摘要
Entinostat plus exemestane in hormone receptor-positive (HR+) advanced breast cancer (ABC) previously showed encouraging outcomes. This multicenter phase 3 trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of entinostat plus exemestane in Chinese patients with HR + ABC that relapsed/progressed after ≥1 endocrine therapy. Patients were randomized (2:1) to oral exemestane 25 mg/day plus entinostat (n = 235) or placebo (n = 119) 5 mg/week in 28-day cycles. The primary endpoint was the independent radiographic committee (IRC)-assessed progression-free survival (PFS). The median age was 52 (range, 28-75) years and 222 (62.7%) patients were postmenopausal. CDK4/6 inhibitors and fulvestrant were previously used in 23 (6.5%) and 92 (26.0%) patients, respectively. The baseline characteristics were comparable between the entinostat and placebo groups. The median PFS was 6.32 (95% CI, 5.30-9.11) and 3.72 (95% CI, 1.91-5.49) months in the entinostat and placebo groups (HR, 0.76; 95% CI, 0.58-0.98; P = 0.046), respectively. Grade ≥3 adverse events (AEs) occurred in 154 (65.5%) patients in the entinostat group versus 23 (19.3%) in the placebo group, and the most common grade ≥3 treatment-related AEs were neutropenia [103 (43.8%)], thrombocytopenia [20 (8.5%)], and leucopenia [15 (6.4%)]. Entinostat plus exemestane significantly improved PFS compared with exemestane, with generally manageable toxicities in HR + ABC (ClinicalTrials.gov #NCT03538171).
摘要
Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and the main cause of cancer deaths among women worldwide. HER2 positive breast cancer accounts for 15% of all breast cancer. This subtype of breast cancer is highly invasive and has a very poor prognosis. With the development of anti - HER2 targeted therapy, the prognosis of these patients has been improved. However, some patients have poor response to the anti-HER2 therapy. Therefore, it is necessary to select biomarkers that can predict the therapeutic effect for improving the efficacy of these patients. This article describes the research progress of HER2 positive biomarkers for breast cancer, focusing on biomarkers related to the efficacy of targeted therapy, in order to provide some reference for future clinical optimization of targeted therapy.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the new management model of Good Clinical Practice (GCP)trial drug dispensing . METHODS:Base on the relevant experience of Pharmacy Intravenous Admixture Services (PIVAS)in daytime chemotherapy center(“daytime PIVAS ”for short )of our hospital ,the nodes and other matters needing attention were discussed in the workflow of confirmation and development of drug dispensing tasks for clinical trials. RESULTS :After the successful approval of the new clinical trial ,the supervisor of the sponsor and the principal investigator should first confirm whether the drugs involved in the project needed to be centrally dispensed in the daytime PIVAS ,and then submitted the relevant data to PIVAS for filing. Daytime PIVAS pharmacists could participate in trial drug dispensing of relevant projects only after starting training and authorization. After the doctor issued the medical order for the subjects in the hospital information system ,the research nurse took the drugs out of the GCP pharmacy and handed them to the daytime PIVAS drug receiving window. After receiving the drugs ,the pharmacist would check the dispensing ,and then the preparation pharmacist trained and authorized by the project team would mix and dispense the drugs. The reviewed pharmacist would check and label the prepared infusion. In addition ,daytime PIVAS would regularly summarize the feedback information on the trial drug dispensing and fund management in all links of dispensing process ,so as to improve the standardization of the process. CONCLUSIONS :Daytime PIVAS for clinical trial drug can arrange batches more rationally,ensure smooth and orderly infusion ,and meet different drug stability requirements ,which can improve trial drug dispensing management and further promote the development of drug clinical trial projects in China.

Poly ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors can block the repair of DNA single-strand breaks, and BRCA mutation can cause the loss of repair function of DNA double-strand damage in breast cancer cells. Therefore, PARP inhibitors are used to treat BRCA-mutant breast cancer by simultaneously blocking the repair of DNA single-strand breaks and DNA double-strand damage, which leads to the failure of DNA repair, resulting in the death of cancer cells. At present, a variety of PARP inhibitors have been developed that primarily inhibit PARP1 and PARP2 subtypes with high sensitivity and specificity. This review summarizes the mechanism of PARP inhibitors in the treatment of breast cancer with BRCA mutation, and states the progress of several reported PARP inhibitors used alone or in combination with commonly used chemotherapeutic agents for the treatment of advanced breast cancer.

Objective To evaluate the imaging performance and characteristics of peripheral primitive neuroectodermal tumors (pPNET), in order to raise awareness of the disease and the diagnostic accuracy. Methods Thirteen patients with pPNET who confirmed by puncture or pathology were enrolled in this study. The CT and MRI features were retrospectively analyzed. Four patients received simple routine CT examination, and 9 patients had MRI examination based on X-ray, CT examination. Results The part of body involved was more widely.Two patients occurred in the sinuses, 1 patient in the chest wall, 1 patient in the lung, and 3 patients in the abdominal and pelvic(1 patient involved the pelvic floor through the pelvic wall lesions to basins), 1 patient in the spine, and 5 patients located in the extremities. The characteristics of pPNET by CT and MRI in soft tissue of 8 patients showed single large soft tissue mass, and the biggest was 11.2 cm × 10.6 cm. In bonds and joints of 5 patients, CT and MRI showed wide range of soft tissue mass, mixed internal signal/density with obviously uneven enhancement, significant bone destruction and dissolvable osseous changes, and no obvious tumor bone and calcification. Conclusions Each site has its relative imaging characteristics of pPNET. CT and MRI can show lesions involving the scope, internal structure, with or without adjacent tissue invasion and metastasis, and provide guidance for clinical treatment and selecting treatment regimen. But in the end, it depends on the diagnosis of pathological and immunohistochemical examination.

摘要
Clopidogrel was believed to be superior to aspirin by the well-known CAPRIE trial. However, no other large clinical trials demonstrated the same results, but all focused on the combination use of clopidogrel with aspirin, and combination therapy in CREDO was called the "Emperor's New Clothes". However, no one overturned the results of these clinical trials by quantitatively analyzing them. We reviewed ten large-scale clinical trials about clopidogrel. On the basis of results of CAPRIE, CREDO and CHARISMA trials, we re-estimated their minimal sample sizes and their powers by three well-established statistical methodologies. From the results of CAPRIE, we inferred that the minimal sample size should be 85 086 or 84 968 but its power was only 30.70%. A huge gap existed. The same was also true of CREDO and CHARISMA trials. Moreover, in CAPRIE trial, 0 was included in the 95% confidence interval and 1 was included in the 95% confidence interval for the relative risk. There were some paradoxical data in CAPRIE trial. We are led to conclude that the results in CAPRIE, CREDO, and from the subgroup analysis in CHARISMA trials were questionable. These results failed to demonstrate that clopidogrel was superior to aspirin or that clopidogrel used in combination with aspirin was better than aspirin alone. The cost-effectiveness analyses by some previous studies were not reliable.

Background and purpose:hTERT is indistinct in the effect of neo-adjuvant chemotherapy. Our aim was to detect both expression of hTERT mRNA and protein in breast cancer tissue and their changes after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Methods:From Feb 2004 to Jun 2007, 53 cases with untreated advanced breast cancer were enrolled. All patients received CEF chemotherapy three cycles. The breast cancer tissue was collected before and after chemotherapy. hTERT mRNA and protein expression were detected by RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry techniques. Results:The positive hTERT mRNA and protein expression in breast cancer tissue before chemotherapy were 77.4% and 73.6% respectively, and after neo-adjuvant chemotherapy were 28.3%,22.6% respectively.The effective rate of the neo-adjuvant chemotherapy of the patients with positive of hTERT expression was higher than those with negative hTERT expression. Conclusion:The chemo-agents altered hTERT gene expression, improved negative rate of hTERT expression. Detecting expression of hTERT gene in breast cancer tissue would be an important index for predicting the effects of neo-adjuvant chemotherapy.
