Männer mit metastasiertem Hormon-sensiblen Prostatakarzinom (mHSPC) erreichen ein signifikant höheres medianes progressionsfreies Überleben anhand radiologischer Befunde (rPFS) und haben eine höhere objektive Responserate, wenn sie zusätzlich zu einer Androgen-depravierenden Therapie (ADT) auch Enzalutamid erhalten (jeweils p < 0,0001). Dies zeigt die randomisierte, doppelblinde Phase-III-Studie ARCHES (NCT02677896), deren Ergebnisse auf dem Genitourinary Cancers Symposium (ASCO GU) vorgestellt wurden.

The panorama of cancer treatment has taken a considerable leap over the last decade with the advancement in the upcoming novel therapies combined with modern diagnostics. Nanotheranostics is an emerging science that holds tremendous potential as a contrivance by integrating therapy and imaging in a single probe for cancer diagnosis and treatment thus offering the advantage like tumor-specific drug delivery and at the same time reduced side effects to normal tissues. The recent surge in nanomedicine research has also paved the way for multimodal theranostic nanoprobe towards personalized therapy through interaction with a specific biological system. This review presents an overview of the nano theranostics approach in cancer management and a series of different nanomaterials used in theranostics and the possible challenges with future directions.

Brain pathology expert Dr Jun-ichi Satoh, from the Department of Bioinformatics and Molecular Neuropathology of Meiji Pharmaceutical University in Tokyo, is drawing on his expertise on neurology and neuroimmunology to delve into some of the more complex diseases impacting the human brain. His knowledge and expertise have allowed him to direct his research interests to study neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), and neuroinflammatory diseases, such as multiple sclerosis (MS), and the analysis of their molecular pathogenesis by using a bioinformatics approach. His current focus is on Nasu-Hakola disease (NHD), a disease whose rarity has posed significant barriers towards performing large-scale clinical research in order to understand what exactly causes this disease and develop effective novel therapies.
