Article Abstract
Background: Real-world data of Palbociclib are insufficient in China. This study aimed to investigate the treatment pattern and real-world outcomes in hormone receptor positive and human epidermal growth factor 2 receptor negative (HR+/HER2-) metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients treated with Palbociclib in the northwest of China.
Methods: HR+/HER2- MBC patients who received Palbociclib in 8 centers from July 2017 to September 2019 were retrospectively included in this study. Real-world objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS) and safety profiles were analyzed. The survival curves were plotted by the Kaplan-Meier method to analyze PFS, which was verified by the log-rank test.
Results: In total, 211 women were eligible for the analysis. A total of 85 patients (40.3%), 78 (37.0%), and 48 (22.7%) received Palbociclib in the first-, second-, third- or later-line setting, respectively. 46 patients achieved partial response and 145 patients experienced stable disease, with an ORR of 21.8% and a disease control rate of 90.5%. Following a median follow-up period of 14.2 months, the median PFS was 12.2 months (95% confidence interval, 10.1-14.3 m), and the median overall survival was not reached. Early Palbociclib initiation, sensitivity or acquired resistance to endocrine therapy, estrogen receptor and progesterone receptor double positivity, less than 3 metastatic sites, without visceral metastasis, bone metastasis only, without prior chemotherapy or endocrine therapy were associated with a prolonged PFS in MBC (All P < 0.05). The most common grade 3 or 4 adverse events (AE) was neutropenia (36.5%), and the most common nonhematologic AE was fatigue (10.9%). No patient experienced AE leading to treatment discontinuation.
Conclusion: Palbociclib plus endocrine therapy exhibited favorable effectiveness and manageable toxicities in the real-world setting, supporting their use in Chinese patients with HR+/HER2 - MBC.

Introduction: Risperidone is approved for behaviors and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD), despite modest efficacy and known risks. Identifying responsive symptoms, treatment modifiers, and predictors is crucial for personalized treatment.
Method: A one-stage individual participant data meta-analysis of six randomized controlled trials (risperidone: n = 1009; placebo: N = 712) was conducted.

Cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic (CKM) syndrome is a term that is increasingly used to describe interconnected conditions that lead to poor health outcomes, including cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease, type 2 diabetes, and obesity. Historically, there have been very few targeted pharmacotherapies available that have changed cardiovascular outcomes for people with CKM syndromes; however, over the past decade, new pharmacologic options have rapidly expanded, with strong evidence for cardiovascular and kidney protective benefits in CKM conditions. Of note, sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists have emerged as key therapeutic options and are now widely guideline-endorsed.

Background: Antiretroviral therapy has extended the lifespan of HIV/ADIS. However, research and policies mainly target younger groups, leaving gaps in the care for aging people living with HIV (PLHIV).
Methods: Using data from the 2021 Global Burden of Disease Study, this research evaluated the global, regional, and national burdens of HIV/AIDS in adults aged 60 and above from 1990 to 2021.
Managing relapses during or after adjuvant CDK4/6 inhibitors in HR-positive/HER2-negative early breast cancer: an emerging challenge.

Cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i), such as abemaciclib and ribociclib, have recently been incorporated as adjuvant strategy in combination with endocrine therapy (ET) for patients with hormone receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative early breast cancer at higher risk of recurrence. However, despite a significant reduction in recurrence rates, a subset of patients still experiences distant metastatic spreading, with nearly 10% recurring during or shortly after adjuvant CDK4/6i completion, as observed in pivotal trials. To date, only one small retrospective study has described this emerging population while ongoing trials are not specifically addressing this scenario, leaving both the efficacy of postrelapse treatments and the biological background largely unknown.

The global incidence of early-onset cancer has surged by nearly 80% over the past three decades, yet the underlying causes remain poorly understood. While genetics and lifestyle are among the traditional risk factors, emerging evidence implicates the human microbiome as a potent and overlooked contributor to early tumorigenesis. Increases in the studies that are exploring the tissue-specific microbiome signatures such as the enrichment of Actinomyces and Bacteroidia in early-onset colorectal cancer, or Enterobacter and Neisseria in pancreatic tumors offer compelling evidence for age-stratified microbial contributions.
