Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio as a prognostic factor for patients with metastatic or recurrent breast cancer treated using capecitabine: a retrospective study

BMC Cancer, 2022
Background Eribulin or capecitabine monotherapy is the next cytotoxic chemotherapy option for patients with metastatic or recurrent breast cancer who have previously received an anthracycline or a taxane. However, it is unclear what factors can guide the

Targeting the CD47–SIRPα phagocytic checkpoint in cancer: Biology, translational opportunities, and next‐generation therapeutic strategies

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
The CD47–SIRPα axis has emerged as a critical innate immune checkpoint that suppresses macrophage‐mediated phagocytosis through a canonical “don't eat me” signal and enables tumor immune evasion. We comprehensively summarize the structural and biological features of CD47 and the molecular mechanisms underlying CD47‐mediated regulation of phagocytosis ...

Use of omeprazole, the proton pump inhibitor, as a potential therapy for the capecitabine-induced hand-foot syndrome

Scientific Reports, 2021
Hand-foot syndrome (HFS), also known as palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia (PPE), is a major side effect of capecitabine. Although the pathogenesis of HFS remains unknown, some studies suggested a potential involvement of inflammation in its pathogenesis.

Impact of Metformin and Diabetes on Tumor Response to Total Neoadjuvant Therapy in Advanced Rectal Cancer: A Multicenter Retrospective Cohort Study

Asia-Pacific Journal of Clinical Oncology, EarlyView.
In advanced rectal cancer patients receiving total neoadjuvant therapy (TNT), overall tumor response did not differ by diabetes status or metformin use. However, among diabetic patients, metformin use was associated with higher overall complete response rates. These findings suggest a potential benefit of metformin in enhancing TNT response in diabetic

First efficacy results of capecitabine with anthracycline- and taxane-based adjuvant therapy in high-risk early breast cancer: a meta-analysis.

PLoS ONE, 2012
BackgroundCapecitabine is effective and indicated for the salvage treatment of metastatic breast cancer. Therefore, it is essential to evaluate the efficacy of capecitabine in the adjuvant setting.

Palbociclib in the Treatment of HR+/ HER2‐ Advanced or Metastatic Breast Cancer in Australia: A Real‐World Retrospective Analysis

Asia-Pacific Journal of Clinical Oncology, EarlyView.
This study investigated the real‐world use of CDK4/6 inhibitors in Australian patients with HR+/HER2‐ advanced or metastatic breast cancer, providing data on patient demographics, treatment patterns, and outcomes with palbociclib. ABSTRACT Background There is limited real‐world data on the use of CDK4/6 inhibitors in Australian patients with HR+/HER2 ...

Systemic Therapy Management Strategies for Early‐Stage Breast Cancer in Australia

Asia-Pacific Journal of Clinical Oncology, EarlyView.
Advances in systemic therapy for early‐stage breast cancer in Australia highlight genomic‐guided decisions, subtype‐specific strategies, and emerging targeted and immunotherapies, shaping personalized and de‐escalated treatment approaches. ABSTRACT Breast cancer is the most common cancer among Australian women, with early‐stage disease (Stages I, II ...

Impact of RAS/RAF Mutations on Metastatic Treatment Response Following Total Neoadjuvant Therapy in Patients With Stage IV Rectal Cancer

Asia-Pacific Journal of Clinical Oncology, EarlyView.
There is limited understanding of the impact of underlying RAS/RAF mutational status on total neoadjuvant therapy metastatic tumor response rates in curative Stage IV rectal cancer patients. Complete metastatic tumor response to TNT was demonstrated in half as many mRAS as wtRAS patients and disease progression was higher in patients harboring RAS ...

Targeting hexokinase 2 to induce breast cancer cell senescence

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Hexokinase 2 (HK2) is a key enzyme linked to high tumour cell proliferation. Its inhibitors such as 3‐bromopyruvic acid (3‐BP) induce cancer cell death, highlighting HK2 modulation as potential anti‐cancer treatment. However, standard chemotherapies often cause the emergence of senescent cancer cells, which goes along with cell ...

Ischaemic stroke and 5‐fluorouracil or capecitabine: A systematic review and meta‐analysis of harms and a retrospective study of the WHO pharmacovigilance database

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Fluoropyrimidines, including 5‐fluorouracil (5‐FU) and capecitabine, are cornerstone antineoplastic agents for cancer. Case reports suggest that these drugs may be associated with an under‐recognised risk of ischaemic stroke or transient ischaemic attack (TIA).
