The 2017 World Health Organization classification described aggressive pituitary neuroendocrine tumor (PitNET) as "a tumor with strong invasiveness and rapid growth, which is difficult to treat with surgery, radiation therapy, or drug therapy," which remains a challenge in the treatment of pituitary tumors. Currently, temozolomide (TMZ) is the first-line treatment for aggressive PitNET. However, it is not yet covered by insurance in Japan.

Low-dose oral minoxidil (≤ 5 mg daily) has emerged as an effective off-label treatment for androgenetic alopecia, outperforming topical minoxidil in terms of adherence. However, the optimal dose has not yet been determined, and high doses may cause systemic adverse effects. This retrospective study of 57 patients evaluated the safety and efficacy profile of oral minoxidil at higher doses (> 5 mg).

Biological targeting is crucial for effective cancer treatment with reduced toxicity but is limited by the availability of tumor surface markers. To overcome this, we developed a nanoparticle-based, Tumor-specific suRfACE maRker-independent (TRACER) targeting approach. Utilizing the unique biodistribution properties of nanoparticles, we encapsulated Ac4ManNAz to selectively label tumors with azide reactive groups.

Introduction: Brain network dysfunction, particularly within the default mode network (DMN), is an increasingly apparent contributor to the clinical progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can target key DMN hubs, maintain signaling function, and delay or improve clinical outcomes in AD. Here, we present the rationale and design of a study using off-the-shelf equipment and the latest clinical evidence to expand on prior rTMS work and reduce participant burden in the process.
