Efficacy and safety of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors plus chemotherapy for triple-negative breast cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Objective: The results of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor combined with chemotherapy for TNBC are controversial. Therefore, a meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety after PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors plus chemotherapy in TNBC patients.

Methods: We systematically searched seven databases and several mainly oncology conferences for prospective clinical trials of chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy to treat TNBC, and we included pathologic complete response (PCR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and adverse effects as outcome indicators of the study.

Indicator Regularized Non-Negative Matrix Factorization Method-Based Drug Repurposing for COVID-19.

A novel coronavirus, named COVID-19, has become one of the most prevalent and severe infectious diseases in human history. Currently, there are only very few vaccines and therapeutic drugs against COVID-19, and their efficacies are yet to be tested. Drug repurposing aims to explore new applications of approved drugs, which can significantly reduce time and cost compared with drug discovery.
