Despite its unique features, there is a lack of data concerning the treatment of ALK-positive NSCLC in Indonesia. Therefore, this study represented the first attempt to document the treatment landscape for ALK-positive NSCLC in the country. The available ALK inhibitors included crizotinib, alectinib, brigatinib, and lorlatinib, and none of these were listed under the Indonesian Universal Health Coverage as of September 2022. This study aimed to characterize survival outcomes of ALK-positive NSCLC patients treated within a specialized thoracic oncology practice in Indonesia.Methods: The retrospective observational cohort study drew secondary data from medical records of ALK-positive NSCLC patients treated at a private thoracic oncology clinic. Data were collected retrospectively, spanning from December 2019 to December 31, 2022. Exclusion criteria included incomplete data, untreated ALK-positive NSCLC, cases at stage I-III, or diagnoses made after August 2021. The observation period extended up to 36 months, although several patients exceeded 48 months, with one individual currently boasting a 96-month survival.Results: A total of 15 patients with ALK-positive NSCLC were selected as the respondents in this study. The median age stood at 50.8 years, predominantly female, and diagnosed with adenocarcinoma. Predominant sites of metastasis included pleural effusion and brain metastases, and preliminary 36-month survival rates reached 73.3%. The 1-year survival rate was recorded at 100%, while the 2-year overall survival (OS) stood at 80%, aligning closely with global ALK inhibitors clinical trial data.Conclusions: This study provided the first-ever dataset indicating an ALK-positive profile within a singular thoracic oncology clinic in Indonesia. Despite the accessibility constraints of treatments, ALK-positive patients showed comparable total survival to pivotal clinical trial data. This preliminary dataset shed light on the profile and treatment of ALK-positive NSCLC in the country.","PeriodicalId":13489,"journal":{"name":"Indonesian Journal of Cancer","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135247679","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In Indonesia, a total of 65,858 new cases with a 22,530 mortality rate were reported in 2020. To overcome this health condition, surgery serves as the primary treatment, with post-mastectomy complications frequently involving seroma formation, exacerbating post-operative problems. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the total drain volume in post-MRM breast cancer patients using Songket incision compared to Stewart incision plus axillary anchor. This experiment was conducted to determine the optimal surgical option for breast cancer patients.Methods: A two-arm randomized controlled trial was conducted in female patients with breast cancer treated at the Surgical Oncology Division of Mohammad Hoesin Hospital Palembang between April to May 2022. Patients were blindly assigned to one of the two arms, namely the Songket incision and Stewart incision plus an axillary anchor. The eligible sample consisted of patients diagnosed with breast cancer who were slated for Modified Radical Mastectomy (MRM) surgery, willing to participate, and signed informed consent. The primary outcome of this study was total drain volume, while the secondary objective encompassed the length of treatment selected.Results: A total of 26 patients participated in this study (n=13 in each arm). The total drain volume using the Stewart incision was 378.07 ± 219.57, compared to 174.23 ± 97.44 ml for the Songket design (p< 0.001). The mean length of treatment was 4.46 ± 0.77 days in the Stewart incision plus axillary anchor group and 3.23 ± 0.43 days in the Songket incision design (p < 0.001).

Therefore, accurate diagnosis of each disease is crucial to ensure precise treatment. This case study showed the coexistence of pulmonary TB and primary pulmonary sarcoma.Case Presentation: A 62-year-old male presented with a 3-month history of dyspnea, which worsened within 3 days. Before hospitalization, there were complaints of left chest pain, fatigue, loss of appetite, weight loss within 5 months, and night sweats. The patient who was a heavy smoker had experienced hemoptysis in the past 5 months. Upon physical examination, an increased respiratory rate and decreased oxygen saturation level. Furthermore, there were asymmetrical thorax movements, dull percussion on the left side, and decreased vesicular breathing sound on the left hemithorax, with no rhonchi or wheezing. A chest x-ray showed a destroyed left lung, while scanning confirmed left lung atelectasis and indicated a suspected mass within or around the left bronchus causing total obstruction in the main left bronchus. The bronchoscopy procedure identified a mass blocking the left main bronchus. However, a biopsy yielded inconclusive results. A rapid molecular test of TB detected Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which was discovered to be Rifampicin sensitive. As a result, the patient was treated daily with 4 fixed drug combinations for anti-TB. Despite the treatment, the complaint was not resolved within the next 3 months, as there was still a disease of cough in the form of mass-like phlegm, which uncovered a malignancy focus cell with differential diagnosis of pleomorphic sarcoma and sarcomatoid carcinoma.Conclusions: Lung malignancy not only overlapped with but also occurred simultaneously alongside lung TB.

Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital, located in Bandung, West Java, is one of the main cancer referral hospitals in Indonesia. Consequently, the characteristics of GTN patients in this hospital can represent the general population in the province. This study aimed to elaborate on the characteristics of referral patients with GTN in Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital.Methods: : Medical records of post-molar GTN patients in Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital from between January 2019 to December 2020 were collected and analyzed. GTN was diagnosed according to the International Federation in Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) criteria. Additionally, both the sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of patients were evaluated.Results: The results showed that among the 160 participants in this study, the overall mean age was 33±8.7 years, with a mean βhCG level of 241,461.81±630,557.90 mIU/mL. Moreover, approximately 16.3% had gestosis and 5% were diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. The majority of post-molar observations at the hospital were not carried out according to standards, with only 8.1% of patients receiving optimal surveillance. About 56.8% visited the hospital due to vaginal bleeding, while most histopathological results showed complete hydatidiform moles (44.4%), and choriocarcinomas (16.3%). Most of the patients were diagnosed as stage I (81.9%), had lowrisk FIGO scores (80.6%), and were treated with methotrexate (80.6%).Conclusions: GTN patients in Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital showed clinical characteristics consistent with previous studies. The low percentage of patients receiving optimal post-molar surveillance could cause delayed referral. This suboptimal surveillance might be due to the high cost of βhCG testing, lack of facilities, and low patient compliance in West Java","PeriodicalId":13489,"journal":{"name":"Indonesian Journal of Cancer","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135247839","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) on the left shoulder showed an 8 x 9 x 17 cm solid soft tissue mass on the left deltoid muscle with the necrotic component that expands to adjacent cutaneous and subcutaneous tissue. In this case, the left humerus attaches to the deep brachial artery and vein. Previous pathological studies with immunohistochemicals showed desmoid fibromatosis. A multidisciplinary team discussion led to the selection of, radiotherapy for treatment because of tumor localization and proximity to the critical structure. Radiation was also selected as the definitive therapy of choice with the aim of local control and organ preservation. Furthermore, the radiation dose was 56 Gy in 2 Gy per fraction over six weeks.

However, tissue biopsy as the gold standard to determine tumor molecular status is not always feasible in advanced diseases. Liquid biopsy, a minimally invasive technique to obtain cytological and molecular assessment from patients allows real-time monitoring of tumors and identification of resistant mechanisms. Therefore, this preliminary study aimed to compare the molecular profile of advanced NSCLC from liquid and tissue biopsy.Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on patients with NSCLC undergoing diagnostic procedures at Dharmais National Cancer Center Hospital from January 2018 to December 2021. Tissue biopsy to check epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations was performed on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue blocks. Analysis of mutations involved using a home-brew polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based on a high-resolution melting technique. Meanwhile, the liquid biopsy was performed using blood samples, and sequencing for circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) was carried out with NGS.Results: : The results showed that among the 22 subjects enrolled in the study, tissue biopsy identified wild-type EGFR in 18 (81.8%), exon 19 mutations in 3, and exon 21 mutations (L861Q and L858R) in 3. Liquid biopsy found EGFR exon 19 deletions in 11 samples (50%), exon 21 mutations (L861Q and L858R) in 10, L861Q in 7, L8585 in 6, and wild type in 1 sample. Additionally, acquired EGFR mutations in exon 20 T790M were found in 5 samples.Conclusions: Liquid biopsy may be beneficial in patients for whom tissue biopsy cannot be performed or where tissue for molecular profiling is inadequate.

Recent studies conducted on patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) reported that high expression of C-Met was associated with poorer clinicopathological grading and outcomes. Therefore, this study aimed to further explore the downstream pathway specifically activated when the HGF/C-Met complex was formed, the interplay between C-Met and other molecules, as well as the impact on EOC when these interactions were inhibited through designated molecular targeted therapy.Methods: The search strategy using the PubMed search engine (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/) was conducted on September 21, 2022, with the keywords: “HGF/C-Met and ovarian cancer”. The search resulted in 261 articles, and they were filtered by “published in the last five years,” which yielded 67 articles. These articles then underwent further screening, resulting in 40 articles for analysis. A systematic literature review was conducted to improve the quality of this study. Approximately 150 articles were thoroughly examined and organized using a reference manager, then 15 with the greatest impact and clinical relevance to this study were selected. Results: The HGF/C-Met complex was found to stimulate signaling pathways linked to the growth of epithelial cells and also caused the phosphorylation of tyrosine residues on other tyrosine receptors. The activation of C-Met affected the downstream pathways involving molecules associated with cell proliferation and survival, such as epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), p53, and KRAS. C-Met can be combined with other tyrosine kinase inhibitors in chemotherapy to enhance the initiation of cell death (apoptosis) in cancer cells.Conclusions: The HGF/C-Met mediated a signaling cascade that played an essential role in the tumorigenesis of ovarian carcinoma and had the potential to be a targeted molecular therapy in EOC","PeriodicalId":13489,"journal":{"name":"Indonesian Journal of Cancer","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135247676","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
