- 临床试验 临床试验
背景情况:
- 晚期胃和食管胃结癌 (AGOC) 对耐火病例的治疗选择有限.
- 作为口服的多酶抑制剂,Regorafenib在INTEGRATE I试验中先前已经证明了无进展生存率 (PFS) 的改善.
研究的目的:
- 评估regorafenib在改善耐药性晚期胃和食道结癌 (AGOC) 患者的整体生存期 (OS) 的疗效.
主要方法:
- 一项双盲,安慰剂对照,随机的III期试验 (INTEGRATE IIa) 比较了regorafenib加最佳支持性护理 (BSC) 与安慰剂加BSC.
- 参与者在至少两次先前治疗后确认了转移/晚期AGOC.
- 主要终点是整体生存 (OS),次要终点包括PFS,客观反应率,安全和生活质量 (QoL).
主要成果:
- 雷戈拉费尼布在综合总生存 (OS) 中显著改善 (HR 0.70; P = .001) 和单独在INTEGRATE IIa队列中 (HR 0.68; P = .006).

Treatment Resistant Cancers
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States. A cancer cell is genetically unstable and hence can mutate faster. They can also modify their microenvironment and escape immune surveillance. The difficulties in treating cancer are further compounded by the emergence of rapid resistance to anticancer drugs. The most common ways to attain resistance in cancer cells include alteration in drug transport and metabolism, modification of drug target, elevated DNA damage response, or...
Drugs for Treatment of Ulcerative Colitis in IBD
Ulcerative colitis is a chronic inflammatory condition primarily affecting the colon and rectum. The primary drugs used in the treatment of ulcerative colitis are aminosalicylates. They exhibit anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive properties. They modulate inflammatory mediators and inhibit the activity of nuclear factor κB (NF-κB). Aminosalicylates also reduce inflammation by inhibiting prostaglandin and leukotriene production and decreasing neutrophil chemotaxis and superoxide generation.
Drugs for Treatment of Crohn's Disease in IBD Using Immunomodulatory Agents
Crohn's disease is an inflammatory bowel disorder marked by chronic inflammation of the GI tract. Various treatment strategies for Crohn's disease are employed, such as immunomodulatory agents, glucocorticoids, and biologics or anti-TNF therapy. Azathioprine (Imuran), a commonly used immunomodulatory drug for Crohn's disease, is converted in the body to mercaptopurine, which inhibits purine biosynthesis and cell proliferation. Both are utilized in severe cases of Inflammatory Bowel Disease...
Gastritis III: Clinical Manifestations and Management
The clinical manifestations of gastritis can vary depending on the cause and type of gastritis, but some common symptoms may include the following.
Clinical manifestations of acute gastritis
The patient with acute gastritis may have a rapid onset of symptoms, such as epigastric pain or discomfort, dyspepsia, anorexia, hiccups, or nausea and vomiting, which can last from a few hours to a few days. Erosive or hemorrhagic gastritis may cause bleeding, which may manifest as blood in vomit or as...
