Introduction: We aimed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity of a single dose of LY-CovMab in Chinese healthy adults.

Methods: We conducted a phase 1, randomized, dose-escalation, placebo-controlled trial in 42 volunteers, 18-45 years of age, and 40 out of 42 received a single dose of LY-CovMab or placebo with LY-CovMab at a dose of 30 mg, 150 mg, 600 mg, 1200 mg, and 2400 mg. There were ten subjects in each group receiving LY-CovMab or placebo in a 4:1 ratio with the exception that the 30 mg group had two subjects both receiving LY-CovMab.

Results: Among the 42 randomized participants, 40 received an injection with 32 administered LY-CovMab and 8 administered placebo. A total of 18 drug-related treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were reported in 12 subjects (30.0%), including protein urine present (25%, 10/40) and blood creatinine increased (7.5%, 3/40). The incidence of drug-related TEAE in each dosage group was as follows: 150 mg (28.6%, 2/7), 600 mg (25%, 2/8), 1200 mg (14.3%, 1/7), 2400 mg (50%, 4/8), and placebo (37.5%, 3/8). All drug-related TEAEs were grade 1, and most of them were recovering/resolving or recovered/resolved without taking action. The serum exposure of LY-CovMab (C, AUC, AUC) after intravenous infusion increased in an approximately proportional manner as the dose increased from 150 to 2400 mg. The elimination half-life (t) value did not differ among different dose cohorts and was estimated to be around 28.5 days.

Conclusions: A single dose of LY-CovMab was shown to be safe and well tolerated in Chinese healthy adults. The pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles of LY-CovMab in healthy adults showed typical monoclonal antibody distribution and elimination characteristics. LY-CovMab demonstrated dose proportionality.

Validity of one-time phantomless patient-specific quality assurance in proton therapy with regard to the reproducibility of beam delivery.

Med Phys

January 2025

Background: Patient-specific quality assurance (PSQA) is a crucial yet resource-intensive task in proton therapy, requiring special equipment, expertise and additional beam time. Machine delivery log files contain information about energy, position and monitor units (MU) of all delivered spots, allowing a reconstruction of the applied dose. This raises the prospect of phantomless, log file-based QA (LFQA) as an automated replacement of current phantom-based solutions, provided that such an approach guarantees a comparable level of safety.

Background: Diffusing alpha-emitters Radiation Therapy ("Alpha DaRT") is a promising new radiation therapy modality for treating bulky tumors. Ra-carrying sources are inserted intratumorally, producing a therapeutic alpha-dose region with a total size of a few millimeter via the diffusive motion of Ra's alpha-emitting daughters. Clinical studies of Alpha DaRT have reported 100% positive response (30%-100% shrinkage within several weeks), with post-insertion swelling in close to half of the cases.

Acetamide is a hepatocarcinogen in rats. We previously revealed that acetamide induces characteristic large micronuclei in rat liver, suggesting the possible involvement of chromosome aberrations in acetamide-induced hepatocarcinogenesis. To elucidate the mechanism of large micronuclei formation, in this study we examined time-dependent changes in rat hepatocytes after administration of acetamide.
