Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
Otsuka Pharmaceutical Development & Commercialization Inc., Princeton, NJ, USA.
Background: Patients with dementia due to Alzheimer's disease may experience multiple different agitation symptoms - including excessive motor activity, verbal aggression, and physical aggression - at varying frequencies. The efficacy of brexpiprazole 2 or 3 mg/day on 29 individual agitation behaviors (Cohen-Mansfield Agitation Inventory [CMAI] items) was previously evaluated. Building upon that work, this post hoc analysis aimed to determine the efficacy of brexpiprazole on the same individual agitation behaviors, but specifically focusing on those patients who were frequently experiencing the behaviors at baseline.

Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
Otsuka Pharmaceutical Development & Commercialization Inc., Princeton, NJ, USA.
Background: Agitation associated with dementia due to Alzheimer's disease encompasses a wide range of behaviors, including excessive motor activity, verbal aggression, and physical aggression. In a survey of unpaid caregivers living with an individual with Alzheimer's disease, the "most bothersome" agitation behaviors (which may influence the decision to transfer the patient to long-term care) were: cursing or verbal aggression, spitting, repetitive sentences or questions, hitting, constant unwarranted requests for attention or help, trying to get to a different place, inappropriate dress or disrobing, pacing/aimless wandering, grabbing onto people, and throwing things. This post hoc analysis aimed to determine the efficacy of brexpiprazole on agitation in patients frequently exhibiting these bothersome behaviors.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), such as pembrolizumab, have revolutionized cancer treatment by enhancing the immune system's response to malignancies. However, these therapies are associated with immune-related adverse events (irAEs), including neuromuscular complications such as myasthenia gravis, myositis, and myocarditis. We describe two male patients, aged 67 and 68, with small cell and non-small cell lung cancers, who developed progressive neuromuscular symptoms, including ptosis, diplopia, and generalized weakness, after receiving pembrolizumab.

Background: Dysregulated energy metabolism has emerged as a defining hallmark of cancer, particularly evident in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Distinct from other breast cancer subtypes, TNBC exhibits heightened glycolysis and aggressiveness. However, the transcriptional mechanisms of aerobic glycolysis in TNBC remains poorly understood.

Department of Molecular Medicine, University of Pavia, Pavia, Italy.
Background: Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) is the leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Although immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have shown remarkable clinical efficacy, they can also induce a paradoxical cancer acceleration, known as hyperprogressive disease (HPD), whose causative mechanisms are still unclear.
Methods: This study investigated the mechanisms of ICI resistance in an HPD-NSCLC model.
