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

Antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) combine the specificity of an antibody with the potency of a cytotoxic drug. Thirteen ADCs, utilizing seven unique cytotoxic payloads and targeting 11 distinct antigens, are currently approved by the US Food and Drug Administration as of June 2025, representing a rapidly growing and highly promising class of anticancer ...

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).

Antiangiogenic treatment with ramucirumab is a standard second‐line option in advanced gastric and gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma. However, reliable biomarkers are currently lacking. This exploratory biomarker analysis of the RAMIRIS trial suggests that elevated baseline and early on‐treatment levels of the pro‐angiogenic placental growth ...

Pre‐treatment DPYD and UGT1A1 genotyping is increasingly used to prevent fluoropyrimidine‐ and irinotecan‐related toxicity, but variant‐specific real‐world effects remain unclear. In an unselected cohort of cancer patients with actionable genotypes, genotype‐driven dosing improved safety while preserving treatment exposure in high‐risk DPYD c.1905+1G>A

Bevacizumab added to systemic chemotherapy remains a cornerstone of metastatic colorectal cancer treatment, but its effectiveness is variable. Tumors can bypass the VEGF blockade by activating other pro‐angiogenic pathways, hampering the identification of predictive biomarkers.
