Pfizer's new treatment, Elranatamab, has received Breakthrough Therapy designation from the FDA for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. Data from the trial showed a patient efficacy rate of 61.0% and that once the therapy is effective, efficacy is maintained for more than six months in over 90% of patients!

With the continuous development of science and technology, a series of new myopia correction operations have emerged in the field of ophthalmology. After surgery, myopia patients can also achieve the vision effect when wearing glasses without wearing glasses. Excimer laser surgery, which has been carried out in the last two decades, has the advantages of high efficiency, accuracy and safety.

Afamitresgene Autoleucel, also known as Afami-cel or ADP-A2M4, is a novel TCR-T cell immunotherapy that has produced durable and promising results in patients with advanced synovial sarcoma or mucinous/round cell liposarcoma

Pancreatic cancer has long been known as the "king of cancers" due to its poor prognosis. However, a recent study showed that adding Mitazalimab to a modified FOLFIRINOX regimen resulted in control of over 90% of patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer, with 52% of patients experiencing significant tumour shrinkage!

Many patients with diabetes are painless when their blood sugar is high, and retinopathy is also silent and imperceptible. Therefore, the majority of diabetes patients should be reminded that after the diagnosis of diabetes, they must regularly screen the sugar network, and early diagnosis and treatment is the key. Early detection, early treatment and regular reexamination can avoid more than 90% of severe visual impairment.

Bile duct cancer is a rare but highly malignant tumour that occurs in the human bile duct system and has long had a poor prognosis. Now, researchers at University College London and University College London Hospitals, in an international multi-centre trial, have identified potentially good treatments that may radically improve the lives of some patients with bile duct cancer.

In recommendations released on 2 February 2023, the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) recommends that doctors consider neratinib for patients with HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer, regardless of their estrogen receptor status.

The US FDA has approved pablizumab (Keytruda) as an adjuvant treatment for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. In the trial, pablizumab (Keytruda) significantly prolonged cancer-free survival in patients compared to placebo.

In today's rapidly changing world of science and technology, a research result that sounds very sci-fi will appear from time to time. No, a paper published in the journal Science Robotics belongs to this scope: a cell regeneration robot that successfully works in vivo.

The development of an effective anti-aging drug and functional food to slow down ASCs' aging is crucial
