Trial reveals mechanisms that contribute to impact of malnutrition and HIV infection

Severe acute malnutrition is responsible for nearly half of all child deaths globally and affects 17 million children annually A trial led by researchers at Queen Mary University London, in partnership with two research institutes in Zambia and Zimbabwe, has identified the mechanisms that contribute to the long-term impacts of severe acute malnutrition (SAM) and HIV infection in children. Funded through the Medical Research Council’s (MRC) Global Challenges Research Fund, the study published in Nature Communications aims to identify a treatment to promote the healing of intestinal damage caused by SAM. Affecting around 17 million children every year, predominantly in Africa, SAM and malnutrition are responsible for almost half of all child deaths globally and cause damage to the enteropathy, the small intestine, by reducing its ability to absorb nutrients. The new phase 2 trial, involving 125 children who had been hospitalised due to complications from arising SAM, evaluated four ...

CureVac and MD Anderson Cancer Center partner to develop new cancer vaccines

Both will develop cancer vaccine candidates in selected haematological and solid tumour indications CureVac and the University of Texas’s MD Anderson Cancer Center have announced a co-development and licensing agreement to develop novel messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA)-based cancer vaccines. The strategic collaboration will focus on the development of differentiated cancer vaccine candidates in selected haematological and solid tumour indications with high unmet medical needs. Solid tumour cancer, such as sarcoma, carcinoma and lymphoma, is characterised by an abnormal mass of tissue that usually does not contain cysts or liquid areas. Haematologic cancer, otherwise known as blood cancer, including leukaemia, lymphoma and multiple myeloma, begins in blood-forming tissues such as the bone marrow or in the cells of the immune system. Under the terms of the agreement, MD Anderson will be responsible for conducting phase 1/2 studies of the selected promising validated cancer vaccine candidates and the completion of investigational new ...

New clinical trial aims to investigate skin patches to spot lung transplant rejection

Involving 152 patients, the SENTINEL trial aims to cut lung transplant rejection by up to 50% A new clinical trial being led by the University of Oxford’s Surgical Trial Units in collaboration with NHS Blood and Transplant and five UK lung transplant centres will investigate whether skin patches can be used as an early warning system to detect lung transplant rejection. The SENTINEL trial is being funded by £2m in partnership with the Medical Research Council and the National Institute for Health and Care Research. Lung transplant rejection is commonly monitored through lung function tests, blood tests, X-rays and lung biopsies. However, until it is advanced, lung transplant rejection can be challenging to identify. The new trial aims to investigate the new early warning system to identify early signs of rejection to be rolled out to all lung transplant recipients, cutting rejection by up to 50%. Set to be carried ...

Use of Popular Pain Reliever During Pregnancy Not Linked to Neuro Disorders in Kids

Questions about whether acetaminophen use during pregnancy can lead children to develop neurological problems have sparked scientific inquiry and litigation. Lawsuits are continuing, but a new National Institutes of Health-sponsored study has results that show no causal link between acetaminophen and neurodevelopmental disorders. By Frank Vinluan When women experience pain or fever during pregnancy, many clinicians recommend acetaminophen for relief. But concerns about a possible link between these medicines and neurodevelopmental disorders have lingered. A multi-year study sponsored by the National Institutes of Health has results that add to the scientific consensus that these medicines aren’t the cause of neurodevelopmental problems. Acetaminophen is the active pharmaceutical ingredient in some prescription products and popular over-the-counter pain relievers, notably Tylenol and Excedrin. While nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs offer an alternative approach to pain relief, these drugs aren’t recommended during pregnancy because they can cause low levels of amniotic fluid among other problems. The ...
