Dr. Jiuda Zhao Publishes Breakthrough Study in JCO, Demonstrating Electroacupuncture’s Significant Impact on Triple Antiemetic Therapy for Highly Emetogenic Chemotherapy

2024.10.27
Recently, the team led by Dr. Jiuda Zhao at the Breast Disease Diagnosis and Treatment Center of Qinghai University Affiliated Hospital published their latest research findings in the Journal of Clinical Oncology (JCO), with an impact factor of 42.10. This study is the first to combine the current standard triple antiemetic therapy with electroacupuncture (EA) to address chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) in breast cancer patients. The results demonstrate that adding EA to the standard triple antiemetic regimen significantly enhances CINV treatment outcomes. This study stands as the highest-impact acupuncture-related research publication in the field of oncology in China, showcasing the scientific prowess and innovative capabilities of Chinese scholars on the international stage. Oncology Frontier invited Dr. Jiuda Zhao to discuss this groundbreaking study.

WCLC 2024丨Furmonertinib Blazes New Trail in EGFR PACC NSCLC: A Quantum Leap in Precision Oncology

2024.10.18
EGFR P-loop-aC helix compression (PACC) mutation is a recently identified subtype of EGFR mutations in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and its potential for precision therapy had not been clinically validated until now. At the 2024 World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC 2024), during the Presidential Symposium Presentation, the global phase Ib FURTHER trial's proof-of-concept results were revealed. Furmonertinib as monotherapy in first-line treatment of NSCLC patients with EGFR PACC mutations demonstrated outstanding efficacy and safety. Oncology Frontier  interviews the study’s principal investigator, Dr. Xiuning Le from the MD Anderson Cancer Center, to delve into how EGFR PACC mutations moved from concept to clinic and how Furmonertinib is pioneering targeted therapy for this subtype of lung cancer.
