The present invention relates to a method for detecting markers of fibroblast activation in a patient by sandwich immunoassay to identify patients, particularly cancer patients who would benefit from anti-TGFβI therapy. The markers of fibroblast activation may be selected from the N-terminal pro-peptide of Collagen III (Pro-C3), the N-terminal pro-peptide of Collagen VI (Pro-C6), the N-terminal pro-peptide of Collagen I (Pro-C1) and/or an internal sequence in the N-terminal region of type 3 collagen (P3NP). The invention also provides an anti-TGFβI therapy for use in the treatment of cancer and/or fibrosis.

Dual amylin and calcitonin receptor agonists and uses thereof
The present disclosure related to the field of medicine. More particularly, the disclosure is in the field of treatment of diabetes, obesity, and/or dyslipidemia. The disclosure relates to compounds that agonize both the calcitonin and amylin receptors and can lower food intake, body weight, glucose and/or triglycerides, so can be used to treat diabetes, obesity and/or dyslipidemia. The present disclosure also includes pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds and therapeutic uses of such compounds and compositions.
