Purpose: RPI.4610 (ANGIOZYME) is a chemically stabilized ribozyme targeting vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of RPI.4610 in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel in patients with advanced solid tumors.

Methods: The study used a sequential treatment design evaluating a single dose level for all three drugs: paclitaxel 175 mg m-2 and carboplatin AUC=6 on day 1 of a 21-day cycle, and RPI.4610 100 mg m-2 day-1 beginning on day 8 and continuing daily thereafter. Pharmacokinetic samples were drawn on day 1 of courses 1 (chemotherapy alone) and 2 (chemotherapy+RPI.4610), and on day 8 of course 1 (RPI.4610 alone). Ratios were generated by comparing the pharmacokinetic parameters for the combination of carboplatin with paclitaxel when administered alone or together with RPI.4610.

Results: Twelve patients were enrolled in this trial and received two to six courses of treatment each. The most common grade 3-4 toxicities were neutropenia (three patients), thrombocytopenia (three patients), pain (three patients), anemia (two patients) and fatigue (two patients). The ratio of the mean maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) for carboplatin when administered with paclitaxel alone versus when administered with paclitaxel and RPI.4610 was 1.07 (90% confidence interval, 0.77-1.37). Similarly, the ratio of the mean AUC0-last for carboplatin was 1.04 (0.73-1.35). For paclitaxel the ratio of the mean Cmax when administered with carboplatin alone versus with carboplatin and RPI.4610 was 1.17 (1.03-1.31), and the ratio of the mean AUC0-last was 1.17 (1.04-1.30). Objective tumor responses were observed and included one patient with a complete response (bladder cancer) and one patient with a partial response (esophageal cancer).

Conclusions: These results indicate that RPI.4610, carboplatin, and paclitaxel can be administered safely in combination without substantial pharmacokinetic interactions.

A 50-year-old woman with a history of adult granulosa cell tumor (AGCT) of the right ovary was under follow-up after undergoing several surgeries, including a total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. She was initially diagnosed eight years ago and remained disease-free for 52 months. However, she later experienced a recurrence, indicated by elevated inhibin B levels (58 ng/mL) and the presence of peritoneal soft tissue tumors.

This study aimed to generate Car- and Pac-resistant cell lines from the human lung adenocarcinoma H1792 cell line, designated as H1792/Car and H1792/Pac, and perform transcriptome sequencing to identify potential targets. Common differentially expressed genes (Co-DEGs) in both resistant cell lines were identified, followed by hub gene identification. Online validation was conducted through GEPIA and Kaplan-Meier Plotter platforms, with experimental validation performed using real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR).

Concurrent mutations in tumor protein p53 (TP53) or Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1-nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2-pathway components are linked to poor outcomes in epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but the impact of triple mutations remains unclear. We report a case of EGFR-, TP53-, and Cullin 3 (CUL3)-mutant NSCLC in a 43-year-old woman with widespread metastases at diagnosis, including those in the contralateral lung, distant lymph nodes, pericardium, liver, bones, left adrenal gland, and brain. She received osimertinib as first-line therapy, but pericardial effusion and liver metastases progressed rapidly over 3 months, and she was switched to carboplatin and pemetrexed.

Department of Gynecology, Rizhao People's Hospital, Rizhao, Shandong Province, 276800, People's Republic of China.

Purpose: Ovarian mature cystic teratoma (MCT) is the most common ovarian tumor, and only a small fraction undergoes malignant transformation. The most prevalent malignant type of the ovary is squamous cell carcinoma, followed by adenocarcinoma. However, ruptured ovarian mature cystic teratoma with adenocarcinoma transformation is extremely rare.

Introduction: Neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy has achieved overall survival (OS) benefit for patients with resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Here, we present outcomes after 3 years of follow-up from the first reported study of neoadjuvant atezolizumab+chemotherapy.

Methods: This open-label, multicenter single-arm investigator-initiated phase II study conducted at three US hospitals tested up to four cycles of atezolizumab, carboplatin, and nab-paclitaxel prior to surgery.
