Breast Cancer Patient’s Outcomes after Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy and Surgery at 5 and 10 Years for Stage II-III Disease
: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer offers the possibility to facilitate breast and axillary surgery; it is a test of chemosensibility in vivo with significant prognostic value and may be used to tailor adjuvant treatment according to the response. : A retrospective single-institution cohort of 482 stage II and III breast cancer patients treated with…

Stimulator of Interferon Genes Protein (STING) Expression in Cancer Cells: A Tissue Microarray Study Evaluating More than 18,000 Tumors from 139 Different Tumor Entities
Stimulator of interferon genes protein (STING) activates the immune response in inflammatory cells. STING expression in cancer cells is less well characterized, but STING agonists are currently being evaluated as anticancer drugs. A tissue microarray containing 18,001 samples from 139 different tumor types was analyzed for STING by immunohistochemistry. STING-positive tumor cells were found in…

Is There an Added Value of Quantitative DCE-MRI by Magnetic Resonance Dispersion Imaging for Prostate Cancer Diagnosis?
In this multicenter, retrospective study, we evaluated the added value of magnetic resonance dispersion imaging (MRDI) to standard multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) for PCa detection. The study included 76 patients, including 51 with clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa), who underwent radical prostatectomy and had an mpMRI including dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI. Two radiologists performed three separate randomized…

CRISPR-Cas9 Knockout Screens Identify DNA Damage Response Pathways and BTK as Essential for Cisplatin Response in Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma
The recurrence of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) has been observed in 40% of cases. The standard of care for refractory/relapsed DLBCL (RR-DLBCL) is platinum-based treatment prior to autologous stem cell transplantation; however, the prognosis for RR-DLBCL patients remains poor. Thus, to identify genes affecting the cisplatin response in DLBCL, cisplatin-based whole-genome CRISPR-Cas9 knockout screens…

Improving Sarcoma Outcomes: Target Trial Emulation to Compare the Impact of Unplanned and Planned Resections on the Outcome
This study follows the Target Trial Emulation (TTE) framework to assess the impact of unplanned resections (UEs) and planned resections (PEs) of sarcomas on local recurrence-free survival (LRFS), metastasis-free survival (MFS), cancer-specific survival (CSS), and overall survival (OS). Sarcomas, malignant tumors with mesenchymal differentiation, present a significant clinical challenge due to their rarity, complexity, and…

Preliminary Experience in Ultra-High Frequency Ultrasound Assessment of Cutaneous Primary Lymphomas: An Innovative Classification
BACKGROUND Primary cutaneous lymphoma (PCL) is a rare form of extranodal non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma characterized by malignant lymphocytes confined to the skin. Accurate diagnosis and staging are crucial for optimal management, yet radiological literature on imaging PCL remains limited. This study aims to delineate the imaging characteristics of PCLs using high and ultra-high frequency ultrasound (UHFUS)…

The Role of Immunotherapy in the Management of Esophageal Cancer in Patients Treated with Neoadjuvant Chemoradiation: An Analysis of the National Cancer Database
BACKGROUND The current National Comprehensive Cancer Network advises neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery for locally advanced cases of esophageal cancer. The role of immunotherapy in this context is under heavy investigation. METHODS Patients with esophageal adenocarcinoma were identified in the National Cancer Database (NCDB) from 2004 to 2019. Three groups were generated as follows: (a)…
