Impact of extended insurance coverage on survival outcomes among patients with metastatic colorectal cancer in Taiwan

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Predetermined treatment duration limits (PTDLs) are often used by Taiwan's National Health Insurance Administration to contain healthcare costs, but they may compromise patient outcomes. Therefore, we studied Taiwan's 2017 extension of the bevacizumab PTDL from 24 to 36 weeks in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) to evaluate whether prolonged ...

ABCB1 Genetic Variants as Predictors of Irinotecan-Induced Severe Gastrointestinal Toxicity in Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Patients

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Irinotecan is widely used in the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) despite its severe toxicities. Toxicity is often associated with the UGT1A1*28/*28 genotype.

The Adaptor Protein Myd88 Is a Key Signaling Molecule in the Pathogenesis of Irinotecan-Induced Intestinal Mucositis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Intestinal mucositis is a common side effect of irinotecan-based anticancer regimens. Mucositis causes cell damage, bacterial/endotoxin translocation and production of cytokines including IL-1 and IL-18.

From anthelmintic to neuro‐oncology: A systematic review of mebendazole repurposing for brain tumour therapy

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Mebendazole (MBZ), a benzimidazole anthelmintic with established clinical use, has emerged as a repurposing candidate for primary brain tumours due to its multimodal anticancer actions and central nervous system penetrance. This systematic review synthesizes preclinical and clinical evidence evaluating MBZ's efficacy, mechanisms of action ...

Real-world outcomes of third-line immune checkpoint inhibitors versus irinotecan-based chemotherapy in patients with advanced gastric cancer: a Korean, multicenter study (KCSG ST22-06)

open access: yesBMC Cancer
Background Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) or irinotecan-based chemotherapy is frequently used after failure of second-line paclitaxel plus ramucirumab treatment for patients with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic advanced gastric cancer (AGC)

P-glycoprotein-dependent pharmacokinetics of irinotecan and its active metabolite, SN-38 in rats: Effect of verapamil

open access: yesADMET and DMPK, 2015
We have recently demonstrated that the oral bioavailability of irinotecan (80 mg/kg) can be increased at least 7-fold by co-administration of the P-gp blocker verapamil (25 mg/kg, Oral).

Long‐Term Prognosis, Residual Recurrence Risk, and Postoperative Management After Pathological Complete Response in Rectal Cancer

open access: yesCancer Nexus, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract summarizes the post‐pCR clinical pathway in locally advanced rectal cancer. After neoadjuvant radiotherapy and systemic therapy followed by surgery, patients achieving pCR (ypT0N0) generally have durable disease control, although residual risks of local and distant recurrence remain. Risk assessment, guideline‐based surveillance,

Perioperative Rehabilitation and Initiation of Adjuvant Chemotherapy in Resected Non‐Small Cell Lung Cancer

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Adjuvant chemotherapy can improve outcomes for patients who have undergone lung cancer resection, and perioperative rehabilitation may help maintain the physical condition necessary to receive adjuvant chemotherapy. This observational cohort study investigated the impact of perioperative rehabilitation on the administration of postoperative ...

Clinical Translation of Patient‐Derived Organoids: Perspectives for Personalized Therapy in Cancer

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Patient‐derived organoids (PDO) are accelerating precision medicine. These biological platforms allow for the autologous in vitro expansion of material from cancer patients in a considerably short period of time. These three‐dimensional models can faithfully recapitulate aspects of tissue heterogeneity, architecture, and relevant cellular ...
