The present invention is directed to a System characterization of NASH that combines Modeling and Biomarkers, enabling pharmaceutical compositions and methods of treatment that relate to the inhibition, resolution and / or prevention of Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) and Non Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH). Said conditions are Liver related complications among the array of manifestations of metabolic syndromes, including Type 2 diabetes, hyperlipidemia, weight gain, abdominal obesity, insulin resistance, hypertension, atherosclerosis, fatty liver diseases and certain chronic inflammatory states that lead to these manifestations, among others. In additional aspects, the present invention relates to compositions and methods which may be used to treat, inhibit or reduce the likelihood of NASH and NAFLD complications in patients with hepatitis viral infections, including Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C viral infections, as well as the secondary disease states and / or conditions which are often associated with such viral infections, including hepatic steatosis (steatohepatitis), cirrhosis, fatty liver and hepatocellular cancer, metabolic syndrome complications including cardiovascular diseases, neurodegenerative diseases and premature ageing, among other disease states or conditions.

Quinoline derivatives showing anticancer activities against cancer cell lines of hepatocellular carcinoma (Hep3B), lung carcinoma (A549), esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (HKESC-1, HKESC-4 and KYSE150). The quinoline derivatives have a backbone structure of the following formulas:

The invention discloses a method for establishing a hepatocellular carcinoma postoperative risk assessment model, the model comprises 10 metabolism-related gene calculation items, the sum of the expression level of each gene weighted by a corresponding coefficient is used as a risk score, the risk of poor postoperative overall survival of a patient can be judged, and tumor metabolism characteristics are reflected.

An oncolytic virus for use in a method of treating or preventing cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC), renal cell carcinoma (RCC), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), small cell lung cancer (SCLC), advanced recurrent head and neck cancer, squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN), nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), anal cancer, colorectal cancer (CRC), basal cell carcinoma (BCC), Merkel cell carcinoma, appendiceal carcinoma, sarcoma of the skin, recurrent melanoma after surgery, advanced or metastatic urothelialcarcinoma, liver metastases, microsatellite instability high cancer (MSI-H), mixed advanced solid tumors, virally caused cancer, locoregionally advanced cancer, pediatric cancer, cancer in patients with no or minimal pre-existing anti-cancer immunity, cancer as first line therapy, cancer in previously treated patients, cancer in patients who have not received checkpoint blockade therapy, and / or cancer in patients who have received checkpoint blockade therapy, wherein the oncolytic virus: is, or is derived from, a clinical isolate which has been selected by comparing the abilities of a panel of three or more clinical isolates of the same viral species to kill tumor cells of two or more tumor cell lines in vitro and selecting a clinical isolate which is capable of killing cells of two or more tumor cell lines more rapidly and / or at a lower dose in vitro than one or more of the other clinical isolates in the panel; comprises (i) a fusogenic protein-encoding gene; and (ii) an immune stimulatory molecule or an immune stimulatory molecule-encoding gene; comprises (i) a GM-CSF-encoding gene; and (ii) an immune co-stimulatory pathway activating molecule or an immune co-stimulatory pathway activating molecule-encoding gene; and / or comprises a gene encoding a CTLA-4 inhibitor.

The present application provides novel human genes WDRPUH and KRZFPUH, and PPIL1 whose expression is markedly elevated in a great majority of HCCs and colorectal cancers, respectively, compared to corresponding non-cancerous tissues, as well as novel human gene APCDD1 whose expression is elevated in primary colon cancers and down-regulated in response to the transduction of wild-type APC1 into colon-cancer cells. The genes and polypeptides encoded by the genes can be used, for example, in the diagnosis of a cell proliferative disease, and as target molecules for developing drugs against the disease.

Docetaxel and doxorubicin can be formulated in liposomal pharmaceutical compositions. In various embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions include (i) a first liposome type comprising a first lipid layer comprising an unsaturated phospholipid, cholesterol or a cholesterol derivative, DC-cholesterol, a cationic lipid, and preferably a pegylated phospholipid, and a first active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) comprising docetaxel in the first lipid layer; and (ii) a second liposome type comprising a second lipid layer, an aqueous interior, and a second API comprising doxorubicin crystallized in the aqueous interior, (iii) where the first liposome type does not comprise doxorubicin and the second liposome type does not comprise docetaxel. The pharmaceutical composition can be used to treat a subject, for example, a human subject having cancer. The cancer can be, for example, a lung cancer, preferably non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), colon cancer, breast cancer, or liver cancer, preferably hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Systems, kits and methods for preparing an injection system and / or treating target lesions with a selective internal radiation therapy which includes a double-barrel syringe loaded with a two-component tissue glue and radioisotope loaded microspheres. The microspheres are loaded into the syringe based on the size of the target location and are administered with a needle or dual-lumen catheter. Dosing regimens for treating breast cancer lesions or surgical beds up to 130 mm in diameter and hepatocellular carcinoma lesions up to 50 mm are included.

The invention relates to the nucleic acid sequences of two novel human ARL-related gene variants (ARLV1 and ARLV2) and the polypeptides encoded by ARLV1 and ARLV2.The invention also relates to the process for producing the polypeptides encoded by ARLV1 and ARLV2.The invention further relates to the use of the nucleic acid of ARLV1 and ARLV2 and the polypeptide encoded by ARLV1 and ARLV2 in diagnosing diseases associated with the deficiency of human ARLV gene, in particular large cell lung cancer or hepatocellular carcinoma.

The present invention relates to an antibody specifically binding to glypican 3 (GPC3), a nucleic acid encoding the antibody, a vector and a host cell containing the nucleic acid, a method of preparing the antibody, and a pharmaceutical composition for treating cancer or tumor, containing the antibody as an active ingredient. The antibody specifically binding to glypican 3 according to the present invention may be effectively used to treat cancer or tumor, particularly, hepatocellular carcinoma due to high affinity and specificity to glypican 3.
