Abstract: (1) Background: Numerous variables could influence the risk of rectal cancer recurrence or metastasis, and machine learning (ML)-based algorithms can help us refine the risk stratification process of these patients and choose the best therapeutic approach. The aim of this study was to assess the predictive performance of 4 ML-based models for the prediction of local recurrence or distant metastasis in patients with locally advanced low rectal adenocarcinomas who underwent neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy and surgical treatment; (2) Methods: Patients who were admitted at the first Oncologic Surgical Clinic from the Regional Institute of Oncology, Iasi, Romania were retrospectively included in this study between November 2019 and July 2023. Decision tree (DT), naïve Bayes (NB), support vector machine (SVM), and random forest (RF) were used to analyze imagistic, surgical, and pathological data retrieved from the medical files, and their predictive performance was assessed; (3) Results: The best predictive performance was achieved by RF when used to predict disease recurrence (accuracy: 90.85%) or distant metastasis (accuracy: 89.63%). RF was closely followed by SVM (accuracy for recurrence 87.8%; accuracy for metastasis: 87.2%) in terms of predictive performance. NB and DT achieved moderate predictive power for the evaluated outcomes; (4) Conclusions: Complex algorithms such as RF and SVM could be useful for improving the prediction of adverse oncological outcomes in patients with low rectal adenocarcinoma.

2. Predicting the Feasibility of Curative Resection in Low Rectal Cancer: Insights from a Prospective Observational Study on Preoperative Magnetic Resonance Imaging Accuracy

Subjects: rectal adenocarcinoma, magnetic resonance imaging, predictive performance, combined models, Medicine (General), R5-920
Abstract: Background and Objectives: A positive pathological circumferential resection margin is a key prognostic factor in rectal cancer surgery. The point of this prospective study was to see how well different MRI parameters could predict a positive pathological circumferential resection margin (pCRM) in people who had been diagnosed with rectal adenocarcinoma, either on their own or when used together. Materials and Methods: Between November 2019 and February 2023, a total of 112 patients were enrolled in this prospective study and followed up for a 36-month period. MRI predictors such as circumferential resection margin (mCRM), presence of extramural venous invasion (mrEMVI), tumor location, and the distance between the tumor and anal verge, taken individually or combined, were evaluated with univariate and sensitivity analyses. Survival estimates in relation to a pCRM status were also determined using Kaplan–Meier analysis. Results: When individually evaluated, the best MRI predictor for the detection of a pCRM in the postsurgical histopathological examination is mrEMVI, which achieved a sensitivity (Se) of 77.78%, a specificity (Sp) of 87.38%, a negative predictive value (NPV) of 97.83%, and an accuracy of 86.61%. Also, the best predictive performance was achieved by a model that comprised all MRI predictors (mCRM+ mrEMVI+ anterior location+ < 4 cm from the anal verge), with an Se of 66.67%, an Sp of 88.46%, an NPV of 96.84%, and an accuracy of 86.73%. The survival rates were significantly higher in the pCRM-negative group (p < 0.001). Conclusions: The use of selective individual imaging predictors or combined models could be useful for the prediction of positive pCRM and risk stratification for local recurrence or distant metastasis.

Abstract: Immunotherapy represents a promising strategy for the treatment of cancer, which functions via the reprogramming and activation of antitumor immunity. However, adverse events resulting from immunotherapy that are related to the low specificity of tumor cell-targeting represent a limitation of immunotherapy’s efficacy. The potential of nanotechnologies is represented by the possibilities of immunotherapeutical agents being carried by nanoparticles with various material types, shapes, sizes, coated ligands, associated loading methods, hydrophilicities, elasticities, and biocompatibilities. In this review, the principal types of nanovectors (nanopharmaceutics and bioinspired nanoparticles) are summarized along with the shortcomings in nanoparticle delivery and the main factors that modulate efficacy (the EPR effect, protein coronas, and microbiota). The mechanisms by which nanovectors can target cancer cells, the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME), and the peripheral immune system are also presented. A possible mathematical model for the cellular communication mechanisms related to exosomes as nanocarriers is proposed.

4. The role of IgE specific for galactose-α-1,3-galactose in predicting cetuximab induced hypersensitivity reaction: a systematic review and a diagnostic meta-analysis

Abstract: Abstract Recombinant monoclonal antibodies are used for treating various diseases, from asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, and inflammatory bowel disease to cancer. Although monoclonal antibodies are known to have fewer toxic reactions compared with the conventional cytotoxic antineoplastic drugs, the cases of severe systemic hypersensitivity reaction (HSR) should be acknowledged. Our aim was to assess the diagnostic accuracy of the anti-IgE for galactose-α-1,3-galactose in patients with HSRs to cetuximab. We searched in PubMed, Cochrane Library, Scopus, and World of Science databases to July 1st, 2020. We included a total of 6 studies, with 1074 patients. Meta-analysis was performed using bivariate analysis and the random-effect model. The pooled sensitivity was 73% (95% CI 62–81%) and the pooled specificity was 88% (95% CI 79–94%). We had not found significant heterogeneity and, despite some discrepancies in the nature of data available in the analysed studies, we draw the conclusion that the presence of cetuximab specific IgE (anti cetuximab antibody) and/or galactose-α-1,3-galactose shows moderate to high sensitivity and specificity of developing an HSR. More studies are needed to establish a protocol necessary for the proper prediction and avoidance of HSR related to cetuximab.

Abstract: Background: Accurate assessments of current and future fertility-including overall trends and changing population age structures across countries and regions-are essential to help plan for the profound social, economic, environmental, and geopolitical challenges that these changes will bring. Estimates and projections of fertility are necessary to inform policies involving resource and health-care needs, labour supply, education, gender equality, and family planning and support. The Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2021 produced up-to-date and comprehensive demographic assessments of key fertility indicators at global, regional, and national levels from 1950 to 2021 and forecast fertility metrics to 2100 based on a reference scenario and key policy-dependent alternative scenarios. Methods: To estimate fertility indicators from 1950 to 2021, mixed-effects regression models and spatiotemporal Gaussian process regression were used to synthesise data from 8709 country-years of vital and sample registrations, 1455 surveys and censuses, and 150 other sources, and to generate age-specific fertility rates (ASFRs) for 5-year age groups from age 10 years to 54 years. ASFRs were summed across age groups to produce estimates of total fertility rate (TFR). Livebirths were calculated by multiplying ASFR and age-specific female population, then summing across ages 10-54 years. To forecast future fertility up to 2100, our Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) forecasting model was based on projections of completed cohort fertility at age 50 years (CCF50; the average number of children born over time to females from a specified birth cohort), which yields more stable and accurate measures of fertility than directly modelling TFR. CCF50 was modelled using an ensemble approach in which three sub-models (with two, three, and four covariates variously consisting of female educational attainment, contraceptive met need, population density in

6. MiRNA and LncRNA as Potential Biomarkers in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer: A Review

Abstract: Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) include a diverse range of RNA species, including microRNAs (miRNAs) and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs). MiRNAs, ncRNAs of approximately 19–25 nucleotides in length, are involved in gene expression regulation either via degradation or silencing of the messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and have roles in multiple biological processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation, migration, angiogenesis, and apoptosis. LncRNAs, which are longer than 200 nucleotides, comprise one of the largest and most heterogeneous RNA families. LncRNAs can activate or repress gene expression through various mechanisms, acting alone or in combination with miRNAs and other molecules as part of various pathways. Until recently, most research has focused on individual lncRNA and miRNA functions as regulators, and there is limited available data on ncRNA interactions relating to the tumor growth, metastasis, and therapy of cancer, acting either on mRNA alone or as competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) networks. Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) represents approximately 10%–20% of all breast cancers (BCs) and is highly heterogenous and more aggressive than other types of BC, for which current targeted treatment options include hormonotherapy, PARP inhibitors, and immunotherapy; however, no targeted therapies for TNBC are available, partly because of a lack of predictive biomarkers. With advances in proteomics, new evidence has emerged demonstrating the implications of dysregulation of ncRNAs in TNBC etiology. Here, we review the roles of lncRNAs and miRNAs implicated in TNBC, including their interactions and regulatory networks. Our synthesis provides insight into the mechanisms involved in TNBC progression and has potential to aid the discovery of new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.

7. HER2 Positive Breast Cancer Therapy - A Challenging and Continuously Moving Pathway – A Narrative Literature Review

Abstract: Background: Alteration of the expression of human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 gene as an oncogenic pathway in breast cancer was first explored in the 1980'. Since then, tremendous progress has been made in treating HER2-positive breast cancer. Methods: We performed a narrative type review of the existing literature using as a starting point the PubMed database, investigated by keywords, later the search being refined and the articles that we considered relevant were selected. The approach to the topic under discussion being variable in the various studies identified convinced us of the inappropriateness of a meta-analysis. As a secondary method of analysis, we evaluated the bibliography of each of the selected studies and from this we identified other publications of interest. Results: At present, there are three major classes of FDA-approved anti-HER2 agents: monoclonal antibodies (Trastuzumab, Pertuzumab and Margetuximab), TKIs (Lapatinib, Neratinib and Tucatinib) and antibody-drug conjugates (T-DM1 and T-DXd). The treatment of HER2+ breast cancer suffered some changes in the last few years. If in 2018, after progression under first-line treatment with taxane-trastuzumab/pertuzumab and second line with T-DM1 was a big challenge, being up to the oncologist to choose from lapatinib-capecitabine, trastuzumab-lapatinib or different chemotherapeutic agents, depending on toxicities and therapies available in the country, nowadays we have a new third- and fourth-line FDA approved standard, which consists of tucatinib-trastuzumab-capecitabine and trastuzumab-deruxtecan. Conclusion: Times are very exciting for HER2-positive disease. What differentiates novel therapies and if we do it better is both the question that we tried to give an answer to in this review of literature, but it remains at the same time a topic of discussion and a directive for analysis in the future, because we are only getting closer to an optimal version of treatment for HER2+ breast cancer, hoping that the introduction of new drugs and the establishment of new indications for old drugs will allow us to standardize the treatment of these patients.

Abstract: Two formulations based on diclofenac sodium salt encapsulated into a chitosan hydrogel were designed and prepared, and their drug release was investigated by combining in vitro results with mathematical modeling. To understand how the pattern of drug encapsulation impacted its release, the formulations were supramolecularly and morphologically characterized by scanning electron microscopy and polarized light microscopy, respectively. The mechanism of diclofenac release was assessed by using a mathematical model based on the multifractal theory of motion. Various drug-delivery mechanisms, such as Fickian- and non-Fickian-type diffusion, were shown to be fundamental mechanisms. More precisely, in a case of multifractal one-dimensional drug diffusion in a controlled-release polymer–drug system (i.e., in the form of a plane with a certain thickness), a solution that allowed the model’s validation through the obtained experimental data was established. The present research reveals possible new perspectives, for example in the prevention of intrauterine adhesions occurring through endometrial inflammation and other pathologies with an inflammatory mechanism background, such as periodontal diseases, and also therapeutic potential beyond the anti-inflammatory action of diclofenac as an anticancer agent, with a role in cell cycle regulation and apoptosis, using this type of drug-delivery system.

Abstract: Patients with microsatellite-instability-high (MSI-H) or mismatched repair-deficient colorectal cancer (CRC) appear to be responsive to checkpoint inhibitors. This study aimed to assess research trends in CRC immunotherapy. Publication patterns of articles covering immunotherapies in CRC in the Web of Science Core Collection database were retrospectively examined using VOS viewer software (version 1.6.16) prior to 25 May 2021. Ultimately, 3977 records were identified that were published between 1975 and 2021, which received a total of 128,681 citations (an average of 32.36 citations per item), with a noticeable rise in 2014. The majority of articles were published in the US (35.8%), China (17.7%), and Germany (9.4%). Publications mainly originated from the Institut National de la Santé Et De La Recherche Medicale Inserm, followed by the University of Texas System and Harvard University; however, Johns Hopkins University received the most citations (18,666 for 69 publications). The Journal of Clinical Oncology issued the most publications (n = 146), while the most referenced item (7724 citations) was published in the New England Journal of Medicine in 2012. The most common keywords were associated with tumors (expression and microsatellite instability) or immune system components (t-cells/dendritic cells). The findings demonstrate the scientific community’s interest in the MSI-H subtype of colorectal tumors and how immunotherapy may be employed more successfully to treat metastatic CRC.

Abstract: NC-6004 is a nanoparticle developed using micellar technology that can improve release of cisplatin, a standard treatment for many cancer types, and achieve selective distribution to tumors. Here, in the Phase II portion of this study, the activity, safety, tolerability, and effects on quality of life of NC-6004 in combination with gemcitabine was examined in 34 squamous non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) patients, 50 biliary tract cancer patients, and 13 bladder cancer patients. All patients received 135 mg/m2 NC-6004 on day one and 1,250 mg/m2 gemcitabine on days one and eight. The median progression-free survival was 3.9 months in NSCLC patients, 4.3 months in biliary tract cancer patients, and 6.8 months in bladder cancer patients fit for cisplatin treatment. The most frequently reported Grade 3 Treatment Emergent Adverse Events across all cohorts were nausea, anemia and neutropenia, and hyponatremia. Quality of life measures for patients who received the combined therapy were generally consistent with expectations for patients undergoing chemotherapy. Overall, combined NC-6004 and gemcitabine treatment resulted in long-lasting antitumor activity and had a favorable safety profile, suggesting that it should be investigated further as a therapy for various types of cancer.

Abstract: Immunotherapy represents a promising strategy for the treatment of cancer, which functions via the reprogramming and activation of antitumor immunity. However, adverse events resulting from immunotherapy that are related to the low specificity of tumor cell-targeting represent a limitation of immunotherapy’s efficacy. The potential of nanotechnologies is represented by the possibilities of immunotherapeutical agents being carried by nanoparticles with various material types, shapes, sizes, coated ligands, associated loading methods, hydrophilicities, elasticities, and biocompatibilities. In this review, the principal types of nanovectors (nanopharmaceutics and bioinspired nanoparticles) are summarized along with the shortcomings in nanoparticle delivery and the main factors that modulate efficacy (the EPR effect, protein coronas, and microbiota). The mechanisms by which nanovectors can target cancer cells, the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME), and the peripheral immune system are also presented. A possible mathematical model for the cellular communication mechanisms related to exosomes as nanocarriers is proposed.

Abstract: Although neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) are intensively studied, their diagnosis and consequently personalised therapy management is still puzzling due to their tumoral heterogeneity. In their theragnosis algorithm, receptor somatostatin scintigraphy takes the central place, the diagnosis receptor somatostatin analogue (RSA) choice depending on laboratory experience and accessibility. However, in all cases, the results depend decisively on correct radiotracer tumoral uptake quantification, where unfortunately there are still unrevealed clues and lack of standardization. We propose an improved method to quantify the biodistribution of gamma-emitting RSA, using tissular corrected uptake indices. We conducted a bi-centric retrospective study on 101 patients with different types of NETs. Three uptake indices obtained after applying new corrections to areas of interest drawn for the tumour and for three reference organs (liver, spleen and lung) were statistically analysed. For the corrected pathological uptake indices, the results showed a significant decrease in the error of estimating the occurrence of errors and an increase in the diagnostic predictive power for NETs, especially in the case of lung-referring corrected index. In conclusion, these results support the importance of corrected uptake indices use in the analysis of 99mTcRSA biodistribution for a better personalised diagnostic accuracy of NETs patients.

Abstract: The practice of oncology continues to be an area of continuous renewal. The volume of knowledge in the field of cancer therapy is increasing rapidly compared to any other medical discipline, constraining the need for permanent information. The first data on malignancies are linked to the 11th century BC. The concerns of physicians were attracted to the cancerous disease, the observations and hypotheses regarding it being mentioned in different writings of the time. The increased frequency of cancer in the oro-maxillofacial region is favored by a number of factors: the great diversity of maxillofacial structures and the very important changes in the phylogenesis and ontogeny of these structures; the embryonic existence of the branchial arches, with the possibility of remaining residues in this stage; function of the intense quality of the face region and the oral region, as the first segment of the matter import apparatus; the multitude of irritant factors, which play an important role in the occurrence of cancer ( temperature, food hardness, dust, chemical noxiousness). The improvement of the methods and techniques of the surgical operations performed on the maxillofacial region had a decisive influence on the treatment of this region. In patients whose pathologic (bleeding diathesis, heart disease, liver disease, diabetes, etc.) can lead to various complications (local and general), interventions of oral and maxillofacial surgerycan perform as a preparation prior appropriate. The study includes a sample of 48 patients with malignant tumors of the salivary glands. The treatment of malignant tumors of the salivary gland have to be as wide early and surgically, with radiotherapy and / or multi-agent chemotherapy. Radiotherapy alone is insufficient, indicated only as palliative treatment.

Abstract: The Primitive Gastric Lymphoma represents the extra-ganglionic non-Hodgkin lymphoma most frequently and comprises a large spectrum, ranging from the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma to aggressive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. The Primitive Gastric Lymphoma is a rare tumor, with an occurrence ranging from 4% to 20% of non-Hodgkin lymphomas and approximatively 5% of primary gastric neoplasms. The chronic gastritis secondary to the infection with Helicobacter pylori was considered a major predisposing factor for MALT lymphoma. The clinical evolution and the prognosis of this disease depend on the subtype and histopathological stage at the moment of the diagnosis. Due to its rarity, many aspects of this neoplasm remain still controversial.

Abstract: Colorectal cancer is a major cause of cancer-related death worldwide and is correlated with genetic and epigenetic alterations in the colonic epithelium. Genetic changes play a major role in the pathophysiology of colorectal cancer through the development of gene mutations, but recent research has shown an important role for epigenetic alterations. In this review, we try to describe the current knowledge about epigenetic alterations, including DNA methylation and histone modifications, as well as the role of non-coding RNAs as epigenetic regulators and the prognostic and predictive biomarkers in metastatic colorectal disease that can allow increases in the effectiveness of treatments. Additionally, the intestinal microbiota’s composition can be an important biomarker for the response to strategies based on the immunotherapy of CRC. The identification of biomarkers in mCRC can be enhanced by developing artificial intelligence programs. We present the actual models that implement AI technology as a bridge connecting ncRNAs with tumors and conducted some experiments to improve the quality of the model used as well as the speed of the model that provides answers to users. In order to carry out this task, we implemented six algorithms: the naive Bayes classifier, the random forest classifier, the decision tree classifier, gradient boosted trees, logistic regression and SVM.

Abstract: Background and Objectives: Colorectal cancer (CRC) can be classified as mismatch-repair-deficient (dMMR) with high levels of microsatellite instability (MSI-H), or mismatch-repair-proficient (pMMR) and microsatellite stable (MSS). Approximately 15% of patients have microsatellite instability (MSI). MSI-H tumors are associated with a high mutation burden. Monoclonal antibodies that block immune checkpoints can induce long-term durable responses in some patients. Pembrolizumab is the first checkpoint inhibitor approved in the EU to treat dMMR–MSI-H metastatic CRC. Materials and Methods: Our study assesses the regional variability of MSI-H colorectal cancer tumors in Romania. Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue blocks containing tumor samples from 90 patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer were collected from two tertiary referral Oncology Centers from Romania. Tissues were examined for the expression loss of MMR proteins (MLH1, PMS2, MSH2, MSH6) using immunohistochemistry or MSI status using polymerase chain reaction (PCR), respectively. Results: MSI-H was detected in 19 (21.1%) patients. MSI-H was located more in ascending colon (36.8% vs. 9.9%, p-value = 0.0039) and less in sigmoid (5.3% vs. 33.8%, p-value = 0.0136) than MSS patients. Most patients were stage II for MSI-H (42.1%) as well as for MSS (56.3%), with significant more G1 (40.9% vs. 15.8%, p-value = 0.0427) for MSS patients. Gender, N stage, and M stage were identified as significant prognostic factors in multivariate analysis. MSI status was not a statistically significant predictor neither in univariate analysis nor multivariate analysis. Conclusion: Considering the efficacy of PD-1 inhibitor in metastatic CRC with MSI-H or dMMR, and its recent approval in EU, it is increasingly important to understand the prevalence across tumor stage, histology, and demographics, since our study displayed higher regional MSI-H prevalence (21%) compared to the literature.

Abstract: Cancer immunotherapy has shifted the paradigm in cancer treatment in recent years. Immune checkpoint blockage (ICB), the active cancer vaccination and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) for T-cell-based adoptive cell transfer represent the main developments, achieving a surprising increased survival in patients included in clinical trials. In spite of these results, the current state-of-the-art immunotherapy has its limitations in efficacy. The existence of an interdisciplinary interface involving current knowledge in biology, immunology, bioengineering and materials science represents important progress in increasing the effectiveness of immunotherapy in cancer. Cutaneous melanoma remains a difficult cancer to treat, in which immunotherapy is a major therapeutic option. In fact, enhancing immunotherapy is possible using sophisticated biomedical nanotechnology platforms of organic or inorganic materials or engineering various immune cells to enhance the immune system. In addition, biological devices have developed, changing the approach to and treatment results in melanoma. In this review, we present different modalities to modulate the immune system, as well as opportunities and challenges in melanoma treatment.

18. Endoglin (CD105) as a putative prognostic biomarker for colorectal cancer: a systematic review

Author: Alexandru Irimie, Claudia Burz, Simona Ruxandra Volovat, Cristian Virgil Lungulescu, Andrei Havasi, and Daniel Sur
Subjects: General Medicine
Abstract: The outcome of colorectal cancer (CRC) can be improved by the identification of prognostic biomarkers. This systematic review of observational cohort and case-control studies was conducted to investigate the role of Endoglin (CD105) in the prognosis of CRC. The databases PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Cochrane CENTRAL were searched to identify the qualified studies using the relevant keywords. After the removal of duplicate articles, the screening was implemented on the titles, abstracts, and potential full-text articles. Afterward, the eligible cohort and case-control studies were identified, and the data were extracted into an Excel datasheet. In total, 11 observational cohort studies and 1 case-control study were identified to be eligible for this systematic review. The majority of the included studies achieved a moderate to high-degree quality according to the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Moreover, the eligible studies included a total of 1,400 patients with CRC and mean age of 60 years, the majority of whom were male. Endoglin was observed to be more upregulated in colorectal carcinomas and associated with poor survival outcomes, compared to healthy controls. The levels of Endoglin seem to reflect the degree of cancer invasiveness, therefore predicting dismal prognosis in patients with CRC. Larger and well-designed clinical studies with longer follow-up intervals are needed to investigate the role of Endoglin and its association with cancer metastasis.

Abstract: First described in 1998, apelin is one of the endogenous ligands of the apelinergic receptor. Since its discovery, its possible role in human physiology and disease has been intensively studied. Apelin is a native cardioprotective agent that the body synthesizes to create atheroprotective, antihypertensive, and regenerative effects in the body. By antagonizing the RAA system, apelin could play an important role in heart failure and hypertension. It is also involved in myocardial protection against ischemia/reperfusion injury, post-ischemic remodeling, and myocardial fibrosis. A small number of studies even suggest that serum apelin levels may be involved the development of life-threatening arrhythmias. All this information generated excitement about potential therapeutic effects in patients with heart failure and myocardial infarction. The therapeutic index of apelin is unknown but is anticipated to be favorable based on the small number of studies. In this review, we summarize the mechanisms by which apelin exerts its cardioprotective effects and its connection with the cardiorenal axis. Also, we report the potential therapeutic applications of synthetic and native regulated apelin. If larger studies can be performed, it is possible that apelin-mediated drug treatment may play a major role for a large number of patients worldwide in the future.

Abstract: Gene therapy represents a promising method for treating genetic disorders or diseases consisting in the transfer of genetic material (DNA) to cells in order to substitute or to slow down the evolution of the defective gene in cells. Theoretical models to predict DNA release are difficult to build in the classical approach of continuous and differentiable physical quantities, due to the high number of interdependent phenomena that occur simultaneous. The article presents a theoretical model based on the fractal theory of motions in the form of Scale Relativity Theory to describe nonlinear behaviors in gene therapy. Correlations of the theoretical model with experimental data are also observed.

Abstract: Colorectal cancer is the third most prevalent malignancy in Western countries and a major cause of death despite recent improvements in screening programs and early detection methods. In the last decade, a growing effort has been put into better understanding how the immune system interacts with cancer cells. Even if treatments with immune checkpoint inhibitors (anti-PD1, anti-PD-L1, anti-CTLA4) were proven effective for several cancer types, the benefit for colorectal cancer patients is still limited. However, a subset of patients with deficient mismatch repair (dMMR)/microsatellite-instability-high (MSI-H) metastatic colorectal cancer has been observed to have a prolonged benefit to immune checkpoint inhibitors. As a result, pembrolizumab and nivolumab +/− ipilimumab recently obtained the Food and Drug Administration approval. This review aims to highlight the body of knowledge on immunotherapy in the colorectal cancer setting, discussing the potential mechanisms of resistance and future strategies to extend its use.

Abstract: The prevalence of both cancer and end-stage renal disease is increasing. In addition, medical advances have meant increased survival rates for both diseases. Many chemotherapeutics are renally excreted, and conversely, renal insufficiency promotes a pro-neoplastic state, including genitourinary and other cancers. Dialysis prolongs life while increasing cancer risk. Proposed oncogenic mechanisms include immune dysfunction, chronic inflammation, changes in gut microbiota and stimulation of the renin–angiotensin system. This review summarizes current concepts in the relationship between cancer and renal insufficiency.

Abstract: Metastatic or advanced breast cancer (mBC/ABC) remains incurable despite many different systemic treatment options. Hormone receptor positive (HR+) disease represents the most common subtype in both early and advanced disease. A better understanding of the biology of this BC subtype, in particular regarding potential mechanisms of endocrine resistance, has led to the development of CDK4/6 inhibitors. All three selective CDK4/6 inhibitors, palbociclib, ribociclib and abemaciclib have shown to significantly improve progression-free survival (PFS) when combined to endocrine therapy as first-line treatment for patients with HR+/HER-2 negative ABC, who have progressed on or after adjuvant endocrine therapy. All three of them have also shown an improved PFS as 2nd line therapy for HR+/Her2 negative ABC. Their toxicity profile is favorable, with hematological toxicity (mainly neutropenia) being predominant, followed by diarrhea and fatigue. Quality of life has been maintained in the 1st line setting or improved in the 2nd line setting. Overall survival (OS) has been reported so far only in 2 out of 7 trials as first line therapy and the difference did not reach statistical significance. In this article we review the biology of CDK signaling pathway and its inhibitors, preclinical and clinical data of all three investigated selective CDK4/6 inhibitors and their toxicity. We also discuss how these agents are being included in current international guidelines and future directions for these agents in other subtypes of breast cancer, in both advanced disease and early-stage disease.

Abstract: Background and Aim: In metastatic colorectal cancer, in the last 10 years, hepatic arterial infusion (HAI) was proposed as an alternative using various chemotherapy agents. The insertion of a port-a-cath in the hepatic artery is needed and there are various methods to do that, from classical to interventional approach. Patients and Methods: Patients were selected with metastatic colorectal cancer with inoperable liver metastasis only and were treated with oxaliplatin HAI, combined with systemic intravenously chemotherapy. The port-a-cath insertion was done using the classical approach in the same surgical time with the subclavicular vein port insertion. Results: Thirty-two patients were treated. During our experience we did not encounter intra-operative complications. Among the immediate post-operative complications mainly consisted of metabolic complications (6.2%) and infection was the most common late complication (9.4%). In one case we removed the port-a-cath, thus the patient was not able to continue the treatment. Conclusion: When talking about the safety of the procedure, we didn’t find it to be more at risk for the patients compared to the literature. Even though the antibiotic prophylaxis is done regularly, the risk of infection remains, especially as a late complication.

Abstract: Background The aim of this study was to describe the findings of renal biopsies from a large nephrology center in Iasi, Romania, performed between 2005 and 2010. We compared these findings with our previous ones, from 1995 to 2004, as well as with similar reports. Methods We studied retrospectively 239 renal biopsies. The indications for renal biopsy were categorized into: nephrotic syndrome, acute nephritic syndrome, asymptomatic urinary abnormalities, acute kidney injury, and chronic kidney disease of unknown etiology. Results During the past 16 years, a gradual increase in the annual number of renal biopsies/per million population (p.m.p.)/year was observed, although this incidence remained lower than in other European countries. Nephrotic syndrome was the indication for renal biopsy in over 50% of cases. Glomerulonephritis (GN) was the main histological diagnosis in 91% of cases, of which 56% were primary GN and 35% were secondary GN. The frequency of various types of primary GN was: membranoproliferative GN (MPGN) - 29.3%, membranous nephropathy (MN) -27.5%, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) - 17.2%, mesangial GN (including IgAN) -13.7%, crescentic GN - 9.4%, and minimal change disease (MCD) - 2.5%. Compared to the previously reported period (1994–2004), we observed a significant decrease in the frequency of MPGN and significant increases in the frequency of FSGS and, particularly MN - which more than doubled. Conclusion We report significant changes in the histological spectrum of GN in North-Eastern Romania in 2005–2010, compared to the previously reported 10-yrs. These changes seem to be following a trend that has also been observed in Western countries a few decades ago, and which may have a socioeconomic explanation.

Abstract: Introduction: It is imperative for patients to respect the prescribed treatments to achieve the anticipated clinical outcomes, including the outpatients receiving oral anti-cancer drugs such as selective cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitors (CDK 4/6i). With the introduction of three CDK 4/6i drugs in the Romanian pharmaceutical market in 2018, our study aimed to evaluate medication adherence and the influencing factors among patients undergoing treatment with palbociclib, ribociclib, or abemaciclib for advanced or metastatic breast cancer.Methods: Medication adherence was assessed using the Proportion of Days Covered (PDC) method, and Spearman correlation analysis was conducted to explore the relationships between adherence, age, gender, and follow-up duration.Results: The study enrolled 330 breast cancer patients, with an average follow-up period of 14.6 ± 12.5 months for palbociclib, 10.6 ± 7.1 months for ribociclib, and 8.6 ± 6.4 months for abemaciclib-treated patients. A small proportion of patients demonstrated non-adherence: 12.8% for palbociclib, 14.6% for ribociclib, and 14.7% for abemaciclib. Among patients receiving palbociclib, there was no significant correlation between adherence, age (rho = 0.07, p = 0.35), or gender (rho = −0.144, p = 0.054). However, a significant correlation was found with the duration of follow-up (rho = −0.304, p < 0.0001). Similar results were observed for patients receiving ribociclib or abemaciclib. Most patients received combination therapy with letrozole (46%) and exemestane (13%) for palbociclib, letrozole (48%) and fulvestrant (19%) for ribociclib, and fulvestrant (39%) and letrozole (27%) for abemaciclib,Discussion: High adherence rates were observed among patients treated with CDK 4/6i drugs, with no significant differences noted among the three drugs in this class. However, the collected patient data was limited, lacking information on adverse reactions that could potentially lead to treatment discontinuation, as determined by the oncologist’s decision not to prescribe. Consequently, a comprehensive understanding of all factors contributing to the low adherence levels is hindered.

29. A Holographic-Type Model in the Description of Polymer–Drug Delivery Processes

Abstract: A unitary model of drug release dynamics is proposed, assuming that the polymer–drug system can be assimilated into a multifractal mathematical object. Then, we made a description of drug release dynamics that implies, via Scale Relativity Theory, the functionality of continuous and undifferentiable curves (fractal or multifractal curves), possibly leading to holographic-like behaviors. At such a conjuncture, the Schrödinger and Madelung multifractal scenarios become compatible: in the Schrödinger multifractal scenario, various modes of drug release can be “mimicked” (via period doubling, damped oscillations, modulated and “chaotic” regimes), while the Madelung multifractal scenario involves multifractal diffusion laws (Fickian and non-Fickian diffusions). In conclusion, we propose a unitary model for describing release dynamics in polymer–drug systems. In the model proposed, the polymer–drug dynamics can be described by employing the Scale Relativity Theory in the monofractal case or also in the multifractal one.

30. Theoretical—Experimental Approach of Chitosan/Quaternized Chitosan Nanofibers’ Behavior in Wound Exudate Media

Subjects: chitosan fibers, biomaterials, engineering nanomaterials, composite nanomaterials, enzymatic degradation, Pharmacy and materia medica, RS1-441
Abstract: This study aimed to investigate the behavior of chitosan/quaternized chitosan fibers in media mimicking wound exudates to understand their capacities as wound dressing. Fiber analysis of the fibers using dynamic vapor sorption proved their ability to adsorb moisture up to 60% and then to desorb it as a function of humidity, indicating their outstanding breathability. Dissolution analyses showed that quaternized chitosan leached from the fibers in water and PBS, whereas only small portions of chitosan were solubilized in water. In media containing lysozyme, the fibers degraded with a rate determined by their composition and pH, reaching a mass loss of up to 47% in media of physiologic pH. Notably, in media mimicking the wound exudate during healing, they adsorbed moisture even when their mass loss due to biodegradation was high, whereas they were completely degraded in the media of normal tissues, indicating bioabsorbable dressing capacities. A mathematical model was constructed, which characterized the degradation rate and morphology changes of chitosan/quaternized chitosan fibers through analyses of dynamics in scale space, using the Theory of Scale Relativity. The model was validated using experimental data, making it possible to generalize it to the degradation of other biopolymeric systems that address wound healing.
