Efficacy and Safety of Oxybutynin Versus Paroxetine in Aromatase Inhibitor-induced Vasomotor Symptoms...
Vasomotor SymptomsBreast cancer is the most prevalent cancer type worldwide. In Egypt, It is the second most common type of cancer and the most common one in women with about 22 thousand new cases in 2020. Around 70% of newly diagnosed patients are hormone receptor-positive and, unfortunately, the disease is often diagnosed at the advanced stage. In postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive breast cancer, aromatase inhibitors (AIs) are the first-line adjuvant therapy according to National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines. Although, they showed superiority in efficacy to tamoxifen in this type of breast cancer, one of the most annoying adverse effects of the aromatase inhibitors are the vasomotor symptoms. They could be as severe as the patient would prefer discontinuing the medication. The underlying mechanism responsible for those adverse effects is that AIs suppress plasma estrogen levels by inhibiting the enzyme responsible for the conversion of androgens to estrogens in peripheral tissues. This estrogen depletion has been linked to an increase in hot flushes by decreasing endorphin levels and increasing that of norepinephrine and serotonin, followed by instability of the hypothalamic thermoregulatory set point which allows changes in the body temperature and in hot flash sensation. Hormone replacement therapy is considered first-line treatment for vasomotor symptoms. However, it is not preferred to be used in breast cancer patients especially those with hormone receptor positive breast cancer. So, many drugs have been investigated for their efficacy in reducing the frequency and severity of vasomotor symptoms. The only FDA-approved drug to treat moderate-to-severe vasomotor symptoms is paroxetine. Paroxetine is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) which is used mainly in major depressive disorder and other psychiatric conditions like anxiety disorders. It has proved an efficacy in reducing frequency and severity of hot flushes in post-menopausal women. But, there are several concerns regarding its use with tamoxifen in breast cancer patients. There is a competition between paroxetine and tamoxifen for hepatic CYP2D6, so, paroxetine prevents conversion of tamoxifen into its active metabolite. Oxybutynin has shown efficacy in relieving vasomotor symptoms. Oxybutynin is an anticholinergic used usually in urinary incontinence. It has an advantage over other SSRIs that it lacks the interaction with tamoxifen on CYP2D6 and, therefore, with the anticancer effect of tamoxifen treatment in breast cancer patients. To our knowledge, there are no head-to-head studies comparing the efficacy and safety of paroxetine versus oxybutynin in reducing frequency and severity of vasomotor symptoms especially in breast cancer patients taking aromatase inhibitors.

Feasibility of tDCS as an Adjunct to Outpatient Physiotherapy in Children With ABI
Acquired Brain InjuryStroke2 moreThis study will evaluate the feasibility of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) as an adjunct to an outpatient motor skills-based physiotherapy intervention for children and youth with acquired brain injury. Up to 10 children (age 5-18 years) with childhood onset stroke or traumatic brain injury will be randomly allocated to receive active or sham anodal tDCS immediately prior to the physiotherapy session. These sessions will occur twice weekly for a total of 10 sessions. Assessment of gross motor outcome measures will occur immediately before and after the combined tDCS and physiotherapy treatment protocol. The preliminary treatment effect between the two treatment groups will be compared and other feasibility indicators will be evaluated.
Ultrasound-guided Femoral Puncture to Reduce Access- Related Complications After TAVR: (ACCESS-TAVR...
Transcatheter Aortic Valve ReplacementRecent observational data showed a marked reduction of vascular and bleeding complications by the use of ultrasound(US)-guided femoral artery puncture to gain the vascular access and guide the implantation of the Perclose ProGlide® vascular closure system. We aimed to compare in a 1:1 randomized fashion the effect of US-guided femoral puncture and Perclose ProGlide® implantation optimization vs fluoroscopy-guided puncture followed by Perclose ProGlide/ ProStyle implantation (standard approach) during TAVR.
Combination of CAR-DC Vaccine and ICIs in Malignant Tumors
Solid TumorAdult6 moreThis is a pilot clinical trial for subjects with local advanced/metastatic solid tumors or relapsed/refractory (R/R) lymphomas to determine the safety, efficacy and immune response of autologous EphA2-targeting CAR-DC vaccine loaded with TP53 mutant peptide (TP53-EphA-2-CAR-DC) in combination with ICIs. It aims to: assess the safety and antitumor effects of TP53-EphA-2-CAR-DC vaccine; detect T cell response against TP53 mutant peptide and tumor neoepitopes after the treatment with TP53-EphA-2-CAR-DC vaccine and ICIs.
