1.Microenvironment and therapeutic targets of metastatic bone cancer
Journal of International Oncology 2014;41(11):854-857
Currently,the treatment of bone metastases is quite limited,and the effect is not significant.It is a tempting but difficult task to find valid therapy.The recent research on bone microenvironment,including the osteoblasts,osteoclasts and tumor cells et al,may provide new targets and methods for the treatment of bone metastases.

Objective To evaluate the effect of ilaprazole enteric tablets on intragastric pH in duodenal ulcer patients. Methods A randomized, double blind, positive controlled clinical trial was carried out. A total of forty-two patients with duodenal ulcer were randomized into low dose ilaprazole group (5 mg/d), medium dose ilaprazole group (10 mg/d), high dose ilaprazole group(20 mg/d) and omeprazole group(20 mg/d). An ambulatory 24 hour intragastric pH study was performed at the fifth treatment day. Fraction time pH above 3, 4 or 5, median values of 24 hour diurnal pH and 12 hour nocturnal pH, the percentage of patients with total time pH above 3, 4 or 5 at least for 18 hours were evaluated. Results There were no significant differences of fraction time pH above 3 or 4, median values of 24 hour diurnal pH and 12 hour nocturnal pH and the percentage of patients with total time pH above 3, 4 or 5 at least for 18 hours among all the groups with different doses of ilaprazole and the omeprazole group. The fraction time pH above 5 in medium and high dose ilaprazole groups were (87.96 ± 12. 29)% and (89.86±15. 18)% respectively, which was higher than that in low dose ilaprazole group [(67. 17± 30. 16)%] and omeprazole group[(76. 14 ± 16. 75)%], P <0. 05. Conclusion Ilaprazole has a strong effect on intragastric acid control with a dose dependent trend.

Objective:
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of a domestic human plasma derived coagulation Factor Ⅸ concentrate (pd-FⅨ) in patients with hemophilia B.
Methods:
The study was a multicenter, open-label and single-arm study. The efficacy of pd-F Ⅸ was evaluated by objective performance criteria. The doses of pd-FⅨ were calculated according to the bleeding symptom and disease severity. The infusion efficiency of pd-FⅨ and improvement of bleeding symptoms were measured at 30 minutes and (24±4) h after the first infusion, respectively. Adverse events were recorded. Viral infection and FⅨ inhibitor were detected 90 d after the first infusion.
Results:
All 36 subjects with hemophilia B were enrolled in the study. The median age of these patients was 31 years old and the median injection doses were 4 (1-17) times. The hemostatic effect of 27/36 (75.00%) and 9/36 (25.00%) acute bleeding events were rated as "excellent" and "better" , respectively. The recovery rate was 111.92% (65.55%-194.28%) at 30 minutes after infusion of FⅨ. There was no adverse event related to FⅨ. No reactivation of HBV, HCV or HIV and FⅨ inhibitor was detected at 90-104 d after the first FⅨ infusion.
Conclusion:
This domestically made human plasma derived FⅨ concentrate is safe and effective in the treatment of acute bleeding in patients with hemophilia B.

The intention to treat (ITT) principle is widely applied in the randomized controlled trials (RCTs), which is based on the intention to treat a subject (i.e. the planned treatment regimen) rather than the actual treatment given. With the development and progress of clinical trials, ITT principle needs to be reinterpreted. In the standard definition of ITT principle, the intentional grouping of subjects does not specifically refer to randomization, but rather to planned treatment regimen. In non-randomized clinical trials, that subjects agree to be included in a certain treatment regimen is also a type of intention. ITT principles can be applied to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment regimens under patient/doctor determined intentionality in single-arm clinical trials and non-randomized RWS (real world study, RWS). In the practical application, the grouping strategy based on ITT principle should be considered comprehensively according to the research purpose.
