Relevance: No information is available on the clinical use of ramucirumab during breastfeeding. Because ramucirumab is a large protein molecule with a molecular weight of about 147,000 Da, the amount in milk is likely to be very low.

Mutation-tailored treatment selection in non-small cell lung cancer patients in daily clinical practice - PubMed

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35461050/

Real-world data show NGS-based approaches to be superior to non-NGS. Uptake of molecular testing and the corresponding targeted treatments was less than expected based on guidelines and even more so...


Conclusion: Real-world data show NGS-based approaches to be superior to non-NGS. Uptake of molecular testing and the corresponding targeted treatments was less than expected based on guidelines and even more so for trials, off-label use and compassionate use, indicating less than optimal access to rational treatment options.

Analysis of patient reported outcomes included in the registrational clinical trials of nivolumab for advanced non-small cell lung cancer

Analysis of patient reported outcomes included in the registrational clinical trials of nivolumab for advanced non-small cell lung cancer

Source : https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S193652332200078X?via=ihub

Patients' perspectives are at the center of value-based oncology care. * Patient reported outcomes (PROs) guide clinical and regulatory decisions. * PRO instruments do not capture immune-related adverse events in...


Conclusion: Nivolumab alleviated symptom burden and improved health status of patients in the registrational clinical trials of advanced NSCLC. However, incapability of the included PRO instruments to measure immune-related AEs, differences in timing of PRO evaluation between treatment groups, incomplete patient participation at all time...

AKR1C1 promotes non-small cell lung cancer proliferation via crosstalk between HIF-1α and metabolic reprogramming - PubMed

AKR1C1 promotes non-small cell lung cancer proliferation via crosstalk between HIF-1α and metabolic reprogramming - PubMed

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35429904/

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) ranks first among cancer death worldwide. Despite efficacy and safety priority, targeted therapy only benefits ∼30% patients, leading to the unchanged survival rates for whole...


Conclusion: These newly acquired data not only establish the specific role for AKR1C1 in metabolic reprogramming, but also hint to the possibility that AKR1C1 may be a new therapeutic target for NSCLC treatment.
