Targets of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell in breast cancer and the application progress / 肿瘤研究与临床

Breast cancer is the most common malignant tumor in women. It is particularly important to seek targeted therapy other than surgery, chemoradiotherapy, endocrine therapy. With the continuous exploration of tumor immunotherapy, more and more therapeutic targets have been discovered. This paper reviews therapeutic targets of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) and the application in breast cancer.

Progress of immediate breast reconstruction after modified radical mastectomy / 肿瘤研究与临床

At present, the most commonly used treatment methods for breast cancer are modified radical mastectomy (MRM) and breast conserving surgery. Patients undergoing breast conserving surgery can achieve good postoperative appearance and efficacy, while its surgical indications are very strict. Most women suffering from breast cancer cannot avoid the physical and mental trauma caused by the loss of breast after MRM. The promotion of immediate breast reconstruction (IBR) has greatly improved the quality of life of patients after surgery. This paper reviews the progress of indications, influencing factors, various surgical methods of IBR after MRM.

Progress of targeting PI3K-AKT-mTOR signaling pathway inhibitors in treatment of triple-negative breast cancer / 肿瘤研究与临床

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a subtype of breast cancer, which has the biological characteristics of high invasiveness, early recurrence, rapid progression and easy invasion. Current studies have demonstrated that abnormal activation of the PI3K-AKT-mTOR signaling pathway is more common in TNBC. This article reviews the abnormal activation mechanism of PI3K-AKT-mTOR signaling pathway, related clinical progress and the application of related targeted inhibitors to provide more approaches for investigational therapies in TNBC.

A multicenter, randomized, controlled, phase Ⅲ clinical study of PEG-rhG-CSF for preventing chemotherapy-induced neutropenia in patients with breast cancer and non-small cell lung cancer / 中华肿瘤杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the safety and efficacy of pegylated recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (PEG-rhG-CSF) in preventing chemotherapy-induced neutropenia in patients with breast cancer and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and to provide the basis for clinical application.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>According to the principle of open-label, randomized, parallel-group controlled clinical trial, all patients were randomized by 1∶1∶1 into three groups to receive PEG-rhG-CSF 100 μg/kg, PEG-rhG-CSF 6 mg, or rhG-CSF 5 μg/kg, respectively. The patients with breast cancer received two chemotherapy cycles, and the NSCLC patients received 1-2 cycles of chemotherapy according to their condition. All patients were treated with the combination chemotherapy of TAC (docetaxel+ epirubicin+ cyclophosphamide) or TA (docetaxel+ epirubicin), or the chemotherapy of docetaxel combined with carboplatin, with a 21 day cycle.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The duration of grade 3-4 neutropenia in the PEG-rhG-CSF 100 μg/kg and PEG-rhG-CSF 6 mg groups were similar with that in the rhG-CSF 5 μg/kg group (P>0.05 for all). The incidence rate of grade 3-4 neutropenia in the PEG-rhG-CSF 100 μg/kg group, PEG-rhG-CSF 6 mg group, and G-CSF 5 μg/kg group were 69.7%, 68.4%, and 69.5%, respectively, with a non-significant difference among the three groups (P=0.963). The incidence rate of febrile neutropenia in the PEG-rhG-CSF 100 μg/kg group, PEG-rhG-CSF 6 mg group and G-CSF 5 μg/kg group were 6.1%, 6.4%, and 5.5%, respectively, showing no significant difference among them (P=0.935). The incidence rate of adverse events in the PEG-rhG-CSF 100 μg/kg group, PEG-rhG-CSF 6 mg group and G-CSF 5 μg / kg group were 6.7%, 4.1%, and 5.5%, respectively, showing a non-significant difference among them (P=0.581).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>In patients with breast cancer and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) undergoing TAC/TA chemotherapy, a single 100 μg/kg injection or a single fixed 6 mg dose of PEG-rhG-CSF at 48 hours after chemotherapy show definite therapeutic effect with a low incidence of adverse events and mild adverse reactions. Compared with the continuous daily injection of rhG-CSF 5 μg/kg/d, a single 100 μg/kg injection or a single fixed 6 mg dose of PEG-rhG-CSF has similar effect and is more advantageous in preventing chemotherapy-induced neutropenia.</p>

Clinical comparative study of vinorelbine and docetaxel separately combined with lobaplatin in treatment of recurrent and metastatic breast cancer / 中国基层医药

Objective To investigate clinical effect and safety difference of vinorelbine and docetaxel sepa-rately combined with lobaplatin in treatment of recurrent and metastatic breast cancer.Methods 160 patients with recurrent and metastatic breast cancer were chosen from July 2009 to July 2012 in our hospital,and they were random-ly divided into two groups,including A group (80 patients)with vinorelbine and B group (80 patients)with docetaxel on the basis of lobaplatin.The clinical efficacy for short -term,survival rate with follow -up and side effects incidence of both groups were compared.Results The RR and DCR of A group were 51.25%,68.75%,which of B group were 55.00%,71.25%.There was no significant difference in the clinical efficacy for short -term between the two groups (χ2 =1.04,2.37,all P >0.05).The survival rates in 1,2 and 3 years after treatment of A group were 60.00%,53.75%,28.75%,those of B group were 67.50%,57.50%,31.25%.There was no significant difference in the survival rate with follow -up between the two groups (χ2 =2.14,3.01,1.87,all P >0.05).The incidence rate of drug side effects of B group was significantly lower than A group(χ2 =13.14,9.33,15.74,11.65,8.29,all P <0.05).Conclusion Vinorelbine and docetaxel separately combined with lobaplatin in treatment of recurrent and metastatic breast cancer can efficiently control the disease progress and prolong the survival time;but docetaxel com-bined with lobaplatin treatment is helpful to reduce the risk of serious side effects.
