ABSTRACT Background Pleomorphic xanthoastrocytomas (PXAs) are rare primary central nervous system (CNS) tumors that appear heterogeneous on imaging and histology and typically cause headaches or seizures on initial presentation. Alongside high rates of favorable prognosis after surgical excision exist similarly high rates of recurrence.

ABSTRACT Background The BRAF V600E mutation is a rare genetic alteration in cholangiocarcinoma for which sequential therapy with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and BRAF/MEK inhibitors may be effective. However, the full spectrum of adverse events associated with the sequential use of these agents remains unclear. Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis

Differential influence of vemurafenib and dabrafenib on patients' lymphocytes despite similar clinical efficacy in melanoma [PDF]
In this study, we demonstrate that vemurafenib but not dabrafenib reduces peripheral lymphocyte counts in melanoma patients while both agents show similar clinical efficacy. Within the lymphocyte compartment, vemurafenib selectively decreases circulating

A considerable number of oral antitumor therapeutics (OAT) has the potential for causing pseudo‐worsening of kidney function (PW) due to inhibition of renal creatinine secretion, i.e., kidney function is unaffected, while creatinine‐based calculation of glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) erroneously indicates an impaired kidney function.

We developed three UC clusters, applicable for MIBC and NMIBC, which were validated using transcriptomic- and proteomic datasets. Publically available UC cell lines were assigned to the clusters, to have in vitro models representing each cluster. The clusters differ in molecular and biological signatures, with distinct prognostic and therapeutic ...

Cost-effectiveness analysis of pembrolizumab versus targeted therapies in advanced melanoma
Background. The modern therapies of advanced melanoma include targeted medicines for patients with BRAF mutations. Nowadays, a new perspective on immuno-oncologic medicine pembolizumab became available in Russia. Objective. Assessment of the clinical and
