Evaluating the effectiveness and safety of camrelizumab in combination with XELOX chemotherapy plus bevacizumab or regorafenib in patients with advanced colorectal cancer.

This study investigated the effectiveness and safety of camrelizumab (SHR1210) in combination with XELOX (capecitabine and oxaliplatin) chemotherapy plus bevacizumab (Avastin) or regorafenib (Stivarga) as first-line therapy in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). The data showed that the combination was effective for these patients with manageable side effects.

Evaluating the effectiveness and safety of combining proton plus carbon-ion radiotherapy with chemotherapy given at the same time in patients with limited-stage small-cell lung cancer.

This study investigated the effectiveness and safety of combining proton radiotherapy (PRT) plus carbon-ion radiotherapy (CIRT) with chemotherapy (CT) given at the same time in patients with limited-stage (LS) small cell lung cancer (SCLC). The data showed that PRT plus CIRT with CT given at the same time was effective with manageable side effects in these patients.

How useful is bortezomib maintenance after allogeneic stem cell transplant in young or high-risk patients with multiple myeloma?

This study investigated the use of bortezomib (BTZ; Velcade) maintenance after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (alloHCT) for improving relapse and chronic graft versus host disease (cGVHD) in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) that are young or high-risk. The data showed that BTZ maintenance is effective and safe in these patients.

Comparing response to SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine doses for patients with RA and healthy controls.

This study evaluated immune responses after two doses of SARS-CoV-2 messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines in patients with inflammatory joint diseases including rheumatoid arthritis (RA) compared to healthy controls (HCs). The data showed that patients with inflammatory joint diseases had similar responses to mRNA vaccines after 2 doses.

Do combination therapies given in fixed-doses polypills with aspirin reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease events?

This study investigated whether a combination pill given in fixed doses with or without aspirin can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease events in patients without a previous history of cardiovascular disease. The data showed that a fixed-dose combination treatment strategy with aspirin significantly reduced the risks of cardiovascular disease, heart attacks, stroke, and cardiovascular death in these patients.

Comparing the effectiveness and safety of first-line treatment options in patients with advanced ALK-rearranged NSCLC.

This study compared the effectiveness and safety of first-line treatment options in patients with advanced ALK-rearranged non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The data showed that alectinib (Alecensa) and lorlatinib (Lorbrena) were the most effective and safest first-line treatment options for these patients.

breast cancer | Research | 10 pages | source: Critical reviews in oncology/hematology | Added Jan 09, 2022

Evaluating the effectiveness of adding immunotherapy to chemotherapy for metastatic triple-negative breast cancer.

This study compared the effectiveness of adding immunotherapy (IT) to chemotherapy (CT) for the treatment of patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). The data showed that the addition of IT to CT significantly improved survival without cancer worsening. However, IT plus CT combination did not significantly improve overall survival and was associated with a higher rate of side effects in these patients.
