Article Abstract
Objective: To examine the safety of intralesional injection of collagenase Clostridium histolyticum (CCH) for the treatment of Peyronie's disease (PD), using a pooled safety analysis of patients who received at least one dose of CCH in any of six clinical studies.
Patients And Methods: Patients from six clinical studies, including three randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies and three open-label safety and efficacy studies, were included if they had received at least one dose of 0.58 mg CCH. Adverse events (AEs), including treatment-emergent AEs, treatment-related AEs, and serious AEs (SAEs), were characterised. Potential immunogenicity-related AEs were evaluated through examination of increased anti-AUX-I and anti-AUX-II antibody levels, AEs, and reported terms possibly associated with immunological or hypersensitivity events.
Results: Overall, 85.8% of 1 044 pooled patients reported at least one treatment-related AE. The most frequently reported (≥25.0% of patients) treatment-related AEs included penile haematoma (82.7% had the verbatim 'penile bruising'), penile pain, and penile swelling. Most patients (75.2%) had mild- or moderate-severity treatment-related AEs, and 14.2% had no treatment-related AEs. Nine patients (0.9%) had treatment-related SAEs: five with penile haematoma and four with corporal rupture. There was no association between AEs and anti-AUX-I or anti-AUX-II antibody levels across treatment cycles, and no systemic hypersensitivity reactions occurred.
Conclusions: This pooled safety analysis shows that although non-serious and serious treatment-related AEs can occur after CCH treatment for PD, most were non-serious and the SAEs were manageable. Providers should be prepared to manage possible SAEs.

The efficacy and safety of anlotinib plus PD-1 inhibitor in locally advanced/metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients who progressed on prior immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs): a retrospective real-world study (NCT 04984096).

Background: Several studies have shown that combining immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) with antiangiogenic tyrosine kinase inhibitors is effective for solid tumors, including esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). However, most of these studies were focused on immunotherapy-naive patients. This retrospective real-world study offers insights into the efficacy and safety of combining anlotinib with ICIs in locally advanced/metastatic ESCC patients who progressed on prior ICI.

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a complex hematological malignancy of clonal plasma cells driven by alterations to the chromosomal material leading to uncontrolled proliferation in the bone marrow. Ethnic and racial disparities persist in the prevalence, diagnosis, management, and outcomes of MM. These disparities are multifaceted and intersect with various factors, including demographics, geography, socioeconomic status, genetics, and access to healthcare.

Background: Programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) inhibitors are commonly used worldwide for the management of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, it remains unclear whether pembrolizumab and sintilimab, two of the most widely used PD-1 inhibitors in China, have significantly different effects on patients with NSCLC. A multicenter retrospective cohort study was designed and implemented using propensity-score matching (PSM) analysis to compare the effectiveness and safety profiles of pembrolizumab and sintilimab in patients with advanced NSCLC undergoing comprehensive therapy.

Objectives: Despite increasing interest, prospective data on the use of degradable starch microsphere-transarterial chemoembolization (DSM-TACE) in the management of patients with unresectable HCC are still scarce. The objective of the HepaStar study was to collect prospective safety and effectiveness data in a prospective multicenter observational study.
Materials And Methods: Between January 2017 and December 2022, consecutive participants with unresectable or recurrent HCC treated with DSM-TACE as standard of care at 6 participating centers in Europe were enrolled.

Background: The study was conducted in order to investigate whether neoadjuvant immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy can bring survival benefits to patients with locally advanced resectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) in the real world.
Methods: We retrospectively analysed patients with locally advanced resectable ESCC who underwent surgery at the Jining First People's Hospital from April 2020 to April 2022. Based on their medical history, the enrolled patients were divided into a neoadjuvant immunochemotherapy plus surgery group (nICT group) and a surgery-only group (S group).
