Correlation of safety and efficacy of atezolizumab therapy across indications.

Background: The association between safety and efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors is known, but the correlation between severity and impact of specific organ involvement by immune-related adverse events (irAE) and cancer outcomes is poorly understood. Most irAEs are mild-to-moderate but severe irAEs may pose clinical management challenges and affect patient outcomes.

Methods: We assessed the association between irAE grade (G) and specific organ involvement with overall survival (OS) in 9,521 patients across 14 studies involving atezolizumab as mono (IO) or with chemo/targeted (C-IO) therapy as compared with chemo/targeted therapy (C) in advanced non-small cell lung, small-cell lung, renal cell, urothelial, and triple-negative breast cancers.

Simultaneous analysis of collinear neutron time-of-flight (nToF) traces applied to pulsed fusion experiment.

On pulsed fusion experiments, the neutron time of flight (nToF) diagnostic provides critical information on the fusion neutron energy spectrum. This work presents an analysis technique that uses two collinear nToF detectors, potentially to measure nuclear bang time and directional flow velocities. Two collinear detectors may be sufficient to disambiguate the contributions of nuclear bang time and directional flow velocities to the first moment of the neutron energy spectrum, providing an independent measurement of nuclear bang time.

Time-of-flight vs time-of-arrival in neutron spectroscopic measurements for high energy density plasmas.

The neutron time-of-flight (nToF) diagnostic technique has a lengthy history in Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) and High Energy Density (HED) Science experiments. Its initial utility resulted from the simple relationship between the full width half maximum of the fusion peak signal in a distant detector and the burn averaged conditions of an ideal plasma producing the flux [Lehner and Pohl, Z.
