DNA-Repair Defects and Olaparib in Metastatic Prostate Cancer

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2015
BACKGROUND Prostate cancer is a heterogeneous disease, but current treatments are not based on molecular stratification. We hypothesized that metastatic, castration-resistant prostate cancers with DNA-repair defects would respond to poly(adenosine ...

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 ...

Is a Clinical Trial With a Non‐Bioequivalent Batch Necessary? The Critical Role of Intrasubject Variability in Olaparib Formulation Bridging by PBPK

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Although physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling is increasingly being used to support oral drug formulation bridging, the acceptance by regulatory agencies is low. One of the primary concerns is the absence of clinical pharmacokinetic (PK) data from a non‐bioequivalent (non‐BE) batch during model validation.

Next-generation sequencing of prostate cancer: genomic and pathway alterations, potential actionability patterns, and relative rate of use of clinical-grade testing. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Despite being one of the most common cancers, treatment options for prostate cancer are limited. Novel approaches for advanced disease are needed. We evaluated the relative rate of use of clinical-grade next generation sequencing (NGS) in prostate cancer,

Senolytic drugs dasatinib and quercetin combined with Carboplatin or Olaparib reduced the peritoneal and adipose tissue metastasis of ovarian cancer.

open access: yesBiomedicine & pharmacotherapy = Biomedecine & pharmacotherapie
Chemotherapy and targeted drugs-induced senescent ovarian cancer cells that accumulate in peritoneal adipose tissue contribute significantly to chronic inflammation, disrupt homeostasis, and may fuel various aspects of cancer progression.

Systemic anti‐cancer therapy associated with the occurrence of peripheral neurotoxicity and, specifically, peripheral neuropathy

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? While the effectiveness of systemic anticancer therapy is well documented, it commonly causes severe toxicity. This study of the 467 systemic anticancer therapy agents currently approved globally for clinical and/or research purposes found that peripheral neurotoxicity is associated with 45% of classical chemotherapies, 21% of targeted ...
