Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have emerged as a transformative modality in the treatment of solid tumors. YL201, a novel B7H3-targeting ADC, leverages a tumor microenvironment activable linker-payload platform, coupled with a novel topoisomerase 1 inhibitor via a protease-cleavable linker. Here we report the findings from a large-scale, global, multicenter, phase 1 trial evaluating the safety, pharmacokinetics and preliminary efficacy of YL201 in patients with advanced solid tumors refractory to standard therapies.

Materials And Methods: Eligible patients with BM from solid tumors were randomized at a 1:1 ratio to receive 120 mg of LY01011 or 120 mg of denosumab subcutaneously every four weeks during a 12-week double-blind treatment period, and then all enrolled patients continued to receive LY01011 until week 53.
Nocardiosis caused by is exceptionally rare and characterized by a high mortality rate. It typically affects immunocompromised patients, resulting in severe pulmonary or disseminated infections, and is notorious for abscess formation. Empyema resulting from nocardiosis is even less common.

This study examines the influence of dietary risk factors across various populations and socioeconomic groups.
Methods: Utilizing the 2021 GBD data, we analyzed age-standardized CKD-T2DM metrics-including mortality, disability-adjusted life years (DALY), and age-standardized rates (ASR)-stratified by age, gender, and region.

Metabolic syndrome-related diseases frequently involve disturbances in skeletal muscle lipid metabolism. The accumulation of lipid metabolites, lipid-induced mitochondrial stress in skeletal muscle cells, as well as the inflammation of adjacent adipose tissue, are associated with the development of insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction. Consequently, when antidiabetic medications are used to treat various chronic conditions related to hyperglycaemia, the impact on skeletal muscle lipid metabolism should not be overlooked.

This multicenter, single-arm phase 2b study assessed the efficacy and safety of glecirasib administered orally at 800 mg daily in patients with locally advanced or metastatic KRAS-mutated nonsmall-cell lung cancer. The primary endpoint was the objective response rate (ORR) assessed by an independent review committee (IRC).

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of toripalimab plus etoposide and platinum-based chemotherapy (EP) vs placebo plus EP as a first-line treatment for patients with ES-SCLC.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 randomized clinical trial (EXTENTORCH study) enrolled patients from September 26, 2019, to May 20, 2021, and was conducted at 49 sites in China.
Introduction: PEARL (NCT03003962) is an open-label, phase 3 study comparing first-line durvalumab monotherapy with chemotherapy in patients with metastatic NSCLC (mNSCLC [EGFR/ALK wild type]) with programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) tumor cell (TC) membrane expression status of 25% or higher. We report the final analysis of PEARL.
Methods: Adults (N = 669) with previously untreated stage IV mNSCLC were randomized (1:1) to durvalumab 20 mg/kg every four weeks or chemotherapy every three weeks for four to six cycles.
Background: Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in treating non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) exhibits a remarkable therapeutic efficacy. However, its effectiveness in overcoming resistance to epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) in patients with advanced EGFR mutations (EGFRm) NSCLC remains uncertain.
Objective: We aimed to analyze the effect of SBRT on patients with first-line EGFR-TKIs.
Background: Olgotrelvir is an oral antiviral with dual mechanisms of action targeting severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 main protease (i.e., M) and human cathepsin L.

Therefore, we aimed to explore the role and function of miRNAs and identify target genes regulating I/R.
Methods: We established a hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) model to detect differentially expressed miRNAs using high-throughput sequencing in rat myocardial cells.

Background: Although epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) have been proven a long-lasting treatment effect in pulmonary adenocarcinoma, most patients still progressed within one year due to the acquired resistance. Complex mutations of rare rare sites after acquiring resistance are rarely reported in pulmonary adenocarcinoma.
Case Presentation: A 62-year-old woman was diagnosed with pulmonary adenocarcinoma with stage IV.
Background: Third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKI) show good selectivity for classical EGFR mutated and EGFR T790M mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, resistance inevitably occurs to third-generation EGFR-TKI. This study describes the real-world characteristics, efficacy, and safety of treating post-progression NSCLC with 160 mg of furmonertinib (in combination with or without anti-angiogenic agents and chemotherapy) with third-generation EGFR-TKIs.
