-) advanced breast cancer (ABC). Impact on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is important to consider, given the palliative nature of ABC treatment. In this study, abemaciclib plus fulvestrant, compared with placebo plus fulvestrant, significantly delayed sustained deterioration of pain and other patient-reported symptoms (including fatigue, nausea, vomiting), and social and cognitive functioning. Combined with demonstrated clinical benefit and tolerability, the stabilization of patient-reported symptoms and HRQoL further supports abemaciclib plus fulvestrant as a desirable treatment option in endocrine resistant, HR+, HER2- ABC. © 2019 Eli Lilly and Company.

This study hypothesized that professional oral care (POC) before everolimus treatment could reduce the incidence of everolimus-induced oral mucositis. MATERIALS AND METHODS This randomized, multicenter, open-label, phase III study evaluated the efficacy of POC in preventing everolimus-induced mucositis. Patients were randomized into POC and control groups (11 ratio) and received everolimus with exemestane. Patients in the POC group underwent teeth surface cleaning, scaling, and tongue cleaning before everolimus initiation and continued to receive weekly POC throughout the 8-week treatment period. Patients in the control group brushed their own teeth and gargled with 0.9% sodium chloride solution or water. The primary endpoint was the incidence of all grades of oral mucositis. We targeted acquisition of 200 patients with a 2-sided type I error rate of 5% and 80% power toial that prophylactically used professional oral care (POC), available worldwide, did not show a greater than 25% difference in mucositis. The 12% difference in grade 1 or higher mucositis and especially the ∼20% difference in grade 2 mucositis are likely clinically meaningful to patients. POC before treatment should be considered as a treatment option of oral care for postmenopausal patients who are receiving everolimus and exemestane for treatment of hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer and metastatic breast cancer. However, POC was not adequate for prophylactic oral mucositis in these patients, and dexamethasone mouthwash prophylaxis is standard treatment before everolimus. © 2019 The Authors.

Additionally, substance use may pose adverse health issues post-transplant. Yet, practices related to substance use among pediatric patients who require organ transplant remain inconsistent. In this study, providers were surveyed for their perspectives on substance use among solid organ transplant candidates within a pediatric hospital. METHODS An online survey was administered to providers on the heart, kidney, and liver transplant teams at one tertiary pediatric care center located in the intermountain region of the United States (N = 50, 42% response rate). Providers answered questions about the need for a hospital-wide policy across heart, liver, and kidney transplant teams within this transplant center, timing of substance use evaluation, types of substances eliciting concerns based on organ, and recommended interventions. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. RESULTS Providers felt strongly about the need for a policy to guide recommendations for substance use among transplant candidates. Providers wanted a hospital-wide substance use policy (84%) and a standardized measure for assessing substance use (98%). Respondents (98%) indicated that substance use should be assessed during the pretransplant evaluation. Respondents expressed varied concerns based on substance and organ type, and recommended interventions for patients to cease substance use prior to transplant listing. CONCLUSIONS This study highlights the need for a clear, directive, hospital-wide policy and standardized procedure for evaluating substance use among adolescent solid organ transplant candidates nationally across pediatric transplant centers. © 2020 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.In this work, the feasibility of using flattening filter free (FFF) beams in volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) total body irradiation (TBI) treatment planning to decrease protracted beam-on times for these treatments was investigated. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/azd-5462.html In addition, a methodology was developed to generate standardized VMAT TBI treatment plans based on patient physical dimensions to eliminate plan optimization time. A planning study cohort of 47 TBI patients previously treated with optimized VMAT ARC 6 MV beams was retrospectively examined. These patients were sorted into six categories depending on height and anteroposterior (AP) width at the umbilicus. Using Varian Eclipse, clinical 40 cm × 10 cm open field arcs were substituted with 6 MV FFF. Mid-plane lateral dose profiles in conjunction with relative arc output factors (RAOF) yielded how far a given multileaf collimator (MLC) leaf must move in order to achieve a mid-plane 100% isodose for a specific control point. Linear interpolation gave the dynamic MLC aperture forcal Physics published by Wiley Periodicals, Inc. on behalf of American Association of Physicists in Medicine.BACKGROUND Onychomycosis, a fungal nail infection, is an important problem as it may cause local pain, paresthesia, difficulties in performing activities of daily life, and impair social interactions. Systemic treatment of onychomycosis presents safety issues due to possible drug-drug interactions and severe side effects. Although topical therapy of onychomycosis is advantageous due to its localized effect, the efficacy of such therapy depends on achieving effective concentrations of antifungal agents at the infection site. An approach to reach to this end would be driving benefit from synergic activity of antifungal agents for example itraconazole and monoterpenes. However, because of low transungual penetration of itraconazole, a molecule with high molecular weight and very low water-solubility, the effect of the latter compounds on itraconazole nail delivery should be investigated, which was the aim of this study. METHODS Ex vivo permeation experiments were carried out through soaking the nail clippings of ten healthy volunteers in control and working solutions containing itraconazole (1 mg mL-1 ) and itraconazole (1 mg mL-1 ) plus 6% of each monoterpene including camphor, eucalyptol, menthol, and thymol, respectively, for 36 hours.
