Postcancer rehabilitation: multidisciplinary exercise - programme organisation and feasibility.

Background: Although the benefit of supportive care in the postcancer period is now well demonstrated, its implementation in the patient journey remains challenging. This article describes the development, since 2015 and in routine care, of supportive postcancer care comprising a multidisciplinary rehabilitation programme (MRP) based on exercise for patients with early breast cancer.

Methods: As part of quality control, we reviewed all patient files since the programme was implemented.

Evaluation of the interest to combine a CD4 Th1-inducer cancer vaccine derived from telomerase and atezolizumab plus bevacizumab in unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma: a randomized non-comparative phase II study (TERTIO - PRODIGE 82).

Background: Several cancer immunotherapies that target the PD-L1/PD-1 pathway show promising clinical activity in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the standard of care in first-line treatment with atezolizumab (anti-PD-L1 therapy) in combination with bevacizumab is associated with a limited objective response rate. Telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) activation meets the criteria of oncogenic addiction in HCC and could be actionable therapeutic target and a relevant tumor antigen.

Safety, Immunogenicity, and 1-Year Efficacy of Universal Cancer Peptide-Based Vaccine in Patients With Refractory Advanced Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer: A Phase Ib/Phase IIa De-Escalation Study.

Purpose: Universal cancer peptide-based vaccine (UCPVax) is a therapeutic vaccine composed of two highly selected helper peptides to induce CD4+ T helper-1 response directed against telomerase. This phase Ib/IIa trial was designed to test the safety, immunogenicity, and efficacy of a three-dose schedule in patients with metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Patients And Methods: Patients with refractory NSCLC were assigned to receive three vaccination doses of UCPVax (0.

A Phase II Study Evaluating the Interest to Combine UCPVax, a Telomerase CD4 T1-Inducer Cancer Vaccine, and Atezolizumab for the Treatment of HPV Positive Cancers: VolATIL Study.

Background: There is a strong rational of using anti-programmed cell death protein-1 and its ligand (anti-PD-1/L1) antibodies in human papillomavirus (HPV)-induced cancers. However, anti-PD-1/L1 as monotherapy induces a limited number of objective responses. The development of novel combinations in order to improve the clinical efficacy of an anti-PD-1/L1 is therefore of interest.

Physicochemical and microbiological stability of insulin eye drops in an artificial tear vehicle used in the treatment of refractory neurotrophic keratopathy.

Neurotrophic keratopathy (NK) is a degenerative corneal disease with a loss of corneal sensitivity and impairment of corneal healing. Low dose insulin eyedrops have been shown to be a simple and effective treatment for refractory NK when the response to the usual treatment is incomplete. At present, there are no commercially available forms, and there is no data regarding the stability of these products as prepared by compounding pharmacies.
