Favipiravir, previously known as T-705, is a prodrug of a purine nucleotide, favipiravir ribofuranosyl-5'-triphosphate. The active agent inhibits the RNA polymerase, halting viral replication. Most of favipiravir's preclinical data are derived from its influenza and Ebola activity; however, the
Background:
- Hairy cell leukemia (HCL) is an indolent B-cell leukemia comprising 2% of all leukemias, or approximately 1900 new cases/year in the US. The nucleoside analogs cladribine and pentostatin are highly active as monotherapy with complete remission (CR) rates of 80 to 90%. However, there is
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of adult blindness in developed countries and the third cause of global blindness. It is an eye-ageing disease with tremendous impact in daily quality of life. Clinically, AMD is a progressive disease, which evolves from early to late
Chemotherapy has life-threatening or distressing side effects such febrile neutropenia, infections, mucositis, nausea, vomiting, fatigue. Mucositis is defined as inflammatory and/or ulcerative lesions of the oral and/or gastrointestinal tract that can be caused by high dose chemotherapy, Infectious
Proto-oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes are the most important genes involved in leukemogenesis , which their alterations disrupt normal regulatory processes such as self-renewal, proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis in target cells. Among those genes FoxO3a gene and PU.1 gene.

Background:
- Hairy cell leukemia (HCL) is an indolent CD22+ B-cell leukemia comprising 2% of all leukemias, or approximately 1200 of the 62,130 new cases of leukemia/year in the US. HCL variant (HCLv), also CD22+, is 10-20% as common as HCL, but more common in the relapsed/refractory population due
1. Mechanism of action. The study drug, Ad/PNP-F-araAMP (Fludarabine phosphate) consists of a nonreplicating adenoviral vector expressing the E. coli purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) injected intratumorally followed by intravenous administration of F-araAMP. This combination generates
Surgical resection is the main treatment for potentially curable solid organ cancer. However, long-term survival after cancer surgery is far from satisfactory. Quite a number of patients develop tumor metastasis and/or recurrence after surgery, which are associated with poor long-term outcomes. The
Ovarian cancer is the leading cause of death for patients with gynecologic malignancies. Approximately 75% of patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage will eventually experience disease recurrence. The overall response rates of second-line chemotherapy for recurrent ovarian cancer are only
The successful treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) depends on the ability to achieve complete remission (CR) and to prevent relapse. Both may be affected by the efficacy of induction chemotherapy. The gold standard for treatment since 1982 has been DA, a regimen of three days of daunorubicin
Although 60-80% of AML patients can achieve complete remission through conventional chemotherapy, relapse is still a common problem. For patients unlikely to respond, re-induction attempts may be dismal, leading to more organ toxicity and increased tumor resistance. In addition, 10% to 40% of
The exact mechanisms by which AMS develops remains poorly understood. Interestingly, brain and spinal cord swelling due to low oxygen levels can also occur in the period following surgery to treat thoracic and abdominal aortic aneurysms, dangerous swellings of the major blood vessel in the body.
Surgical resection is the main treatment for potentially curable solid organ cancer. However, it is unavoidable that some cancer cells are disseminated into the circulatory or lymphatic system during surgery. And quite a number of patients develop cancer recurrence and/or metastasis after surgery,
Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia (ALL) is the most frequent cancer in children. Each year approximately 220 children are diagnosed with ALL within the Nordic and Baltic countries.
The survival rate has improved significantly during the last decades, but the treatment still fails to cure approximately
Rhus coriaria L.(Rhus) is a well-known spice widely consumed in the world which has also been utilized extensively for medicinal purposes. The antioxidant components of this plant made it a favorable target for laboratory and animal studies in different conditions such as oxidative stress
