Background
The effectiveness of opioids for breathlessness seen in laboratory-based studies has not been replicated in clinical trials. We aimed to assess the effectiveness of oral morphine for breathlessness in long-term conditions.
Methods
This phase 3, parallel-group, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial across 11 centres randomly assigned consenting adults (1:1, stratified by site and causal disease) with a modified Medical Research Council breathlessness score of 3 or more due to cardiorespiratory conditions to receive 5–10 mg twice daily oral long-acting morphine or placebo (as well as a blinded laxative) for 56 days. The primary outcome was worst breathlessness score in the past 24 h at day 28, measured using a numerical rating scale (NRS; 0=not breathless at all; 10=worst imaginable breathlessness). Secondary outcomes included physical activity levels, worst cough NRS, quality of life, and morphine-related toxicities. Patients who received at least one dose of study drug were eligible for inclusion in efficacy and safety analyses. The trial was registered with ISRCTN (ISRCTN87329095) and the EU Clinical Trials Register (EudraCT 2019-002479-33).
Findings
Between March 18, 2021, and Oct 26, 2023, 143 participants were randomly assigned to receive either morphine (73 participants) or placebo (67 participants) and were included in the analyses; three participants did not receive the allocated treatment. Participants had a mean age of 70·5 (SD 9·4) years, were mostly male (93 [66%]), and were mostly White (132 [94%]). By day 28, 64 (88%) participants in the morphine group versus 66 (99%) in the placebo group had 90% adherence or greater. We found no evidence of difference in worst breathlessness at day 28 (morphine 6·19 [95% CI 5·57 to 6·81] vs placebo 6·10 [5·44 to 6·76]; adjusted mean difference 0·09 [95% CI –0·57 to 0·75], p=0·78) or any secondary measure, except for improved cough seen at day 56 (adjusted mean difference –1·41 [–2·18 to –0·64]). Increased moderate to vigorous physical activity was seen at day 28 (adjusted mean difference 9·51 min/day [0·54–18·48]) but this was not significant after multiple-measures correction. The morphine group had more adverse events (251 vs 162), serious adverse events (15 vs three, of which three in the morphine group and zero in the placebo group were deemed to be related to the study), and study drug withdrawals (13 vs two). There were no treatment-related deaths.
Interpretation
We found no evidence that morphine improves worst breathlessness intensity. Further research is needed to understand whether there is any role for morphine in chronic breathlessness, but our findings do not support its use in this setting.

Background
Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is predominantly driven by type 2 inflammation. The biologics dupilumab and omalizumab, which target drivers and mediators of type 2 inflammation (interleukin [IL]-4/IL-13 signaling and immunoglobulin E [IgE], respectively), are efficacious in treating CRSwNP but direct comparisons are few. In EVEREST (EValuating trEatment RESponses of dupilumab versus omalizumab), the first head-to-head trial in respiratory biologics, we aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of dupilumab and omalizumab in patients with severe CRSwNP who had mild, moderate, or severe asthma.
Methods
EVEREST was an international, randomised, double-blind, phase 4 trial, conducted at 100 hospitals or clinical centres in 17 countries. Sites were selected with otolaryngology, pneumologist, allergist, and immunologist practices; needed to have previously conducted double-blind studies; and were required have nasal endoscopy and electrocardiogram machines. Eligible patients aged 18 years or older with severe uncontrolled CRSwNP (with a nasal polyp score of 5 or more [and ≥2 for each nostril]), symptoms of nasal congestion and loss of smell for at least 8 weeks before screening, and physician-diagnosed asthma. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to subcutaneous dupilumab 300 mg every 2 weeks or omalizumab weight-tiered and IgE-tiered dosing every 2 weeks or 4 weeks for 24 weeks, with background mometasone furoate nasal spray. Patients and investigators were masked to the study drugs. Primary endpoints were change from baseline in endoscopic nasal polyp score and University of Pennsylvania Smell Identification Test (UPSIT) at 24 weeks. Efficacy was assessed in the intention-to-treat population and safety was assessed in patients who received at least one dose of study medication. The trial was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04998604.
Findings
Between Sept 27, 2021, and Dec 27, 2024, 819 individuals were screened for study inclusion, 459 were excluded (most common screen failures were: 167 did not meet nasal polyp score ≥5 or did not have ongoing symptoms of nasal congestion and loss of smell, 114 did not meet pre-bronchodilator FEV1 ≤85% predicted normal, and 99 did not meet eligibility as per omalizumab drug-dosing), and 360 participants were randomly assigned (181 assigned to the dupilumab group and 179 assigned to the omalizumab group). Of the 360 participants, 198 (55%) participants were male, 162 (45%) were female, and the mean age of the total population sample was 52 years (SD 13·1). Improvements were significantly greater with dupilumab than omalizumab for all primary and secondary efficacy endpoints at week 24. Least squares mean differences in change from
慢性鼻窦炎伴鼻息肉(CRSwNP)主要由2型炎症引起。生物制剂dupilumab和omalizumab分别靶向2型炎症的驱动因子和介质(白细胞介素[IL]-4/IL-13信号传导和免疫球蛋白E [IgE]),对治疗CRSwNP有效,但直接比较很少。在EVEREST(评估dupilumab与omalizumab的治疗反应)中,我们的目的是比较dupilumab和omalizumab在患有轻度、中度或重度哮喘的严重CRSwNP患者中的疗效和安全性。severest是一项国际性、随机、双盲、4期试验,在17个国家的100家医院或临床中心进行。选择耳鼻喉科、肺炎科、过敏症科和免疫学家执业的地点;需要先前进行过双盲研究;并且需要鼻内窥镜检查和心电图仪。符合条件的患者年龄为18岁或以上,患有严重不受控制的CRSwNP(鼻息肉评分为5分或以上[每个鼻孔≥2分]),筛查前至少8周有鼻塞和嗅觉丧失症状,医生诊断为哮喘。患者被随机分配(1:1)接受每2周300 mg的杜匹单抗皮下给药,或每2周或每4周给予奥玛珠单抗体重分级和ige分级给药,同时使用糠酸莫米松鼻喷雾剂。患者和调查人员对研究药物不知情。主要终点是24周内窥镜鼻息肉评分和宾夕法尼亚大学嗅觉识别测试(UPSIT)的基线变化。在意向治疗人群中评估了疗效,在接受至少一剂研究药物的患者中评估了安全性。该试验已在ClinicalTrials.gov注册,编号NCT04998604。在2021年9月27日至2024年12月27日期间,819人接受了纳入研究的筛查,459人被排除在外(最常见的筛查失败是:167名患者未达到鼻息肉评分≥5分或没有持续的鼻塞和嗅觉丧失症状,114名患者未达到支气管扩张剂前FEV1≤85%预测正常,99名患者不符合资格(根据omalizumab给药),360名参与者被随机分配(181名分配到dupilumab组,179名分配到omalizumab组)。360名参与者中,男性198人(55%),女性162人(45%),总体样本平均年龄52岁(SD 13.1)。在第24周的所有主要和次要疗效终点上,dupilumab的改善明显大于omalizumab。dupilumab与omalizumab从基线变化的最小二乘平均差异为:鼻息肉评分-1·60 (95% CI -1·96至-1·25;p< 0.0001)和UPSIT评分8.0(6.3至9.7;p< 0.0001)。dupilumab组179名受试者中有115名(64%)报告了治疗中出现的不良事件,omalizumab组173名受试者中有116名(67%)报告了治疗中出现的不良事件,其中最常见的是鼻咽炎、意外用药过量、头痛、上呼吸道感染和咳嗽。研究中没有死亡病例。在严重CRSwNP合并哮喘患者中,dupilumab优于omalizumab。这些发现支持dupilumab对2型呼吸系统疾病患者的疗效,以及dupilumab和omalizumab的已知安全性,并且可以在临床实践中为CRSwNP和哮喘患者提供更好的治疗靶向。资助赛诺菲和Regeneron制药公司。

Treating patients with extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) with poor performance status poses considerable challenges. We aimed to evaluate the combination of an immune checkpoint inhibitor with platinum-based therapy in this population.
Methods
This open-label, single-arm phase 2 NEJ045A trial enrolled untreated patients with extensive-stage SCLC with performance status 2 or 3. Participants received four cycles of durvalumab, carboplatin, and etoposide, followed by durvalumab maintenance. A dose adjustment strategy was used, with initial reductions in carboplatin–etoposide dosages, subsequently adjusted based on adverse events, allowing for potential escalation. The primary endpoint was tolerability, assessed by the proportion of patients completing induction therapy. A key secondary endpoint was 1-year survival rate. This trial is registered at the Japan Registry of Clinical Trials (jRCTs031200319) and has been completed.
Findings
Between April 8, 2021, and Oct 3, 2023, 57 patients (performance status 2 n=43 and performance status 3 n=14) were enrolled with a median age of 73·5 years (IQR 69·0–77·5), 44 (79%) of 56 were male. 26 (67%; 80% CI 55·2–76·7; p<0·0001) of 39 patients with performance status 2 and five (50%; 26·7–73·3; p=0·0088) of ten with performance status 3 completed induction therapy, exceeding the pre-specified threshold. Grade 3 or higher adverse events occurred in 52 (93%) of 56 patients, and 12 (21%) of 56 discontinued due to adverse events. The 1-year survival rates were 43·4% (80% CI 34·1–53·1) overall (p<0·0001), 50·0% (39·1–60·9) in performance status 2 (p<0·0001), and 18·2% (5·0–41·5) in performance status 3.
Interpretation
Durvalumab, carboplatin, and etoposide showed tolerability and promising efficacy as a first-line treatment for patients with untreated extensive-stage SCLC with poor performance status, supporting the integration of immune checkpoint inhibitors in this therapeutically challenging population.

Background
Physiological data suggest that insufficient and excessive respiratory drive and effort during mechanical ventilation might injure the lung and diaphragm, but their clinical relevance is unknown.
Methods
In this prospective, registry-based cohort study from the Toronto Intensive Care Observational Registry, we included all adults on mechanical ventilation admitted to the medical-surgical intensive care unit (ICU) at Toronto General Hospital from June 25, 2019, to April 1, 2022. There were no exclusion criteria. We obtained daily measurements of drive (airway occlusion pressure, P0·1), effort (expiratory occlusion pressure, Pocc), lung stress during spontaneous breathing (dynamic transpulmonary driving pressure, ΔPL,dyn), and ventilator-delivered dynamic driving pressure (ΔPaw,dyn) for the first 10 days of mechanical ventilation. Daily hazards of death in ICU or discharge alive from ICU were quantified using Cox proportional hazards models adjusted for changing severity of illness over time.
Findings
We included 1186 patients. 298 (25%) patients died during follow-up. P0·1 and Pocc showed a non-linear association with the hazards of death and discharge alive (p≤0·024). In patients with a ratio of arterial partial pressure of oxygen to inspired fraction of oxygen (PaO2:FiO2) of 150 mm Hg or less, both low and high levels of P0·1 and Pocc were associated with lower rate of ICU discharge; when PaO2:FiO2 was greater than 150 mm Hg, higher P0·1 and Pocc were associated with accelerated ICU discharge (interaction p<0·0001). High ΔPL,dyn was associated with lower rate of ICU discharge (p<0·0001), especially when PaO2:FiO2 was less than 150 mm Hg. Higher effort magnified the association between ΔPaw,dyn and rate of discharge alive (interaction p=0·0052).
Interpretation
In patients on mechanical ventilation, insufficient or excessive respiratory drive and effort were associated with higher ICU mortality and lower rate of ICU discharge, particularly when oxygenation was more severely impaired. Elevated respiratory effort exacerbated the effect of ventilator-delivered driving pressure on outcome.

生理数据表明,机械通气时呼吸驱动和用力不足和过度可能会损伤肺和膈肌,但其临床意义尚不清楚。方法在这项来自多伦多重症监护观察登记处的前瞻性登记队列研究中,我们纳入了2019年6月25日至2022年4月1日在多伦多总医院内科-外科重症监护病房(ICU)接受机械通气的所有成年人。没有排除标准。我们获得了机械通气前10天的每日驱动(气道闭塞压,P0·1)、用力(呼气闭塞压,Pocc)、自主呼吸时肺应激(动态经肺驱动压,ΔPL,dyn)和呼吸机传递的动态驱动压(ΔPaw,dyn)的测量值。使用Cox比例风险模型,根据疾病严重程度随时间的变化进行调整,对ICU每日死亡或从ICU活着出院的风险进行量化。结果纳入1186例患者。随访期间死亡298例(25%)。P0·1和Pocc与死亡和活出院危险度呈非线性相关(p≤0.024)。动脉血氧分压与吸入氧分数之比(PaO2:FiO2)小于或等于150 mm Hg的患者,低、高水平的P0·1和Pocc与较低的ICU出院率相关;当PaO2:FiO2大于150mmhg时,较高的P0·1和Pocc与ICU加速出院相关(相互作用p<; 0.0001)。高ΔPL,dyn与较低的ICU出院率相关(p< 0.0001),特别是当PaO2:FiO2小于150 mm Hg时。更高的努力放大了ΔPaw,dyn与活出院率之间的关联(相互作用p= 0.0052)。在机械通气患者中,呼吸驱动和努力不足或过度与ICU死亡率升高和ICU出院率降低相关,特别是当氧合受损更严重时。呼吸力升高加重了呼吸机驱动压力对预后的影响。加拿大国家疗养院协会。
