Mashup Score: 0Penpulimab and anlotinib in an elderly patient with recurrent cervical cancer: a case report and literature review | Immunotherapy - 10 month(s) ago
We present a case of a 76-year-old patient with recurrent cervical cancer who underwent first-line treatment with penpulimab combined with anlotinib. The patient was diagnosed with poorly differentiated stage III C1r cervical squamous cell carcinoma and received standard cisplatin-sensitized chemoradiotherapy, subsequently achieving a good treatment effect of complete response. Recurrence…

Mashup Score: 0Cancer immunotherapy via stem cell-derived NK cells | Immunotherapy - 10 month(s) ago
NK cells are the first sentinels of the immune system that can recognize and eradicate transformed cells. Their activation without a need for additional signaling have attracted great attention on the use of NK cells as a promising option in cancer immunotherapy. However, the large-scale production of NK cells for successful NK cells therapy is a challenge that needs to be tackled. Engineering NK…

Mashup Score: 0Enhanced binding at fever temperatures of HER2 in complex with trastuzumab and pertuzumab | Immunotherapy - 10 month(s) ago
Aim: Fever follows the administration of trastuzumab and pertuzumab used in HER2-relevant immunotherapy, but is often eliminated in clinical practice. This work explores the role of temperature (37–39°C) in the formation of immune complexes between HER2 with either trastuzumab or pertuzumab or with both antibodies. Materials & methods: Using molecular dynamics simulations and free energy…

Mashup Score: 0Evaluation of appendectomy as a potential risk factor for immune checkpoint inhibitor-associated enterocolitis | Immunotherapy - 10 month(s) ago
Aims: The relationship between appendectomy and immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) enterocolitis was explored. Methods: Patients who began ICIs between July 2010 and September 2020 (n = 10,907) were included. The exposure group included patients with evidence of appendectomy prior to ICIs in operative notes (n = 380). The control group included patients with evidence of normal appendix in…
