1.Dermatologic Adverse Events Related to Targeted Anti-cancer Agents in Children and Teenager: A Systematic Review
China Pharmacist 2017;20(6):1065-1070
Objective: To conduct systematic evaluation on the dermatologic toxicity caused by targeted anti-cancer drugs in children and teenager to provide reference for future studies and clinical practice.Methods: Pubmed(http:∥www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/), American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meetings' Online Abstracts Database(http:∥www.asco.org/) and ClinicalTrials.gov(http:∥www.clinicaltrials.gov) were searched for the clinical trials on the use of targeted anti-cancer drugs (single or combination) in children and teenager complicated with dermatologic toxicity.Methodological quality assessment was performed for the included studies, using Cochrane's risk of bias assessment tool for randomized controlled trials and methodological index for non-randomized studies (MINORS).Meta-analysis was performed for the outcomes including adverse event rate of skin rash, xerosis, pruritis and mucositis.Results: A total of 24 studies with 960 patients were included in this study.Various solid tumors and leukemia were investigated in the studies.The quality assessment revealed that the majority of included studies were with high quality.According to the results of meta-analysis, the pooled event rate and 95% confidence interval were 0.19[0.12-0.28],0.24[0.06-0.51],0.12[0.04-0.24] and 0.21[0.07-0.39] for skin rash, xerosis, pruritis and mucositis, respectively.Publication bias analysis indicated potential reporting bias for skin rash (Egger's P=0.007).Conclusion: Dermatologic adverse events occur in a part of children and teenager with cancer treated with targeted therapy, which may cause impaired quality of life and disability.Adequate attention should be paid to these events during clinical trials and real life practice.

Objective: To construct DNA vaccine against C region gene of SARS-CoV S protein, and observe the immune response induced by DNA vaccine injection and mucosal immunization. Methods: A recombinant DNA vaccine plasmid was constructed by cloning Sc gene fragment into pcDNA3. 1( - ) ,which could induce anti-SARS-CoV specific antibodies in mouse. After mice immunized with the recombinant DNA vaccine by injection and mucosal immunization, the SARS-CoV antibodies in the sera of mice were detected by ELISA,the lymphocyte phenotypes were detected by FCM,the specific antigen expressed in tissues was detected with immuno histochemical analysis. Detect spleen and MLN lymphocyte proliferation and CD8+ CTL response in vitro. Results: The titer of anti-Sc IgG was much higher in the mouse injected pcDNA3. 1-Sc than that of control group (P
