In early phase drug development of combination therapy, the primary objective is to preliminarily assess whether there is additive activity from a novel agent when combined with an established monotherapy. Due to potential feasibility issues for conducting a large randomized study, uncontrolled single-arm trials have been the mainstream approach in cancer clinical trials. However, such trials often present significant challenges in deciding whether to proceed to the next phase of development due to the lack of randomization in traditional two-arm trials.

Objective: To maximize local tumor control, stabilize affected bones, and preserve or replace joints with minimal interventional burden, thereby enhancing quality of life for empowered living.
Indications: Suitable for patients with bone metastases, particularly those with severe pain and/or fractures and appropriate life expectancy.
Contraindications: In primary bone tumors, refer to the sarcoma surgery team for evaluation of wide resection.

Social media generates vast amounts of spatio-temporal sequential data. However, current methods often ignore the complex spatio-temporal correlations within these data. This oversight makes it difficult to fully capture the dynamic features of the data.

Polymer-based catalysts have garnered significant interest for their efficiency, reusability, and compatibility with various synthesis processes. In catalytic applications, polymers offer the advantage of structural versatility, enabling functional groups to be tailored for specific catalytic activities. In this study, we developed a novel magnetic copolymer of methyl methacrylate and maleic anhydride (PMMAn), synthesized via in situ chemical polymerization of methyl methacrylate onto maleic anhydride, using benzoyl peroxide as a free-radical initiator.

In this paper, a two-level search strategy fused with an improved no-fit polygon algorithm and improved bat algorithm is proposed to obtain the layout points of multiple vehicles. Additionally, a space-time scheduling strategy is proposed using the Improved D*Lite Algorithm (ID*Lite) and improved Bezier curve to generate the trajectories of individual vehicles. Furthermore, a conflict resolution strategy is introduced to address the collision conflict problem during multi-vehicle scheduling.
