RESUMEN

The development of polymer-modified asphalt (asphalt = asphalt binder) is significant because the polymer modifier can improve the performance of asphalt mixture and meet the requirements of the modern asphalt pavement. Herein, we present a novel polysiloxane-modified asphalt with enhanced performance, formed by simply mixing hydroxy-terminated polysiloxane (HO-PDMS) into base asphalt at 140 °C. The interaction mechanism of HO-PDMS in base asphalt was characterized by FT-IR, GPC, and DSC. It reveals that HO-PDMS polymers have been chemically bonded into the asphalt, and, thus, the resultant asphalt exhibits optimal compatibility and storage stability. The results based on fluorescence microscopy and a segregation test prove that HO-PDMS has good compatibility with base asphalt. Moreover, by virtue of the intriguing properties of polysiloxane, the present asphalt possesses improved low- and high-temperature properties, higher thermal stability, and enhanced hydrophobicity compared to conventional asphalt when using an appropriate dosage of HO-PDMS. DSC indicated that the Tg of modified asphalt (-12.8 °C) was obviously lower than that of base asphalt (-7.1 °C). DSR shows that the rutting parameter of modified asphalt was obviously higher than that of base asphalt. BBR shows that modified asphalt exhibited the lowest stiffness modulus and the highest creep rate with an HO-PDMS dosage of 6% and 4%, respectively. These results demonstrate that polysiloxane-modified asphalt can be promisingly utilized in realistic asphalt pavement with specific requirements, particularly high-/low-temperature resistance.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has spread all over the world resulting in high mortality, yet no specific antiviral treatment has been recommended. METHODS: A retrospective descriptive study was conducted involving 19 consecutive critically ill patients during January 27, 2020 to April 18, 2020. Ribavirin was given at 0.15g q8h orally upon ICU admission for 7 to 21 days. Here, 28-day mortality, lower respiratory tract specimens (ETA), and ribavirin side effect on the day of ICU admission (Day 1), Day 7, Day 14 and Day 21 were analyzed. RESULTS: All the nineteen critically ill COVID-19 patients (14 males and 5 females, median age 56yr) survived through to the 28th day of observations with 6 patients (31.58%) being discharged from the ICU. The SARS-CoV-2 viral positivity in sputum/ETA was 100% (19/19) on Day 1, 73.68% (14/19) on Day 7, 57.89% (11/19) on Day 14 and 36.84% (7/19) on Day 21. Ribavirin side effect was not observed in these patients. CONCLUSION: Ribavirin is well tolerated in critically ill patients with COVID-19 and may benefit COVID-19 patients through increasing the virus clearance.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: Peptide-conjugated phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomers (PPMOs) have shown promise in treating Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). We evaluated a semi-mechanistic pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) model to capture the relationship between plasma and muscle tissue exposure/response in mdx mice treated by mouse surrogate PPMO. METHODS: A single or repeated (every 4 weeks for 20 weeks) intravenous PPMO dose was administered to mdx mice (n = 6/timepoint). A PK/PD model was built to characterize data via sequential modeling. A 2-compartment model was used to describe plasma PK. A simultaneous tissue PK/PD model was subsequently developed: 2-compartment model to describe muscle PK; linked to an indirect response model describing stimulation of synthesis of skipped transcript, which was in turn linked to stimulation of synthesis of dystrophin protein expression. RESULTS: Model performance assessment via goodness-of-fit plots, visual predictive checks, and accurate parameter estimation indicated robust fits of plasma PK and muscle PK/PD data. The model estimated a PPMO tissue half-life of 5 days-a useful parameter in determining the longevity of PPMOs in tissue and their limited accumulation after multiple doses. Additionally, the model successfully described dystrophin expression after single dosing and associated protein accumulation after multiple dosing (increasing ~ twofold accumulation from the first to last dose). CONCLUSIONS: This first PK/PD model of a PPMO in a DMD disease model will help characterize and predict the time course of PK/PD biomarkers in mdx mice. Furthermore, the model framework can be used to develop clinical PK/PD models and can be extended to other exon-skipping therapies and species.

RESUMEN

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) was used to explore the effects of graphene modifier on the microstructure of asphalt. The morphologies of the before- and after-aged base asphalt and modified asphalt were performed and compared with analysis. The formation mechanism of asphaltic "bee structures" and the influence mechanism of graphene on asphalt were discussed from the classical theory of material science (phase transformation theory and diffusion theory). The results show that graphene facilitates the nucleation of "bee structures", resulting in an increasing number and decreasing volume of "bee structures" in modified asphalt. Additionally, the anti-aging performance of the modified asphalt improved significantly because of graphene incorporation.

RESUMEN

Background: Surrogate monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) used in preclinical in vivo studies can be challenging to quantify due to lack of suitable immunoaffinity reagents or unavailability of the mAb protein sequence. Generic immunoaffinity reagents were evaluated to develop sensitive LC-MS/MS assays. Peptides of unknown sequence can be used for selective LC-MS quantification. Results: anti-mouse IgG1 was found to be an effective immunoaffinity reagent, enabling quantification of mouse IgG1 mAbs in mouse serum. Selective peptides of unknown sequence were applied for multiplex LC-MS quantification of two rat mAbs co-dosed in mouse. Conclusion: Generic anti-mouse IgG subtype-specific antibodies can be used to improve assay sensitivity and peptides of unknown sequence can be used to quantify surrogate mAbs when the mAb protein sequence in unavailable.

RESUMEN

Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) binds to a family of sphingosine-1-phosphate G-protein-coupled receptors (S1P1-5). The interaction of S1P with these S1P receptors has a fundamental role in many physiological processes in the vascular and immune systems. Agonist-induced functional antagonism of S1P1 has been shown to result in lymphopenia. As a result, agonists of this type hold promise as therapeutics for autoimmune disorders. The previously disclosed differentiated S1P1 modulator BMS-986104 (1) exhibited improved preclinical cardiovascular and pulmonary safety profiles as compared to earlier full agonists of S1P1; however, it demonstrated a long pharmacokinetic half-life (T1/2 18 days) in the clinic and limited formation of the desired active phosphate metabolite. Optimization of this series through incorporation of olefins, ethers, thioethers, and glycols into the alkyl side chain afforded an opportunity to reduce the projected human T1/2 and improve the formation of the active phosphate metabolite while maintaining efficacy as well as the improved safety profile. These efforts led to the discovery of 12 and 24, each of which are highly potent, biased agonists of S1P1. These compounds not only exhibited shorter in vivo T1/2 in multiple species but are also projected to have significantly shorter T1/2 values in humans when compared to our first clinical candidate. In models of arthritis, treatment with 12 and 24 demonstrated robust efficacy.

RESUMEN

The discovery of a series of substituted diarylether compounds as retinoic acid related orphan receptor γt (RORγt) agonists is described. Compound 1 was identified from deck mining as a RORγt agonist. Hit-to-lead optimization led to the identification of lead compound 5, which possesses improved potency (10x). Extensive SAR exploration led to the identification of a potent and selective compound 22, that demonstrated an improved pharmacokinetic profile and a dose-dependent pharmacodynamic response. However, when dosed in a MC38 syngeneic tumor model, no evidence of efficacy was observed. ©2020 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: The aim of this study is to evaluate the incidence, risk factors, and prognosis of acute kidney injury (AKI) after lung transplantation (LTx). METHODS: Records of patients who underwent LTx in a single center were retrospectively reviewed. The prevalence of post-transplant AKI, the use of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), and the risk factors for AKI were investigated. The effects of AKI and CRRT on short-term outcomes and long-term survival were measured. RESULTS: This study included 148 patients, 67 of which developed postoperative AKI. Of these, 31 patients underwent CRRT; the percentage of cases with no AKI was 6.2%, and the percentage of cases with stage 1, 2, and 3 who used CRRT was 0%, 10%, and 86.2%, respectively. Patients with AKI had significantly higher intensive care unit mortality and in-hospital mortality. The 1-year post-LTx survival rate of patients with AKI was 47.8%, significantly lower than those without AKI (74.1%). There was no difference in 1-year survival rate of those with stage 1 and stage 2 AKI, but patients with stage 3 AKI showed the worst survival. Patients who underwent CRRT had an inferior survival outcome (9.7% vs 76.1%, P < .05). We found that higher acute physiologic assessment and chronic health evaluation (APACHE) II scores (odds ratio [OR] 1.082, P = .009) and higher intraoperative fluid balance (OR 1.001, P = .012) were independent risk factors, and female sex (OR 2.539) and pulmonary hypertension (OR 2.869) were potential risk factors for post-LTx AKI. A prediction model integration of the above factors showed a good concordance with actual risks and had a concordance index (C-index) of 0.76 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.66-0.87). CONCLUSION: Severe AKI requiring CRRT had a negative impact on the short-term and long-term outcomes of patients.

RESUMEN

Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) binding to the S1P-1 receptor (S1P1R) controls the egress of lymphocytes from lymphoid organs and targets modulation of immune responses in autoimmune diseases. Pharmacologic modulation of S1P receptors has been linked to heart rate reduction. BMS-986166, a prodrug of the active phosphorylated metabolite BMS-986166-P, presents an improved cardiac safety profile in preclinical studies compared to other S1P1R modulators. The pharmacokinetics, safety, and pharmacodynamics of BMS-986166 versus placebo after single (0.75-5.0 mg) and repeated (0.25-1.5 mg/day) oral administration were assessed in healthy participants after a 1-day lead-in placebo period. A population model was developed to jointly describe BMS-986166 and BMS-986166-P pharmacokinetics and predict individual exposures. Inhibitory sigmoid models described the relationships between average daily BMS-986166-P concentrations and nadir of time-matched (day -1) placebo-corrected heart rate on day 1 (nDDHR, where DD represents ∆∆) and nadir of absolute lymphocyte count (nALC). Predicted decreases in nDDHR and nALC were 9 bpm and 20% following placebo, with maximum decreases of 10 bpm in nDDHR due to drug effect, and approximately 80% in nALC due to drug and placebo. A 0.5-mg/day dose regimen achieves the target 65% reduction in nALC associated with a 2-bpm decrease in nDDHR over placebo.

RESUMEN

The present study was to investigate the effect of mesenteric lymph duct drainage on lung inflammatory response, histological alteration, and endothelial cell apoptosis in septic rats. Animals were randomly assigned into four groups: control, sham surgery, sepsis, and sepsis plus mesenteric lymph drainage. We used the colon ascendens stent peritonitis (CASP) procedure to induce the septic model in rats, and mesenteric lymph drainage was performed with a polyethylene (PE) catheter inserted into mesenteric lymphatic. The animals were sacrificed at the end of CASP in 6 h. The mRNA expression levels of inflammatory mediators were measured by qPCR, and the histologic damage were evaluated by the pathological score method. It was found that mesenteric lymph drainage significantly reduced the expression of TNF-α, IL-1ß, and IL-6 mRNA in the lung. Pulmonary interstitial edema and infiltration of inflammatory cells were alleviated by mesenteric lymph drainage. Moreover, increased mRNA levels of TNF-α, IL-1ß, IL-6 mRNA, and apoptotic rate were observed in PMVECs treated with septic lymph. These results indicate that mesenteric lymph duct drainage significantly attenuated lung inflammatory injury by decreasing the expression of pivotal inflammatory mediators and inhibiting endothelial apoptosis to preserve the pulmonary barrier function in septic rats.

RESUMEN

Efforts aimed at increasing the in vivo potency and reducing the elimination half-life of 1 and 2 led to the identification of aryl ether and thioether-derived bicyclic S1P1 differentiated modulators 3-6. The effects of analogs 3-6 on lymphocyte reduction in the rat (desired pharmacology) along with pulmonary- and cardiovascular-related effects (undesired pharmacology) are described. Optimization of the overall properties in the aryl ether series yielded 3d, and the predicted margin of safety against the cardiovascular effects of 3d would be large enough for human studies. Importantly, compared to 1 and 2, compound 3d had a better profile in both potency (ED50 < 0.05 mg/kg) and predicted human half-life (t 1/2 ∼ 5 days).

RESUMEN

In recent years, the incidence of lung cancer has been increasing. Lung cancer detection is based on computed tomography (CT) imaging of the lung area to determine whether there are pulmonary nodules. And then judge what's good and what's bad. However, due to the traditional way of manual reading and lack of experience and other problems. This leads to visual fatigue and misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis. In order to detect pulmonary nodules early and accurately, a new assistant diagnosis method for pulmonary nodules is proposed. Firstly, the image is preprocessed and denoised by median filter, the lung parenchyma is segmented by random walk algorithm and the region of interest is extracted, and then, according to the continuity of the CT slices, the texture feature extraction method of pulmonary nodules based on volume local direction ternary pattern is used to extract the features. Finally, the pulmonary nodules are identified and classified by the assistant diagnosis model of pulmonary nodules based on Stacking algorithm. In order to illustrate the validity of the diagnosis model, the experiments are carried out by cross-validation of ten folds. Experiments using data from LIDC database show that the accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of the proposed method are 82.2%, 85.7%, and 78.8%, respectively. Texture Recognition method based on volume vocal direction ternary pattern is feasible for the identification of pulmonary nodules and provides a reference value for doctor-assisted diagnosis.

RESUMEN

CuCo2O4 decoration carbon nanofibers (CNFs) as an enzyme-free glucose sensor were fabricated via electrospinning technology and carbonization treatment. The CNFs with advantages of abundant nitrogen amounts, porosity, large surface area, and superior electrical conductivity were used as an ideal matrix for CuCo2O4 decoration. The resultant CuCo2O4-CNF hybrids possessed favorable properties of unique three-dimensional architecture and good crystallinity, accompanied by the CuCo2O4 nanoparticles uniformly growing on the CNF skeleton. To further enhance the selective molecular recognition capacity of the developed sensor, a conductive film was synthesized through the electropolymerization of thiophene and thiophene-3-boronic acid (TBA). Based on the synergistic effects of the performances of CNFs, CuCo2O4 nanoparticles, and boronic acid-decorated polythiophene layer, the obtained poly(thiophene-3-boronic acid) (PTBA)/CuCo2O4-CNF-modified electrodes (PTBA/CuCo2O4-CNFs/glassy carbon electrode (GCE)) displayed prominent electrocatalytic activity toward electro-oxidation of glucose. The fabricated sensor presented an outstanding performance in the two linear ranges of 0.01-0.5 mM and 0.5-1.5 mM, with high selectivity of 2932 and 708 µA·mM-1·cm-2, respectively. The composite nanofibers also possessed good stability, repeatability, and excellent anti-interference selectivity toward the common interferences. All these results demonstrate that the proposed composite nanofibers hold great potential in the application of constructing an enzyme-free glucose sensing platform.

RESUMEN

Substituted benzyloxy aryl compound 2 was identified as an RORγt agonist. Structure based drug design efforts resulted in a potent and selective tricyclic compound 19 which, when administered orally in an MC38 mouse tumor model, demonstrated a desired pharmacokinetic profile as well as a dose-dependent pharmacodynamic response. However, no perceptible efficacy was observed in this tumor model at the doses investigated.

RESUMEN

BMS-986184 is a human, second-generation, anti-interferon-γ-induced protein 10 (IP-10) monoclonal antibody. In this study the pharmacokinetics and target engagement (TE) of BMS-986184 in healthy participants were characterized using population-based target-mediated drug disposition (TMDD) modeling and data from a first-in-human study (NCT02864264). The results of the first-in-human study and the model generated were used to conduct stochastic simulations of a virtual population of healthy participants to predict pharmacokinetic exposures and TE responses for different dosage regimens. A 2-compartment, 2-target, TMDD structural model, assuming quasi-steady-state and stimulated production on treatment, was developed by simultaneous fitting of the total drug, serum-free IP-10, and serum total IP-10 concentration data, with the second unobservable target contribution to drug elimination described by the Michaelis-Menten elimination term. Model evaluation confirmed agreement between model predictions and observed data. Simulation of a virtual population of healthy individuals demonstrated that steady state was reached at the eighth dosing interval, and that around 150 mg subcutaneously every other week could be a suitable target dosage regimen for future clinical trials. Integrated modeling strategies such as this can be used to help guide rational clinical trial development of drugs with TMDD, leading to improved dose selection and greater patient benefits.

RESUMEN

As a member of the Janus (JAK) family of nonreceptor tyrosine kinases, TYK2 plays an important role in mediating the signaling of pro-inflammatory cytokines including IL-12, IL-23, and type 1 interferons. The nicotinamide 4, identified by a SPA-based high-throughput screen targeting the TYK2 pseudokinase domain, potently inhibits IL-23 and IFNα signaling in cellular assays. The described work details the optimization of this poorly selective hit (4) to potent and selective molecules such as 47 and 48. The discoveries described herein were critical to the eventual identification of the clinical TYK2 JH2 inhibitor (see following report in this issue). Compound 48 provided robust inhibition in a mouse IL-12-induced IFNγ pharmacodynamic model as well as efficacy in an IL-23 and IL-12-dependent mouse colitis model. These results demonstrate the ability of TYK2 JH2 domain binders to provide a highly selective alternative to conventional TYK2 orthosteric inhibitors.

RESUMEN

Small molecule JAK inhibitors have emerged as a major therapeutic advancement in treating autoimmune diseases. The discovery of isoform selective JAK inhibitors that traditionally target the catalytically active site of this kinase family has been a formidable challenge. Our strategy to achieve high selectivity for TYK2 relies on targeting the TYK2 pseudokinase (JH2) domain. Herein we report the late stage optimization efforts including a structure-guided design and water displacement strategy that led to the discovery of BMS-986165 (11) as a high affinity JH2 ligand and potent allosteric inhibitor of TYK2. In addition to unprecedented JAK isoform and kinome selectivity, 11 shows excellent pharmacokinetic properties with minimal profiling liabilities and is efficacious in several murine models of autoimmune disease. On the basis of these findings, 11 appears differentiated from all other reported JAK inhibitors and has been advanced as the first pseudokinase-directed therapeutic in clinical development as an oral treatment for autoimmune diseases.

RESUMEN

In sharp contrast to a previously reported series of 6-anilino imidazopyridazine based Tyk2 JH2 ligands, 6-((2-oxo-N1-substituted-1,2-dihydropyridin-3-yl)amino)imidazo[1,2-b]pyridazine analogs were found to display dramatically improved metabolic stability. The N1-substituent on 2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridine ring can be a variety of alkyl, aryl, and heteroaryl groups, but among them, 2-pyridyl provided much enhanced Caco-2 permeability, attributed to its ability to form intramolecular hydrogen bonds. Further structure-activity relationship studies at the C3 position led to the identification of highly potent and selective Tyk2 JH2 inhibitor 6, which proved to be highly effective in inhibiting IFNγ production in a rat pharmacodynamics model and fully efficacious in a rat adjuvant arthritis model.

RESUMEN

Recently, our research group reported the identification of BMS-986104 (2) as a differentiated S1P1 receptor modulator. In comparison to fingolimod (1), a full agonist of S1P1 currently marketed for the treatment of relapse remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS), 2 offers several potential advantages having demonstrated improved safety multiples in preclinical evaluations against undesired pulmonary and cardiovascular effects. In clinical trials, 2 was found to exhibit a pharmacokinetic half-life ( T1/2) longer than that of 1, as well as a reduced formation of the phosphate metabolite that is required for activity against S1P1. Herein, we describe our efforts to discover highly potent, partial agonists of S1P1 with a shorter T1/2 and increased in vivo phosphate metabolite formation. These efforts culminated in the discovery of BMS-986166 (14a), which was advanced to human clinical evaluation. The pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) relationship as well as pulmonary and cardiovascular safety assessments are discussed. Furthermore, efficacy of 14a in multiple preclinical models of autoimmune diseases are presented.

RESUMEN

Purpose: The ganglioside fucosyl-GM1 (FucGM1) is a tumor-associated antigen expressed in a large percentage of human small cell lung cancer (SCLC) tumors, but absent in most normal adult tissues, making it a promising target in immuno-oncology. This study was undertaken to evaluate the preclinical efficacy of BMS-986012, a novel, nonfucosylated, fully human IgG1 antibody that binds specifically to FucGM1.Experimental Design: The antitumor activity of BMS-986012 was evaluated in in vitro assays using SCLC cells and in mouse xenograft and syngeneic tumor models, with and without chemotherapeutic agents and checkpoint inhibitors.Results: BMS-986012 showed a high binding affinity for FcγRIIIa (CD16), which resulted in enhanced antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) against FucGM1-expressing tumor cell lines. BMS-986012-mediated tumor cell killing was also observed in complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) and antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP) assays. In several mouse SCLC models, BMS-986012 demonstrated efficacy and was well tolerated. In the DMS79 xenograft model, tumor regression was achieved with BMS-986012 doses of 0.3 mg/kg and greater; antitumor activity was enhanced when BMS-986012 was combined with standard-of-care cisplatin or etoposide. In a syngeneic model, tumors derived from a genetically engineered model of SCLC were treated with BMS-986012 or anti-FucGM1 with a mouse IgG2a Fc and their responses evaluated; when BMS-986012 was combined with anti-PD-1 or anti-CD137 antibody, therapeutic responses significantly improved.Conclusions: Single-agent BMS-986012 demonstrated robust antitumor activity, with the addition of chemotherapeutic or immunomodulatory agents further inhibiting SCLC growth in the same models. These preclinical data supported evaluation of BMS-986012 in a phase I clinical trial of patients with relapsed, refractory SCLC. Clin Cancer Res; 24(20); 5178-89. ©2018 AACR.
