ABSTRACT
The radiotheranostics allows for precise diagnosis and treatment of differentiated thyroid cancer,neuroendocrine tumors,prostate cancer and other malignant diseases through providing solutions for personalized medicine.The development of radiotheranostics owns opportunities but also confronts challenges,including developing novel radiopharmaceuticals with new targets,clinical translation,radiometry and safety assessment.The challenges and opportunities of radiotheranostics were looked in this article.
ABSTRACT
Combining with molecular imaging,nuclear medicine gradually utilized radiopharmaceuticals with targeted radionuclide therapy for accurate diagnosis and individualized treatment of diseases,hence advancing the progresses of theranostics.The clinical research progresses of radiotheranostics in diagnosis and therapy of diseases were reviewed in this article.
ABSTRACT
Tirzepatide is the first-in-class dual agonist of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP) receptor, which plays a variety of physiological effects by imitating natural GLP-1 and GIP. In the completed large phase III series of clinical studies of SURPASS and SURMOUNT, Tirzepatide has demonstrated excellent effects in decreasing glycosylated hemoglobin, reducing weight, improving blood lipid and other metabolic indicators, and is superior to the currently approved GLP-1 receptor agonist. Gastrointestinal reaction is the most common adverse event of the drug, which is generally mild to moderate, and decreases with continuous administration. On May 13, 2022, Tirzepatide was approved for listing by FDA, the current indication is to improve glycemic control of adult patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) as an adjunct of diet and exercise. In addition to T2D and obesity, there are also extensive and in-depth studies on other metabolic fields. This paper makes a systematic overview of this.
ABSTRACT
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) plays an important role in the development and occurrence of a variety of malignant tumors. Molecular targeted therapy for EGFR is in the ascendant. Molecular imaging can reveal the expression of EGFR and its mutations in vivo. The molecular probes labeled with 89Zr, 11C and 18F are used for imaging and the main research is about tyrosine kinase inhibitors labeled with 11C. PET is used to visualize EGFR expression and mutations in vivo, which can noninvasively screen patients suitable for targeting treatment and evaluate efficacy. This paper reviews the clinical researches and trials of these probes, and summarizes the clinical value of imaging methods, hoping to provide the evidence for clinical translation and application in the future.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the role of clinical pharmacists in the development of individualized drug treatment regimen for multiple myeloma patients with venous thromboembolism. Methods:One multiple myeloma patient suffering from venous thromboembo-lism after being treated with thalidomide combined with pegylated liposomal doxorubicinand dexamethasone was selected as the exam-ple. The cause and treatment of venous thromboembolism and the pharmaceutical service were analyzed. Results: With the help of clinical pharmacists, the patient conquered the chemotherapy-induced venous thromboembolism, and clinical pharmacists enhanced the awareness of pharmaceutical care and played a positive role in the safe and effective drug use. Conclusion: The optimization of drug therapy with the help of clinical pharmacists can improve clinical curative effect and safety of drug treatment.
