Article Abstract

Aim: Androgen receptor signaling inhibitors (ARSI) demonstrated to be efficacious as first-line therapy for mCRPC. The present real-world study aimed to identify the characteristics of the long-term responders (LTR) patients to first-line ARSI.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed a consecutive series of 622 mCRPC patients treated with one ARSI as first line. Patients received standard doses of abiraterone (1000 mg daily plus prednisone 10 mg daily) or enzalutamide (160 mg daily) until progression. Patients with an ARSI exposure ≥ 36 months were considered as LTR.

Results: We identified 99 LTR patients who were compared to 523 no-LTR patients. At the multivariable analysis, LTR patients showed younger age ( < 0.0001), longer time to mCRPC ( < 0.0001), higher baseline levels of hemoglobin ( = 0.007), lower baseline PSA levels ( = 0.03), longer PSA doubling time ( = 0.03), low number of bone metastases ( = 0.01), and receivedenzalutamide ( = 0.01). The median overall survival (OS) of LTR was 78.2 months (95% CI 72.3-84.1 months) vs 27.7 months of no-LTR (95% CI 25.9-29.6 months).

Conclusions: Several clinical and biological factors allow to identify those patients with higher probability of becoming LTR to ARSI in first-line mCRPC setting.

Long-term retrieval performance is associated with CA1 hippocampal volume in older adults and individuals at risk for dementia.

Background: Long-term retrieval (LTR) and accelerated long-term forgetting (ALF) paradigms might help differentiating individuals at increased dementia risk from healthy controls (HC).

Objective: We investigated the utility of a LTR paradigm in discriminating subjective cognitive decline (SCD) from HC and its relationship to the CA1 body volume, a hippocampal structure pivotal to the memory circuitry.

Methods: LTR was assessed via recall rates of the ADAS-cog word list and the FCSRT-IR free recall in 59 DELCODE study participants, including individuals with SCD and mild cognitive impairment (MCI), as well as HC, all of them DELCODE study participants.

Background: The diagnosis of pulmonary antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) remains challenging with lack of specific defining features. This study evaluated the diagnostic and prognostic significance of intragraft anti human leukocyte antigen (HLA) donor-specific antibodies (gDSA) in pulmonary AMR.

Methods: This multicenter prospective study enrolled adult lung transplant recipients (LTR) with serum anti-HLA DSA (sDSA) >1,000 Luminex mean fluorescence intensity (MFI).

Background: Pre-transplant malignancy (PTM) is a relative contraindication for lung transplantation (LTx). The proportion of patients with PTM in LTx is increasing annually. We sought to identify modifiable risk factors affecting patient survival and evaluate the prognosis of different types of PTM.

A primary series of two mRNA-1273 COVID-19 vaccinations did not induce robust antibody and T cell responses in a large proportion of kidney (KTR) and lung (LTR) transplant recipients. Interestingly, some of these transplant recipients showed spike-specific T cell responses without detectable antibodies. In order to improve the immunogenicity of vaccines in this vulnerable population, this finding warrants in-depth investigation of the spike-specific CD4 T cell phenotype and functionality in these patients.

Introduction: Retrotransposons (REs) constitute nearly half of the genome and include long terminal repeat (LTR) elements, Long INterspersed Elements (LINE), and Short INterspersed Elements (SINE). REs are typically silenced in somatic tissues via DNA methylation but can be reactivated through DNA hypomethylation, potentially impacting gene regulation. Here, we investigate genome-scale profiles of RE methylation in high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) and associations with survival among Black women.
