The biotech specialist said that its updated phase 2 data in a study
of its poziotinib candidate treatment for non-small cell lung cancer resulted in a preliminary confirmed
objective response rate and potential progression - free survival benefit in patients with the EGFR Exon 20 Mutant form
of the disease.
«Although still only in an early phase trial, brigatinib is showing an
objective response rate in approximately 70 percent
of ALK - positive patients post-crizotinib and it's showing about a year
of progression - free survival.
The
objective response rate (defined as the proportion
of complete
response and partial
responses among all evaluable patients) was also higher with chemotherapy (92/549, 16.8 percent) compared with TKI (39/540, 7.2 percent).
In addition to helping patients live longer, more patients treated with pembrolizumab responded to treatment and for a longer duration than those treated with chemotherapy; the
objective response rate — the percentage
of patients whose tumours shrank or disappeared — was almost twice as high with pembrolizumab: 21 % compared to 11 % on chemotherapy.
Previously, nivolumab plus ipilimumab had improved progression - free survival (PFS) and

Interim phase II results [12]
of first treatment with electroporation

Also, we used
objective approaches to quantify neighbourhood attributes that allowed us to partially control for potential reverse causality due to depressed individuals tending to exhibit negative cognitive bias resulting in negative thoughts and perceptions.65 Residential self - selection bias is likely to be a trivial source
of reverse causality in this study because Hong Kong's high levels
of population density (6760 people / km2) and low percentage
of developed land (less than 25 %) 66 limit most residents» choice
of accommodation and 37 %
of Hong Kong older adults live in public rental housing.67 Given the satisfactory
response rate and the level
of similarity in depressive symptoms and sociodemographic characteristics
of participants recruited from two types
of recruitment centres, the findings from this study are likely to be generalisable to the population
of Chinese Hong Kong older adults matching the study eligibility criteria and other populations
of older adults living in similar ultra-dense metropolises
of Southeast Asia.
