Naturally derived biomembrane nanostructures by mimicking evolutionarily optimized biological architectures could effectively suppress tumor growth and have emerged as a compelling strategy in translational biomedicine. This review provides a systematic overview of rational design and underlying antitumor therapeutic mechanisms of mammalian cells ...

This multi‐institutional, randomized, phase II trial aimed to investigate the long‐term survival outcomes of two versus three courses of DCF for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). The 5‐year overall survival and progression‐free survival rates for the three and two course groups were 70.7% vs. 63.8% (hazard ratio (HR) = 0.91, p

Right Cardiac Intracavitary Metastases from a Primary Intracranial Myxofibrosarcoma [PDF]
Primary intracranial myxofibrosarcoma is exceedingly rare, with less than 10 cases published. We present a case of a 23-year-old man with previous history of a primary low grade myxofibrosarcoma of the left parietal-occipital convexity resected in March ...
