BACKGROUND: No head-to-head clinical trials have compared the differences in adverse events (AEs) between nivolumab plus ipilimumab (NIVO-IPI) and nivolumab plus cabozantinib (NIVO-CABO) in the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). AIM: We analysed the two largest real-world databases, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) and the World Health Organization's VigiBase, to elucidate the differences in AEs between NIVO-IPI and NIVO-CABO...

The direct oxidation of CH4 to C2 H5 OH is attractive but challenging owing to the intricate processes involving carbon-chain growth and hydroxylation simultaneously. The inherent difficulty arises from the strong tendency of CH4 to overoxidize in the commonly used pressurized powder suspension systems rich in reactive oxygen radicals (ROR), which are specifically designed for CH4 concentration and activation. Meanwhile, the strong tendency of nucleophilic attack of potent ROR on the C-C bond of the resulting product C2 H5 OH ultimately leads to a higher selectivity for C1 oxygenates...

IMPORTANCE: With the widespread use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), concerns about their pregnancy outcomes through maternal exposure have emerged, and clinical comparative data are lacking. OBJECTIVE: To assess the risk of pregnancy-, fetal-, and/or newborn-related adverse outcomes associated with exposure to ICIs compared with exposure to other anticancer agents. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: In this cohort study, all reports mentioning a pregnancy-related condition and an antineoplastic agent (Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical classification group L01) used for a cancer indication registered in the World Health Organization international pharmacovigilance database VigiBase up to June 26, 2022, were extracted...

BACKGROUND: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) hold promise as treatment options for various types of cancer. However, recent case reports have brought attention to myositis, a potentially life-threatening complication associated with ICIs. This study aims to assess the spectrum of myositis associated with ICIs, including its clinical features, risk factors for fatal cases, adverse events (AEs) accompanying ICIs-related myositis, and the risk of myositis in different populations in real-world settings...

Thirst is a complex physiological compensatory mechanism but could also be associated with drugs. This association was poorly investigated previously. Using the WHO global pharmacovigilance database, Vigibase®, disproportionality analyses potential associations between exposure to drugs and thirst reports were performed. All reports of thirst in adults between 01/01/2000 and 31/12/2023 were included. Results are expressed as reporting odds ratio (ROR). Analysis of the 3186 reports of thirst (978 'serious') allowed, first, to confirm the association between thirst and exposure to vasopressin antagonists (tolvaptan), lithium, gliflozins (dapagliflozin, empagliflozin), pregabalin and antimuscarinic drugs (glycopyronium, oxybutynin, tiotropium)...

BACKGROUND: Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4 inhibitors) have acquired a foothold in managing type 2 diabetes mellitus, but few concerns have arisen regarding their overall safety profile. The aim of this study is to assess the potential risk of DPP-4 inhibitors by analyzing data from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: This is a retrospective study which explored the FAERS database till March 2023 for the collection of safety reports...

BACKGROUND: Current studies have shown emerging roles of lncRNAs in the pathobiology of neuropathic pain and migraine.

This approach was used to investigate the impact of USP25 on CD4+ T lymphocyte differentiation in vitro ...

OBJECTIVES: Bivalent COVID-19 mRNA vaccines, which contain two different components, were authorized to provide protection against both the original strain of SARS-CoV-2 and the Omicron variant as a measure to address the COVID-19 pandemic. Concerns regarding the risk of myocarditis/pericarditis associated with bivalent vaccination have been raised due to the observed superior neutralizing antibody responses. This study aimed to investigate the risk of myocarditis/pericarditis following bivalent COVID-19 mRNA vaccination compared to monovalent vaccination...

Chronic antibody mediated rejection (AMR) is the major cause of solid organ graft rejection. Th17 contributes to AMR through the secretion of IL17A, IL21 and IL22. These cytokines promote neutrophilic infiltration, B cell proliferation and donor specific antibodies (DSAs) production. In the current study we investigated the role of Th17 in transplant sensitization. Additionally, we investigated the therapeutic potential of novel inverse agonists of the retinoic acid receptor-related orphan receptor gamma t (RORγt) in the treatment of skin allograft rejection in sensitized mice...

BACKGROUND: Use of psychostimulants and relative drugs has increased worldwide in treatment of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in adolescents and adults. Recent studies suggest a potential association between use of psychostimulants and psychotic symptoms. The risk may not be the same between different psychostimulants. OBJECTIVE: To assess whether amphetamine or atomoxetine use is associated with a higher risk of reporting symptoms of psychosis than methylphenidate use in adolescents and adults, particularly in patients with ADHD...

BACKGROUND: Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy target receptor tyrosine kinase-like orphan receptor 1 (ROR1) is broadly expressed in hematologic and solid tumors, however clinically-characterized ROR1-CAR T cells with single chain variable fragment (scFv)-R12 targeting domain failed to induce durable remissions, in part due to the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). Herein, we describe the development of an improved ROR1-CAR with a novel, fully human scFv9 targeting domain, and augmented with TGFβRIIDN armor protective against a major TME factor, transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ)...

BACKGROUND: Daratumumab, a first-in-class humanized IgG1κ monoclonal antibody that targets the CD38 epitope, has been approved for treatment of multiple myeloma by FDA. The current study was to evaluate daratumumab-related adverse events (AEs) through data mining of the US Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Disproportionality analyses, including the reporting odds ratio (ROR), the proportional reporting ratio (PRR), the Bayesian confidence propagation neural network (BCPNN) and the multi-item gamma Poisson shrinker (MGPS) algorithms were employed to quantify the signals of daratumumab-associated AEs...

Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are essential in defending against infection. Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response to infection and a leading cause of death. The relationship between the overall competency of the host immune response and disease severity is not fully elucidated. This study identified a higher proportion of circulating MAIT17 with expression of IL-17A and RORγt in sepsis patients. The proportion of MAIT17 was correlated with the severity of sepsis. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) analysis revealed an enhanced expression of lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA) in MAIT17 in sepsis patients...

Objective: This study aimed to assess the potential of PARP inhibitors to prevent cardiotoxicity. Methods: First, a re-analysis and update of a previously published study was conducted. Additional searches were conducted of the PubMed and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials databases on 2 June 2023. After the selection process, the pooled odds ratio (OR) for cardiac adverse events (AEs) was calculated. Second, the FAERS database was examined for 10 frequently co-administered anticancer agents. The reporting odds ratio (ROR) was calculated based on the occurrence of cardiac AEs depending on the co-administration of PARP inhibitors...

BACKGROUND: The PHERGain study (NCT03161353) is assessing early metabolic responses to neoadjuvant treatment with trastuzumab-pertuzumab and chemotherapy de-escalation using a [18 Fluorine]fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography ([18 F]FDG-PET) and a pathological complete response-adapted strategy in HER2-positive (HER2+) early breast cancer (EBC).

Ror-family receptors, Ror1 and Ror2, are type I transmembrane proteins that possess an extracellular cysteine-rich domain, which is conserved throughout the Frizzled-family receptors and is a binding site for Wnt ligands. Both Ror1 and Ror2 function primarily as receptors or co-receptors for Wnt5a to activate the β-catenin-independent, non-canonical Wnt signaling, thereby regulating cell polarity, migration, proliferation, and differentiation depending on the context. Ror1 and Ror2 are expressed highly in many tissues during embryogenesis but minimally or scarcely in adult tissues, with some exceptions...
