    Abstract Phospholipase C beta2 (PLC beta2) is activated by G protein betagamma subunits and calcium. The enzyme is soluble and its substrate, phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2), is present in phospholipid membranes. A potential mechanism for regulation of this enzyme is through influencing the equilibrium association of the enzyme with membrane surfaces. In this paper we describe a fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) method for measuring the association of PLC beta2 with phospholipid bilayers. The method allows equilibrium measurements to be made under a variety of conditions, including those that support enzymatic activity and ability to be regulated by G proteins. Using this method it was found that PLC beta2 bound to vesicles containing anionic lipids and demonstrated a selective and unique interaction with PIP2-containing vesicles. The FRET data were corroborated with a centrifugation based method for estimating the affinity of PLC beta2 for vesicles. Apparently different modes of association of PLC beta2 with vesicles of different composition can be distinguished based on alterations in resonance energy transfer efficiency. Association of PLC beta2 with PIP2 vesicles requires an intact lipid bilayer, is blocked by neomycin, and is not affected by D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (D-IP3). G protein betagamma subunits do not alter the affinity of PLC beta2 for lipid bilayers and at the PIP2 concentrations used to measure betagamma-dependent stimulation of PLC activity, the majority of the PLC beta2 is already associated with the vesicle surface. Furthermore, under conditions where betagamma subunits strongly activate PLC activity, the extent of association with vesicles is unaffected by betagamma subunits or calcium. These results indicate that activation of PLC beta2 by G protein betagamma subunits or Ca2+ in vitro does not involve translocation to the vesicle surface.

    Abstract In June 2021, FDA released a Draft Guidance on Sponsor Responsibilities for IND Safety Reporting and cited components of a recommended Safety Surveillance Plan (SSP). To meet the expectations of the 2021 FDA guidance, sponsors should document their plan for aggregate safety assessment. The Drug Information Association-American Statistical Association Interdisciplinary Safety Evaluation scientific working group has proposed an Aggregate Safety Assessment Plan (ASAP) that addresses this recommendation. The 2021 FDA guidance also discusses potential strategies for unblinded review of safety data from ongoing studies by an independent Assessment Entity, which could occur via planned periodic evaluations or "triggered" reviews based on blinded data assessments. The Assessment Entity reviewing unblinded data makes recommendations as to whether the threshold has been met for submission of an aggregate IND safety report. In this paper, we discuss how the ASAP supports IND aggregate safety reporting decisions, including elements to be included in a proposed SSP appendix to the ASAP. In addition, the authors advocate for the benefits of developing a charter (or specific section of the Data Monitoring Committee charter, if applicable) that describes the responsibilities and conduct of the Assessment Entity. With these components in place, study sponsors will meet the objective of having clearly defined processes for the monitoring of clinical trial safety data in aggregate and making IND safety reporting decisions.

    Abstract The expression of canonical chemosensory receptors of the tongue, such as the heteromeric sweet taste (TAS1R2/TAS1R3) and umami taste (TAS1R1/TAS1R3) receptors, has been demonstrated in many extra-oral cells and tissues. Gene expression studies have revealed transcripts for all TAS1 and metabotropic glutamate (mGlu) receptors in different types of immune cells, where they are involved, for example, in the chemotaxis of human neutrophils and the protection of T cells from activation-induced cell death. Like other class-C G protein-coupling receptors (GPCRs), TAS1Rs and mGlu receptors form heteromers within their families. Since mGlu receptors and TAS1R1/TAS1R3 share the same ligand, monosodium glutamate (MSG), we hypothesized their hitherto unknown heteromerization across receptor families in leukocytes. Here we show, by means of immunocytochemistry and co-IP/Western analysis, that across class-C GPCR families, mGlu

    Abstract Background and objective: Axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel) received marketing authorisation in Canada for the treatment of relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma after two or more lines of systemic therapy, and the clinical and economic value of axi-cel to patients and the healthcare system should be examined. The objective of this analysis is to determine, from societal and public healthcare payer perspectives, the cost effectiveness of axi-cel versus best supportive care for patients with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma in Canada.
    Methods: A pharmacoeconomic model was developed and populated with clinical data derived from the ZUMA-1 and SCHOLAR-1 studies using a propensity score-matched comparison. A partitioned survival mixture-cure modelling approach was taken to characterise the potential curative effect of axi-cel therapy in large B-cell lymphoma. Healthcare resource utilisation and adverse event data were based on results from ZUMA-1, and utility values were derived from ZUMA-1 data supplemented with published literature. Costs (in 2021 Canadian dollars) were taken from publicly available Canadian cost databases and published literature. Benefits and costs were discounted at 1.5% per year, and sensitivity analyses were conducted to assess the robustness of the results.
    Results: In the base case, axi-cel generated an incremental 6.2 life-years compared to best supportive care, corresponding to 4.6 additional quality-adjusted life-years, and was associated with $606,010 in additional costs. The incremental cost-utility ratio was $132,747 per quality-adjusted life-year gained compared with best supportive care from a societal perspective ($106,392 per quality-adjusted life-year gained from a public healthcare payer perspective). Key drivers of the analysis included progression-free survival and overall survival values for axi-cel.
    Conclusions: The results of this analysis suggest that axi-cel may be considered a cost-effective allocation of resources compared with best supportive care for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma in Canada.
