Background and Aim Programmed death 1 (PD‐1) and programmed death ligand 1 (PD‐L1) inhibitors have transformed the treatment landscape of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but consistent responses are not observed in all patients, and prognostic ...

High-Titer Hepatitis C Virus Production in a Scalable Single-Use High Cell Density Bioreactor
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections pose a major public health burden due to high chronicity rates and associated morbidity and mortality. A vaccine protecting against chronic infection is not available but would be important for global control of HCV ...

A Discrete Simulation Optimization Approach Towards Calibration of an Agent-based Simulation Model of Hepatitis C Virus Transmission [PDF]
This study demonstrates the implementation of the stochastic ruler discrete simulation optimization method for calibrating an agent-based model (ABM) developed to simulate hepatitis C virus (HCV) transmission. The ABM simulates HCV transmission between agents interacting in multiple environments relevant for HCV transmission in the Indian context.

XELOXIRI neoadjuvant chemotherapy appears to be feasible and efficacious for patients with LARC. Although neoadjuvant XELOXIRI alone did not yield our expected pCR rate, the local recurrence rate, 3‐year DFS and measures of safety met current standards.

MYL6B, a myosin light chain, promotes MDM2-mediated p53 degradation and drives HCC development
Background Identification of novel MDM2 or p53 binding proteins may reveal undefined oncogenes, tumor suppressors, signaling pathways and possible treatment targets.

High tumor budding is a new candidate for an additional determinant of the T category in staging ICC. An LCSGJ staging system containing an additional evaluation of tumor budding may lead to improved staging accuracy. Abstract Purpose This retrospective study evaluated our hypothesis that high tumor budding (≥10 buds) may help determine the appropriate

Current status of liver transplantation for non‐B non‐C liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma
Recently, the cases of LT for non‐B non‐C cirrhosis and HCC have been increasing in Japan as well as worldwide. Perioperative management of non‐B non‐C liver disease is problematic due to various risk factors, including alcohol consumption and metabolic syndrome‐related risks, such as obesity and diabetes mellitus.

Dynamic modelling of hepatitis C virus transmission among people who inject drugs: a methodological review [PDF]
Equipment sharing among people who inject drugs (PWID) is a key risk factor in infection by hepatitis C virus (HCV). Both the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of interventions aimed at reducing HCV transmission in this population (such as opioid substitution therapy, needle exchange programs or improved treatment) are difficult to evaluate using ...
