Safety and efficacy analysis of neoadjuvant radiotherapy combined with concurrent paclitaxel plus nedaplatin versus other platinum-based chemotherapy for thoracic segmental esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. (PubMed, Front Oncol) - "A total of 212 patients were enrolled in this retrospective cohort study, including 79 who received NDP and 133 who received OPB (82 were treated with cisplatin, 20 with carboplatin, 19 with lobaplatin, and 12 with oxaliplatin) agents. The Kaplan-Meier curves for overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) showed similar results for both groups. The safety profile of nedaplatin may be superior to those of other platinum-based agents in terms of acute radiotherapy toxicity and postoperative side effects; however, there was no difference in the efficacy between the two groups regarding short-term prognostic tumor regression grades or long-term OS and PFS."

QuEChERS and UPLC-MS/MS-Based Quantification of Human Plasma of Eight Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors and Platinum Anticancer Drugs for Hepatocellular Carcinoma. (PubMed, Molecules) - "The target analytes-lamivudine, telbivudine, emtricitabine, entecavir, tenofovir, nedaplatin, oxaliplatin, and adefovir dipivoxil-exhibited strong linearity within the 10-1000 ng/mL and 1-100 ng/mL ranges, showing correlations (r2) ≥ 0.9962. Overall, this analytical approach can be used to detect the combination of eight NRTIs and platinum-based drugs in human plasma. This method enables plasma drug-level monitoring in real time, with applications for individualized treatment approaches."

Safety and efficacy analysis of neoadjuvant radiotherapy combined with concurrent paclitaxel plus nedaplatin versus other platinum-based chemotherapy for thoracic segmental esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (Frontiers) - "A total of 212 patients were enrolled in this retrospective cohort study, including 79 who received NDP and 133 who received OPB (82 were treated with cisplatin, 20 with carboplatin, 19 with lobaplatin, and 12 with oxaliplatin) agents. The incidences of grade 3–4 acute radiotherapy-associated esophagitis, pneumonitis, and leukemia were significantly lower in the NDP group than in the OPB group (p = 0.02, p < 0.001, and p = 0.002, respectively). All grades of acute gastrointestinal reactions, including nausea, vomiting, anorexia, and diarrhea, were significantly more frequent in the OPB group than in the NPD group (p < 0.001, p = 0.032, p < 0.001, and p = 0.002, respectively).

A case of camrelizumab-induced anaphylaxis and successful rechallenge: a case report and literature review. (PubMed, Front Oncol) - "He underwent multiple cycles of therapy, tolerating camrelizumab, nab-paclitaxel, and nedaplatin (200 mg of camrelizumab every 3 weeks) without adverse reactions in the first four cycles...The camrelizumab infusion was immediately halted, and the patient was treated with intravenous dexamethasone (10 mg) combined with intramuscular diphenhydramine, calcium gluconate, and 500 ml of normal saline; his blood pressure gradually increased to 110/80 mmHg within 10 minutes, and pruritic erythematous macules appeared on his skin, particularly on the upper limbs...The patient did not report significant discomfort. Although acute allergic reactions are relatively rare among immune-related adverse events, due to the widespread clinical application of camrelizumab, its potential for allergic reactions should be given high priority."
