Increased Risk for Liver Disease in Patients With Chronic Hepatitis B Virus Infection and Low‐Level Viraemia

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
We used an administrative claims dataset to evaluate the relationship between hepatitis B virus (HBV) low‐level viraemia and subsequent liver‐related outcomes in patients with chronic HBV. We found that individuals with HBV low‐level viraemia have an increased risk for liver‐related events (i.e., cirrhosis, decompensation, and hepatocellular carcinoma)

Correlation of Bile Acid Dynamics to Bulevirtide Response and Disease Severity in Patients With Hepatitis D

Alimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Bulevirtide increases bile acid levels in most patients; however, changes in bile acids do not predict virological response or adverse events, nor do they reflect treatment adherence. After discontinuation of bulevirtide, bile acid levels rapidly decline.

A Multivalent mRNA Therapeutic Vaccine Exhibits Breakthroughs in Immune Tolerance and Virological Suppression of HBV by Stably Presenting the Pre-S Antigen on the Cell Membrane

Pharmaceutics
Background/Objectives: In chronic hepatitis B infection (CHB), the hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) continuously exhausts the hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb), which leads to the formation of immune tolerance.

Sulfated lactosyl archaeol (SLA) archaeosomes as a vaccine adjuvant

Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics
Archaeosomes are liposomes traditionally comprised of total polar lipids or semi-synthetic glycerolipids of ether-linked isoprenoid phytanyl cores with varied glycol- and amino-head groups. We have developed a semi-synthetic archaeosome formulation based

Treosulfan–fludarabine conditioning in infants with severe combined immunodeficiencies: Extended study of the UK paediatric treosulfan study

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a curative therapy for severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID). Conditioning improves donor engraftment and freedom from immunoglobulin replacement (IgR) but increases the risks of acute and late toxicity. Treosulfan, a reduced toxicity alkylating agent, has emerged as an alternative

Immunological features of acquired pure red cell aplasia: Specific human leucocyte antigen alleles, signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 mutations and a unique T‐cell receptor beta motif

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary T‐cell abnormalities have been implicated in the pathogenesis of acquired pure red cell aplasia (PRCA), particularly in its major subtypes such as idiopathic PRCA, thymoma‐associated PRCA and large granular lymphocytic leukaemia (LGLL)–associated PRCA, and the precise details remain unclear.

Covalent drug discovery: Progress against key targets, emerging strategies and lessons learnt

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Covalent drug discovery is currently experiencing a boom in industrial and academic interest. To date, at least 75 covalent drugs have received regulatory approval, targeting both traditional target classes and more challenging proteins for which other approaches failed. In many cases, unique aspects of covalent targeting are essential for the

Therapeutic potential of natural products in cancer immunotherapy: Advances and challenges

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
This review systematically outlines the mechanisms underlying tumour immunotherapy resistance and elucidates the role of natural products in enhancing therapeutic efficacy as immunomodulatory adjuvants. Abstract Immunotherapy has emerged as a clinically pivotal approach in cancer treatment, but its application remains limited to a small subset of ...
