Article Synopsis
  • Study evaluated oral sulfate solution (OSS) vs polyethylene glycol (PEG) for bowel cleansing before pediatric colonoscopy in adolescents aged 12-17.
  • OSS achieved 71.4% successful cleansing compared to 79.0% for PEG, but the difference was not statistically significant.
  • OSS was better tolerated with fewer patients needing a nasogastric tube and reported higher acceptability compared to PEG, although PEG performed better for cleansing the right colon.

Steroid sulfatase (STS) inhibition may have a therapeutic role in suppression of endocrine-responsive breast cancer. This study aimed to determine the optimal biological dose and recommended dose (RD) of the STS inhibitor irosustat. A three-part, open-label, multicenter, dose escalation study of irosustat in estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer patients involved administration of a single dose of irosustat with a 7-day observation period; followed by a daily oral dose of irosustat for 28 days; and an extension phase, in which the daily oral dose of irosustat was continued at the discretion of the investigator and as long as the patient was benefitting from the treatment.
