  • Safety and Tolerability of Arimoclomol in Patients with Sporadic Inclusion Body Myositis: a Randomised, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Proof-Of-Concept Trial
    Safety and tolerability of arimoclomol in patients with sporadic inclusion body myositis: a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, proof-of-concept trial Sporadic inclusion body myositis (IBM) is the commonest idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM) occurring in patients over the age of 50 years.1-4 The prevalence of IBM differs between different populations and ethnic groups, with estimates between 4.9-70.6 per million population.5-10 IBM is distinguished from the other IIM by early asymmetric finger flexor and knee extensor weakness (leading to loss of hand function and propensity to fall) and resistance to immunosuppressive therapy. Any skeletal muscle can be affected, including oesophageal and pharyngeal muscles. Late-stage disease can be characterized by very significant morbidity including disability and loss of quality of life. Death in IBM is related to malnutrition, cachexia, aspiration, respiratory infection and respiratory failure, as a consequence of dysphagia, severe global weakness and weakness of the respiratory muscles.1-4 In a Dutch cohort, end-of-life care interventions were used by 13% of patients with IBM, highlighting the morbidity experienced by these patients and the need of supportive and palliative care in this disease.2 The aetiopathogenesis of IBM remains uncertain. The varied pathological findings observed have driven a number of theories including viral infection, accumulation of toxic proteins, autoimmune attack, myonuclear degeneration, endoplasmic reticulum stress and impairment of autophagy and proteasomal proteolysis.11-15 Muscle biopsies from patients with IBM typically show several different pathological features broadly described as inflammatory or degenerative. Inflammatory features include endomysial infiltration by mononuclear cells (predominantly CD8+ T- cells), which surround and invade otherwise normal appearing muscle fibres, and overexpression of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I, which is not constitutively expressed by skeletal muscle.

  • Putting Into Perspective the Future of Cancer Vaccines: Targeted Immunotherapy
    Putting into Perspective the Future of Cancer Vaccines: Targeted Immunotherapy Authors: Issam Makhoul,1,2 *Thomas Kieber-Emmons2,3 1.

Rockefeller Cancer Institute, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Little Rock, Arkansas, USA 3. Department of Pathology, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, Little Rock, Arkansas, USA *Correspondence to [email protected] Disclosure: The authors have declared no conflicts of interest. Received: 11.11.19 Accepted: 12.02.20 Keywords: Cancer, cancer vaccine, checkpoint inhibitors. Citation: EMJ. 2020;5[3]:102-113. Abstract Pre-clinical models and human clinical trials have confirmed the ability of cancer vaccines to induce immune responses that are tumour-specific and, in some cases, associated with clinical response. However, cancer vaccines as a targeted immunotherapy strategy have not yet come of age. So, why the discordance after so much research has been invested in cancer vaccines? There are several reasons for this that include: limited tumour immunogenicity (limited targeted antigen expression, antigen tolerance); antigenic heterogeneity in tumours; heterogeneity of individual immune responses; multiple mechanisms associated with suppressed functional activity of immune effector cells, the underlying rationale for the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors; and immune system exhaustion. The success of checkpoint therapy has refocussed investigations into defining relationships between tumours and host immune systems, appreciating the mechanisms by which tumour cells escape immune surveillance and reinforcing recognition of the potential of vaccines in the treatment and prevention of cancer. Recent developments in cancer immunotherapies, together with associated technologies, for instance, the unparalleled achievements by immune checkpoint inhibitors and neo- antigen identification tools, may foster potential improvements in cancer vaccines for the treatment of malignancies.

Abstract Worldwide, deaths due to cancers are taking an increasing toll. Invariably over time cancer cells become refractory to available drugs. At this stage, the tumor is largely metastasized and not amenable to radical surgery or focal radiations. This review seeks to bring out the existence of heterogeneity of cell types in each cancer, and proposes adoption of a combined approach employing more than one therapeutic agent for a more lasting treatment. Also proposed is the use of monoclonal therapeutic antibodies and vaccines against ectopically expressed key molecules for killing of cancer cells and prevention of their multiplication.
