Assessment of the availability of repurposed orphan drugs in India.

India has a massive burden of rare diseases (RDs), with an estimated 96 million people living with RDs but limited options for treatment. Repurposing drugs used for other common conditions are essential alternative for RDs due to their cost-effectiveness and reduced timeline. India's patent regime prevents the evergreening of drugs, and a large generic manufacturing industry provides ample opportunity to explore the potential of repurposed drugs for treating RDs, known as repurposed orphan drugs (ROD). However, there is no portal or other source for information on orphan drugs in India. This s

The erectile and ejaculatory implications of the surgical management of rectal cancer.

Colorectal cancer is a significant cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Although advances in surgical technology and technique have decreased mortality rates, surviving patients often experience sexual dysfunction as a common complication. The development of the lower anterior resection has greatly decreased the use of the radical abdominoperineal resection surgery, but even the less radical surgery can result in sexual dysfunction, including erectile and ejaculatory dysfunction. Improving the knowledge of the underlying causes of sexual dysfunction in this context and developing effectiv

Experiences and preferences for psychosocial support: a qualitative study exploring the views of patients with chronic haematological cancers.

OBJECTIVES: Patients with chronic haematological cancers are often treated on a relapsing-remitting pathway, which may extend for many years. Such diagnoses are associated with uncertainties that often cause anxiety and distress, meaning patients (and families) are susceptible to potentially prolonged emotional difficulties, across the cancer journey. Experiences and preferences regarding psychosocial needs and support over time are relatively unexplored, which this study aimed to address. SETTING AND DESIGN: Set within the UK's Haematological Malignancy Research Network (an ongoing populatio

Associations of patient-generated subjective global assessment (PG-SGA) and NUTRISCORE with survival in gastric cancer patients: timing matters, a retrospective cohort study.

BackgroundThe timing of nutritional assessment may be important to treat cancer patients and predict their prognosis. This study examined whether Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment (PG-SGA) and NUTRISCORE scores were associated with survival among gastric cancer patients who underwent surgery and chemotherapy and whether the timing of the assessment after surgery mattered.MethodsA total of 952 gastric cancer patients (622 men and 330 women) were included in this retrospective cohort study. The PG-SGA and NUTRISCORE scores were calculated at 1 month (n = 952), 2 months (n = 657), an

Oncolytic virotherapy as emerging immunotherapeutic modality: potential of parvovirus h-1.

Human tumors develop multiple strategies to evade recognition and efficient suppression by the immune system. Therefore, a variety of immunotherapeutic strategies have been developed to reactivate and reorganize the human immune system. The recent development of new antibodies against immune check points may help to overcome the immune silencing induced by human tumors. Some of these antibodies have already been approved for treatment of various solid tumor entities. Interestingly, targeting antibodies may be combined with standard chemotherapy or radiation protocols. Furthermore, recent evide

Clinical Evidence Linkage From the American Society of Clinical Oncology 2024 Conference Poster Images Using Generative AI: Exploratory Observational Study.

BACKGROUND: Early-stage clinical findings often appear only as conference posters circulated on social media. Because posters rarely carry structured metadata, their citations are invisible to bibliometric and alternative metric tools, limiting real-time research discovery. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to determine whether a large language model can accurately extract citation data from clinical conference poster images shared on X (formerly known as Twitter) and link those data to the Dimensions and Altmetric databases. METHODS: Poster images associated with the 2024 American Society of Clin

The unseen symptom: A longitudinal qualitative interview study exploring mobility loss in people with advanced cancer.

BACKGROUND: Mobility loss is a common symptom in people with advanced cancer and is associated with reduced function and quality of life. While its physical consequences are well documented, less is known about how individuals and their families experience and adapt to these changes over time. AIM: To explore how individuals with advanced cancer and their caregivers experience and respond to mobility loss. DESIGN: A qualitative longitudinal study using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis. Participants completed two semi-structured interviews, with follow-ups prompted by changes in mobil

The oral cavity commonly displays mucosal lichenoid lesions and salivary gland dysfunction, which are considered different chronic Graft-versus-Host Disease (cGVHD) pathophysiology's. However, diagnostics of salivary gland (sg-)cGVHD are limited. The objectives of the current study are to evaluate the minor salivary gland (MSG) histo-immunopathological profiles post allogenic hematopoietic cell transplantation based on sg-cGVHD criteria. Design: Histopathology was characterized according to two published grading strategies. Firstly, the National Institute of Health (NIH) assessed peri-ductal/a

The Role of Natural Killer Cells as a Platform for Immunotherapy in Pediatric Cancers.

Purpose of reviewWe aim to review the most recent findings in the use of NK cells in childhood cancers.Recent findingsNatural killer cells are cytotoxic to tumor cells. In pediatric leukemias, adoptive transfer of NK cells can bridge children not in remission to transplant. Interleukins (IL2, IL15) can enhance NK cell function. NK cell-CAR therapy has advantages of shorter life span that lessens chronic toxicities, lower risk of graft versus host disease when using allogeneic cells, ability of NK cells to recognize tumor cells that have downregulated MHC to escape T cells, and possibly less li

Acquired Platythorax, or Anteroposterior Flattening of the Chest Wall, as a Late Complication of Cyclophosphamide Treatment for Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, Presenting in a Young Man with Respiratory Failure.

BACKGROUND Acquired platythorax, or flattening of the chest with a reduction in the anteroposterior (AP) diameter, is very rare and the prognosis depends on the degree of the deformity, respiratory function, and on any underlying disease. Drug-induced pulmonary fibrosis is associated with pulmonary hypoplasia. A case of acquired platythorax is presented in a young man previously treated with cyclophosphamide in childhood. CASE REPORT A 20-year-old man began to experience cough, chest pain, and mild exertional dyspnea. He was admitted to the hospital at 23 years of age with respiratory failure.

Effective use of intensive treatment against multiple myeloma of recipient origin after allogeneic transplantation for acute myeloid leukemia.

We describe here a 56-years -old woman cured in our institution for an acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and a monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS). In order to treat AML, underwent allogeneic stem cell transplantation in second complete remission. Four years after transplant, MGUS evolved to multiple myeloma and was intensively treated with "autologous" transplant after successful mobilization. This report illustrates: (i) a lack of efficacy of graft versus myeloma effect in a patient probably cured of AML by graft versus leukaemia effect; (ii) the ability to mobilize peripher
