Efficacy and safety of fruquintinib combined with albumin‐bound paclitaxel as second‐line therapy for advanced gastric cancer following failure of PD‐1 inhibitor‐containing treatment (TACTIC GC‐01): A phase II single‐arm study

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Anti‐angiogenic drugs have shown promising efficacy as a second‐line treatment for advanced gastric cancer. However, it remains unclear how alterations in the tumor microenvironment following first‐line immunotherapy may impact tumor angiogenesis and influence subsequent therapeutic outcomes. This single‐arm study prospectively explored the

Oat β‐Glucan and Galactooligosaccharides Influence Gallstone Formation by Modulating the Gut Microbiota, Particularly Desulfovibrionales

iMetaMed, EarlyView.
Oat β‐glucan and galactooligosaccharides influence the formation of gallstones by modulating the gut microbiota, particularly the abundance of Desulfovibrionales. The primary mechanism involves metabolic byproducts associated with Desulfovibrionales inhibiting hepatic bile acid synthesis via both the hepatic FXR–SHP and intestinal FXR–FGF15 signaling ...
