Prospective Observational Study Revealing Early Pulmonary Function Changes Associated With Brigatinib Initiation.

Introduction: Symptomatic early onset pulmonary events (EOPEs) were observed in 3% to 6% of patients within 1 week of starting brigatinib at 90 mg daily for 7 days followed by 180 mg daily. We conducted a prospective observational cohort study to measure pulmonary function changes on initiating brigatinib.

Methods: Patients initiating brigatinib were eligible.

Evaluation of urinary protein precipitation protocols for the multidisciplinary approach to the study of chronic pelvic pain research network.

Standardization of sample collection, shipping, and storage has been a major focus of biorepositories servicing large, multi-institute studies. The standardization of total protein concentration measurements may also provide an important metric for characterizing biospecimens. The measurement of total protein concentration in urine is challenging because of widely variable sample dilutions obtained in the clinic and the lack of a reference matrix for use with a standard curve and blank subtraction.
