Switching from dupilumab to tralokinumab or Janus kinase inhibitors in cases of ocular and/or facial adverse events in patients with atopic dermatitis: a multicenter retrospective study.

Background: Patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) may discontinue dupilumab owing to dupilumab-induced ocular adverse events (DOAEs) or dupilumab-induced facial redness (DFR).

Objective: To evaluate DOAE and DFR outcomes after switching to tralokinumab or Janus kinase inhibitor (JAKi).

Methods: This retrospective study included 106 patients discontinuing dupilumab because of DOAEs and/or DFR.

TransCatheter aortic valve implantation and fractional flow reserve-guided percutaneous coronary intervention versus conventional surgical aortic valve replacement and coronary bypass grafting for treatment of patients with aortic valve stenosis and complex or multivessel coronary disease (TCW): an international, multicentre, prospective, open-label, non-inferiority, randomised controlled trial.

Background: Patients with severe aortic stenosis present frequently (∼50%) with concomitant obstructive coronary artery disease. Current guidelines recommend combined surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) as the preferred treatment. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) represent a valid treatment alternative.

Impact of endometriosis on partners: Results from the French EndoVie survey.

Objectives: To study the impact of endometriosis on women's partners and evaluate the partners' perceptions and experiences.

Study Design: Between January 21 and 28, 2020, a prospective cross-sectional web-based survey was conducted among partners of women suffering from endometriosis. The investigated sample group (n = 100) was taken from a targeted population among the Ipsos Access panel that collects data from 235,171 French subjects.

Playing sport as a central-line carrier: a survey to collect the European pediatric intestinal failure centers' view.

Background: The administration of home parenteral nutrition improves quality of life for patients with intestinal failure, thus fostering their will to actively participate to social activities. Nevertheless, sports participation can be risky for patients with a central venous catheter (CVC). Despite literature thoroughly proving the positive impact of sports on motor-psychosocial development, no consistent evidence assessing its role on central-line complications is available.

Comparison of Dual Monoclonal Antibody Therapies for COVID-19 Evolution: A Multicentric Retrospective Study.

Background: Neutralizing antibodies targeting the SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein reduce COVID-19-related risk of hospitalization, particularly in high-risk individuals. The COCOPREV-R study aimed to evaluate and compare clinical outcomes in high-risk SARS-CoV-2 patients treated with dual monoclonal antibody therapies and to identify associated virological factors.

Methods: The COCOPREV-R study retrospectively collected real-world data from high-risk patients receiving Bamlanivimab/Etesevimab or Casirivimab/Imdevimab dual monoclonal antibody therapies (22 February 2021 to 15 June 2021).

Objective: To compare the ongoing pregnancy rate per initiated cycle between patients with functional hypothalamic amenorrhea (FHA) and patients with congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (CHH) treated with pulsatile gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) administration.

Design: Retrospective monocentric cohort study conducted at the University Hospital of Lille from 2004 to 2022.

Setting: Lille University Hospital, Department of Endocrine Gynecology.

Outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve implantation for native aortic valve regurgitation.

Background: Large datasets of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) for pure aortic valve regurgitation (PAVR) are scarce.

Aims: We aimed to report procedural safety and long-term clinical events (CE) in a contemporary cohort of PAVR patients treated with new-generation devices (NGD).

Methods: Patients with grade III/IV PAVR enrolled in the FRANCE-TAVI Registry were selected.

PNLIPRP1 Hypermethylation in Exocrine Pancreas Links Type 2 Diabetes and Cholesterol Metabolism.

We postulated that type 2 diabetes (T2D) predisposes patients to exocrine pancreatic diseases through (epi)genetic mechanisms. We explored the methylome (using MethylationEPIC arrays) of the exocrine pancreas in 141 donors, assessing the impact of T2D. An epigenome-wide association study of T2D identified hypermethylation in an enhancer of the pancreatic lipase-related protein 1 (PNLIPRP1) gene, associated with decreased PNLIPRP1 expression.

Hypertriglyceridemia Results From an Impaired Catabolism of Triglyceride-Rich Lipoproteins in -Related Lipodystrophy.

Background: Pathogenic variants in -encoding PLIN1 (perilipin-1) are responsible for an autosomal dominant form of familial partial lipodystrophy (FPL) associated with severe insulin resistance, hepatic steatosis, and important hypertriglyceridemia. This study aims to decipher the mechanisms of hypertriglyceridemia associated with -related FPL.

Methods: We performed an in vivo lipoprotein kinetic study in 6 affected patients compared with 13 healthy controls and 8 patients with type 2 diabetes.

Bortezomib, thalidomide, and dexamethasone with or without daratumumab and followed by daratumumab maintenance or observation in transplant-eligible newly diagnosed multiple myeloma: long-term follow-up of the CASSIOPEIA randomised controlled phase 3 trial.

Background: CASSIOPEIA part 1 demonstrated superior depth of response and prolonged progression-free survival with daratumumab in combination with bortezomib, thalidomide, and dexamethasone (D-VTd) versus bortezomib, thalidomide, and dexamethasone (VTd) alone as an induction and consolidation regimen in transplant-eligible patients newly diagnosed with myeloma. In CASSIOPEIA part 2, daratumumab maintenance significantly improved progression-free survival and increased minimal residual disease (MRD)-negativity rates versus observation. Here, we report long-term study outcomes of CASSIOPEIA.

The use of 1E12, a monoclonal anti-platelet factor 4 antibody, to improve the diagnosis of vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia.

Background: Vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT) is a complication of adenoviral-based vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 due to prothrombotic immunoglobulin (Ig) G antibodies to platelet factor 4 (PF4) and may be difficult to distinguish from heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) in patients treated with heparin.

Objectives: We assessed the usefulness of competitive anti-PF4 enzyme immunoassays (EIAs) in this context.

Methods: The ability of F(ab')2 fragments of 1E12, 1C12, and 2E1, 3 monoclonal anti-PF4 antibodies, to inhibit the binding of human VITT or HIT antibodies to PF4 was evaluated using EIAs.

International Myeloma Working Group immunotherapy committee consensus guidelines and recommendations for optimal use of T-cell-engaging bispecific antibodies in multiple myeloma.

Multiple myeloma remains an incurable disease, despite the development of numerous drug classes and combinations that have contributed to improved overall survival. Immunotherapies directed against cancer cell-surface antigens, such as chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy and T-cell-redirecting bispecific antibodies, have recently received regulatory approvals and shown unprecedented efficacy. However, these immunotherapies have unique mechanisms of action and toxicities that are different to previous treatments for myeloma, so experiences from clinical trials and early access programmes are essential for providing specific recommendations for management of patients, especially as these agents become available across many parts of the world.

Efficacy of CAR T-cell therapy is not impaired by previous bispecific antibody treatment in large B-cell lymphoma.

In this retrospective study, chimeric antigen receptor T cells remained effective in patients with relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma after prior exposure to bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) targeting different antigens. These results are relevant to clinical practice, particularly given the increasing use of BsAbs in earlier treatment lines.

Root cause analysis of mortality after esophagectomy for cancer: a multicenter cohort study from the FREGAT database.

Background: Esophagectomy is associated with significant mortality. A better understanding of the causes leading to death may help to reduce mortality. A root cause analysis of mortality after esophagectomy was performed.

An AluYa5 Insertion in the 3'UTR of COL4A1 and Cerebral Small Vessel Disease.

Importance: Cerebral small vessel diseases (CSVDs) account for one-fifth of stroke cases. Numerous familial cases remain unresolved after routine screening of known CSVD genes.

Objective: To identify novel genes and mechanisms associated with familial CSVD.

Two-year treatment persistence with subcutaneous abatacept in rheumatoid arthritis: results from the French cohort of the ASCORE study.

Objectives: While multiple studies have investigated treatment persistence rates with intravenous abatacept, limited information is available about real-world treatment continuation with the subcutaneous form. The international ASCORE study described the characteristics and treatment persistence of real-world patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) receiving subcutaneous abatacept. This article presents the findings of the French cohort.

Intracellular within the Airway Epithelium of Cystic Fibrosis Lung Tissues.

is the major bacterial pathogen colonizing the airways of adult patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) and causes chronic infections that persist despite antibiotic therapy. Intracellular bacteria may represent an unrecognized reservoir of bacteria that evade the immune system and antibiotic therapy. Although the ability of to invade and survive within epithelial cells has been described in different epithelial cell models, evidence of this intracellular lifestyle in human lung tissues is currently lacking.
