK to CIK continuum in glioma immunotherapy: a systematic review of efficacy and safety outcomes.

BACKGROUND: Immunotherapy against gliomas, including Glioblastoma multiform (GBM) as the most lethal type combines innate and adaptive immune responses to strengthen systemic and host-specific immunity. Among various cell-based immunotherapies, activated cell therapies utilize autologous immune cells activated ex vivo-such as lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cells, cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells, and cytotoxic T lymphocytes. Despite challenges, LAK laid the groundwork for further progress in activated killer cell therapies, such as CIK cells. CIK cells with their MHC-independent lytic ac

Aptamers and Antisense Oligonucleotides for Diagnosis and Treatment of Hematological Diseases.

Aptamers or chemical antibodies are single-stranded DNA or RNA oligonucleotides that bind proteins and small molecules with high affinity and specificity by recognizing tertiary or quaternary structures as antibodies. Aptamers can be easily produced in vitro through a process known as systemic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX) or a cell-based SELEX procedure. Aptamers and modified aptamers, such as slow, off-rate, modified aptamers (SOMAmers), can bind to target molecules with less polar and more hydrophobic interactions showing slower dissociation rates, higher stability,

Different origin-derived exosomes and their clinical advantages in cancer therapy.

Exosomes, as a class of small extracellular vesicles closely related to the biological behavior of various types of tumors, are currently attracting research attention in cancer diagnosis and treatment. Regarding cancer diagnosis, the stability of their membrane structure and their wide distribution in body fluids render exosomes promising biomarkers. It is expected that exosome-based liquid biopsy will become an important tool for tumor diagnosis in the future. For cancer treatment, exosomes, as the "golden communicators" between cells, can be designed to deliver different drugs, aiming to ac

Burning Issues/Hot Topics: The Charcot Foot.

Charcot neuro-osteoarthropathy remains one of the most serious complications of diabetic neuropathy, with the potential for rapid progression to deformity, ulceration and limb-threatening outcomes. The earliest signs and symptoms are often subtle and easily missed, yet early recognition provides a narrow window of opportunity to prevent irreversible structural change. Contemporary diagnostic pathways are underpinned by close clinical observation and correlation of bedside findings with detailed imaging analysis, enabling earlier identification of active disease before collapse occurs. This art

Tumor heterogeneity as a driver of drug resistance and its implications for personalized therapy.

Tumors are highly dynamic diseases characterized by significant heterogeneity. They consist of multiple cellular populations with distinct properties that respond differently to therapeutic pressure. This heterogeneity may arise from spatial variation across tumor regions (spatial heterogeneity) as well as from temporal changes during tumor evolution and treatment (temporal heterogeneity). As a consequence, drug-resistant subclones often emerge under therapy and contribute to treatment failure. Advances in single-cell and spatial multi-omics technologies enable precise quantification of tumor

Infarcts and ischemia in the abdomen: an imaging perspective with an emphasis on cross-sectional imaging findings.

Infarcts and ischemia of abdominal organs may present with acute abdominal pain, and early diagnosis is crucial to prevent morbidity and mortality. Unfortunately, some of these patients present in poor clinical conditions to the emergency department, and imaging specialists are crucial for optimal outcomes. Although the radiological diagnosis of abdominal infarcts is often straightforward, it is vital to use the appropriate imaging modalities and correct imaging techniques for their detection. Additionally, some non-infarct-related abdominal pathologies may mimic infarcts, cause diagnostic con

Pharmacist-led interventions in hematological malignancies: a systematic review of clinical, process and economic outcomes.

BackgroundPharmacist-led interventions are increasingly integrated into hematology-oncology care to address complex pharmacotherapy and medication safety challenges. However, their impact within hematological malignancies has not been comprehensively synthesized across clinical, process-related, and economic domains.MethodsA systematic review was conducted to evaluate pharmacist-led interventions in patients with hematological malignancies across inpatient and outpatient settings. Thirty-three studies were included. Owing to substantial heterogeneity in study design, interventions, and outcome

Mechanisms and Functions of γδ T Cells in Tumor Cell Recognition.

γδ T cells are among the first line of defense in the immune system, playing a crucial role in bridging innate and adaptive immunity. Although γδ T cells are crucial for tumor immune surveillance, the complete mechanism by which γδ T cell receptors identify molecular targets in target cells remains unknown. Target cells can produce phosphoantigens (PAgs) via the mevalonate pathway or the methylerythritol phosphate pathway. The BTN3A1-BTN2A1 complex undergoes conformational changes in its extracellular domains upon binding to PAgs, leading to Vγ9Vδ2 T cell recognition. However, the structural b

mRNA Vaccines: Current Applications and Future Directions.

Messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines, as a novel class of biotherapeutics, leverage mRNA technology to instruct cells to produce specific antigens, thereby inducing an immune response. In recent years, significant progress has been made in applying these vaccines to infectious disease prevention and cancer treatment. Compared with traditional vaccines, mRNA vaccines offer high programmability, as well as greatly enhanced stability and immunogenicity, achieved through nucleotide modifications and advanced delivery systems such as lipid nanoparticles. However, many challenges remain in the design and d

Управление неблагоприятными событиями, связанными с комбинациями на основе помалидомида у пациентов с повторной/редактируемой множественной миеломой.

Многоагентные режимы с иммуномодуляционными (IMID) агентами, такими, как палидомид, линалидомид и помалидомид, стали предпочтительным стандартом лечения пациентов с множественной миеломой (MM), что позволило улучшить показатели выживания. В настоящее время существуют three Агенты IMID, утвержденные для лечения MM: талидомид, линалидомид и помалидомид. Леналидомид обычно используется для лечения пациентов с недавно поставленным диагнозом MM, а также для лечения после пересадки стволовых клеток или после рецидива заболевания.

CAR T-cell therapy in autoimmune diseases: a promising frontier on the horizon.

Although current treatments for autoimmune diseases can effectively control symptoms, they rarely lead to cures and often require lifelong use, accompanied by considerable adverse effects. This emphasizes the urgent need for more targeted therapies that offer long-term efficacy and curative potential. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy presents a promising option by specifically targeting and eliminating autoreactive B cells, with the potential to reset the patient's immune system and promote long-term immune balance. Originally developed for treating hematologic malignancies, wher

Rapid Progress in Immunotherapies for Multiple Myeloma: An Updated Comprehensive Review.

Despite rapid advances in treatment approaches of multiple myeloma (MM) over the last two decades via proteasome inhibitors (PIs), immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs), and monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), their efficacies are limited. MM still remains incurable, and the majority of patients shortly relapse and eventually become refractory to existing therapies due to the genetic heterogeneity and clonal evolution. Therefore, the development of novel therapeutic strategies with different mechanisms of action represents an unmet need to achieve a deep and highly durable response as well as to improve pa

The impact of the gut microbiome on tumor immunotherapy: from mechanism to application strategies.

Immunotherapy is one of the fastest developing areas in the field of oncology. Many immunological treatment strategies for refractory tumors have been approved and marketed. Nevertheless, much clinical and preclinical experimental evidence has shown that the efficacy of immunotherapy in tumor treatment varies markedly among individuals. The commensal microbiome mainly colonizes the intestinal lumen in humans, is affected by a variety of factors and exhibits individual variation. Moreover, the gut is considered the largest immune organ of the body due to its influence on the immune system. In t

Decoding the mechanisms underlying breast cancer brain metastasis: paving the way for precision therapeutics.

The development of brain metastasis is a major cause of significantly reduced survival in breast cancer patients. The initiation and progression of breast cancer brain metastasis (BCBM) involve multiple distinct molecular pathways and reprogramming of the tumor microenvironment (TME). This review systematically summarizes key mechanisms underlying BCBM, including epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling, and the spatiotemporal dynamics of metabolic reprogramming regulated by critical signaling pathways during brain colonization. In particular, we highlight
