TL;DR: Antiinflammatory therapy targeting the interleukin‐1β innate immunity pathway with canakinumab at a dose of 150 mg every 3 months led to a significantly lower rate of recurrent cardiovascular events than placebo, independent of lipid‐level lowering.

TL;DR: The hypothesis-generating data suggest the possibility that anti-inflammatory therapy with canakinumab targeting the interleukin-1β innate immunity pathway could significantly reduce incident lung cancer and lung cancer mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The magnitude of hsCRP reduction following a single dose of canakinumab might provide a simple clinical method to identify individuals most likely to accrue the largest benefit from continued treatment, and suggest that lower is better for inflammation reduction with canakinUMab.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficacy of quetiapine monotherapy in bipolar I and II depression: a double-blind, placebo-controlled study (the BOLDER II study).
Michael E. Thase,Wayne Macfadden,Richard H. Weisler,William Chang,Björn Paulsson,Arifulla Khan,Joseph R. Calabrese +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that quetiapine monotherapy is an effective and well-tolerated treatment for depressive episodes in bipolar disorder, confirming the results observed from a previous study.
Journal ArticleDOI

Allan H. Young,Susan L. McElroy,Michael Bauer,Nabil Philips,William Chang,Bengt Olausson,Björn Paulsson,Martin Brecher +7 more
TL;DR: Quetiapine (300 or 600 mg/d) was more effective than placebo for the treatment of episodes of acute depression in bipolar disorder and lithium did not significantly differ from placebo on the main measures of efficacy.
