Cytoreduction and HIPEC in the treatment of "unconventional" secondary peritoneal carcinomatosis [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Peritoneal metastasis (PM) is considered a terminal and incurable disease. In the last 30 years, cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) radically changed the therapeutic approach for these patients ...

Combating cancer immunotherapy resistance: a nano‐medicine perspective
Abstract Cancer immunotherapy offers renewed hope for treating this disease. However, cancer cells possess inherent mechanisms that enable them to circumvent each stage of the immune cycle, thereby evading anti‐cancer immunity and leading to resistance.

Advanced gynecologic malignancies treated with a combination of the VEGF inhibitor bevacizumab and the mTOR inhibitor temsirolimus. [PDF]
BackgroundBevacizumab and temsirolimus are active agents in gynecologic tumors. Temsirolimus attenuates upregulation of HIF-1α levels, a resistance mechanism for antiangiogenics, and targets the PI3-kinase/AKT/mTOR axis, commonly aberrant in these tumors.

Targeting MAN1B1 potently enhances bladder cancer antitumor immunity via deglycosylation of CD47
Abstract Background Only a few bladder cancer patients benefit from anti‐programmed cell death protein 1/programmed cell death ligand 1 immunotherapy. The cluster of differentiation 47 (CD47) plays an important role in tumor immune evasion. CD47 is a highly glycosylated protein, however, the mechanisms governing CD47 glycosylation and its potential ...

Telomere loss limits the rate of human epithelial tumor formation [PDF]
Most human carcinomas exhibit telomere abnormalities early in the carcinogenesis process suggesting that crisis caused by telomere shortening may be a necessary event leading to human carcinomas. Epidemiological records of the age at which each patient in a population develops carcinoma are known as age-incidence data; these provide a quantitative ...

Low-Grade Appendiceal Mucinous Neoplasm Involving the Endometrium and Presenting with Mucinous Vaginal Discharge. [PDF]
Primary appendiceal mucinous lesions are uncommon and represent a spectrum from nonneoplastic mucous retention cysts to invasive adenocarcinoma. Low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasms (LAMNs) represent an intermediate category on this spectrum and can ...

ABSTRACT Mutations in the DNA polymerase epsilon (POLE) gene are associated with an increased risk of various malignancies, including colorectal and other gastrointestinal, endometrial, ovarian, breast, and brain cancers. In extremely rare cases, POLE mutations have also been associated with pancreatic and hepatobiliary carcinomas.
