We aimed to assess the predictive impact of CMS on treatment with anti-EGFR vs. anti-VEGF antibodies vs. cytotoxic treatment alone in a pooled analysis. Methods: Available CMS data (called by predictedCMS method) of the randomized controlled trials FIRE-1 (FUFIRI vs. mIrOx); FIRE-3 (FOLFIRI+ cetuximab vs. bevacizumab), XELAVIRI (sequential vs. initially combined FOLFIRI+bevacizumab) and PanaMa (FOLFOX+panitumumab followed by FU/FA +/- panitumumab) of RAS WT mCRC

Antivascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) therapy has been a standard treatment for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. However, the risk of thromboembolic events and cardiovascular events associated with this therapy remains controversial. We assessed whether anti-VEGF therapy increases the risk of thromboembolic events or major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) in patients with colorectal cancer based on real-world evidence. This retrospective cohort study was designed using linked 2009–2016 nationwide databases, including the Taiwan Cancer Registry, the National Health

This retrospective nationwide cohort study included patients diagnosed with TB between 2011 and 2017 in South Korea. We performed Fine and Gray regression model analyses to assess the mortality risk of DM classified by cause of death.

Abstract Background: Naturally occurring IgM autoantibodies (NAb) recognize oxidation-specific epitopes which are altered self structures on apoptotic cells, oxidized LDL, or vessel wall proteins. Oxidation-specific epitopes are proinflammatory antigens and potential markers for chronic inflammatory conditions. The risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) is associated with (pro)inflammatory states such as dyslipoproteinemia, obesity or cancer. We hypothesize that natural antibodies may target epitopes which are also involved in the pathogenesis of VTE. In pursuing a “proof of concept”, we studied
