    Photoimmunotherapy in nasopharyngeal carcinoma recurrence. (Hall A; Poster Bd #: 384) -  Apr 24, 2024 - Abstract #ASCO2024ASCO_3519;    
    This innovative therapeutic approach holds significant potential for addressing nasopharyngeal cancer recurrence. However, it is crucial to carefully evaluate patients who can safely be treated using this method.

    Journal:  Sex, science and curated community at the World League for Sexual Reform 1929 conference. (Pubmed Central) -  Dec 17, 2023   
    This central debate, about how best to define the contested concept of sexology, continues among historians today. By examining how the 1929 conference organizers wrestled to define their sex-reforming remit and how they curated the conference to that end, this paper will offer a window onto the mechanisms via which adherents of intellectual communities contend with heterogeneity, how we judge forms of knowledge and, ultimately, what constitutes science.

    Review, Journal:  Review of RM-1929 Near-Infrared Photoimmunotherapy Clinical Efficacy for Unresectable and/or Recurrent Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma. (Pubmed Central) -  Nov 14, 2023   
    Low-grade postoperative localized pain and edema were the most frequently reported side effects, and preliminary reports on quality of life and pain levels suggest that RM-1929 NIR-PIT does not significantly decrease quality of life and is manageable with existing pain management strategies, including opioids. These preliminary data in real-world use of RM-1929 NIR-PIT show that it is a well-tolerated therapy that has clinically meaningful outcomes for patients with unresectable and/or recurrent HNSCC.

    Enrollment closed, Enrollment change:  ASP-1929 Photoimmunotherapy Combined With Pembrolizumab in Patients With Recurrent Head and Neck Cancer, With or Without Metastases (clinicaltrials.gov) -  Apr 26, 2023   
    P2,  N=16, Active, not recruiting, 
    Similar to previous work analyzing predictive peripheral biomarkers for immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy (ICI), our results describe a patient population with higher baseline CD8+PD1+ T cells and lower overall CD8+ T cells at screening may respond better to ICI combined with photoimmunotherapy.

    As experience with NIR-PIT grows, additional antibodies will be employed to target additional antigens on other cancers or to target immune-suppressor cells to enhance host immunity. NIR-PIT will be particularly important in patients with localized and locally advanced cancers and may help such patients avoid side-effects associated with surgery, radiation and chemotherapy.

    Journal, Immunogenic cell death:  Regulatory approval of photoimmunotherapy: photodynamic therapy that induces immunogenic cell death. (Pubmed Central) -  Nov 14, 2020   
    The treatment consists in the intravenous injection of cetuximab saratolacan, which binds to head and neck cancer cells expressing high levels of EGFR, followed by illumination of the tumor with red light (690 nm) for photodynamic therapy. This approach causes immunogenic cell death in malignant tissues, thus triggering a potent anticancer immune response.

    [VIRTUAL] PD-L1 is a potential predictive biomarker for response to RM-1929 treatment in recurrent head and neck squamous cell carcinoma patients () -  Oct 14, 2020 - Abstract #SITC2020SITC_1647;    
    P1/2
    Conclusions These results suggest that rHNSCC patients with lower PD-L1 expression levels may be more responsive to RM-1929 treatment and CPS/TPS could potentially be predictive biomarkers in identifying patients with a higher probability of benefiting from this treatment. Given the limited number of patients in this analysis, additional clinical trials will be needed to validate PD-L1 expression as an effective predictive biomarker for RM-1929 treatment.

    Furthermore, NIR-PIT also enhances nanodrug delivery into tumors up to 24-fold superior to untreated tumors with conventional EPR effects by intensively damaging cancer cells behind tumor vessels. We conclude by describing future advances in this novel photochemical cancer therapy that are likely to further enhance the efficacy of NIR-PIT.
