Email: [email protected]. Abstract: Advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a deadly disease. With increasing incidence of new cases over the last years multiple efforts have been made to ameliorate survival and quality of life. Recent advances in understanding the tumor microenvironment and cancer immune evasion led to development of potent immune therapies targeting programmed death-ligand-1 (PD-L1), programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) and anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein-4 (CTLA-4). Early clinical studies highlighted the activity and synergism of checkpoint inhibitors with antiangiogenic drugs, including anti- vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) antibodies and multi-tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Most recently, the combination of bevacizumab and atezolizumab improved survival compared to sorafenib in the treatment of advanced HCC on first-line therapy in a randomized phase III trial and now is considered the standard of care. -
Outlaw: Wilderness and Exile in Old and Middle
THE ‘BESTLI’ OUTLAW: WILDERNESS AND EXILE IN OLD AND MIDDLE ENGLISH LITERATURE A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Sarah Michelle Haughey August 2011 © 2011 Sarah Michelle Haughey THE ‘BESTLI’ OUTLAW: WILDERNESS AND EXILE IN OLD AND MIDDLE ENGLISH LITERATURE Sarah Michelle Haughey, Ph. D. Cornell University 2011 This dissertation, The ‘Bestli’ Outlaw: Wilderness and Exile in Old and Middle English Literature explores the reasons for the survival of the beast-like outlaw, a transgressive figure who highlights tensions in normative definitions of human and natural, which came to represent both the fears and the desires of a people in a state of constant negotiation with the land they inhabited. Although the outlaw’s shelter in the wilderness changed dramatically from the dense and menacing forests of Anglo-Saxon England to the bright, known, and mapped greenwood of the late outlaw romances and ballads, the outlaw remained strongly animalistic, other, and liminal, in strong contrast to premodern notions of what it meant to be human and civilized. I argue that outlaw narratives become particularly popular and poignant at moments of national political and ecological crisis—as they did during the Viking attacks of the Anglo-Saxon period, the epoch of intense natural change following the Norman Conquest, and the beginning of the market revolution at the end of the Middle Ages. Figures like the Anglo-Saxon resistance fighter Hereward, the exiled Marcher lord Fulk Fitz Waryn, and the brutal yet courtly Gamelyn and Robin Hood, represent a lost England imagined as pristine and forested. -

Methods: This prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded-endpoint, multicenter, parallel-group, comparative study included 340 subjects with T2DM and no history of apparent CVD recruited at 24 clinical units. Subjects were randomly allocated to either the tofoglifozin treatment group (n 169) or conventional treatment group using drugs other than SGLT2 inhibitors (n 171). Primary outcomes were changes= in mean and maximum common carotid IMT measured by echography during= a 104-week treatment period. Results: In a mixed-efects model for repeated measures, the mean IMT of the common carotid artery (mean- IMT-CCA), along with the right and left maximum IMT of the CCA (max-IMT-CCA), signifcantly declined in both the tofoglifozin ( 0.132 mm, SE 0.007; 0.163 mm, SE 0.013; 0.170 mm, SE 0.020, respectively) and the control group ( 0.140 mm,− SE 0.006; 0.190 mm,− SE 0.012; 0.190 mm,− SE 0.020, respectively). -

Sillajen to Discontinue PHOCUS Trial for Advanced Liver Cancer
SillaJen to discontinue PHOCUS trial for advanced liver cancer 06 August 2019 | News | By Sonali Wankhade The PHOCUS trial is a Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating the oncolytic immunotherapy Pexa-Vec (formerly JX-594) for advanced liver cancer SillaJen, Inc., a South Korea based clinical-stage, biotherapeutics company focused on the development of oncolytic immunotherapy products for cancer, has announced that the Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC) for the company's PHOCUS trial has evaluated the results of a formal pre-planned futility analysis for this study, and has recommended discontinuation of the trial. The PHOCUS trial is a Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating the oncolytic immunotherapy Pexa-Vec (formerly JX-594) for advanced liver cancer. While Pexa-Vec is generally well tolerated by patients, the interim results suggest that the study is unlikely to meet the primary objective by the time of the final analysis. This decision was not related to the safety of the investigational product. SillaJen is taking steps to notify investigators that enrollment is being stopped. SillaJen thanks the patients, caregivers and investigators involved in our clinical study and will continue to seek effective treatments for cancer patients. "The interim results are a disappointment to the company. However, SillaJen has shifted its focus toward other combination therapies that offer a more compelling and commercially viable solution to address unmet needs in liver cancer as well as other therapeutic areas," stated Dr. Eun Sang Moon, chief executive officer of SillaJen. "Other programs have continued to deliver encouraging results. The discontinuation of the study will allow us to focus on a more promising development program." The PHOCUS trial was designed to enroll 600 patients, worldwide, who had not received prior systemic treatment for their cancer, and they were randomized to one of two treatment groups: one which received Pexa-Vec followed by sorafenib and one which received sorafenib alone. -
