Profiling and targeting HER2-positive breast cancer using trastuzumab emtansine. [PDF]
PurposeThis article reviews the mechanism of action of trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1), existing clinical data relating to its use for human growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer, potential pathways of resistance, and ongoing studies ...

Tumor growth inhibition does not predict survival benefit in a clinically relevant metastasis model. Tumor local growth and systemic metastasis represent distinct biological processes. In the 4T1‐OtR model, although chemotherapy significantly suppresses primary tumor growth, it fails to prevent distant metastasis or extend overall survival.

While the event‐free survival (EFS) of children treated for acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) has improved greatly in the last decades, the EFS for patients diagnosed with ALL before the age of one is still under 50%. This outcome further decreases when infants have a rearrangement in the gene encoding histone‐lysine N‐methyltransferase 2A (KMT2A ...

Consequences of cell-to-cell P-glycoprotein transfer on acquired multidrug resistance in breast cancer: a cell population dynamics model [PDF]
Cancer is a proliferation disease affecting a genetically unstable cell population, in which molecular alterations can be somatically inherited by genetic, epigenetic or extragenetic transmission processes, leading to a cooperation of neoplastic cells ...

Abstract Aims This study aimed to develop and validate a population pharmacokinetic‐pharmacodynamic (pop‐PK‐PD) model to describe carboplatin‐induced myelosuppression in cancer patients and support dose individualization. Methods Data from 580 cancer patients treated with carboplatin at Amsterdam UMC between 2019 and 2022 were used for model ...

Functional impairment of human resident cardiac stem cells by the cardiotoxic antineoplastic agent trastuzumab [PDF]
Trastuzumab (TZM), a monoclonal antibody against the ERBB2 protein, increases survival in ERBB2-positive breast cancer patients. Its clinical use, however, is limited by cardiotoxicity. We sought to evaluate whether TZM cardiotoxicity involves inhibition

This study analyzes 148 patients (66 women and 82 men) with chronic myeloid leukemia treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors, focusing on cardiovascular adverse events. The risk assessment, performed using the HFA/ICOS score, reveals sex‐specific differences: venous thrombosis is more common in women, while arterial thrombosis predominates in men.

A polymorphism in the base excision repair gene PARP2 is associated with differential prognosis by chemotherapy among postmenopausal breast cancer patients. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Personalized therapy considering clinical and genetic patient characteristics will further improve breast cancer survival. Two widely used treatments, chemotherapy and radiotherapy, can induce oxidative DNA damage and, if not repaired, cell ...

Youngest known case of a pancreatic perivascular epithelioid cell tumor
Abstract Perivascular epithelioid cell tumors (PEComas) are a rare type of mesenchymal tumor that can arise in any part of the body. As of 2024, 37 cases of pancreatic PEComas had been reported in the literature with patients ranging in age from 17 to 74 years old.

ABSTRACT Introduction Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) after neoadjuvant treatment (NAT) is an increasing option for axillary surgery in patients responding to treatment, whether diagnosed as clinically node‐negative (cN0) or node‐positive (cN + ). This study evaluates SLNB trends in patients with NAT in a large European population.
