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.

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.

Journal, IO biomarker: Near-Infrared Photoimmunotherapy of Cancer. (Pubmed Central) - Aug 7, 2020 P3 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.
