Oral Delivery of Bioencapsulated CTB‐Pro‐IGF‐1 Enhances Bone Regeneration in a Pre‐Clinical Rat Model of Jaw Osteoradionecrosis

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Head and neck cancer radiotherapy can lead to jaw osteoradionecrosis (ORN). There is currently no definitive treatment for ORN. The efficacy of a novel orally delivered aglycosylated IGF‐1 with an E‐peptide (CTB‐Pro‐IGF‐1), bioencapsulated in plant cells, was evaluated as therapy for jaw ORN in rats. Materials and Methods Rat jaw ORN

Combination of Hypofractionated Radiation Therapy and Gilvetmab for the Treatment of Cutaneous or Subcutaneous Mast Cell Tumours in Dogs

Veterinary and Comparative Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gilvetmab is a caninised monoclonal antibody against canine PD‐1. Concurrent or sequential administration of anti‐PD‐1 antibodies and radiation therapy (RT) improves survival time in various species. Eighteen dogs with mast cell tumours (MCTs) were prospectively treated with 24 Gy of RT over Days 0, 7 and 21 and gilvetmab every 2 weeks ...
