Reducing severe breathlessness with dronabinol in the group of patients with severe and very severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (BONG): a randomised, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, crossover study in an outpatient clinic in Denmark – a study protocol

open access: yesBMJ Open
Introduction Cannabis-based medicine may alleviate breathlessness. This study will investigate whether dronabinol, a synthetic form of Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC), reduces breathlessness in patients with severe and very severe chronic obstructive ...

p190A/ARHGAP35 and p190B/ARHGAP5 proteins in endometrial cancer: a novel cancer‐relevant paralog interplay

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study identifies ARHGAP5, in addition to the frequently mutated ARHGAP35, as significantly mutated in endometrial cancer. Mutations in both genes co‐occur and are associated with their correlated downregulation. Functional CRISPR studies show that both paralogs regulate similar pathways, including actin cytoskeleton organization.

Targeting the EpCAM‐AXL axis to overcome drug resistance in lung cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Lung cancer cells often evade therapy by hijacking signaling pathways. We reveal that cleaved EpCAM (sEpCAM) stabilizes the oncogenic protein AXL, driving NF‐κB and STAT3‐mediated chemoresistance. This EpCAM‐AXL axis identifies a high‐risk patient subset with poor prognosis.

Data sharing among data monitoring committees and responsibilities to patients and science. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Over the past three decades it has become increasingly recognized that systematic assessment of as high a proportion as possible of relevant research evidence is needed to protect the best interests of patients and the public. For example, this principle

Phase 2 study design and analysis approach for BBT-877: an autotaxin inhibitor targeting idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

open access: yesBMJ Open Respiratory Research
Introduction Proof-of-concept (POC) studies are vital in determining the feasibility of further drug development, primarily by assessing preliminary efficacy signals with credible endpoints.

Reprogramming tumor cells with LCOR mRNA nanotherapy to enhance immunotherapy

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
LCOR (Ligand‐dependent corepressor) mRNA encapsulated in polymeric nanoparticles restores LCOR activity in tumor cells, constraining aggressive tumor cell states and increasing tumor immunogenicity. This reprogramming makes tumor cells more vulnerable to T‐cell attack and enhances their response to immune‐checkpoint immunotherapy.

Attitudes of cancer patients toward ctDNA‐based liquid biopsy for follow‐up

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This mixed‐methods study explored cancer patients' experiences, knowledge, and preferences regarding ctDNA‐based liquid biopsy for follow‐up. Awareness of ctDNA was low and recall of previous liquid biopsy was imperfect, yet acceptance was high.

Experience collecting interim data on mortality: an example from the RALES study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
INTRODUCTION: The Randomized Aldactone Evaluation Study (RALES) randomized 822 patients to receive 25 mg spironolactone daily and 841 to receive placebo. The primary endpoint was death from all causes.

Regulation for the Translation of Gene and Cell Therapy into Medical Practice in East Asian Countries

open access: yesРегуляторные исследования и экспертиза лекарственных средств
SCIENTIFIC RELEVANCE. Currently, the Russian Federation lacks a comprehensive regulatory framework for the use of gene and cell therapy (GCT) products. There is no standard for conducting clinical trials for purposes other than marketing authorisation in

The impact of leukocyte‐associated RNA retention on platelet RNA‐based cancer detection

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Platelets carry RNA signals that may help detect cancer, but platelet samples can also retain RNA from white blood cells. We found that this retained white blood cell signal did not significantly affect machine learning cancer classification, suggesting that the cancer‐related RNA signal in platelets is largely independent of leukocyte‐associated RNA ...
