Evaluating the NFPp10a/NF5310 glioblastoma model as a faithful avatar for screening tumour microenvironment–targeted therapies
Abstract Despite positive outcomes for novel targeted therapy screens in preclinical studies, the majority of follow on GBM clinical trials fail to meet their primary endpoints. This translational gap is partly due to models that do not accurately recapitulate the human GBM-TME and therefore fail to accurately predict patient treatment response.

Outpatient elective induction of labour at 39 weeks’ gestation (HOME INDUCTION): an open-label, randomised, controlled, phase III, non-inferiority trial
Summary The increased demand for induction of labour (IOL) at 39 weeks’ gestation in normal-risk nulliparous patients creates significant logistical challenges for busy maternity units. A potential innovation is commencing induction by means of outpatient cervical ripening, using either a vaginal prostaglandin preparation (Propess) or an osmotic cervical dilator (Dilapan-S).
