Others may act through activation of T-CELLS or by inhibiting the activation of HELPER CELLS. While immunosuppression has been brought about in the past primarily to prevent rejection of transplanted organs, new applications involving mediation of the effects of INTERLEUKINS and other CYTOKINES are emerging.
Immunotherapy
Manipulation of the host's immune system in treatment of disease. It includes both active and passive immunization as well as immunosuppressive therapy to prevent graft rejection.
Clinical Trials as Topic
Works about pre-planned studies of the safety, efficacy, or optimum dosage schedule (if appropriate) of one or more diagnostic, therapeutic, or prophylactic drugs, devices, or techniques selected according to predetermined criteria of eligibility and observed for predefined evidence of favorable and unfavorable effects. This concept includes clinical trials conducted both in the U.S. and in other countries.
Immunoconjugates
Combinations of diagnostic or therapeutic substances linked with specific immune substances such as IMMUNOGLOBULINS; MONOCLONAL ANTIBODIES; or ANTIGENS. Often the diagnostic or therapeutic substance is a radionuclide.

During these trials, patients are monitored closely by physicians to identify any adverse reactions from long-term use. These studies are performed on groups of patients large enough to identify clinically significant responses and usually last about three years. This concept includes phase III studies conducted in both the U.S. and in other countries.
Antineoplastic Combined Chemotherapy Protocols
The use of two or more chemicals simultaneously or sequentially in the drug therapy of neoplasms. The drugs need not be in the same dosage form.
Clinical Trials, Phase II as Topic
Works about studies that are usually controlled to assess the effectiveness and dosage (if appropriate) of diagnostic, therapeutic, or prophylactic drugs, devices, or techniques. These studies are performed on several hundred volunteers, including a limited number of patients with the target disease or disorder, and last about two years. This concept includes phase II studies conducted in both the U.S. and in other countries.
Nuclear Reprogramming
The process that reverts CELL NUCLEI of fully differentiated somatic cells to a pluripotent or totipotent state. This process can be achieved to a certain extent by NUCLEAR TRANSFER TECHNIQUES, such as fusing somatic cell nuclei with enucleated pluripotent embryonic stem cells or enucleated totipotent oocytes. GENE EXPRESSION PROFILING of the fused hybrid cells is used to determine the degree of reprogramming. Dramatic results of nuclear reprogramming include the generation of cloned mammals, such as Dolly the sheep in 1997.
Breast Neoplasms
Tumors or cancer of the human BREAST.
Antineoplastic Agents, Hormonal
Antineoplastic agents that are used to treat hormone-sensitive tumors. Hormone-sensitive tumors may be hormone-dependent, hormone-responsive, or both. A hormone-dependent tumor regresses on removal of the hormonal stimulus, by surgery or pharmacological block. Hormone-responsive tumors may regress when pharmacologic amounts of hormones are administered regardless of whether previous signs of hormone sensitivity were observed. The major hormone-responsive cancers include carcinomas of the breast, prostate, and endometrium; lymphomas; and certain leukemias. (From AMA Drug Evaluations Annual 1994, p2079)
Tamoxifen
One of the SELECTIVE ESTROGEN RECEPTOR MODULATORS with tissue-specific activities. Tamoxifen acts as an anti-estrogen (inhibiting agent) in the mammary tissue, but as an estrogen (stimulating agent) in cholesterol metabolism, bone density, and cell proliferation in the ENDOMETRIUM.
Oncogenes
Genes whose gain-of-function alterations lead to NEOPLASTIC CELL TRANSFORMATION. They include, for example, genes for activators or stimulators of CELL PROLIFERATION such as growth factors, growth factor receptors, protein kinases, signal transducers, nuclear phosphoproteins, and transcription factors. A prefix of "v-" before oncogene symbols indicates oncogenes captured and transmitted by RETROVIRUSES; the prefix "c-" before the gene symbol of an oncogene indicates it is the cellular homolog (PROTO-ONCOGENES) of a v-oncogene.
Breast
In humans, one of the paired regions in the anterior portion of the THORAX. The breasts consist of the MAMMARY GLANDS, the SKIN, the MUSCLES, the ADIPOSE TISSUE, and the CONNECTIVE TISSUES.

Blood Urea Nitrogen
The urea concentration of the blood stated in terms of nitrogen content. Serum (plasma) urea nitrogen is approximately 12% higher than blood urea nitrogen concentration because of the greater protein content of red blood cells. Increases in blood or serum urea nitrogen are referred to as azotemia and may have prerenal, renal, or postrenal causes. (From Saunders Dictionary & Encyclopedia of Laboratory Medicine and Technology, 1984)
Platelet Count
The number of PLATELETS per unit volume in a sample of venous BLOOD.

A specialty field of radiology concerned with diagnostic, therapeutic, and investigative use of radioactive compounds in a pharmaceutical form.
Carcinoma, Lobular
A infiltrating (invasive) breast cancer, relatively uncommon, accounting for only 5%-10% of breast tumors in most series. It is often an area of ill-defined thickening in the breast, in contrast to the dominant lump characteristic of ductal carcinoma. It is typically composed of small cells in a linear arrangement with a tendency to grow around ducts and lobules. There is likelihood of axillary nodal involvement with metastasis to meningeal and serosal surfaces. (DeVita Jr et al., Cancer: Principles & Practice of Oncology, 3d ed, p1205)

New treatment strategies for malignant gliomas. (1/231)

Although survival in patients with malignant gliomas remains limited, there is renewed optimism with the emergence of novel treatment strategies. Cytotoxic agents such as temozolomide and CPT-11 have shown promising clinical activity. Biological treatments for brain tumors, including antisense oligonucleotides, gene therapy, and angiogenesis inhibitors, are also being evaluated in clinical trials. Delivery strategies have been developed to overcome challenges presented by the blood-brain barrier. These noteworthy treatments, alone or in combination, may ultimately prolong survival and enhance quality of life in this group of patients.  (+info)

Engineered herpes simplex virus expressing IL-12 in the treatment of experimental murine brain tumors. (2/231)

Genetically engineered, neuroattenuated herpes simplex viruses (HSVs) expressing various cytokines can improve survival when used in the treatment of experimental brain tumors. These attenuated viruses have both copies of gamma(1)34.5 deleted. Recently, we demonstrated increased survival of C57BL/6 mice bearing syngeneic GL-261 gliomas when treated with an engineered HSV expressing IL-4, as compared with treatment with the parent construct (gamma(1)34. 5(-)) alone or with a virus expressing IL-10. Herein, we report construction of a conditionally replication-competent mutant expressing both subunits of mIL-12 (M002) and its evaluation in a syngeneic neuroblastoma murine model. IL-12 induces a helper T cell subset type 1 response, which may induce more durable antitumor effects. In vitro studies showed that, when infected with M002, both Vero cells and murine Neuro-2a neuroblastoma cells produced physiologically relevant levels of IL-12 heterodimers, as determined by ELISA. M002 was cytotoxic for Neuro-2a cells and human glioma cell lines U251MG and D54MG. Neurotoxicity studies, as defined by plaque-forming units/LD(50), performed in HSV-1-sensitive A/J strain mice found that M002 was not toxic even at high doses. When evaluated in an intracranial syngeneic neuroblastoma murine model, median survival of M002-treated animals was significantly longer than the median survival of animals treated with R3659, the parent gamma(1)34.5(-) mutant lacking any cytokine gene insert. Immunohistochemical analysis of M002-treated tumors identified a pronounced influx of CD4(+) T cells and macrophages as well as CD8(+) cells when compared with an analysis of R3659-treated tumors. We conclude that M002 produced a survival benefit via oncolytic effects combined with immunologic effects meditated by helper T cells of subset type 1.  (+info)

Where is biological therapy going? (3/231)

The substantial progress in our understanding of molecular and cellular biology has allowed us to design biological therapeutics ('biologicals') with defined targets and effector functions. These biologicals have greatly contributed to our current knowledge of pathogenetic mechanisms in autoimmune diseases. However, although some of the biologicals have been extremely successful in treating the symptoms of chronic inflammation, biological therapy has not yet met the expectations of permanently silencing the chronic immune response. In this commentary we discuss current concepts and future directions of biological therapy, and the potential usefulness of biologicals as a treatment of human autoimmune diseases in appropriate critical applications with the use of suitably designed agents.  (+info)

Probiotic agents and infectious diseases: a modern perspective on a traditional therapy. (4/231)

There is an increasing scientific and commercial interest in the use of beneficial microorganisms, or "probiotics," for the prevention and treatment of disease. The microorganisms most frequently used as probiotic agents are lactic-acid bacteria such as Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG), which has been extensively studied in recent literature. Multiple mechanisms of action have been postulated, including lactose digestion, production of antimicrobial agents, competition for space or nutrients, and immunomodulation. We have reviewed recent studies of probiotics for the treatment and control of infectious diseases. Studies of pediatric diarrhea show substantial evidence of clinical benefits from probiotic therapy in patients with viral gastroenteritis, and data on LGG treatment for Clostridium difficile diarrhea appear promising. However, data to support use of probiotics for prevention of traveler's diarrhea are more limited. New research suggests potential applications in vaccine development and prevention of sexually transmitted diseases. Further studies are needed to take full advantage of this traditional medical approach and to apply it to the infectious diseases of the new millennium.  (+info)

Update on the treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus: therapeutic highlights from the Sixth International Lupus Conference. (5/231)

The studies presented at the conference indicate that new therapeutic agents are effective for patients with SLE. Some of the agents (high dose cyclophosphamide) may be given to patients with refractory disease while others (low dose cyclophosphamide, and MMF) may be used as a first-line drug. The current data on biologic agents are still preliminary and their exact role in SLE needs to be determined.  (+info)

The novel and effective nonplatinum, nontaxane combination of gemcitabine and vinorelbine in advanced nonsmall cell lung carcinoma: potential for decreased toxicity and combination with biological therapy. (6/231)

BACKGROUND: Gemcitabine and vinorelbine are two of the most active third-generation agents for the treatment of advanced nonsmall cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). The authors conducted a formal Phase II trial to evaluate the efficacy of this combination in both untreated and previously treated patients with Stage IIIB (with pleural effusion) or Stage IV NSCLC. METHODS: A total of 78 patients were treated on the current Phase II trial of front-line or second/third-line therapy with gemcitabine and vinorelbine in NSCLC. Eligible patients manifested either untreated disease (n = 42) or had received at least one but not more than two prior chemotherapy regimens (n = 36). The median age was 57.5 years (range, 33-79) with 57 men (73%) and 21 women (27%). The median performance status was one (range, one to two). The initial eight patients (four untreated and four previously treated) were treated at a previously established maximum tolerated dose of vinorelbine (30 mg/m(2)) and gemcitabine (1000 mg/m(2)) on Days 1, 8, and 15, with significant myelosuppression seen in five out of eight patients requiring dose omission in the first cycle. The next 70 patients received a reduced dose of vinorelbine (25 mg/m(2)) followed by gemcitabine (900 mg/m(2)) on Days 1, 8, and 15. RESULTS: Seventy eight patients were treated. Fifteen (36%) of the 42 evaluable patients who received front-line therapy had objective responses and 14 (33%) had stable disease. In the patients with prior treatment, 6 (17%) of 36 patients had partial response and 18 patients (50%) had stable disease. Median survival time for the previously untreated patient group was 10.1 months, with a one year survival of 43% and a two year survival rate of 32%. For the previously treated patients, the median survival time was 8.5 months, with a one year survival rate of 30%. Toxic effects were notable for significant myelosuppression, with > or =Grade 3 granulocytopenia seen in 55% of the patients on the untreated arm and 67% of the patients on the previously treated arm. Additionally, 9.5% and 13.9% (untreated and previously treated), respectively, of these patients experienced Grades 3 and 4 thrombocytopenia at some point in their treatment. A full dose delivery analysis showed that this myelosuppression resulted in Course 1, Day 15 skipped doses (even at the reduced dose level) in 42% of previously untreated patients and 47% of pretreated patients. Other side effects seen at Grades 3 and 4 in previously untreated and treated patients included anemia (9.5% and 2.8%), asthenia (4.8% and 5.5%), infection (14.3% and 5.6%), pain (9.5% and 19.4%), and pulmonary complications (4.8% and 13.8%). CONCLUSIONS: Gemcitabine/vinorelbine is an active, well-tolerated combination in both front-line and second/third-line therapy for Stage IIIB/IV NSCLC. The response rate, median survival rate, and one year survival rate compare favorably with platinum-based regimens. The toxicity profile of the gemcitabine/vinorelbine combination was quite favorable, with minimal Grade 3 and 4 toxic effects aside from granulocytopenia, which resulted in numerous Day 15 skipped doses but no significant febrile neutropenia or infection. The combination of gemcitabine and vinorelbine could be a useful regimen in standard clinical practice and has the potential for efficient combination with biologic/targeted therapy. Multiple randomized trials of this combination versus platinum combinations are now ongoing [corrected].  (+info)

Yoghurt biotherapy: contraindicated in immunosuppressed patients? (7/231)

A fatal case of Lactobacillus rhamnosus septicaemia after prolonged oral vancomycin for recalcitrant Clostridium difficile infection is reported. The patient was immunosuppressed with cyclophosphamide and steroids for Sjogren's syndrome. The administration of Lactobacillus spp as "biotherapy" may be hazardous in such circumstances.  (+info)

Oncolytic measles viruses displaying a single-chain antibody against CD38, a myeloma cell marker. (8/231)

Live attenuated measles virus (MV-Edm) has potent oncolytic activity against myeloma xenografts in mice. Therapy of multiple myeloma, a disseminated plasma cell malignancy, would require systemic administration of the virus. Thus, the virus should ideally be targeted to infect only myeloma cells to minimize collateral damage to normal tissues: viral binding to its natural receptors must be ablated and a new specificity domain that targets entry into myeloma cells be added. This study covers 2 critical steps toward generating such a retargeted virus: (1) a new specificity domain against the plasma cell marker CD38 was constructed in the form of a single-chain antibody (scFv) and (2) display of that scFv on the measles viral envelope glycoprotein successfully redirected virus entry through CD38 expressed on target cells devoid of the natural MV receptors. The anti-CD38 scFv was tethered to the C-terminus of the hemagglutinin (H) glycoprotein of MV-Edm through a Factor Xa protease cleavable linker. Immunoblot analysis demonstrated that the scFv was efficiently incorporated into recombinant viral particles. Replication of MV-alpha CD38 was not hindered by the scFv, reaching titers comparable to MV-Edm. Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells were resistant to infection by MV-Edm and MV-alpha CD38. In contrast, CHO cells expressing CD38 became susceptible to infection by MV-alpha CD38 but not MV-Edm. Removal of the displayed scFv rendered MV-alpha CD38 noninfectious on CHO-CD38 cells. Tumorigenicity of CHO-CD38 cells in immunocompromised mice was significantly attenuated by MV-alpha CD38, resulting in enhanced survival of these mice compared with the control group.  (+info)

Fecal Microbiota Transplantation for Ulcerative Colitis - Naturopathic Doctor News and ReviewFecal Microbiota Transplantation for Ulcerative Colitis - Naturopathic Doctor News and Review
Mark Davis, ND. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is also known as human probiotic infusion, fecal transplant, fecal bacteriotherapy, fecal slurry, and gut flora rehabilitation and has been humorously referred to as transpoosion. The procedure consists of collecting stool from a healthy donor; suspending it in water, normal saline, or 4% milk; and administering it to the patient (most frequently via enema but also via colonoscope, nasogastric or nasoduodenal tube, rectal tube, or even [anecdotally] orally as a milkshake1). This massive infusion of healthy colonic bacteria has been used as far back as the 17th century in veterinary medicine to treat digestive disturbances2 and as early as 1958 in humans to treat pseudomembranous colitis.3. Fecal microbiota transplantation has a 90% success rate in curing Clostridium difficile-associated chronic diarrhea, colitis, and pseudomembranous colitis,4 which affect half a million and kill 15 000 to 20 000 Americans per year.5 Fecal microbiota ...

TY - JOUR. T1 - Fecal microbiota transplantation for recurrent Clostridium difficile infection. AU - Brandt, Lawrence J.. AU - Reddy, Sheela S.. PY - 2011/11. Y1 - 2011/11. N2 - With the increasing prevalence of recurrent/refractory Clostridium difficile infection (CDI), alternative treatments to the standard antibiotic therapies are being sought. One of the more controversial of such alternative treatments is fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT). Although the notion of FMT is foreign - even startling - and not esthetic to most people, the concept has been around for many decades. Its benefit and efficacy dates back ,50 years to its use for staphylococcal pseudomembranous colitis, and now FMT is showing a great promise as an inexpensive, safe, and highly efficient treatment for recurrent and refractory CDI. Moreover, with a better understanding of the intricacies of the colonic microbiome and its role in colonic pathophysiology, FMT has the potential to become the standard of care for CDI ...

The investigators propose to use autologous fecal microbiota transplantation (AFMT) to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients treated with intensive chemotherapy and antibiotics in order to restore the balance of their intestinal microbiome and thereby eradicate treatment-induced multidrug resistant bacteria (MDRB), infection-related complications, as well as sequelae to the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, the investigators propose to perform a single-arm multicentre prospective fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) trial in AML patients receiving intensive chemotherapy, and who are usually heavily treated with broad-spectrum antibiotics during aplasia that generate a profound status of dysbiosis. For this purpose, at the time of admission and AML diagnosis, patients will be requested to donate stools that will be comprehensively screened, and if deemed appropriate according to protocol criteria, conditioned and stored frozen until future processing and transplantation after aplasia completion ...

NIAID-supported researchers have shown that autologous fecal microbiota transplantation (auto-FMT) is a safe, effective way to replenish beneficial gut bacteria in cancer patients requiring intense antibiotics during allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Auto-FMT resulted in the recovery of beneficial gut bacteria to near baseline levels within days, restoring digestive, immune and other functions. With standard care, beneficial bacteria typically take weeks to recover from antibiotic treatment, leaving patients at risk of other infectious diseases.

Biological therapy for cancer - Tests & ProceduresBiological therapy for cancer - Tests & Procedures
Biological therapy is a treatment that uses your bodys immune system to fight cancer cells rather than attacking those cells directly. For carefully selected people, biological therapy may target cancer cells to avoid damage to normal cells, prevent or slow tumor growth, and prevent the spread of cancer cells. Although it can have side effects, typically this type of therapy is less invasive and less toxic than conventional cancer treatments are. Biological therapy for cancer includes immunotherapy, targeted therapy and therapy that inhibits the growth of blood vessels (anti-angiogenesis).

An evaluation of the therapeutic potential of fecal microbiota transplantation to treat infectious and metabolic diseases |...An evaluation of the therapeutic potential of fecal microbiota transplantation to treat infectious and metabolic diseases |...
FMT as a treatment modality has also been tested in a range of other diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), irritable bowel syndrome, obesity and metabolic syndrome, as well as neurological and psychological disorders, although most reports of the latter category are merely anecdotal. Yet, the results so far are not convincing. Reports about using FMT to treat IBD patients show considerable heterogeneity in terms of clinical effect (Moayyedi et al, 2015), whereas efficacy in patients with metabolic syndrome was transient. Insulin resistance improved 6 weeks after the FMT, but at 12 weeks, no significant effect was observed anymore on metabolic parameters and fecal microbiota composition (Vrieze et al, 2012).. The reason why FMT has such variable efficacy is probably due to the stability and resilience of the gut microbiota. CDI patients who have been treated multiple times with antibiotics have most of their bacterial diversity wiped out; FMT effectively repopulates this vacated ...

Fecal microbiota transplantation is reportedly the most effective therapy for relapsing Clostridium Difficile infection and a potential therapeutic option for many diseases. It also poses important ethical concerns. This study is an attempt to assess clinicians perception and attitudes towards ethical and social challenges raised by fecal microbiota transplantation. A questionnaire was developed which consisted of 20 items: four items covered general aspects, nine were about ethical aspects such as informed consent and privacy issues, four concerned social and regulatory issues, (...) and three were about an FMT bank. This was distributed to participants at the Second China gastroenterology and FMT conference in May 2015. Basic descriptive statistical analyses and simple comparative statistical tests were performed. Nearly three quarters of the 100 respondents were gastro-enterologist physicians. 89% of all respondents believed FMT is a promising treatment modality for some diseases and 88% of ...

Treating Feline Inflammatory Bowel Disease With Fecal Microbiota Transplantation - PoCTreating Feline Inflammatory Bowel Disease With Fecal Microbiota Transplantation - PoC
The high concentration of bacteria may be due to the fact that cats are, as you know, obligate carnivores. They have to eat the flesh of prey. The short intestinal tract of the cat would also seem to make it more important to have more bacteria in the gut. As consequence, some scientists think that if a cat is fed a high-protein, low carbohydrate diet matching the diet of the wild cat they are less likely to develop IBD.. The fact of the matter is that if scientists believe that bacteria in the gut plays a role in IBD then I would suggest that FMT is an ideal candidate has a form of treatment for this illness because FMT would replace, wholesale, the bad bacteria in the intestinal tract of the cat with the faecal bacteria of a healthy cat.. As for humans, FMT as a treatment for the management of IBD has been proved successful in studies. The success rate was high. In the 17 patients in whom it was reported, 13/17 ceased IBD medications within 6 weeks. All experienced symptom reduction or ...

Introduction. There is a growing body of evidence highlighting the possible interactions between the microbiota and cancer. However, little is known about the consequence on the microbiota of the intensive chemotherapy in patients with AML. Indeed, intensive treatments of AML are known to negatively impact gut microbiota composition; it is measured by a deep shutdown of diversity indices (eg. Simpson), also called dysbiosis. Decrease in microbiota diversity may impact the immune system and may have consequences on the outcome of AML patients. Therefore, development of strategies to manipulate the gut microbiota may minimize treatment-related complications and potentially improve outcomes. With this background, we developed a single arm prospective phase I/II multicenter trial (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02928523) aiming to evaluate use of auto-FMT in AML patients treated with intensive chemotherapy and antibiotics. Patients and methods. For this purpose, at the time of admission and AML ...

A 32-year-old Chinese man developed severe enterocolonic CD where he was hospitalized in 2012 for progressive abdominal pain, bloody and purulent diarrhea and high fever of 38 °C-39.5 °C. He was diagnosed in 2010 and managed his disease through daily intravenous medicines. A CT Scan showed an abdominal mass of size 14 cm × 8 cm × 10 cm. His sigmoid colon was severely inflamed and he was given intravenous antiobiotics for 10 days but frequently experienced fever and abdominal pain; plus, the abdominal mass size was unchanged. After the patient expressed interest in a clinical trial, various tests were conducted and the donor found was his 10-year-old, healthy daughter. A week after FMT, his previous symptoms were dramatically alleviated and the size of inflamed mass was reduced. Additionally, the CDAI score was reduced to 228.

NewYork-Presbyterian Queens - Cancer Treatment - Biological Therapy For Cancer TreatmentNewYork-Presbyterian Queens - Cancer Treatment - Biological Therapy For Cancer Treatment
Biological therapy (also called immunotherapy, biological response modifier therapy, or biotherapy) uses the bodys immune system to fight cancer. The cells, antibodies, and organs of the immune system work to protect and defend the body against foreign invaders, such as bacteria or viruses. Doctors and researchers have found that the immune system might also be able to both determine the difference between healthy cells and cancer cells in the body, and to eliminate the cancer cells. (By itself, the immune system is not always good at destroying cancer cells; if it were, people would not get cancer.). Biological therapies are designed to boost the immune system, either directly or indirectly, by assisting in the following:. ...

Kaltsonoudis et al.9 conducted a prospective study in 77 patients with inflammatory rheumatic disease (36 patients with rheumatoid arthritis, 24 patients with psoriatic arthritis and 17 patients with ankylosing spondylitis) who began with anti-TNFα (infliximab, adalimumab, etanercept). All underwent a complete neurological examination, nuclear magnetic resonance of the brain and the entire spine, and a neurophysiology study before and more than 18 months after starting the biological therapy. In the initial scrutiny, they detected lesions compatible with demyelinating disease in magnetic resonance in 2 patients and, thus, decided against the biological treatment. At the end of the study, 4% of the patients (3/75) showed evidence of neurological involvement: peripheral demyelinating neuropathy (2 patients) and optic neuritis. In each case, the biological therapy was interrupted and the neurological disease was treated. The neurological symptoms remitted in all the patients.9 The authors stress ...

Patients with inflammatory bowel disease who required abdominal surgery while on biologics did not have more postoperative complications than those whose biologic regimens were interrupted.13-15. The first study of patients with psoriasis or psoriatic arthritis on biologics enrolled 42 patients undergoing 77 different procedures.16 While patients who continued biologic therapy did not have higher rates of postoperative complications, those who did interrupt treatment found their underlying disease worsened. Most rheumatology associations recommend interrupting biologic therapy for at least 4 half-lives before scheduled major surgery; that criterion would involve going 4 to 6 weeks without infliximab, 6 to 8 weeks off adalimumab, 2 to 3 weeks off etanercept, and 12 to 25 weeks off ustekinumab before operations.17-19 The evidence supporting that recommendation, however, is weak; in fact, it is supported only by expert opinion..

Frontiers | Biological Therapies of Severe Asthma and Their Possible Effects on Airway Remodeling | ImmunologyFrontiers | Biological Therapies of Severe Asthma and Their Possible Effects on Airway Remodeling | Immunology
Asthma is a chronic and heterogenic respiratory tract disorder with a high global prevalence. The underlying chronic inflammatory process and airway remodeling (AR) contribute to the symptomatology of the disease. The most severely ill asthma patients may now be treated using a variety of monoclonal antibodies aiming key inflammatory cytokines involved in asthma pathogenesis. Although clinical data shows much beneficial effects of biological therapies in terms of reduction of exacerbation rates, improvement of lung functions, asthma control and patients quality of life, little is known on the effects of these monoclonal antibodies on AR-a key clinical trait of long-term asthma management. In this review, the authors summarize the data on the proven effects of monoclonal antibodies in asthma on AR. To date, in terms of reversing AR, the mostly studied was omalizumab. However, some studies also addressed this clinical issue in context of other severe asthma biological therapies (mepolizumab, benralizumab

Phage therapy - WikipediaPhage therapy - Wikipedia
Phage therapy or viral phage therapy is the therapeutic use of bacteriophages to treat pathogenic bacterial infections. Phage therapy has many potential applications in human medicine as well as dentistry, veterinary science, and agriculture. If the target host of a phage therapy treatment is not an animal, the term biocontrol (as in phage-mediated biocontrol of bacteria) is usually employed, rather than phage therapy. Bacteriophages are much more specific than antibiotics. They are typically harmless not only to the host organism, but also to other beneficial bacteria, such as the gut flora, reducing the chances of opportunistic infections. They have a high therapeutic index, that is, phage therapy would be expected to give rise to few side effects. Because phages replicate in vivo, a smaller effective dose can be used. On the other hand, this specificity is also a disadvantage: a phage will only kill a bacterium if it is a match to the specific strain. Consequently, phage mixtures are ...

The scientific literature shows a renewed interest in phage therapy. Part of this interest stems from a series of spectacular experiments conducted with phage lysins (31, 37, 44), another part comes from a number of recent animal experiments with viable phage particles as antibacterial agents (8, 11, 14, 28, 30, 32, 49, 54), and a further part derives from historical reviews of the Soviet experience with phage therapy (4, 10, 12, 18, 48, 49, 50). It is currently difficult to critically assess the potential of the clinical trials conducted in the former Soviet Union. The trials were mainly published in Russian, most of the trials were uncontrolled, and the therapeutic phages were not described in published reports. With the present study, we wanted to address some of the basic preclinical problems of phage therapy in the context of E. coli diarrhea. We have chosen this example because a substantial body of knowledge has been accumulated on E. coli and its phages; the pathogenic target bacteria ...

Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has had a long history in medicine for treating a number of human diseases. As early as during the 4th century BC, FMT was used in China to treat patients with food poisoning and diarrhea. Over time, the method became obsolete, particularly after the realization that hygiene plays an important role in preventing infectious diseases. It was not until the late 1950s that FMT garnered interest again when the first reports about its use to treat fulminant enterocolitis appeared in the scientific literature. However, FMTs breakthrough as the method of choice for the treatment of persistent Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) came only after a double‐blind randomized trial (van Nood et al, 2013), which demonstrated 94% efficacy of FMT compared with 31% after conservative treatment with vancomycin. ...

The interactions between the composition of the microbiota and gut motility are bidirectional, which indicates that the microbiota play an important role in gut motor function and the gut motor function affects the diversity of microflora in the gastrointestinal tract [6]. Here, we found that the depletion of microbiota by antibiotics treatments was associated with gut motility, and its relationship might be related to 5-HT biosynthesis in the colon. And we also found that metabolism of bile acids was affected in antibiotic-treated mice, and the secondary bile acids was decreased in our study which has been demonstrated to be associated with 5-HT metabolism and gastrointestinal motility [13].. Several studies have focus on the interaction between the normal gut microbiota and gut motility. The dysfunction of gut motility has been considered to be one of the main pathophysiology in STC [31]. Recent years, fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has become a new therapy for functional ...

Abstract. Background. Within seven days following peroral high dose infection with Toxoplasma gondii susceptible conventionally colonized mice develop acute ileitis due to an underlying T helper cell (Th) -1 type immunopathology. We here addressed whether mice harboring a human intestinal microbiota developed intestinal, extra-intestinal and systemic sequelae upon ileitis induction.. Methodology/Principal findings. Secondary abiotic mice were generated by broad-spectrum antibiotic treatment and associated with a complex human intestinal microbiota following peroral fecal microbiota transplantation. Within three weeks the human microbiota had stably established in the murine intestinal tract as assessed by quantitative cultural and culture-independent (i.e. molecular 16S rRNA based) methods. At day 7 post infection (p.i.) with 50 cysts of T. gondii strain ME49 by gavage human microbiota associated (hma) mice displayed severe clinical, macroscopic and microscopic sequelae indicating acute ileitis. ...

The introduction of biologic therapies, which selectively target components of the immune system, has revolutionized the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. Anti-TNF-alpha therapy (infliximab, etanercept and adalimumab) and B-cell-depleting agents, such as rituximab, are the most widely used agents. Increased experience of the use of biologic drugs in other immune-mediated inflammatory diseases has led to the application of biologic therapies in the treatment of primary systemic vasculitis. Conversely, the success of biological agents has improved understanding of the immunopathogenesis of vascular inflammation. The need for biologic agents arises from the failure of the current standard of care to maintain remission while limiting drug toxicity. Evidence for the efficacy of biologic agents does not match that of conventional immunosuppressants yet, but it is building rapidly. This paper reviews the current evidence for the standard of care of patients with vasculitis and the role of biologic therapy in

BACKGROUND: Axial spondyloarthropathy typically has its onset in early adulthood and can impact significantly on quality of life. In the UK, biologic anti-tumour necrosis factor therapy is recommended for patients who are unresponsive to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. There remain several unresolved issues about the long-term safety and quality of life outcomes of biologic treatment in axial spondyloarthropathy. Long-term real-world surveillance data are required to complement data from randomised controlled trials. METHODS/DESIGN: We are conducting a UK-wide prospective cohort study of patients with axial spondyloarthropathy who are naïve to biologic therapy at the time of recruitment. Those about to commence anti-tumour necrosis factor biologic therapy will enter a biologic sub-cohort with other patients assigned to a non-biologic sub-cohort. The primary objective is to determine whether the use of biologic therapy is associated with an increased risk of serious infection, while ...

The first therapeutic usage of phage was in 1919, to treat a child with severe dysentery. In a classic case of old-school science, the lead researchers (which included dHerelle) drank portions of the bacteriophage preparation the day before treating the child, to check the treatments safety in humans. The researchers didnt keel over, the child fully recovered within a few days, and further tests on other patients confirmed the result. In the 1930s and 1940s, bacteriophage preparations were developed and sold by major companies such as LOréal and the Eli Lilly Company. The development and mass production of antibiotics in the late 1940s halted research into phage therapy in the West, due to the efficacy of antibiotics. Research continued in the Soviet Union. Hundreds of studies were made on phage therapy, with the the largest carried out in Tbilisi in 1963-64, involving 30,000 children [1]. This study focused on the use of phage as a weekly-administered prophylactic against Shigella. The ...

Using an experimental treatment that involves the use of bacteriophages, or viruses that target bacteria specifically, the team has successfully treated Tom Patterson, PhD, a psychiatric professor at the UCSD School of Medicine.. In 2015, Patterson contracted what appeared at the time to be pancreatitis, but it was soon discovered by a team of specialist doctors in Frankfurt, Germany, that Patterson had contracted an extremely rare, dangerous, virulent, and antimicrobial-resistant strain of the Acinetobacter baumannii pathogen.. After attempting to treat Pattersons condition with an increasingly dangerous cocktail of potent and hazardous antibiotics, Pattersons health began to fail rapidly, at which point he was airlifted to Thornton Hospital, at UCSD. With doctors unable to stop the spread of Acinetobacter baumannii superbug, Patterson was eventually placed into a medical coma in January 2016.. In March of the same year, a research team began treating Patterson with a unique phage therapy ...

Anti-TNF biologic agents: still the therapy of choice for rheumatoid arthritis. - The Kennedy Institute of RheumatologyAnti-TNF biologic agents: still the therapy of choice for rheumatoid arthritis. - The Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology
Cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF) are expressed at high levels in rheumatoid joint tissue, where they contribute significantly to inflammation and articular destruction. TNF was the first cytokine to be fully validated as a therapeutic target for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In nearly a decade since anti-TNF agents-such as infliximab, etanercept and adalimumab-were launched as the first biologic therapies to be licensed for RA, much has been learnt about how and when in the disease course this class of drug can be used to achieve optimal therapeutic benefit. Other cytokine targets, such as interleukin (IL)-6 or IL-1, have also been validated and several are in the process of being tested. However, TNF is likely to remain the preferred target of first-line biologic therapy for the foreseeable future as, in populations with active RA despite ongoing, nonbiologic, DMARD therapy, biologic inhibition of either IL-6 or IL-1 demonstrates no obviously superior outcomes to TNF blockade. Furthermore,

Most authorities recommend starting biological agents upon failure of at least one disease-modifying agent in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. However, owing to the absence of head-to-head studies, there is little guidance about which biological to select. Still, the practicing clinician has to decide. This review explores the application of published evidence to practice, discussing the goals of treatment, the (in) ability to predict individual responses to therapy, and the potential value of indirect comparisons. We suggest that cycling of biological agents, until remission is achieved or until the most effective agent for that individual patient is determined, deserves consideration in the current stage of knowledge.

Objective: To survey the current status and problems of cooperation between clinics and hospitals in Okayama Prefecture, Japan for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods: We distributed a questionnaire to 300 of the 983 Okayama Prefecture clinics that had either an internal medicine or orthopedic surgery department, from December 2013 to February 2014. The questionnaire covered practice pattern for RA treatment in clinics, current status of the hospital and clinic cooperation, and acceptance of the biologic therapy. Results: One hundred clinics responded to the questionnaire. Seventy percent of the clinics reported making referrals to rheumatologists before the initiation of RA treatment, and half of the other 30% of the clinics administered methotrexate as the first-line treatment for RA by their own decision. Sixty-six clinics cooperated with flagship hospitals, conducting medical and laboratory examinations, providing prescriptions, and treating common diseases of patients. These ...

Objectives: A cohort of routine care RA patients in sustained remission had biological DMARD (bDMARDs) tapered according to a treatment guideline. We studied: the proportion of patients whose bDMARD could be successfully tapered or discontinued; unwanted consequences of tapering/discontinuation; and potential baseline predictors of successful tapering and discontinuation.. Methods: One-hundred-and-forty-three patients (91% receiving TNF inhibitor and 9% a non-TNF inhibitor) with sustained disease activity score (DAS28-CRP)⩽2.6 and no radiographic progression the previous year were included. bDMARD was reduced to two-thirds of standard dose at baseline, half after 16 weeks, and discontinued after 32 weeks. Patients who flared (defined as either DAS28-CRP ⩾ 2.6 and ΔDAS28-CRP ⩾ 1.2 from baseline, or erosive progression on X-ray and/or MRI) stopped tapering and were escalated to the previous dose level.. Results: One-hundred-and-forty-one patients completed 2-year follow-up. At 2 years, 87 ...

Penile Cancer Treatment (PDQ )Penile Cancer Treatment (PDQ )
The way the radiation therapy is given depends on the type and stage of the cancer being treated. External and internal radiation therapy are used to treat penile cancer.. Chemotherapy. Chemotherapy is a cancer treatment that uses drugs to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. When chemotherapy is taken by mouth or injected into a vein or muscle, the drugs enter the bloodstream and can reach cancer cells throughout the body (systemic chemotherapy). When chemotherapy is placed directly onto the skin (topical chemotherapy) or into the cerebrospinal fluid, an organ, or a body cavity such as the abdomen, the drugs mainly affect cancer cells in those areas (regional chemotherapy). The way the chemotherapy is given depends on the type and stage of the cancer being treated.. Topical chemotherapy may be used to treat stage 0 penile cancer..

This partially randomized phase III clinical trial is studying different combinations of risk-adapted chemotherapy regimens and their side effects and comparing how well they work in treating younger patients with newly diagnosed standard-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy), giving the drugs in different doses, and giving the drugs in different combinations may kill more cancer cells. ...

Biomarkers in the context of managing severe asthma: Ingenta ConnectBiomarkers in the context of managing severe asthma: Ingenta Connect
Only recently have asthma strategies addressed biomarkers in asthma management, for example, as applied in the identification of severe asthmatics likely to respond to biologic therapy. Three biomarkers are readily available for clinical application in managing severe asthma including blood eosinophils, exhaled nitric oxide and serum IgE. While we have a limited number of biomarkers for clinical application, the available biomarkers have ushered in the era of personalized medicine for asthma. These three biomarkers are readily available for application in the clinic setting to select medications and to monitor response to treatment as well as medication adherence. These biomarkers can be used to modify the cost of uncontrolled asthma and also used to select those patients likely to respond to the available biologic therapies for severe asthma ...
