Biological therapy for asthma targeting the IgE, IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, and TSLP pathways are shown to have benefit for the treatment of eosinophilic asthma, as exemplified in real world studies. When choosing the right biological agent factors such as phenotype, comorbidities, and cost-effectiveness of the biologic agent must be taken into consideration.

The costs of these new agents are much higher than oral therapy, which makes it important to only use them in a selected patient population.

Review, Journal, Metastases: Fruquintinib as new treatment option in metastatic colorectal cancer patients: is there an optimal sequence? (Pubmed Central) - Apr 28, 2024 Fruquintinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, has been shown to be effective in heavily pretreated mCRC progressing to trifluridine-tipiracil (FTD/TPI) or regorafenib or both...These results led to FDA approval of fruquintinib for pretreated mCRC patients who received prior fluoropyrimidine-, oxaliplatin-, and irinotecan-based chemotherapy...However, an optimal sequence of treatments is yet to be defined. In this review, we propose an algorithm for later lines of treatment to integrate fruquintinib as a standard of care together with the new therapeutic combinations that recently showed clinical benefit for chemorefractory mCRC, in both molecularly selected (e.g. KRASG12C or HER2 amplification) and in non-oncogenic driven patients.

(Pubmed Central) - Apr 28, 2024 We found that differences in the level of sponsor funding, patient inclusion criteria including radiation source and concomitant chemotherapy regimen, and concordance of primary efficacy outcomes between Phase II and Phase III trials influenced outcomes. To properly design clinical trials for OM in HNC patients, it is important that researchers and sponsors take note of specific study characteristics associated with success or failure, particularly with Phase III trials where the risks and costs are the highest.

While certain therapies hold promise for GBM, future research should prioritize personalized medicine and innovative strategies for improved treatment outcomes.

(Pubmed Central) - Apr 28, 2024 Therefore, it is necessary to identify clinical features of patients who can benefit from an upstream targeted therapy such as anti-thymic stromal lymphopoietin. The aims of this narrative review are to understand the role of alarmins in asthma pathogenesis and epithelial dysfunction, examine the rationale underlying the indication of TZP treatment in severe asthma, summarise the results of clinical studies, and recognise the specific characteristics of patients potentially eligible for TZP treatment.
