Article Synopsis
  • The negative symptoms of schizophrenia, like lack of emotion and motivation, are hard to treat and significantly impact daily functioning.
  • This review highlights current research on treatment options for these symptoms, categorizing them into different types and evaluating various assessment scales.
  • Although no treatments are conclusively proven as the best for these symptoms, some off-label and investigational medications show promise, including cariprazine and memantine, and further research is needed to explore new therapeutic possibilities.

Axial spondyloarthritis manifests as a chronic inflammatory disease primarily affecting the sacroiliac joints and spine. Although chronic back pain and spinal stiffness are typical initial symptoms, peripheral (ie, enthesitis, arthritis, and dactylitis) and extra-musculoskeletal (ie, uveitis, inflammatory bowel disease, and psoriasis) manifestations are also common. Timely and accurate diagnosis is challenging and relies on identifying a clinical pattern with a combination of clinical, laboratory (HLA-B27 positivity), and imaging findings (eg, structural damage on pelvic radiographs and bone marrow oedema on MRI of the sacroiliac joints).

Article Synopsis
  • TACE is the standard treatment for patients with unresectable, non-metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma, and this study evaluates the effectiveness of adding lenvatinib and pembrolizumab to TACE compared to a placebo.
  • The multicenter, randomised, double-blind phase 3 study (LEAP-012) involved participants from 137 sites across 33 countries who were randomly assigned to receive either TACE with the new drugs or TACE with a placebo.
  • The primary endpoints were progression-free survival and overall survival, and the results reported are from the first interim analysis, which serves as the final analysis for progression-free survival.

Cenobamate is a new and highly effective antiseizure compound used for the treatment of adults with focal onset seizures and particularly for epilepsy resistant to other antiepileptic drugs. It acts on multiple targets, as it is a positive allosteric activator of γ-aminobutyric acid type A (GABA) receptors and an inhibitor of neuronal sodium channels, particularly of the late or persistent Na current. We recently evidenced the inhibitory effects of cenobamate on the peak and late current component of the human cardiac isoform hNav1.

Article Synopsis
  • Organoids were created from a patient's primary tumor and metastatic lymph nodes, accurately mirroring the tumor's characteristics.
  • Drug testing on these organoids showed distinct differences in how they responded to treatments based on their origin (primary vs. metastatic).
  • This personalized approach to using organoids aids in making informed treatment decisions for gastric cancer, potentially improving patient outcomes.
