We report the case of a patient with suspected ulcerating necrotizing herpetic stromal keratitis who showed no improvement despite intensive (amongst others antiherpetic) topical and systemic therapy. The ulcer healed following amniotic membrane transplantation and penetrating excimer laser keratoplasty was performed to improve visual acuity. The excision showed deep stromal proof of herpes simplex virus (HSV) type 1 antigens.

Purpose: Orvacabtagene autoleucel (orva-cel; JCARH125), a CAR T-cell therapy targeting B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA), was evaluated in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) patients in the EVOLVE phase 1/2 study (NCT03430011). We applied a modified piecewise model to characterize orva-cel transgene kinetics and assessed the impact of various covariates on its pharmacokinetics (PK).
Experimental Design: The population PK analysis included 159 patients from the EVOLVE study.

Purpose: Postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) is a type of refractory neuropathic pain that causes significant suffering, disability, economic loss, and medical burden. In this study, we aim to evaluate the efficacy and safety of interferon (IFN)-α1b injection into the intervertebral foramen of patients with PHN.
Patients And Methods: This is a study protocol for a randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled multicenter clinical trial.

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common subtype of B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), up to 30%-40% of patients will relapse and 10%-15% of patients have primary refractory disease, so exploring new treatment options is necessary. Ferroptosis is a non-apoptotic cell death mode discovered in recent years. Its occurrence pathway plays an essential impact on the therapeutic effect of tumors.

We report the case of a 37-year-old male patient diagnosed with moderate left-sided ulcerative colitis (UC). Initial therapy with 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) was terminated within days due to exacerbation of symptoms, leading to a diagnosis of 5-ASA intolerance. Although induction of remission was achieved with prednisolone, the patient developed steroid dependency.
