不同体质量指数对腹腔镜结直肠癌切除术患者临床疗效和远期预后的影响

摘要 目的：研究不同体质量指数（BMI）对腹腔镜结直肠癌切除术患者临床疗效和远期预后的影响。方法：将从2014年1月～2016年1月于我院接受腹腔镜结直肠癌切除术治疗的110例患者纳入研究。将所有受试者根据BMI的差异分作正常组（18.6 kg/m²≦BMI<23.0 kg/m²）35例、超重组（23.0 kg/m²≦BMI<25.0 kg/m²）53例、肥胖组（BMI≧25.0 kg/m²）22例。分析三组患者各项基线资料,临床疗效,术后并发症发生情况,远期预后等方面的差异。结果：三组患者各项基线资料比较差异均不明显（均P＞0.05）。肥胖组手术时长为（268.01±36.14）min,均明显高于正常组、超重组的（211.73±30.56）min、（224.12±34.87）min（均P＜0.05）;三组术中失血量、肛门排气时间以及住院康复时间对比均不明显（均P＞0.05）。三组患者术后肺部感染、下肢静脉血栓、切口感染以及吻合口出血发生率对比均不明显（均P＞0.05）。正常组5年生存率为45.71%（16/35）,超重组5年生存率为47.17%（25/53）,肥胖组5年生存率为45.45%（10/22）,三组比较差异无统计学意义（均P＞0.05）。结论：不同BMI对腹腔镜结直肠癌切除术患者的手术时长具有一定影响,但和远期预后无关,值得临床重点关注。

A novel dominant-negative PD-1 armored anti-CD19 CAR T cell is safe and effective against refractory/relapsed B cell lymphoma

Refractory/relapsed B cell lymphoma patients who received the available anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells may still experience a short duration of remission. Here in this study, we evaluated the safety and efficacy of a novel dominant-negative programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) armored anti-CD19 CAR T cells. A total of 9 patients (including 4 diffuse large B cell lymphomas, DLBCL, 2 transformed follicular lymphomas, TFL, and 3 follicular lymphomas, FL) received the novel CAR T cells infusion at a dose of more than 1 × 10⁶/kg. Grade ≥ 3 cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and neurotoxicity were observed in 11.1% (n = 1/9) and 11.1% (n = 1/9) of patients, respectively. The overall response rate (ORR) was 77.8% (n = 7/9) and complete response (CR) rate was 55.6% (n = 5/9). Two patients have ongoing CR (all at 20+ months). CAR T cells expanded after infusion and continued to be detectable at 12+ months in patients with ongoing CR. This novel CD19-CAR T cell was safe and effective with durable remissions in patients with refractory/relapsed B cell lymphoma.     

Hepatocellular cancer therapy in patients with HIV infection: Disparities in cancer care,trials enrolment,and cancer-related research

In the highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) era, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is arising as a common late complication of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, with a great impact on morbidity and mortality. Though HIV infection alone may not be sufficient to promote hepatocarcinogenesis, the complex interaction of HIV with hepatitis is a main aspect influencing HCC morbidity and mortality.Data about sorafenib effectiveness and safety in HIV-infected patients are limited, particularly for patients who are on HAART. However, in properly selected subgroups, outcomes may be comparable to those of HIV-uninfected patients. Scarce data are available for those other systemic treatments, either tyrosine kinase inhibitors, as well as immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), which have been added to our therapeutic armamentarium. This review examines the influence of HIV infection on HCC development and natural history, summarizes main data on systemic therapies, offers some insight into possible mechanisms of T cell exhaustion and reversal of HIV latency with ICIs and issues about clinical trials enrollment. Nowadays, routine exclusion of HIV-infected patients from clinical trial participation is totally inappropriate, since it leaves a number of patients deprived of life-prolonging therapies.     

Clinical relevance of oncogenic driver mutations identified in endometrial carcinoma

PurposeEndometrial carcinoma (EC) is a clinically heterogeneous disease characterized by a number of different histological subtypes, and its heterogeneity may be involved in the accumulation of multiple genetic alterations. The aim of this work was to investigate the comprehensive mutational profile of EC tumors, and examine the associations between somatic mutations and clinicopathological features or survival in EC patients.MethodsA total of 100 surgical tumors were obtained from EC patients who had previously undergone surgery. Genomic DNA samples extracted from fresh-frozen tissues were analyzed using the Ion AmpliSeq Cancer Hotspot Panel v2 Kit, covering 50 tumor-related genes.ResultsValidated mutations were detected in 91 of the 100 tumors (91%) and identified in eight of the most frequently mutated genes, namely PTEN (57%), PIK3CA (51%), TP53 (30%), KRAS (23%), CTNNB1 (21%), FBFR2 (13%), FBXW7(10%) and RB1 (9%). PTEN mutations were found to associated with young age (< 60), early-stage, endometrioid histology, non-recurrence and better overall survival (OS). CTNNB1 mutations were associated with young age, endometrioid histology and better OS. On the other hands, TP53 mutations were associated with late-stage, non-endometrioid histology, high-grade, recurrence and worse OS. FBWX7 mutations were associated with late-stage, vascular invasion and lymph node metastasis. FGFR2 mutations correlated with deep (≥ 1/2) myometrial invasion.ConclusionOur comprehensive mutational profile will be useful for understanding and evaluating the molecular characteristics of EC tumors, and may lead to the establishment of novel treatment strategies that improve the survival of patients with EC in the future.     

Targeting mesenchymal stem cell therapy for severe pneumonia patients

Pneumonia is the inflammation of the lungs and it is the world’s leading cause of death for children under 5 years of age.The latest coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)virus is a prominent culprit to severe pneumonia.With the pandemic running rampant for the past year,more than 1590000 deaths has occurred worldwide up to December 2020 and are substantially attributable to severe pneumonia and induced cytokine storm.Effective therapeutic approaches in addition to the vaccines and drugs under development are hence greatly sought after.Therapies harnessing stem cells and their derivatives have been established by basic research for their versatile capacity to specifically inhibit inflammation due to pneumonia and prevent alveolar/pulmonary fibrosis while enhancing antibacterial/antiviral immunity,thus significantly alleviating the severe clinical conditions of pneumonia.In recent clinical trials,mesenchymal stem cells have shown effectiveness in reducing COVID-19-associated pneumonia morbidity and mortality;positioning these cells as worthy candidates for combating one of the greatest challenges of our time and shedding light on their prospects as a nextgeneration therapy to counter future challenges.     

Clinical considerations in study designs that use cotinine as a biomarker

Subjects enrolled in studies are not always screened for routine habits such as smoking. Personal history is not always reliable and therefore an objective biomarker is necessary to screen for smokers. The objectives of this article were to review the metabolism of nicotine and other metabolic considerations associated with smoking; to review some of the routine methods used to assess exposure to nicotine-containing products; to revisit cotinine breakpoints utilized to distinguish smokers from non-smokers during screening for clinical trials; to assess the utility of screening questions regarding smoking practices; and to recommend standards for clinical pharmacology studies. The results indicated that cotinine levels serve as a useful biomarker of tobacco exposure; racial issues may be clinically relevant in determining smoking status; cessation of smoking should occur at least 14 days prior to the start of the study; adverse effects from nicotine withdrawal such as craving, hunger and weight gain may persist for more than 6 months; potential metabolic interactions via cytochrome P2A6 and P1A2 need to be considered when designing a study; and the use of a single calibrator as a breakpoint is acceptable if a categorical outcome such as 'smoker' versus 'non-smoker' is desired. Nicotine from food products is not expected to impact assay sensitivity or to be clinically relevant; a serum cotinine concentration of 10 ng ml^?1 be employed as a breakpoint for non-smokers versus smokers; other non-invasive alternatives are collection of urine, saliva, or hair (with suggested breakpoints of 200 ng ml^?1, 5 ng ml^?1 and 0.3 ng mg^?1, respectively; screening questions be accompanied by testing for cotinine; and the inclusion of smokers in studies should be considered once the impact of smoking on the targeted population is understood.
