Safety and efficacy of anti-PD-1 inhibitor ABBV-181 in lung and head and neck carcinoma
Abstract Background ABBV-181 is a humanized anti-PD1 monoclonal antibody; dose finding and early safety, PK and pharmacodynamic data have been reported (ESMO18). This report summarizes data from the head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) expansion cohorts in the Ph1 FIH study (NCT03000257). Methods Patients (pts) with previously treated, advanced HNSCC and NSCLC received ABBV-181 IV, 250 mg Q2W or 500 mg Q4W to progression. Response was assessed by RECIST v1.1 and iRECIST. Results As of April 2019, 81 pts were dosed. Table . 1288P n (%) HNSCC n = 41 NSCLC n = 40 Median days on treatment, range 72, 1–407 71, 1–421 Dose: 250 mg/500 mg 31/10 19/21 …
Energy spectrum of cosmic protons and helium nuclei by a hybrid measurement at 4300 m a.s.l.
The energy spectrum of cosmic Hydrogen and Helium nuclei has been measured, below the so-called "knee", by using a hybrid experiment with a wide field-of-view Cherenkov telescope and the Resistive Plate Chamber (RPC) array of the ARGO-YBJ experiment at 4300 m above sea level. The Hydrogen and Helium nuclei have been well separated from other cosmic ray components by using a multi-parameter technique. A highly uniform energy resolution of about 25% is achieved throughout the whole energy range (100 TeV - 700 TeV). The observed energy spectrum is compatible with a single power law with index gamma=-2.63+/-0.06.
Organosulfates in atmospheric aerosol: synthesis and quantitative analysis of pm<sub>2.5</sub> from xi'an, northwestern china
Abstract. The sources, formation mechanism and amount of organosulfates (OS) in atmospheric aerosol are not yet well understood, partly due to the lack of authentic standards for quantification. In this study, we report an improved robust procedure for the synthesis of organosulfates with different functional groups. Nine authentic organosulfate standards were synthesized and four standards (benzyl sulfate, phenyl sulfate, glycolic acid sulfate, and hydroxyacetone sulfate) were used to quantify their ambient concentrations. The authentic standards and ambient aerosol samples were analyzed using an optimized ultra performance liquid chromatography–electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrom…
