Introduction: This study evaluated adebrelimab (a programmed death-ligand 1 antibody) plus nab-paclitaxel and carboplatin as perioperative treatment for resectable NSCLC.
Methods: Eligible patients had resectable stage II to III NSCLCs without driver gene. Patients received neoadjuvant treatment with three cycles of intravenous adebrelimab (20 mg/kg on day 1), nab-paclitaxel (100 mg/m on days 1, 8, and 15), and carboplatin (area under the curve 5 mg/mL per min on day 1), of each 21-day cycle before surgical resection, and followed by 16 cycles of adebrelimab (20 mg/kg on day 1 in 3 wk) adjuvant treatment. The primary end point was major pathologic response (MPR) per blinded independent pathologic review.
Results: A total of 37 patients were enrolled and received planned neoadjuvant therapy. There were 34 patients (91.9%) who underwent surgery. As of data cutoff on January 25, 2022, 19 of the 37 patients (51.4%, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 35.9-66.6) achieved MPR per blinded independent pathologic review and 11 patients (29.7%, 95% CI: 17.5-45.8) achieved pathologic complete response. Furthermore, 26 patients (70.3%, 95% CI: 54.2-82.5) had an objective response per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1. The 12-month event-free survival rate was 77.8% (95% CI: 54.1-90.3). In addition, 29 patients (78.4%) had grade greater than or equal to three treatment-related adverse events (AEs) and nine (24.3%) had treatment-related serious AEs. No treatment-related deaths occurred. Grade greater than or equal to three surgery-related AEs within 30 or 90 days after surgery were both reported in five patients (14.7%).
Conclusions: Adebrelimab plus nab-paclitaxel and carboplatin as perioperative therapy led to a substantial proportion of MPR and high resectability, with manageable toxicities. On the basis of the phase 1b results, phase 3 trial was initiated.

Background: Cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury is a common serious complication after cardiac surgery. Currently, there are no specific pharmacological therapies. Our understanding of its pathophysiology remains preliminary.

Background: Central nervous system (CNS) tumors lead to cancer-related mortality in children. Genetic ancestry-associated cancer prevalence and outcomes have been studied, but is limited.
Methods: We performed genetic ancestry prediction in 1,452 pediatric patients with paired normal and tumor whole genome sequencing from the Open Pediatric Cancer (OpenPedCan) project to evaluate the influence of reported race and ethnicity and ancestry-based genetic superpopulations on tumor histology, molecular subtype, survival, and treatment.

Aims: Bone marrow mononuclear cells (BM-MNCs) are a rich source of hematopoietic stem cells that have been widely used in experimental therapies for patients with various diseases, including fractures.Activation of angiogenesis is believed to be one of the major modes of action of BM-MNCs; however, the essential mechanism by which BM-MNCs activate angiogenesis remains elusive. This study aimed to demonstrate that BM-MNCs promote bone healing by enhancing angiogenesis through direct cell-to-cell interactions via gap junctions, in addition to a previously reported method.

Rapid declines in opioid analgesics dispensed in American communities since 2011 raise concerns about inadequate access to effective pain management among patients for whom opioid therapies are appropriate, especially for those living in racial/ethnic minority and socioeconomically deprived communities. Using 2011 to 2021 national data from the Automated Reports and Consolidated Ordering System and generalized linear models, this study examined quarterly per capita distribution of oxycodone, hydrocodone, and morphine (in oral morphine milligram equivalents [MMEs]) by communities' racial/ethnic and socioeconomic profiles. Communities (defined by 3-digit-zip codes areas) were classified as "majority White" (≥50% self-reported non-Hispanic White population) vs "majority non-White.

Urinary obstruction causes injury to the renal medulla, impairing the ability to concentrate urine, and increasing the risk of progressive kidney disease. However, the regenerative capacity of the renal medulla after reversal of obstruction is poorly understood. To investigate this, we developed a mouse model of reversible urinary obstruction.
