Effect of Everolimus in Treatment of Aggressive Prolactin-Secreting Pituitary Adenomas.
Aggressive prolactin-secreting pituitary adenomas that are resistant to conventional therapy with dopamine agonists, surgery, and radiation pose a therapeutic challenge. The mTOR inhibitor everolimus is approved to treat neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) and co-treatment with the somatostatin receptor ligand octreotide improved median progression free survival in patients with metastatic pancreatic NETs.
Early everolimus introduction and tacrolimus minimization after liver transplantation may represent a novel immunosuppressant approach. This phase 2, multicenter, randomized, open-label trial evaluated safety and efficacy of early everolimus initiation. Patients treated with corticosteroids, tacrolimus, and basiliximab, were randomized (2:1) to receive everolimus (1.5 mg bid) in day 8 and gradually minimize or withdraw tacrolimus when everolimus was stable >5 ng/mL, or to continue tacrolimus at 6-12 ng/mL. ...
Purpose Everolimus inhibits the mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR), activating cytoprotective autophagy. Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) inhibits autophagy. Based on preclinical data demonstrating synergistic cytotoxicity when mTOR inhibitors are combined with an autophagy inhibitor, we launched a clinical trial of combined everolimus and HCQ, to determine its safety and activity in patients with clear cell renal carcinoma (ccRCC). Experimental Design Three centers conducted a phase I/II trial of everolimus 10...
Gastroenteropancreatic (GEP) neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) represent a heterogeneous group of tumors that is associated with an indolent course. Octreotide has a positive effect on disease stabilization in well-differentiated midgut NETs, but a meaningful survival analysis was not possible due to insufficient events. Higher doses of octreotide long-acting release (LAR) are often used in clinical practice for control of carcinoid symptoms and our objective was to determine if dose of octreotide correlates wit...
Octreotide ameliorates dermal fibrosis in bleomycin-induced scleroderma
Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I is a differentiation and growth factor. Antifibrotic action of octreotide has been reported in pulmonary fibrosis. The present study aimed to research the prophylactic and therapeutic potential of octreotide on a bleomycin (BLM)-induced experimental scleroderma model.
Epilepsy occurs in 70-90% of patients with tuberous sclerosis complex. We aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of adjunctive everolimus for treatment-refractory seizures associated with tuberous sclerosis complex in paediatric patients enrolled in the EXIST-3 trial, a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomised, phase 3 study.
Partial diazoxide responsiveness in a neonate with hyperinsulinism due to homozygous ABCC8 mutation.
We report a case of partial diazoxide responsiveness in a child with severe congenital hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia (CHI) due to a homozygous ABCC8 mutation. A term baby, with birth weight 3.8 kg, born to consanguineous parents presented on day 1 of life with hypoglycaemia. Hypoglycaemia screen confirmed CHI. Diazoxide was commenced on day 7 due to ongoing elevated glucose requirements (15 mg/kg/min), but despite escalation to a maximum dose (15 mg/kg/day), intravenous (i.v.) glucose requirement remained...
Use of everolimus-eluting stents (EES) has proven to be clinically effective and safe in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction but it remains unclear whether it is cost-effective compared to bare-metal stents (BMS) in the long-term. We sought to assess the cost-effectiveness of EES versus BMS based on the 5-year results of the EXAMINATION trial, from a Spanish health service perspective.
1. To study the efficacy of exercise in improving clinical symptoms, anthropometry, glucose tolerance and laboratory profile in women with Polycystic ovarian syndrome. 2. To study the combined efficacy of exercise and metformin on above parameters in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
The clinical efficiency of everolimus, an mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor, is palliative as sequential or second-line therapy for renal cell carcinoma (RCC). However, the limited response of everolimus in RCC remains uncertain. In the present study, everolimus-resistant RCC models were established to understand the mechanisms and to seek combination approaches. Consequently, the activation of ERK was found to contribute toward everolimus-acquired resistance and poor prognosis in patients with...
The effect of Resveratrol and Octreotide on peritoneal adhesions in a rat model.
The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of resveratrol and octreotide, agents that are used to prevent intra-abdominal adhesions in experimental models, in preventing intraperitoneal adhesions when used alone or in combination.
mTOR inhibitors are frequently used in the treatment of metastatic renal cell cancer (mRCC). mTOR regulates cell growth, proliferation, angiogenesis, and survival, and additionally plays an important role in immune regulation. Since mTOR inhibitors were shown to benefit immunosuppressive regulatory T-cell (Treg) expansion, this might suppress antitumor immune responses. Metronomic cyclophosphamide (CTX) was shown to selectively deplete Tregs. This study was, therefore, designed to determine the optimal dosa...
Background/Aims. To assess health-related quality of life (HRQoL), treatment patterns and clinical outcomes of adult (≥18 years) patients with advanced (unresectable or metastatic) pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (PanNENs) treated with everolimus in routine clinical practice.
Everolimus is the only FDA approved drug to treat renal angiomyolipoma or subependymal giant-cell astrocytomas (SEGA) in tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). Potential differences exist between patients with commercial and Medicaid insurance on everolimus use, however, there is limited information from the real-world. This study compared compliance and persistence of everolimus between commercial and Medicaid patients using the US claims data.
The purpose of this study was to identify the risk factors for everolimus discontinuation in kidney transplant recipients converted to everolimus with calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) minimization at a late post-transplant stage.
We aimed to compare the coronary angioscopic appearance of neointimal coverage (NIC) over durable-polymer everolimus-eluting stents (XIENCE-EES) and bioresorbable-polymer everolimus-eluting stents (SYNERGY-EES) 1 year after implantation.
Calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) therapy after lung transplantation increases risk of kidney failure. Early everolimus-based quadruple low CNI immunosuppression may improve renal function without compromising efficacy or safety. A prospective, randomized, open-label, 12-month multicenter trial was conducted at eight German sites. Patients 3-18 months after lung transplantation were randomized (1:1), stratified by baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). In the quadruple low CNI regimen, patients rec...
Viability criteria for functional assessment of donor livers during normothermic machine perfusion.
Persisting donor organ shortage has led to an increased utilization of suboptimal donor livers for transplantation. Transplantation of these extended-criteria donor (ECD) livers, however, is associated with high rates of complications, including early allograft dysfunction (EAD) and primary nonfunction (PNF). As a result, a large number of ECD livers are discarded. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
The EXIST-2 (NCT00790400) study demonstrated the superiority of everolimus over placebo for the treatment of renal angiomyolipomas associated with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) or sporadic lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM). This post hoc analysis of EXIST-2 study aimed to assess angiomyolipoma tumor behavior among patients who submitted to continued radiographic examination following discontinuation of everolimus in the noninterventional follow-up phase.
We aimed to assess the implementation and effectiveness of exemestane plus everolimus treatment per hospital type in real-life, shortly after approval of everolimus.
Should more donation after cardiac death livers be used in pediatric transplantation?
There is a mismatch that exists in donor liver organ supply and demand. DCD livers represents a potential source to increase the number of liver grafts available for use in pediatric recipients; however, there has been hesitancy to use such organs. We evaluated patient and allograft outcomes in pediatric liver transplant recipients of DCD livers.
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common condition characterized by hyperandrogenism, anthropometric changes (increased weight and waist-to-hip ratio [WHR]), behavioral changes (sexual dysfunction, anxiety, and depression), and reduced quality of life. Physical exercise may reduce many of the adverse effects of PCOS. However, no studies have yet evaluated the effects of aerobic exercise on the sexual function of women with PCOS.
This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of fish oil omega-3 fatty acid supplementation on mental health parameters and metabolic status of women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
