Clinical Effectiveness of Erlova in EGFR-Mutated Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: An Affordable Price with Clinical Benefit

Background: Thyrosin kinase inhibitors (TKIs) is approved for the first line treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with  epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation. This study performed to assess clinical effectiveness and safety of Erlova (generic form of Erlotinib). Methods: Somatic mutations of EGFR gene were studied in tumor tissue by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and bi-directional sequencing in 513 chemonaive and histologically verified lung adenocarcinoma Iranian patients. Patients  with EGFR mutation received Erlova at 150 mg/day  as first line treatment. Primary endpoint was progression free survival (PFS). Results: About 21% (n=109) cases had EGFR mutation. Most EGFR mutations were  occurred at exon 19. Among them, sixty nine patients treated with Erlova. Median PFS was 11.4 months and objective response rate (ORR) was about  88%. Most frequent treatment related adverse events was  skin rash. Conclusion: Our findings showed Erlova had remarkable effectiveness. In  mutation-positive patients with EGFR, Erlova can be used  safely instead of  other tyrosine-kinase inhibitors.

Proteomic Profiling of Small Extracellular Vesicles Isolated from the Plasma of Vietnamese Patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Reveals Some Potential Biomarkers

Background: Considering the poor prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the objective of this study was to examine the potential of plasma-derived vesicles as a source of lung cancer-specific proteins. Extracellular vesicle (EV) cargos are specific to the source cells, hence they have the potential of being a source of cancer-specific proteins.  Methods: The proteins differently expressed in cancer were determined and derived from EVs isolated from the plasma of NSCLC patients at the National Lung Hospital. To this end, purification was done using gel filtration chromatography and ultracentrifugation. In addition, nano liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) was used for analyzing. Results: Fifty-seven EV-derived proteins related to NSCLC were highlighted in this research. Some of them have not been addressed before, such as EEF1A1 (elongation factor 1-α1), KPNB1 (Importin subunit beta 1), SRC (proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase) and ACTC1 (actin, alpha cardiac muscle 1). This list was further confirmed through a comparison with ExoCarta and Vesiclepedia. Conclusion: This study is the first work to show the involvement of several novel proteins of small EV (EEF1A1, KPNB1, SRC, and ACTC1) in the progression of NSCLC. The results suggested that they could serve as novel biomarkers for non-small cell lung cancer in the future.     

中医药治疗动脉粥样硬化临床研究进展

中医药防治动脉粥样硬化的研究具有良好的实践基础和应用前景,治疗方法可归于四类,即活血化瘀、化痰调脂、痰瘀同治、扶正祛邪,研究者辨证施治,多在临床上取得了满意的疗效。目前研究仍存在一些亟待解决的问题:首先,中医药防治动脉粥样硬化临床研究重复性差,缺乏大样本、多中心、高质量的临床研究及系统深入的实验研究;其次,对专家经验方及中药复方研究不够深入,临床药效物质基础不明确,缺乏对其作用机制的深入挖掘;再次,目前的研究不够系统和全面,主要集中在对动脉粥样硬化的形成和发展过程的研究,对斑块易损性研究相对较少。针对上述问题,今后应加强中医药治疗动脉粥样硬化的基础及临床研究,为治疗提供更加明确的理论依据和临床证据;同时,建立具有中医特色的研究模式,以中医宏观辨证理论为指导,利用现代医学技术,参考现代中药药理实验结果选药组方,扩大辨证选药思路,加强对中药方剂配伍规律的研究,以及对其有效成分的分离提取、鉴定和作用机制研究,并将传统组方理论与针对发病机制的对病治疗相结合,多角度、多层次探索中医药的作用机理。此外,应不断深入探索动脉粥样硬化的发病机制,并结合细胞工程、分子生物学及基因科学,积极研究中医药的药效学基础和机制。

目的 了解国内三家医院临床确诊隐球菌病的分布、药敏试验、临床特点以及抗生素治疗等，提高临床对隐球菌病临床特征的认识。方法 回顾性分析2018 ～ 2019 年国内三家医疗机构33 例确诊隐球菌病患者的临床表现、治疗、预后及实验室检查和药敏结果。结果 33 例隐球菌病患者（男性25 例，女性8 例）平均年龄50.4±12.6 岁，10 例无基础疾病。33 株隐球菌中新生隐球菌31 株，格特隐球菌2 株，其中16 株(48.5%) 来自脑脊液，7 株(21.2%) 来自肺穿组织。常见的中枢神经系统的临床症状有发热18 例，头痛14 例，恶心呕吐9 例。药敏结果显示，所有菌株对两性霉素B、氟康唑、伊曲康唑和伏立康唑均没有获得耐药；1 株对氟胞嘧啶有获得性耐药。脑隐球菌病主要选择两性霉素B 进行治疗，肺隐球菌病选择氟康唑，好转15 例，死亡3 例，转院8 例，另有7 例未经治疗转院。结论 隐球菌对人类致病的主要是新生隐球菌和格特隐球菌。中枢神经系统症状以发热、头痛和恶心呕吐最常见，单纯肺隐球菌病无典型的中枢神经系统的症状；绝大多数菌株均没有获得耐药；临床应重视病原学检测，及时使用抗真菌治疗，对疾病的诊治和预后十分重要。     

Prevalence of HER2 Expression and Its Correlation with Clinicopathological Parameters in Gastric or Gastroesophageal Junction Adenocarcinoma in North-East Indian Population

Objective: Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (erbb2/HER2) overexpression, has now been implicatedin advanced gastric and gastroesophageal junction cancers. The study was conducted to determine the rate of HER2positivity in patients with locally advanced or metastatic gastric and gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma in North-EastIndia and to assess the impact of various demographic and clinical parameters on HER2 positivity. Methods: A total of68 patients of age >18 years of gastric and gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma diagnosed on histopathological examinationfrom September 2016 to February 2018 at Dr B Borooah Cancer Institute, Assam were enrolled for the observational(epidemiological) study. All patients were subjected to the HER2 immunohistochemistry test using a FDA-approved,standardized test kit. HER2 expression was correlated with various demographic and clinicopathological parameters.Results: The overall rate of HER2 positivity in the population studied was 56% (n=38). The rate was non-significantlyhigher in male, older age group (>60 years) and Hindu population. Similarly, HER2 positivity rate was higher in patientswith well differentiated histology and was more common in patients with stage II and III diseases, but neither of theassociations is statistically significant. HER2 positivity rate was significantly higher in proximal and in GEJ tumours(56% versus 44%, P=0.002). Conclusion: HER2 overexpression was evident in 56% of the North-East Indian patientswith locally advanced and metastatic gastric and gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma. The overexpression correlatedsignificantly with primary tumour site. Routine testing of gastric and gastroesophageal tumours for HER2 expressionis recommended to provide a therapeutic advantage in Indian patients.     

比较手术夹闭和介入栓塞治疗颅内未破裂动脉瘤安全性和有效性的Meta分析

目的比较手术夹闭和介入栓塞治疗颅内未破裂动脉瘤的安全性和有效性。方法计算机检索1990至2018年颅内未破裂动脉瘤的所有临床对照研究。两名研究员分别纳入研究、提取数据、质量评价并应用Rev Man5. 0软件进行数据处理。结果最终纳入21篇文献,病例数109114例。Meta分析结果提示:手术夹闭组动脉瘤闭塞率为88. 2%,平均住院时间7. 7天,均高于介入栓塞组的65. 3%和4. 1天,P 0. 05。介入组患者的短期死亡率和致残率分别为0. 61%和2. 1%,均低于手术组的1. 27%和4. 7%,P 0. 05。介入组患者的1年期死亡率和致残率(2. 5%、2. 5%)均与手术组(2. 2%、1. 8%)无明显差异,P 0. 05。漏斗图未发现发表偏倚。敏感性分析结果一致。结论介入栓塞相比于手术夹闭可缩短患者的住院时间,降低患者的短期不良预后发生率。但是动脉瘤的闭塞率较低,1年期预后与手术夹闭无明显差异。据此推测手术夹闭患者的长期预后可能要好于介入栓塞,手术夹闭更适合于年轻患者。
