About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

Bayer Starts Phase I Study With Novel Targeted Radionuclide Therapy 225Ac-PSMA-Trillium in Advanced Metastatic Prostate Cancer

  • 225Ac-PSMA-Trillium (BAY 3563254) is an investigational next-generation PSMA-targeted alpha therapy with potential to treat patients with advanced metastatic prostate cancer
  • Prostate cancer is the second most commonly diagnosed cancer in men1, with less than three years median survival among metastatic patients, who have developed castration-resistance2
  • Bayer remains committed to advancing medical innovations for patients across all stages of prostate cancer

Bayer announced today initiation of dosing in a Phase I first-in-human clinical study with 225Ac-PSMA-Trillium (BAY 3563254), a next-generation targeted alpha therapy. The investigational candidate, labeled with actinium-225 and comprising a novel PSMA (prostate-specific membrane antigen) -targeting small molecule with a customized albumin-binding moiety, is designed to potentially improve therapeutic efficacy and reduce side effects in normal organs such as salivary glands. The dose-escalation study (NCT06217822) will evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of 225Ac-PSMA-Trillium in patients with advanced metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

“Despite recent advances in the treatment landscape for prostate cancer, there is still a high unmet need for novel precision therapy options to improve outcomes for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer," said Fred Saad, MD, FRCS, Professor and Chairman of Surgery at University of Montreal and Director of Genitourinary Oncology at University of Montreal Hospital Center (CHUM), Canada.“225Ac-PSMA-Trillium is a novel approach, which could provide a new treatment to address this unmet need in mCRPC.”

“Targeted radionuclide therapy is a strategic pillar of precision oncology at Bayer, holding the promise to shift the treatment paradigm for patients, including those whose disease has developed resistance to other treatments,” said Dominik Ruettinger, M.D., Ph.D., Head of Research and Early Development for Oncology at Bayer. “We are excited to announce initiation of the phase I and dosing of the first patient with 225Ac-PSMA-Trillium. With its unique design, we believe it could offer a meaningful benefit for patients with metastatic prostate cancer, and we look forward to advancing the program through clinical development.”

Prostate cancer is the second most commonly diagnosed cancer in men1 and a key area of focus at Bayer. Despite significant advances in the last decade, mCRPC remains a deadly disease with a median survival of about 31 months.2 Bayer remains committed to advancing medical innovations for patients across all stages of prostate cancer.

In April, Bayer introduced 225Ac-PSMA-Trillium during the New Drugs on the Horizon session at the AACR (American Association of Cancer Research) Annual Meeting.3 Along with preclinical in vitro and in vivo characterization, the results were presented for a Phase 0 clinical imaging and dosimetry study conducted in participants with prostate cancer.

About Targeted Alpha Therapy

Targeted alpha therapy is an emerging class of radionuclide therapy that can be used against a variety of tumors. It is designed to deliver alpha particle radiation directly to the tumor inside the body, either via its bone-seeking property (radium-223) or by combining alpha radionuclides, such as actinium-225, with specific targeting moieties. This localized delivery of the radioactive payload induces difficult to repair double-strand DNA breaks in tumor cells; damage that can cause cell cycle arrest or cell death. At the same time, because the energy does not travel very far, there is a potential for reduced damage to nearby normal tissues.4-6
