Background
Major guidelines do not recommend routine molecular profiling of lung squamous-cell carcinoma (LUSC) because the prevalence of actionable alterations is thought to be low. Increased utilization of next-generation sequencing (NGS), particularly with cell-free circulating tumor DNA, facilitates reevaluation of this premise.Patients and Methods
We retrospectively evaluated the prevalence of actionable alterations in 2 distinct LUSC cohorts totaling 492 patients. A total of 410 consecutive patients with stage 3B or 4 LUSC were tested with a targeted cell-free circulating DNA NGS assay, and 82 patients with LUSC of any stage were tested with a tissue NGS cancer panel.Results
In the overall cohort, 467 patients (94.9%) had a diagnosis of LUSC, and 25 patients (5.1%) had mixed histology with a squamous component. A total of 10.5% of the LUSC subgroup had somatic alterations with therapeutic relevance, including in EGFR (2.8%), ALK/ROS1 (1.3%), BRAF (1.5%), and MET amplification or exon 14 skipping (5.1%). Sixteen percent of patients with mixed histology had an actionable alteration. In the LUSC subgroup, 3 evaluable patients were treated with targeted therapy for an actionable alteration; all of them experienced partial response.Conclusion
In this large, real-world LUSC cohort, we observed a clinically significant prevalence of actionable alterations. Accurate local histopathologic assessment in advanced-stage LUSC can be challenging. Further evaluation of the genomic landscape in this setting is warranted to potentially identify underappreciated treatment options. 相似文献2.

A cross-sectional survey and evaluation of paragonimiasis situation from endemic area in Phitsanulok Province was studied. Studies on the species and prevalence of parasites which infected people in Noen Maprang, Phitsanulok Province were also conducted during October 1999-March 2000. The sputum specimens were collected and examined to identify Paragonimus heterotremus eggs. In addition fecal samples were collected and examined for parasites by the formalin-ethyl acetate concentration technique. P. heterotremus eggs were detected in 2 out of 391 sputum specimens; a prevalence of 0.51%. A total of 584 stool specimens were obtained and examined. It was found that the prevalence of parasitic infection was 36.30%. Opisthorchis viverrini infection was the most prevalent (10.78%), followed by Strongyloides stercoralis (9.59%), hookworm (8.22%), Echinostoma spp (2.23%), minute intestinal flukes (1.54%), Taenia species (1.37%), Enterobius vermicularis (0.68%), Entamoeba coli (1.03%) and Giardia lamblia (0.86%). The prevalent rate of paragonimiasis in this endemic area in Phitsanulok Province has decreased during the past decade. However, there were other important parasite infections, especially opisthorchiasis and strongylodiasis and these should be studied further. 相似文献

Curcuminoids loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) have been successfully developed using a microemulsion technique at approximately 75 degrees C. It was found that variation in the amount of ingredients had profound effects on the curcuminoid loading capacity, the mean particle size, and size distribution. At optimized process conditions, lyophilized curcuminoids loaded SLNs showed spherical particles with a mean particle size of approximately 450nm and a polydispersity index of 0.4. Up to 70% (w/w) curcuminoids incorporation efficacy was achieved. In vitro release studies showed a prolonged release of the curcuminoids from the solid lipid nanoparticles up to 12h following the Higuchi's square root model. After 6-month storage at room temperature in the absence of sunlight, the physical and chemical stabilities of the lyophilized curcuminoids loaded SLNs could be maintained, i.e. the mean particle size and the amount of curcuminoids showed no significant changes (P>0.05) compared to the freshly prepared SLNs. In addition, the chemical stability of curcuminoids incorporated into SLNs was further investigated by dispersing them into a model cream base. The results revealed that after storage in the absence of sunlight for 6 months, the percentages of the remaining curcumin, bisdemethoxycurcumin and demethoxycurcumin were 91, 96 and 88, respectively. 相似文献

We characterized cromolyn sodium (CS) hydrates and evaluated their molecular states in low-dose formulations using Na-multiquantum magic-angle spinning (MQMAS) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis. Two CS hydrates, low-water-content hydrated form and high-water-content hydrated form containing 2–3 and 5–6 hydrates, respectively, were prepared by humidification. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction and powder X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that these CS hydrates contained sodium channel structures and that water molecules were adsorbed on the sodium nucleus. 13C-cross-polarization/MAS NMR spectra of these hydrates revealed similar results, confirming that the water molecules were adsorbed not on the cromolyn skeletons but mainly on the sodium nucleus. In contrast, 23Na-MQMAS NMR analysis allowed us to clearly distinguish these hydrates without discernible effects from quadrupolar interaction. Thus, MQMAS NMR analysis is a valuable tool for evaluating salt drugs and their formulations. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. and the American Pharmacists Association J Pharm Sci 102:2738–2747, 2013 相似文献

The mechanism of drug nanoparticle formation of phenytoin (DPH) and its derivatives monomethylphenytoin (MDPH) and dimethylphenytoin (DMDPH) was investigated. The drug, polyvinylpyrrolidone K17 (PVP), and sodium dodecyl sulfate were coground to obtain the ground mixture (GM). The DPH GM was amorphous; however, MDPH and DMDPH GMs contained drug crystals. Spectral changes in infrared and (13)C solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance were observed in the DPH GM, partially observed in the MDPH GM, and hardly observed in the DMDPH GM. Mean particle sizes of the DPH, MDPH, and DMDPH GM nanosuspension were almost the same; however, stability after storage differed in the order of DPH > MDPH > DMDPH. The intermolecular interaction between the drug and PVP reflected not only the crystallinity of the drug in the GM but also the stability of the GM suspension. The size and stiffness of drug nanoparticles were evaluated using atomic force microscopy. Crystallization of the amorphous GM and agglomeration of the primary nanocrystals were observed in the DPH GM suspension. In contrast, primary nanocrystals were observed in the DMDPH GM suspension. The size of the drug nanocrystals formed from the different molecular states of the drug in the GM reflects the agglomerated states in water and stability. 相似文献

Acute and chronic Toxoplasma infections were evaluated in mice using stage specific antibodies and immunocytochemistry. Mice with acute toxoplasmosis were less active, had erectile body hair and seldom took food or water resulting in weight loss. All mice died within 7 days post-inoculation. The immunohistochemical technique enhanced visualization of parasites allowing their distribution to be accurately followed. Following intraperitoneal infection, tachyzoites were initially identified on the surface of the liver and spleen. There was a rapid increase in the number of tachyzoites associated with invasion from the surrounding connective tissue into the organs with formation of inflammatory lesions in the liver. The focal inflammatory lesions showed increasing numbers of tachyzoites with the period post-inoculation. Similar increases in tachyzoites were observed for the spleen. In contrast, only a few individual tachyzoites were seen in the brain at the final time point. In chronic infections, the mice were asymptomatic but tissue cysts containing large numbers of bradyzoites were observed in all brains with the average number of 295 tissue cysts per half brain and the average cystic size of 46.02 +/- 5.08 microm. By histology and immunostaining, the tissue cysts were readily identifiable along with a mild inflammatory cell infiltration into the meninges and perivascular cuffing. Double immunocytochemical labelling confirmed the exclusive presence of tachyzoites during the acute phase and bradyzoites during the chronic phase. 相似文献

An aqueous nanoparticle delivery system has been developed which employs the oppositely charged polymers polyethylenimine (PEI) and dextran sulfate (DS) with zinc as a stabilizer. It is found that the pH of PEI solutions, the weight ratio of the two polymers, and zinc sulfate concentrations all play significant roles in controlling particle size. Spherical particles of 250 nm mean diameter were produced under optimal conditions which have a zeta potential of approximately +30 mV. Up to 90% drug entrapment efficiency was observed when insulin was used as a model protein drug. No degradation products were detected during in vitro dissolution or in potency studies. Circular dichroism (CD) spectra showed no significant conformational changes compared to free insulin under optimized formulation conditions. Rapid release characteristics were observed in in vitro dissolution studies. Biological activity in steptozotocin-induced diabetic rats, however, exhibited a prolonged hypoglycemic effect. This system offers the following advantages: (1) ease of manufacturing under mild preparation conditions; (2) employment of completely aqueous processing conditions; (3) use of biocompatible polymers which can be prepared aseptically; (4) ability to control particle size; (5) a high level of drug entrapment and (6) an ability to preserve protein secondary structure and biological activity. 相似文献

Structural evaluation of probucol nanoparticles coground with polyvinylpyrrolidone K17 and sodium dodecyl sulfate for 90 min was performed by solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy (AFM) with force-distance curve analysis. The results of solid-state NMR indicated that the cogrinding changed crystalline probucol to amorphous form. The number-averaged mean heights of probucol particles in the ground mixture (GM) suspension were determined by AFM to be 6 and 15 nm for freshly prepared and 24h-stored samples, respectively. Nucleation and the subsequent crystal growth might have occurred after the GM was dispersed in water. The presence of probucol nanocrystals and agglomeration of the primary probucol nanoparticles were recognized by AFM force-distance curve analysis. AFM could be a promising tool to evaluate the structure of nanoparticles as well as their agglomeration behavior in aqueous media. 相似文献

A new 2/1 carbamazepine (CBZ)/malonic acid (MA) cocrystal polymorph form C was formed using a vibrational rod mill, whereas the known cocrystal polymorph form A was prepared using a ball mill. IR measurements showed that the interaction between CBZ and MA in cocrystal form C was formed by amide-carboxylic acid heterosynthons, similar to that in cocrystal form A. However, NMR results showed that the molecular states of CBZ at the dibenzazepine ring appeared to be different, which could be due to variation in either the conjugation of the aromatic rings or the π-π interaction of CBZ. Factors affecting the formation of cocrystal polymorphs, such as heat and force, were investigated to clarify the formation mechanism. 相似文献
