To investigate whether two brands of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) from the same manufacturer lead to varied effects when administered to patients with Kawasaki disease.

(KD) METHODS:

Clinical characteristics, laboratory data, IVIG response, and coronary arteries change were analyzed between two groups.

RESULTS:

We included 158 KD cases. The mean age at KD diagnosis was 23 ± 1.39 (range, 2-95) months. In the first IVIG course, 18 (11.4 %) patients were unresponsive. TBSF (brand T) and Privigen (brand P) were administered to 94 and 64 patients, respectively. The brand P group had a significantly longer fever (P < 0.001) and hospitalization (P = 0.007) durations after the therapy and a higher number of IVIG unresponsiveness (P = 0.016) than the brand T group. In the multivariate logistic regression analysis, a high Formosa score (≥3, Odds ratio [OR], 4.939; 95 % confidence interval [CI], 1.199-20.337; P = 0.027), high levels of CRP (≥12 mg/L, OR: 4.257,95 % CI,1.265-14.322; P = 0.019), and treatment with brand P (OR, 3.621; 95 % CI, 1.029-12.677; P = 0.045) were independent risk factors for IVIG unresponsiveness.

CONCLUSIONS:

Compared with brand T, brand P prolonged the fever and hospitalization durations after IVIG treatment and increased the proportion of IVIG treatment unresponsiveness, but it did not infer the coronary arteries sequelae.

Article

作者: Mallett, Kimberly A ; Turrisi, Robert ; Lenker, Lea K ; Glenn, Shannon D ; Waldron, Katja A

PURPOSE:

Examine brief parent interventions (PBIs) on a nationally representative sample of teenagers (ages 15-18 years) to change drinking, teens declining (i.e., saying no) to ride with impaired drivers, and increase parent communication about alcohol.

METHODS:

Parent-teen dyads (N = 1,176) recruited from a web panel completed online surveys at baseline (T1), 30 days (T2), 6 months (T3), and 12 months (T4) post baseline (P_sex: 54% female; T_sex: 49% female; T_age: M = 16.33, SD = 1.09; 76% White, 27% Hispanic). Dyads were randomly assigned to: Active Control (n = 390, 33.1%), Surgeon General (SG; n = 393, 33.4%), or Mothers Against Drunk Driving PBI (MADD; n = 393, 33.4%). Aim 1 was an intent-to-treat analysis of the efficacy comparing the Active Control, SG, and MADD conditions on typical weekend drinking and declining riding with an impaired driver from T1 to T4. Aim 2 examined differences in parent communication at T2 by different levels of engagement. Aim 3 examined differences in efficacy comparing the SG and MADD engagement subgroups at T4. Aims were evaluated by comparing means using Tukey's test to reduce experiment-wise error.

RESULTS:

Aim 1 revealed no differences in drinking, but participants in the SG and MADD conditions were able to maintain increases in declining riding with impaired drivers. Aim 2 revealed highly engaged participants reported higher parent communication than moderate and low participants. Aim 3 revealed some highly engaged participants reported less drinking and more declining riding with impaired drivers.

DISCUSSION:

PBIs may be successful in helping teens decline rides with impaired drivers. Highly engaged parents reported more positive program outcomes than moderate and low engaged parents.

Chemical modification of guar gum was done by graft copolymerization of monomer hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) using azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as initiator. Optimal reaction parameters were settled by varying one reaction condition and keeping the other constant. The optimum reaction conditions worked out were solvent system: binary, [H₂O] = 15.00 mL, [acetone] = 5.00 mL, [HEMA] = 82.217× 10^-2 mol/L, [AIBN] = 3.333 × 10^-2 mol/L, reaction time = 3 h, reaction temperature = 60 °C on to 1.00 g guar gum with P_g = 1694.6 and %GE = 68,704.152. Pure guar gum polymer and grafts were analyzed by several physicochemical investigation techniques like FTIR, SEM, XRD, EDX, and swelling studies. Percent swelling of the guar gum polymer and grafts was investigated at pH 2.2, 7.0, 7.4 and 9.4 concerning time. The finest yield of P_s was recorded at pH 9.4 with time 24 h for graft copolymer. Guar gum and grafted samples were explored for the sorption of toxic dye Bismarck brown Y from the aqueous solution with respect to variable contact time, pH, temperature and dye concentration so as to investigate the stimuli responsive sorption behaviour. Graft copolymers showed better results than guar gum with percent dye uptake (Du) of 97.588 % in 24 h contact time, 35 °C temperature, 9.4 pH at 150.00 ppm dye feed concentration as compared to Guar gum which only showed 85.260 % dye uptake at alike dye fed concentration. The kinetic behaviour of the polymeric samples was evaluated by applying many adsorption isotherms and kinetic models. The value of 1/n was between 0 → 1 showing that there was physisorption of the BB dye that took place on the surface of the polymers. Thermodynamics of BB Y adsorption onto hydrogels was investigated concerning the Van't Hoff equation. -∆G° values obtained from the curve proved the spontanity of the process. Within the context of adsorption efficiency, an investigation was conducted to examine the process of sorption of Bismarck brown Y dye from aqueous solutions. The graft copolymers demonstrated remarkable adsorption abilities, achieving a dye uptake (Du) of 97.588 % over a 24-h period at a temperature of 35 °C, pH level of 9.4, and a dye concentration of 150.00 ppm. The raised adsorption capacity was additionally corroborated by the application of several adsorption isotherms and kinetic models, which indicated that physisorption is the prevailing process/mechanism. Additionally, the thermodynamic research, utilising the Van't Hoff equation, validated the spontaneity of the adsorption phenomenon, as evidenced by the presence of a negative ∆G° values. The thermodynamic analysis revealed herein establishes a strong scientific foundation for the effectiveness of adsorbent composed of graft copolymers based on guar gum. The research conclude the efficiency of the guar gum based grafted copolymers for the water remediation as efficient adsorbents. The captured dye can be re-utilised and the hydrogels can be used for the same purpose in number of cycles.

Janssen Receives Positive CHMP Opinion for AKEEGA ® (Niraparib and Abiraterone Acetate Dual Action Tablet) Plus Prednisone or Prednisolone for the Treatment of Adult Patients with BRCA1/2 Gene-Mutated Metastatic Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer

BEERSE, Belgium, 24 February 2023 – The Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & Johnson announced today that the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) has recommended marketing authorisation for AKEEGA® (niraparib and AA), in the form of a DAT, given with P or prednisolone, for the treatment of adult patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) and BRCA1/2 mutations (germline and/or somatic) in whom chemotherapy is not clinically indicated.[1]Niraparib is a highly selective poly adenosine diphosphate-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitor.2 Together with AA, a cytochrome P450 17α-hydroxylase (CYP17) inhibitor,[1] the combination DAT regimen targets two oncogenic drivers (mutations responsible for both the development and maintenance of prostate cancer) in patients with mCRPC, namely androgen receptor axis (AR-axis) and BRCA1/2 gene mutations.[2],[3]Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men in Europe.[4] Despite treatment advances, for those whose cancer has progressed to mCRPC, the impact can be devastating with an average overall survival ranging from 13-36 months.[5],[6],[7] Patients with mCRPC and BRCA gene mutations are more likely to have aggressive disease, poor outcomes and a shorter survival time.[8],[9],[10],[11] BRCA1/2 gene mutations have been identified in approximately 10-15 percent of patients with mCRPC.[12],[13]“Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer remains a lethal disease, with high unmet needs in terms of treatment options, particularly for patients with BRCA1/2 gene mutations,” said Elena Castro*, Consultant Oncologist, Hospital Universitario 12 de Octubre, Instituto de Investigación Sanitaria Hospital 12 de Octubre, Madrid, Spain. “We’ve seen that in these patients, niraparib combined with abiraterone acetate and prednisone significantly reduces the risk of disease progression or death compared to AAP. This niraparib-based regimen is a welcomed targeted treatment option and, if approved, has the potential to impact the standard of care for men with mCRPC BRCA who are treated with first-line therapy.”“In recent years, we’ve focused on precision medicine in prostate cancer because we know patients with gene mutations, such as BRCA1/2, face a worse prognosis than those without,” said Martin Vogel, EMEA Therapeutic Area Lead Oncology, Janssen-Cilag GmbH. “The positive CHMP opinion reinforces the benefit of this niraparib combination and marks an important milestone in addressing BRCA1/2 mutations as we continue to drive progress towards changing the outlook for patients with mCRPC.”The positive CHMP opinion is based on results of the randomised, double-blind, placebo controlled, Phase 3 MAGNITUDE study (NCT03748641) which assessed whether the addition of niraparib to AAP improved outcomes in those with first-line mCRPC, with or without alterations in homologous recombination repair (HRR) associated genes.[1],[16] Patients with HRR gene alterations were randomised to receive niraparib 200 mg once daily plus AAP [n=212], or placebo and AAP [n=211]. In MAGNITUDE, a total of 423 patients with HRR gene alterations were enrolled, 225 (53.2 percent) of whom had BRCA mutations.[14] This is the largest cohort of BRCA1/2-positive patients with mCRPC.[16] First results, presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology – Genitourinary Cancers Symposium (ASCO GU) 2022 Annual Meeting,2 showed niraparib plus AAP significantly improved rPFS (as analysed by blinded independent central review) in all HRR-positive patients. This improvement was most pronounced in patients with BRCA1/2 gene mutations, where a statistically significant 47 percent risk reduction was observed for rPFS (HR 0.53; p=0.001).[2] Updated results from the second interim analysis (IA2) of MAGNITUDE were presented at the recent ASCO GU 2023 Annual Meeting.[14] In the IA2, at 24.8 months of median follow-up in the BRCA subgroup, rPFS by central review demonstrated a consistent and clinically meaningful treatment effect favouring niraparib plus AAP, with a median rPFS of 19.5 months compared with 10.9 months for placebo plus AAP. Additionally, in the BRCA subgroup, there was a trend towards improved overall survival (OS) with niraparib plus AAP, strong improvement in time to symptomatic progression (TSP) and continued consistent improvement of time-to-initiation of cytotoxic chemotherapy (TCC).[16]The observed safety profile of the combination of niraparib and AAP was consistent with the known safety profile of each agent.[2] Of the patients with HRR gene alterations, 67 percent experienced Grade 3/4 adverse events (AEs) in the combination arm versus 46.4 percent in the control arm. Discontinuation rates due to AEs for the combination arm and control arm were 10.8 percent and 4.7 percent, respectively. The combination of niraparib and AAP also maintained overall quality of life in comparison with placebo and AAP as measured on the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy–Prostate (FACT-P) scale.[2]“Prostate cancer is a heterogeneous disease made up of many biologically distinct subpopulations. The data from MAGNITUDE supports the significant value of biomarker testing to identify the subgroup of patients most likely to derive a clinical benefit from a targeted treatment, and overcome the poor prognosis of mCRPC with BRCA mutations,” said Kiran Patel, M.D., Vice President, Clinical Development, Solid Tumors, Janssen Research & Development, LLC. “At Janssen, we are dedicated to continued innovation in prostate cancer and now look forward to working with health authorities to bring this niraparib-based treatment option to patients as soon as possible.”###About NiraparibNiraparib is an orally administered, highly selective poly (ADP ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor, that is currently being studied by Janssen for the treatment of patients with prostate cancer.[4] Additional ongoing studies include the Phase 3 AMPLITUDE study (NCT04497844) evaluating the combination of niraparib and AAP in a HRR biomarker-selected patient population with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC).[15]In April 2016, Janssen Biotech, Inc. entered into a worldwide (except Japan) collaboration and license agreement with TESARO, Inc. (acquired by GSK in 2019), for exclusive rights to niraparib in prostate cancer.[16]In the EU, niraparib is indicated as monotherapy for the maintenance treatment of adult patients with advanced epithelial high-grade ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer who are in a complete or partial response following completion of first-line platinum-based chemotherapy; and as monotherapy for the maintenance treatment of adult patients with platinum-sensitive relapsed high grade serious epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer who are in complete or partial response to platinum-based chemotherapy.[5] Niraparib is currently marketed by GSK as ZEJULA®.[5] About abiraterone acetateAbiraterone acetate is an orally administered androgen biosynthesis inhibitor. In the European Union, abiraterone acetate is indicated with prednisone or prednisolone for the treatment of newly diagnosed high risk mHSPC in adult men in combination with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT); the treatment of mCRPC in adult men who are asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic after failure of ADT in whom chemotherapy is not yet clinically indicated; and the treatment of mCRPC in adult men whose disease has progressed on or after a docetaxel-based chemotherapy regimen.[3] Abiraterone acetate is currently marketed by Janssen-Cilag International NV as ZYTIGA®.[3] About Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate CancerMetastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) characterises cancer that no longer responds to ADT and has spread to other parts of the body.[17] The most common metastatic sites are bones, followed by the lymph nodes, liver and lungs.[18] Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men in Europe.[6] In 2020, more than one million men around the world were diagnosed with prostate cancer.[19] Patients with mCRPC and HRR gene alterations, of which BRCA mutations are the most common, are more likely to have aggressive disease, poor outcomes and a shorter survival time.[10] ,[11] ,[12] ,[13] About MAGNITUDEMAGNITUDE (NCT03748641) is a Phase 3 randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicentre clinical study evaluating the safety and efficacy of the combination of niraparib and AAP for patients with mCRPC, with or without certain HRR gene alterations and who have not received prior therapy for mCRPC except for standard of care, next-generation androgen receptor inhibitors and up to 4 months of AAP.4 The study includes patients with (HRR biomarker [BM] positive; ATM, BRCA1, BRCA2, BRIP1, CDK12, CHEK2, FANCA, HDAC2, PALB2) and without specified gene alterations (HRR BM negative), who were randomised 1:1 to receive niraparib 200 mg once daily plus AAP or placebo plus AAP.[4] Additionally in an open-label cohort of HRR-positive patients, all patients received the DAT formulation of niraparib and abiraterone acetate plus prednisone. The primary endpoint of the MAGNITUDE trial is rPFS assessed by blinded independent central review. Secondary endpoints include time-to-initiation of cytotoxic chemotherapy, time to symptomatic progression and overall survival.[4] About the Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & JohnsonAt Janssen, we're creating a future where disease is a thing of the past.
