Brentuximab vedotin as monotherapy for unresectable breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma

Abstract:
BI-ALCL is a rare CD30+ T-cell malignancy, which is known to complicate textured breast implants. The CD30-targeting immunoconjugate, brentuximab vedotin, has been suggested for invasive BI-ALCL; however, its efficacy for unresectable BI-ALCL has not been demonstrated. We present a case of unresectable BI-ALCL, which was successfully treated with brentuximab vedotin.

Water
The polarity of the water molecule and its resulting hydrogen bonding makes water a unique substance with special properties that are intimately tied to the processes of life. Life originally evolved in an aqueous environment, and most of an organism’s cellular chemistry and metabolism occur inside the aqueous contents of the cell’s cytoplasm. Special properties of water are its high heat capacity...
