Skin-Directed Therapies in Mycosis Fungoides: An Update.

Mycosis fungoides (MF) is the most common subtype of cutaneous T cell lymphoma (CTCL), characterized by monoclonal proliferation of malignant T cells primarily involving the skin. The management of MF, especially in the early stages, involves skin-directed therapies (SDTs) to achieve disease control, alleviate symptoms, and enhance the quality of life (QoL). This review provides an updated overview of SDTs in MF treatment, including topical agents such as corticosteroids, retinoids, mechlorethamine, carmustine, imiquimod, as well as photodynamic therapy (PDT); phototherapy modalities including

Bispecific Antibodies for the Management of Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma.

Bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) are artificially engineered antibodies that can bind simultaneously to the CD3 subunit within the T-cell receptor complex and an antigen on tumor cells, leading to T-cell activation and tumor cell killing. BsAbs against BCMA or GPRC5D have shown impressive clinical activity in heavily pretreated patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM), with some agents having already received regulatory approval after the third (by the European Medicines Agency, EMA) or fourth (by the Food and Drug Administration, FDA) line of therapy; the results of early-phase

Chemokine-Directed Tumor Microenvironment Modulation in Cancer Immunotherapy.

Chemokines are a large family of small chemotactic cytokines that coordinates immune cell trafficking. In cancer, they have a pivotal role in the migration pattern of immune cells into the tumor, thereby shaping the tumor microenvironment immune profile, often towards a pro-tumorigenic state. Furthermore, chemokines can directly target non-immune cells in the tumor microenvironment, including cancer, stromal and vascular endothelial cells. As such, chemokines participate in several cancer development processes such as angiogenesis, metastasis, cancer cell proliferation, stemness and invasivene

Update on preclinical models of cancer therapy-related cardiac dysfunction: Challenges and perspectives. A scientific statement of the Heart Failure Association (HFA) of the ESC, the ESC Council of Cardio-Oncology, and the ESC Working Group on Cellular Biology of the Heart.

New anticancer therapies with potential cardiovascular side effects are continuously being introduced into clinical practice, with new and often unexpected toxicities becoming apparent only after clinical introduction. These unknown toxicities should be identified and understood beforehand to better prepare patients and physicians, enabling the implementation of effective treatments. Therefore, there is a crucial need for appropriate preclinical models to understand the biological basis of their cardiotoxicity. This scientific statement summarizes the preclinical models hitherto used, from in

Living with or beyond lymphoma: A rapid review of the unmet needs of lymphoma survivors.

ObjectiveTo establish an understanding of the unmet needs of people living with or beyond a lymphoma diagnosis. Survivors of lymphoma are at increased risk of unmet needs due to cancer, treatment-related toxicities and extended survivorship. Despite the rapidly growing numbers of lymphoma survivors, their needs and research priorities are underserved and undervalued, therefore left largely unaddressed.MethodsA rapid review method and reflexive thematic analysis approach assimilated current knowledge. Eligibility criteria included quantitative, qualitative, or mixed approaches employing cross-s

Primary hyperhidrosis: an updated review.

BACKGROUND: Hyperhidrosis (HH) is a condition characterized by excessive sweating beyond the physiological needs of thermoregulation. HH can be classified as primary (idiopathic) hyperhidrosis (PHH) or secondary hyperhidrosis (SHH), which is associated with underlying medical conditions, medications or systemic disorders. This narrative review provides an updated overview of PHH, with a focus on epidemiology, aetiopathogenesis, clinical manifestations, diagnostic approaches and current management strategies, particularly highlighting pharmacological and procedural treatment options. METHODS:

Bispecific antibody targets and therapies in multiple myeloma.

Recently, several bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) have been approved for the treatment of relapsed multiple myeloma (MM) after early phase trials in heavily pre-treated patients demonstrated high response rates and impressive progression-free survival with monotherapy. These BsAbs provide crucial treatment options for relapsed patients and challenging decisions for clinicians. Evidence on the optimal patient population, treatment sequence, and duration of these therapeutics is unknown and subject to active investigation. While rates of cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity appear to be low

Supportive care needs of adults living with a peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) at home: a qualitative content analysis.

BackgroundPeripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) are common vascular access devices inserted for adults undergoing intravenous treatment in the community setting. Individuals with a PICC report challenges understanding information and adapting to the device both practically and psychologically at home. There is a lack of research investigating the supportive care needs of individuals with a PICC to inform nursing assessment and the provision of additional supports they may require to successfully adapt to life with a PICC. The aim of this study was to identify the supportive care need

Оптимальный выбор способа управления лекарствами в отношении внутримышечной и подкожной инъекции.

Внутримышечное (IV), внутримышечное (IM) и подкожное (SC) three - наиболее часто используемые пути инъекции для лечения лекарств. Время от времени проводились сравнительные исследования СК по отношению к IV, IM по отношению к IV, или IM по сравнению с СК, и некоторые новые выводы совершенно отличаются от рекомендаций в отношении дозировки, описанных в предписаниях в отношении информации. Однако врачи, возможно, до сих пор не знают о таких новых фактах при выборе методов лечения.

(1) Background: Glioblastoma is the most frequent and lethal primary tumor of the central nervous system. Through many years, research has brought various advances in glioblastoma treatment. At this time, glioblastoma management is based on maximal safe surgical resection, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy with temozolomide. Recently, bevacizumab has been added to the treatment arsenal for the recurrent scenario. Nevertheless, patients with glioblastoma still have a poor prognosis. Therefore, many efforts are being made in different clinical research areas to find a new alternative to improve ove

Imiglucerase in the treatment of Gaucher disease: a history and perspective.

The scientific and therapeutic development of imiglucerase (Cerezyme(®)) by the Genzyme Corporation is a paradigm case for a critical examination of current trends in biotechnology. In this article the authors argue that contemporary interest in treatments for rare diseases by major pharmaceutical companies stems in large part from an exception among rarities: the astonishing commercial success of Cerezyme. The fortunes of the Genzyme Corporation, latterly acquired by global giant Sanofi SA, were founded on the evolution of a blockbuster therapy for a single but, as it turns out, propitious ul

Drug repurposing for breast cancer therapy: Old weapon for new battle.

Despite tremendous resources being invested in prevention and treatment, breast cancer remains a leading cause of cancer deaths in women globally. The available treatment modalities are very costly and produces severe side effects. Drug repurposing that relate to new uses for old drugs has emerged as a novel approach for drug development. Repositioning of old, clinically approved, off patent non-cancer drugs with known targets, into newer indication is like using old weapons for new battle. The advances in genomics, proteomics and information computational biology has facilitated the process o

Interplay of non-coding RNAs and approved antimetabolites such as gemcitabine and pemetrexed in mesothelioma.

Gemcitabine and pemetrexed are clinically approved antimetabolites for the therapy of mesothelioma diseases. These drugs are often applied in combination with platinum complexes and other drugs. The activity of antimetabolites depended on the expression levels of certain non-coding RNAs, in particular, of small microRNAs (miRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs). The development of tumor resistance towards antimetabolites was regulated by non-coding RNAs. An overview of the interplay between gemcitabine/pemetrexed antimetabolites and non-coding RNAs in mesothelioma is provided. Further to th
