The prognosis of lung metastatic osteosarcoma (OS) remains disappointing. siRNA-based gene silencing of VEGFR2 is a promising treatment strategy for lung metastatic OS, but there is a lack of safe and efficient delivery systems to encapsulate siRNAs for in vivo administration. This study presented a synthetic biological strategy that remolds the host liver with synthesized genetic circuits for efficient in vivo VEGFR2 siRNA delivery. After being taken-up by hepatocytes, the genetic circuit (in the form of a DNA plasmid) reprogrammed the liver to drive the autonomous intrahepatic assembly and encapsulation of VEGFR2 siRNAs into secretory small extracellular vesicles (sEVs), thus allowing for the transport of self-assembled VEGFR2 siRNAs towards the lung. The results showed that our strategy was superior to the positive medicine (Apatinib) for OS lung metastasis in terms of therapeutic efficacy and toxic adverse effects and may provide a feasible and viable therapeutic solution for lung metastatic OS.

Background/purpose: Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) with ACURATE neo2 showed better hemodynamic outcomes by mitigating paravalvular leakage (PVL) compared with ACURATE neo, and revealed promising one-year outcomes in single-arm studies. However, studies comparing the hemodynamic and clinical outcomes of the two valves are still scarce. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the one-year hemodynamic and clinical outcomes between the neo2 and neo.

Metastasis is responsible for most cancer-related deaths. Different cancers have their own preferential sites of metastases, a phenomenon termed metastatic organotropism. The mechanisms underlying organotropism are multifactorial and include the generation of a pre-metastatic niche (PMN), metastatic homing, colonization, dormancy, and metastatic outgrowth.

Introduction: Treatment with adjuvant osimertinib for three years is the standard-of-care for resected stage IB-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutations. The role of neoadjuvant osimertinib in the perioperative setting is yet to be elucidated in the NeoADAURA study (NCT04351555).
Methods: This is a single center, pilot study of patients with clinical stage IA-IIIA NSCLC (AJCC 8th edition) harboring an activating EGFR mutation (Exon 19 deletion, L858R) (NCT04816838).

Histologic transformation from non-small cell to small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a resistance mechanism to immune checkpoint inhibitors. We report herein a case of lung adenocarcinoma who developed liver and brain metastases during adjuvant atezolizumab therapy. The patient underwent a craniotomy to resect a brain metastasis, which was pathologically diagnosed as SCLC.

Background: Ultra-protective ventilation is the combination of low airway pressures and tidal volume (Vt) combined with extra corporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCOR). A recent large study showed no benefit of ultra-protective ventilation compared to standard ventilation in ARDS (Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome) patients. However, the reduction in Vt failed to achieve the objective of less than or equal to 3 ml/kg predicted body weight (PBW).
