RESUMEN
Objective: This study aimed to assess the clinical efficacy of combining multi-slice spiral CT with gastrointestinal angiography for diagnosing gastric cancer. Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of clinical data from 151 patients with suspected gastric cancer admitted to our hospital between January 2014 and January 2022. Among them, 70 patients underwent multi-slice spiral CT alone (control group), while the remaining 81 patients underwent multi-slice spiral CT in combination with gastrointestinal barium contrast (combination group). Finally, pathological examination confirmed gastric cancer in 81 patients. We analyzed the diagnostic efficacy of multi-slice spiral CT combined with gastrointestinal angiography for staging gastric cancer and detecting lymph node metastasis. Results: The sensitivity and accuracy of diagnosing gastric cancer using multi-slice spiral CT combined with gastrointestinal angiography were significantly superior to CT alone (P < .05). This combined approach exhibited substantial advancements in detecting stage I and II tumors compared to a single CT, although the difference in stage III detection rate was marginal (P < .05). Furthermore, among the 81 gastric cancer cases, 67 were confirmed to have lymph node metastasis through surgical and pathological examination. The lymph node detection rate with multi-slice spiral CT combined with gastrointestinal angiography was significantly higher than that achieved with single CT (P < .05). Conclusions: Combining multi-slice spiral CT with gastrointestinal angiography proved to be an effective diagnostic strategy for gastric cancer.

Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) plays a significant role in DNA repair responses; therefore, this enzyme is targeted by PARP inhibitors in cancer therapy. Here we have developed a number of fused tetra- or pentacyclic dihydrodiazepinoindolone derivatives with excellent PARP enzymatic and cellular PARylation inhibition activities. These efforts led to the identification of pamiparib (BGB-290, 139), which displays excellent PARP-1 and PARP-2 inhibition with IC50 of 1.3 and 0.9 nM, respectively. In a cellular PARylation assay, this compound inhibits PARP activity with IC50 = 0.2 nM. Cocrystal of pamiparib shows similar binding sites with PARP with other PARP inhibitors, but pamiparib is not a P-gp substrate and shows excellent drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics (DMPK) properties with significant brain penetration (17-19%, mice). The compound is currently being investigated in phase III clinical trials as a maintenance therapy in platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer and gastric cancer.
