Alpha-fetoprotein–producing recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma: A case report
Alpha-fetoprotein hardly increased due to nasopharyngeal cancer. In this article, we reported a 57-year-old male nasopharyngeal carcinoma patient who had posttreatment subscapular metastasis with high serum alpha-fetoprotein but negative plasma Epstein ...

DeepMTS: Deep Multi-task Learning for Survival Prediction in Patients with Advanced Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma using Pretreatment PET/CT [PDF]
Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC) is a malignant epithelial cancer arising from the nasopharynx. Survival prediction is a major concern for NPC patients, as it provides early prognostic information to plan treatments. Recently, deep survival models based on deep learning have demonstrated the potential to outperform traditional radiomics-based survival ...

Background: Despite the development of such multiple therapeutic approaches, approximately 20% patients experience recurrence. Identification of molecular markers for stratifying the different risks of tumour recurrence and progression is considered ...

Targeting the IRAK1–S100A9 Axis Overcomes Resistance to Paclitaxel in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma
Deregulation of the IRAK1–S100A9 axis correlates with poor prognosis, contributes to chemoresistance in nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and can be targeted by pacritinib to overcome chemoresistance in nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Prediction of 5-year Progression-Free Survival in Advanced Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma with Pretreatment PET/CT using Multi-Modality Deep Learning-based Radiomics [PDF]
Objective: Deep Learning-based Radiomics (DLR) has achieved great success in medical image analysis and has been considered a replacement for conventional radiomics that relies on handcrafted features. In this study, we aimed to explore the capability of DLR for the prediction of 5-year Progression-Free Survival (PFS) in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC ...

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma [PDF]
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a tumor arising from the epithelial cells that cover the surface and line the nasopharynx. The annual incidence of NPC in the UK is 0.3 per million at age 0-14 years, and 1 to 2 per million at age 15-19 years. Incidence is higher in the Chinese and Tunisian populations.

Imaging plays an important role in the staging of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Accurate staging is necessary, as the treatment is directly dependent on stage. Clinical examination provides information on mucosal involvement but is unable to determine the deep extension or the presence of skull base invasion or intracranial spread.
