Purpose: SB4 is an etanercept biosimilar, approved by the European Commission (EC) and the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) following a demonstration of equivalent efficacy and safety and comparable quality data to the reference product. This study aimed to demonstrate equivalent pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles, safety, and tolerability between SB4 autoinjector (AI) and SB4 pre-filled syringe (PFS).

Patients And Methods: This was an open-label, two-period, two-sequence, single-dose, cross-over study to evaluate bioequivalence of PK profiles, safety, and tolerability between SB4 AI and PFS in healthy adults. Treatment periods were separated by 14 days resulting in a 35-day washout between investigational product (IP) administration in Periods 1 and 2.

Results: A total of 50 subjects were randomized: 24 subjects in Sequence I and 26 in Sequence II, and 6 subjects discontinued from the study. The primary PK endpoints including area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity (AUC) and to the last quantifiable concentration (AUC), and maximum serum concentration (C) were all within the equivalence margin of 80.00-125.00%. Safety and tolerability were comparable between the two treatments.

Conclusion: PK profiles showed that SB4 AI and PFS were bioequivalent in healthy subjects. Safety assessment was also comparable between the two treatments.

New treatment approaches are warranted for patients with advanced melanoma refractory to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) or BRAF-targeted therapy. We designed BNT221, a personalized, neoantigen-specific autologous T cell product derived from peripheral blood, and tested this in a 3 + 3 dose-finding study with two dose levels (DLs) in patients with locally advanced or metastatic melanoma, disease progression after ICB, measurable disease (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1) and, where appropriate, BRAF-targeted therapy.

Malaria vaccines consisting of metabolically active Plasmodium falciparum (Pf) sporozoites can offer improved protection compared with currently deployed subunit vaccines. In a previous study, we demonstrated the superior protective efficacy of a three-dose regimen of late-arresting genetically attenuated parasites administered by mosquito bite (GA2-MB) compared with early-arresting counterparts (GA1-MB) against a homologous controlled human malaria infection. Encouraged by these results, we explored the potency of a single GA2-MB immunization in a placebo-controlled randomized trial.

Objective: The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of jaktinib hydrochloride tablets (jaktinib), a Janus kinase inhibitor, in patients with active radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (r-axSpA).

Methods: Adults with active r-axSpA who met modified New York criteria and had an inadequate response to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs were randomised 1:1:1 to receive jaktinib 75 mg two times per day, 100 mg two times per day, or placebo. The primary and key secondary endpoints were Assessment of SpondyloArthritis international Society 20 (ASAS 20) and ASAS 40 responses, respectively, at week 16.

Anti-angiogenesis offers an important treatment strategy for metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Metronomic chemotherapy (MCT) provides antiangiogenic effects without increased toxicities, making it good partner for antiangiogenic therapy. We conducted the present retrospective study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of anlotinib plus MCT for HER2 negative MBC.

Background: Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) presents with a change in personality, behaviour and language and is the second most common cause of young-onset dementia after Alzheimer's disease. Loss of function mutations in GRN, encoding progranulin (PGRN), causes FTD in the heterozygous state, accounting for 5-10% of all FTD cases. PGRN is essential for normal lysosomal function and neuronal survival.
