Article Synopsis
  • The DESTINY-Breast12 study is the largest prospective trial examining the effectiveness of trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) in patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer, including those with brain metastases (BMs).
  • In this study, T-DXd showed promising results, with a 12-month progression-free survival (PFS) of 61.6% for patients with BMs and an objective response rate (ORR) of 62.7% for those without BMs.
  • Adverse events were observed in both cohorts, with 51% of patients with BMs and 49% of those without experiencing grade 3 or higher side effects, indicating the need for careful monitoring

Acalabrutinib is a Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor approved to treat adults with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, small lymphocytic lymphoma, or previously treated mantle cell lymphoma. As the bioavailability of the acalabrutinib capsule (AC) depends on gastric pH for solubility and is impaired by acid-suppressing therapies, coadministration with proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs) is not recommended. Three studies in healthy subjects (N = 30, N = 66, N = 20) evaluated the pharmacokinetics (PKs), pharmacodynamics (PDs), safety, and tolerability of acalabrutinib maleate tablet (AT) formulated with pH-independent release.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examines the cardiovascular (CV) toxicities associated with the BTK inhibitor acalabrutinib in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), particularly in comparison to ibrutinib, which has notable CV side effects.
  • A total of 762 patients undergoing acalabrutinib treatment reported a low incidence of cardiac adverse events (AEs), with only 17% experiencing any grade of cardiac issues, primarily atrial fibrillation or flutter.
  • Most patients with these AEs had existing CV risk factors, and hypertension was noted in 9% of participants, but no severe cases led to treatment discontinuation or sudden cardiac deaths.

Background: Moxetumomab pasudotox is a recombinant CD22-targeting immunotoxin. Here, we present the long-term follow-up analysis of the pivotal, multicenter, open-label trial (NCT01829711) of moxetumomab pasudotox in patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) hairy cell leukemia (HCL).

Methods: Eligible patients had received ≥ 2 prior systemic therapies, including ≥ 2 purine nucleoside analogs (PNAs), or ≥ 1 PNA followed by rituximab or a BRAF inhibitor.

Background: Elucidation of early life factors is critical to understand the development of allergic diseases, especially those manifesting in early life such as food allergies and atopic dermatitis. Cord blood IgE (CBIgE) is a recognized risk factor for the subsequent development of allergic diseases. In contrast with numerous genetic studies of total serum IgE in children and adults, limited genetic studies on CBIgE have been conducted.

A number of studies have linked obesity with asthma in adults and children. Few longitudinal studies have evaluated the effect of maternal pre-pregnancy obesity on either asthma or early childhood respiratory morbidity, and these have not been in urban, nonwhite populations. We sought to determine whether pre-pregnancy obesity was associated with recurrent wheezing in an urban, nonwhite population.

Pharmacogenetic studies in DNA repair pathway have consistently demonstrated correlations between the XRCC1 Arg399Gln, XPD Lys751Gln and XPD Asp312Gln genotypes, previously associated with suboptimal DNA repair, and differential cancer treatment outcomes. We evaluated these polymorphisms and XPD haplotypes in adult de novo (n=214) and secondary (n=79) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients treated with cytarabine and anthracycline chemotherapy. Genotyping was performed by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry.
