The prevalence of multiple myeloma is increasing and there is a need to evaluate escalating therapy costs (Canadian Cancer Statistics A, 2020). The MYX.1 phase II trial showed that high-dose weekly carfilzomib, cyclophosphamide, and dexamethasone (wKCD) is efficacious in relapsed and refractory disease. We conducted a descriptive cost analysis, from the perspective of the Canadian public healthcare system, using trial data. The primary outcome was the mean total cost per patient. Resource utilization data were collected from all 75 trial patients over a trial time horizon. Costs are presented in Canadian dollars (2020). The cost of treatment was calculated from the time of patient (pt) enrollment until the second data lock. The mean total cost was $203336.08/pt (range $17891.27-$505583.55) Canadian dollars (CAD, where 1 CAD=0.67 Euro (EUR)) and $14081.45/pt per cycle. The median number of cycles was 15. The predominant cost driver was the cost of chemotherapy accounting for an average of $179332.78/pt or $12419.17/pt per cycle. Pembrolizumab mw Carfilzomib acquisition accounted for the majority of chemotherapy costs - $162471.65/pt or $11251.50/pt per cycle. Fifty-six percent (56%) of patients had at least one hospitalization during the trial period with an average cost of $12657.86 per hospitalization. Three patients developed thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) with an average cost of $18863.32/pt including the cost of hospitalizations and therapeutic plasma exchange. High-dose wKCD is an active triplet regimen for relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) associated with reduced total cost compared with twice-weekly carfilzomib-based regimens.

Controlling postprandial hyperinsulinaemia is important in insulin dysregulated (ID) horses to reduce the risk of laminitis. To evaluate postprandial insulin responses of ID versus non-insulin dysregulated (NID) horses to feedstuffs varying in nonstructural carbohydrate (NSC) and crude protein (CP). Randomised crossover. Eighteen adult mixed-breed horses (13.3±2.2years; 621±78.8kg) were individually fed [~1g/kg body weight (BW)] specific feedstuffs within two crossover studies. Eight ID and eight NID were used in Study A, and 11 ID and 5 NID in Study B. In Study A, all horses were randomly fed once cracked corn (CC ~74% NSC & ~9% CP), ration balancer with low protein (RB-LP ~15% NSC & ~17% CP), ration balancer with high protein (RB-HP ~14% NSC and ~37% CP) and 5050 mixture of RB-LPRB-HP (MIX-P). In Study B, horses were randomly fed once CC, RB-HP, steam-flaked corn (SF ~73% NSC & ~10% CP), oat groats (OG ~64% NSC & ~14% CP) and a low NSC pellet (L-NSC ~6% NSC & ~12% CP). Blood was NID horses. NSC appears to be the main driver of the postprandial insulin response. ID horses respond disproportionately to feeding even small amounts of low/moderate NSC feedstuffs. Data on possible dietary thresholds for postprandial insulin responses cannot be extrapolated from NID horses. The aim is to examine the association between seven candidate single nucleotide polymorphisms in AMPKα1 and gestational diabetes in Chinese people. We used a matched nested case-control study design, individuals including 334 participants with gestational diabetes and 334healthy pregnant women. Confirmed 334gestational diabetes cases and maternal age and district of residence matched controls (11) were enrolled. We examined seven candidate single nucleotide polymorphisms in AMPKα1gene and the risk of gestational diabetes. The associations were estimated in Co-dominant, Dominant, Recessive, and Alleles models. The odds ratios (ORs) and their 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were estimated by unconditional l
