Effectiveness of dolutegravir-based regimens as either first-line or switch antiretroviral therapy: data from the Icona cohort [PDF]
Introduction: Concerns about dolutegravir (DTG) tolerability in the real-life setting have recently arisen. We aimed to estimate the risk of treatment discontinuation and virological failure of DTG-based regimens from a large cohort of HIV-infected ...

A simple model to solve a complex drug toxicity problem.
Linear drug toxicity models like therapeutic index (TI), physicochemical rules (rule of five, 3/75), ligand efficiency indices (LEI), ideal pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) profiles are widely used in drug discovery and development. In spite

Introduction: Physiological pH and chemical pKa are two sides of the same coin in defining the ionization of a drug in the human body. The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation and pH-partition hypothesis form the theoretical base to define the impact of pH-pKa

Amiodarone-related Pneumonitis
Amiodarone-related pneumonitis is a potentially limiting factor for amiodarone usage. However, it is believed that amiodarone-related pneumonitis is unlikely to occur during low-dose and short courses of therapy. We report three patients who received low-

Enhanced cancer therapy with cold-controlled drug release and photothermal warming enabled by one nanoplatform [PDF]
Stimuli-responsive nanoparticles hold great promise for drug delivery to improve the safety and efficacy of cancer therapy. One of the most investigated stimuli-responsive strategies is to induce drug release by heating with laser, ultrasound, or ...

Synthesis and Antileishmanial Activity of 1,2,4,5-Tetraoxanes against Leishmania donovani [PDF]
A chemically diverse range of novel tetraoxanes was synthesized and evaluated in vitro against intramacrophage amastigote forms of Leishmania donovani. All 15 tested tetraoxanes displayed activity, with IC50 values ranging from 2 to 45 µm.

Genomics and Drug Toxicity [PDF]
A s genomics has revolutionized the study of biology, so has it affected how drugs are discovered. Pharmaceutical companies have also realized another major application: how drugs are assessed for safety. The analysis of gene expression profiles is now actively used alongside conventional toxicological assays to assess drug safety.

Biologic Stress, Oxidative Stress, and Resistance to Drugs: What Is Hidden Behind
Stress can be defined as the homeostatic, nonspecific defensive response of the organism to challenges. It is expressed by morphological, biochemical, and functional changes.

The effects of time valuation in cancer optimal therapies: a study of chronic myeloid leukemia [PDF]
Background The mathematical design of optimal therapies to fight cancer is an important research field in today’s Biomathematics and Biomedicine given its relevance to formulate patient-specific treatments. Until now, however, cancer optimal therapies
