Emerging Advances in Nanomedicine for Targeted Cancer Photoimmunotherapy and Photo-Immunometabolic Therapy. [PDF]
Schematic representation of nanoparticle‐mediated photothermal therapy (PTT) inducing anti‐tumor immune responses. Nanoparticles are administered to a tumor‐bearing mouse and accumulate at the tumor site. Upon laser irradiation, the nanoparticles generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) within cancer cells, leading to cellular apoptosis.

Development of radiopharmaceuticals for targeted alpha therapy: Where do we stand?
Targeted alpha therapy is an oncological treatment, where cytotoxic doses of alpha radiation are locally delivered to tumor cells, while the surrounding healthy tissue is minimally affected.

Targeted Therapy With Immunoconjugates for Multiple Myeloma
The introduction of proteasome inhibitors (PI) and immunomodulatory drugs (IMiD) has markedly increased the survival of multiple myeloma (MM) patients. Also, the unconjugated monoclonal antibodies (mAb) daratumumab (anti-CD38) and elotuzumab (anti-SLAMF7)

The Therapeutic Potential of Photoimmunotherapy as a Safe, Effective and Non-Toxic Treatment Option for Superficial Triple Negative Breast Cancer. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive breast cancer subtype, lacking estrogen (ER), progesterone (PR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER‐2) expression. It disproportionately affects women of African descent and has a poor clinical prognosis attributed to its acute heterogeneity, thereby causing elevated ...

Porcine sialoadhesin (CD169/Siglec-1) is an endocytic receptor that allows targeted delivery of toxins and antigens to macrophages. [PDF]
Sialoadhesin is exclusively expressed on specific subpopulations of macrophages. Since sialoadhesin-positive macrophages are involved in inflammatory autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, and potentially in the generation of immune responses ...

Management of HER2-Low Metastatic Breast Cancer: A Comprehensive Statement by an Expert Group from the Middle East and Africa Region [PDF]
Approximately 50 to 67% of breast cancers (BCs), traditionally categorized as human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative, but demonstrating low HER2 expression, are now being defined as a new HER2-low subset or HER2-low category of BC.
