Phase 2 Open-Label Study of Sacituzumab Govitecan as Second-Line Therapy in Patients With Extensive-Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer: Results From TROPiCS-03.

Introduction: The phase 2 TROPiCS-03 study evaluated the efficacy/safety of sacituzumab govitecan (SG) as second-line treatment in patients with previously treated extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC).

Methods: TROPiCS-03 (NCT03964727) is a multicohort, open-label, phase 2 basket study in solid tumors, including ES-SCLC. Adults with ES-SCLC that progressed after one prior line of platinum-based chemotherapy and anti-programmed death-(ligand) 1 (PD-[L]1) therapy received SG 10 mg/kg on days 1 and 8 of a 21-day cycle.

Description of tissue profiles, thalamic location, and recommended penetrating captive bolt placement in cadaver heads from domesticated 24- to 48-mo-old male yaks ().

Yaks are a domesticated species utilized for meat, fiber, and transportation in many countries. In the United States, yak meat is growing in popularity due to its classification as a "healthy" meat. Penetrating captive bolt (PCB) is an approved method of preslaughter stunning and euthanasia for cattle.

A programmable environment for shape optimization and shapeshifting problems.

Soft materials underpin many domains of science and engineering, including soft robotics, structured fluids, and biological and particulate media. In response to applied mechanical, electromagnetic or chemical stimuli, such materials typically change shape, often dramatically. Predicting their structure is of great interest to facilitate design and mechanistic understanding, and can be cast as an optimization problem where a given energy function describing the physics of the material is minimized with respect to the shape of the domain and additional fields.

Is trauma associated with plant-based diet choice?

Examinations of links between plant-based diets (e.g., vegetarian and vegan diets) and indices of physical and mental health have received increased attention in the scientific literature in recent years.

Unravelling the cardio-renal-metabolic-foot connection in people with diabetes-related foot ulceration: a narrative review.

Diabetes-related foot ulceration (DFU), a serious but preventable complication of diabetes, is a leading cause of hospitalisation, lower extremity amputation and disability worldwide. People with DFU have a greater burden of cardiovascular risk factors, heart failure and chronic kidney disease, resulting in over two-fold higher risk of cardiovascular death compared with people with diabetes without DFU. Here, we propose a "cardio-renal-metabolic-foot" connection in people with diabetes based on shared pathophysiological mechanisms linking DFU with cardiovascular and renal disease.
