Clinical impact of potential drug-drug interactions between midostaurin and posaconazole in FLT3-mutated AML. (PubMed, Antimicrob Agents Chemother)
Midostaurin clearance was delayed during co-administration. Midostaurin therapeutic drug monitoring may serve for decision-making when DDI with CYP3A4 inhibitors is suspected.

Pharmacological boosting of azacitidine/venetoclax in acute myeloid leukemia. (PubMed, Blood Neoplasia)
Azacitidine/venetoclax is the standard treatment for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) unfit for intensive chemotherapy. The potentiated antileukemic activity positions cobicistat as a promising complementary agent in AML therapy. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as NCT06014489.

Celastrol overcomes 5-fluorouracil resistance in osteosarcoma cells through p53-mediated apoptotic pathway modulation and P-glycoprotein inhibition: A comprehensive mechanistic study. (PubMed, Bioimpacts)
Celastrol reduced P-gp expression and increased intracellular drug accumulation, comparable to verapamil. Celastrol synergizes with 5-FU to overcome chemoresistance in osteosarcoma by enhancing p53-mediated and -independent apoptosis and inhibiting P-gp-mediated drug efflux. These findings suggest a promising low-toxicity therapeutic strategy, warranting further in vivo and clinical investigations.

Co-encapsulated fluorescent magnetic nanoparticles for potential applications in breast cancer therapy: Exploratory in vitro and in vivo studies. (PubMed, Int J Pharm)
This study describes, for the first time in literature, a suitable approach to develop co-encapsulated magnetic nanoparticles based on fluorescent biotinylated N-palmitoyl chitosan, hydrophobic magnetite, Docetaxel and Verapamil. No significant toxicity was observed for magnetic nanoparticles in the rats. Overall, these findings suggest that the developed magnetic nanoplatforms represents a promising candidate for breast cancer applications and merits further in vivo investigation needed to elucidate the action mechanism of encapsulated therapeutics and their pharmacologic activity.

Simultaneous Determination of Venetoclax and Posaconazole in Human Plasma by UPLC-MS/MS: Application to Therapeutic Drug Monitoring in Acute Myeloid Leukemia Patients. (PubMed, Drug Des Devel Ther)
The trough concentrations of venetoclax were 9326.88 ± 12,169.05 ng/mL in patients treated with venetoclax alone, and 31,623.55 ± 28,453.67 ng/mL in patients treated with venetoclax in combination with posaconazole. A rapid and simple method was established and successfully applied to the simultaneous determination of the concentrations of venetoclax and posaconazole in AML patients, providing a basis for TDM and clinical pharmacokinetic analysis of these drugs in AML patients.

DRG Explant Model for Understanding Mechanism of Oxaliplatin-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy and Identifying Potential Therapeutic Targets. (PubMed, Antioxidants (Basel))
Oxaliplatin-triggered chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common and debilitating side effect of cancer treatment that limits the efficacy of chemotherapy and negatively impacts patients' quality of life dramatically. Notably, inhibition of TXNIP with verapamil reduced oxidative stress levels. Our results demonstrated the use of DRG explants as an efficient model to study the mechanisms of CIPN and screen for potential treatments.
