Phase 1 Study of the Selective c-MET Inhibitor, HS-10241, in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors
Introduction: c-MET is an important therapeutic target for various cancers; however, the People’s Republic of China currently retails only one specific c-MET inhibitor. Our preclinical study has revealed the high selectivity of HS-10241 to suppress c-MET. This phase 1 study aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and antitumor activity of the selective c-MET inhibitor (HS-10241) in patients with advanced solid tumors. Methods: Patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors orally received a single or multiple dose of HS-10241 once daily or twice daily for 21 consecutive days, which included the following six regimens: 100 mg once daily, 200 mg once daily, 400 mg once daily, 600 mg once daily, 200 mg twice daily, and 300 mg twice daily. The treatment continued until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or treatment termination. The primary end point was the incidence of dose-limiting toxicity and maximal tolerated dose (MTD). Secondary end points included safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics. Results: A total of 27 patients with advanced NSCLC received HS-10241, and dose-limiting toxicity was observed in three patients after 600 mg once-daily HS-10241 treatment. For once-daily dosing, MTD was 400 mg, and for twice-daily dosing, the maximal safe escalated dose was 300 mg, and MTD was not reached. Nausea (48.1%, 13 of 27), fatigue (37.0%, 10 of 27), and anemia (33.3%, 9 of 27) are the three most frequent treatment-emergent adverse events. At 400 mg once daily, Css,max was 5076 ng/mL and steady state area under the curve was 39,998 h × ng/mL. Patients (n = 5) with positive MET (MET exon 14-skipping, MET amplified, and MET immunohistochemistry 3+) had confirmed partial responses (n = 1) or stable disease (n = 3), with a disease control rate of 80.0%. Conclusions: The selective c-MET inhibitor HS-10241 was well tolerated and had clinical activity in advanced NSCLC, especially in patients with positive MET. Furthermore, this study expounds on the therapeutic potential of HS-10241 in patients with cancer
10241 Executive Summary – Information Visualization
Information Visualization (InfoVis) focuses on the use of
visualization techniques to help people understand and analyze
data. While related fields such as Scientific Visualization involve
the presentation of data that has some physical or geometric
correspondence, Information Visualization centers on abstract
information without such correspondences.
The aim of this seminar was to bring together theoreticians
and practitioners from the field with a special focus on the
intersection of InfoVis and Human-Computer Interaction. To support
discussions that are related to the visualization of real world
data, researchers from selected application areas also attended and
contributed. During the seminar, working groups on eight different
topics were formed and enabled a critical reflection on
ongoing research efforts, the state of the field, and key research
challenges today
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
