In this study, we aimed to evaluate the impact of baseline vitamin D level on the outcome in patients with estimated glomerular filtration rate (EGFR)-mutant advanced non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who received either gefitinib or gefitinib with chemotherapy (pemetrexed and carboplatin) as first-line therapy in a prospective randomized study.Methods:This was a post hoc analysis of a phase III randomized trial comparing gefitinib with gefitinib with carboplatin and pemetrexed in patients with advanced NSCLC with activating EGFR mutations in the first-line setting. As a part of regular practice, baseline vitamin D levels were measured using circulating 25(OH) levels in blood. We included 334 patients who had baseline vitamin D levels in the study and evaluated the effect of the vitamin D level on oncologic outcomes.Results:There were 136 (40.7%) patients with a sufficient (>20 ng/mL) baseline vitamin D level, and 198 (59.3%) patients who were deficient in vitamin D (<20 ng/mL). The median progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with normal vitamin D levels was 17 months, whereas that in patients with deficient vitamin D levels was 15 months, with a hazard ratio of 1.45 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.03-2.06). The median overall survival (OS) in patients with normal vitamin D levels was 28.6 months, whereas that in patients with deficient vitamin D levels was 28.5 months, with a hazard ratio of 1.17 (95% CI = 0.81-1.68). On multivariate analysis, only 2 factors impacted the PFS, the baseline vitamin D level, and the treatment regimen; other factors like age, sex, disease stage, and performance status did not.Conclusions:Baseline vitamin D levels have a significant impact on PFS, whereas OS is not affected by the baseline vitamin D levels on patients receiving targeted therapy for EGFR-mutant lung cancer.Trial registration:The trial was prospectively registered with the Clinical Trial Registry of India, registration number CTRI/2016/08/007149.

Multiple electronic databases, including PubMed, Science Direct, Web of Science, Scopus, and Google Scholar, were searched to analyze the relevant literature.Results:A total of 19 eligible studies comprising 2960 patients with CRC were included in this review. A comprehensive analysis of the collected literature data as well as descriptive and methodological insights is provided. Men were predominant in reviewed studies for the region, accounting for 58.6%. Overall, RAS mutation prevalence was 38.1%. Kirsten RAS Viral Oncogene Homolog (KRAS) mutations were the most common, accounting for 37.1% of cases and distributed among different exons, with the G12D mutation being the most frequent in exon 2 (23.2%) followed by G12V (13.7%), G13D (10.1%), G12C (5.1%), G12A (5.04%), and G12S (3.6%). Neuroblastoma RAS Viral Oncogene Homolog (NRAS) mutations were identified in 3.3% of tumor samples, with the most common mutation site located in exons 2, 3, and 4, and codon 61 being the most common location for the region. The total mutation frequency in the BRAF gene was 2.6%, with the V600E mutation being the most common.Conclusion:The distribution patterns of RAS and BRAF mutations among CRC patients exhibit notable variations across diverse ethnic groups. Our study sheds light on this phenomenon by demonstrating a higher prevalence of KRAS mutations in CRC patients from the Middle East, as compared with those from other regions. The identification of these mutations and geographical differences is important for personalized treatment planning and could potentially aid in the development of novel targeted therapies. The distinct distribution patterns of RAS and BRAF mutations among CRC patients across different ethnic groups, as well as the regional variability in mutation prevalence, highlight the need for further research in this area.","PeriodicalId":48591,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Medicine Insights-Oncology","volume":"67 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141146747","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, the primary tumor detected in patients with CUP plays a profound role in the diagnosis and treatment of patients. The search for the primary tumor of CUP is also one of the indications for 18F-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose-positron emission tomography and computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT). Our objective was to evaluate the role of <jats:sup>18</jats:sup>F-FDG PET/CT imaging in primary tumor detection and treatment formulation in patients with CUP.Methods:Sixty-two patients with CUP were selected from a database consisting of 18 802 cases in the Jiangsu Cancer Hospital PET/CT center from May 18, 2016 to November 18, 2022. Clinical data and changes in treatment strategies before and after PET/CT were collected.Results:A total of 42 primary tumors (42/62, 67.7%) were identified by PET/CT examination. The tumor staging of patients before conventional PET/CT imaging (such as CT/magnetic resonance imaging [MRI]/US) and after PET/CT did not change in 28 patients (28/62, 45.2%), whereas for 34 patients (34/62, 54.8%), tumor staging changed. Forty-five patients (45/62, 72.6%) had not developed treatment plans before PET/CT examination, but treatment plans were clarified after PET/CT examination. Thirteen patients (13/62, 21.0%) underwent changes in treatments before and after PET/CT examination. Among the 20 patients (20/62, 32.3%) whose primary tumors were not detected, 16 patients (16/20, 80.0%) had no treatment plans before PET/CT and the treatment plans were defined after PET/CT, 3 patients (3/20, 15.0%) changed the treatment plans before and after PET/CT, and 1 patient (1/20, 5.0%) did not change the treatment plan.Conclusions:The <jats:sup>18</jats:sup>F-FDG PET/CT plays an important role in the detection and staging of primary tumors in patients with CUP. The PET/CT findings can not only help clinicians develop appropriate treatment plans for patients with CUP but also serve as an effective approach to improve real-life treatment strategies for these patients.","PeriodicalId":48591,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Medicine Insights-Oncology","volume":"262 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140801558","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is related to the characteristics of the tumor itself, such as genome instability and mutation. The combination of various nanocarriers with tumor immunotherapy is beneficial for overcoming the shortcomings of traditional immunotherapy. Nanocarriers coated by cell membranes can extend blood circulation time, improve ability to evade immune clearance, and enhance targeting, thus significantly enhancing the efficacy of immunotherapy and showing great potential in tumor immunotherapy. This article reviews the application research progress of different types of cell membrane–modified nanocarriers in tumor immunotherapy, immunotherapy combination therapy, and tumor vaccines, and provides prospects for future research.","PeriodicalId":48591,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Medicine Insights-Oncology","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-04-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140630662","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ferroptosis holds promise as a novel strategy for cancer therapy. Epigenetic dysregulation is a hallmark of cancer, and noncoding RNAs are tightly involved in cell fate determination. Therefore, we aimed to identify a novel ferroptosis regulator from aberrantly expressed microRNAs that may serve as a novel biomarker and therapeutic target for liver cancer.Methods:The expression signature and prognostic value of miR-339 was assessed using TCGA data set. The role of miR-339/ATG7/FTH1 axis in liver cancer cells were evaluated through growth curve, colony formation, 7-AAD staining. The role of miR-339 in regulation of ferroptosis was determined by immunofluorescence staining, flow cytometry, and Elisa kits.Results:Here, we showed that miR-339 is aberrantly overexpressed in patients with liver cancer. In addition, miR-339 inhibition dramatically suppresses liver cancer progression. Furthermore, miR-339 silencing drives cell death and inhibits liver cancer progression, indicating that miR-339 may serve as a novel ferroptosis suppressor. Mechanistically, we demonstrated that miR-339 targets ATG7 to facilitate the autophagic degradation of FTH1 and prevent ferroptosis in liver cancer cells.Conclusions:We provide important evidence that the miR-339 inhibition activates of the autophagy pathway to promote ferroptosis by degrading FTH1 in liver cancer cells. We found that miR-339 regulates the balance between ferroptosis and autophagy in liver cancer cells.","PeriodicalId":48591,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Medicine Insights-Oncology","volume":"67 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140613229","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to predict the recurrence of MH-GIST within 3 years after surgery based on clinical data and preoperative Delta-CT Radiomics modeling.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical imaging data of 242 cases confirmed to have MH-GIST after surgery, including 92 cases of recurrence and 150 cases of normal. The training set and test set were established using a 7:3 ratio and time cutoff point. In the training set, multiple prediction models were established based on clinical data of MH-GIST and the changes in radiomics texture of enhanced computed tomography (CT) at different time periods (Delta-CT radiomics). The area under curve (AUC) values of each model were compared using the Delong test, and the clinical net benefit of the model was tested using decision curve analysis (DCA). Then, the model was externally validated in the test set, and a novel nomogram predicting the recurrence of MH-GIST was finally created.Results:Univariate analysis confirmed that tumor volume, tumor location, neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet lymphocyte ratio (PLR), diabetes, spicy hot pot, CT enhancement mode, and Radscore 1/2 were predictive factors for MH-GIST recurrence ( P &lt; .05). The combined model based on these above factors had significantly higher predictive performance (AUC = 0.895, 95% confidence interval [CI] = [0.839-0.937]) than the clinical data model (AUC = 0.735, 95% CI = [0.6 62-0.800]) and radiomics model (AUC = 0.842, 95% CI = [0.779-0.894]). Decision curve analysis also confirmed the higher clinical net benefit of the combined model, and the same results were validated in the test set.

This study was conducted to retrospectively evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the Node-RADS score for metastatic cervical lymph nodes on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).Methods:We retrospectively analyzed cervical lymph nodes of NPC cases. Two radiologists independently evaluated each lymph node on the MRI scans using Node-RADS. Interobserver agreement between 2 radiologists for Node-RADS score assessment was evaluated by linear weighted kappa statistics. The correlation between metastasis and the Node-RADS score of each lymph node was analyzed using multivariate regression analysis. To investigate the diagnostic performance of the Node-RADS score, we further conducted receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. Correspondently, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of each different cutoff (&gt;1, &gt;2, &gt;3, and &gt;4) were computed.Results:In all, 119 patients with NPC were assessed, including 203 cervical lymph nodes consisting of 140 (69%) of 203 metastatic and 63 (31%) of 203 benign. The kappa agreement between the 2 readers for the Node-RADS score was 0.863 (95% CI = 0.830-0.897, P &lt; .001). Node-RADS score on MRI scan was shown to be an independent predictive factor of lymph node metastasis after multivariate regression analysis (odds ratio [OR] = 6.745, 95% CI = 3.964-11.474, P &lt; .001). Node-RADS achieved an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.950 (95% CI = 0.921-0.979) in diagnosing metastatic lymph nodes.

It encompasses various subtypes and requires different treatment strategies. Doxorubicin is a commonly used anthracycline in the management of localized and metastatic STS. However, high doses of doxorubicin are associated with cardiotoxicity, which can significantly impact patients’ long-term outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate doxorubicin’s effect on cardiac function in patients with sarcoma and to correlate the frequency of cardiotoxicity with potential risk factors.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with sarcoma who were treated with doxorubicin between 2016 and 2022 at King Abdulaziz Medical City in Saudi Arabia. Patient demographic information, comorbidities, cardiac measurements, laboratory values, systemic therapy, and treatment outcomes were collected from electronic medical records. A statistical analysis was performed to assess the association between cardiotoxicity and various factors.Results:A total of 133 patients were included in the study, with a median age of 30 years. Cardiotoxicity was observed in 9% of the patients. Female patients had a significantly higher risk of developing cardiotoxicity. Patients with a higher Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status and lower troponin I levels also had an increased risk of cardiotoxicity. However, there was no significant association between cardiotoxicity and the number of chemotherapy cycles, total cumulative dose of doxorubicin, or history of radiation. Furthermore, patients with cardiotoxicity had a higher risk of mortality. The overall survival of the patients was 18 months.Conclusion:Doxorubicin-associated cardiotoxicity is a concern for patients with sarcoma. Female patients and patients with a higher ECOG performance status are at an increased risk of developing cardiotoxicity. Careful monitoring and risk assessment are crucial for mitigating the adverse effects of doxorubicin treatment in patients with sarcoma. Future studies are warranted to validate these findings and explore preventive strategies for doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity in patients with sarcoma.","PeriodicalId":48591,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Medicine Insights-Oncology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140324034","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
