Article Synopsis
- Researchers explored how blood type affects Covid-19 risk, focusing on the ABO blood group, particularly finding that type O individuals may have lower susceptibility.
- They analyzed 290 Covid-19 patients and 276 asymptomatic controls to compare levels of natural ABO antibodies, discovering that patients had lower antibody counts.
- The study concluded that lower levels of ABO antibodies in Covid-19 patients suggest a potential increased risk of infection, especially for those with lower antibody levels.
Background: Most patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) progress after chemotherapy. Cabazitaxel (XRP6258) is a new taxoid that is active in chemotherapy-resistant tumour cell lines. The objectives of this phase I/II study were to assess the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), safety profile, pharmacokinetics, and activity of cabazitaxel plus capecitabine in patients with MBC who had been previously treated with taxanes and anthracyclines.
