ABSTRACT Aim A novel systemic inflammatory response marker, the neutrophil × monocyte value (NM value), has been identified as a negative predictive factor for responses to chemoradiotherapy in rectal cancer. However, the clinical implications of the NM value remain unknown.

Abstract Aim Chemotherapy is given for early‐stage breast cancer; however, some patients discontinue before completing all planned cycles. This study investigated the impact of early chemotherapy discontinuation on treatment outcomes. Methods This retrospective cohort study used a target trial emulation framework to conduct a causal analysis of the all‐

Chromosomal Instability Identifies High‐Risk Patients With Early‐Stage Non‐Small Cell Lung Cancer
Chromosomal instability, as measured by fraction genome altered (FGA) from routine targeted next‐generation sequencing, identifies a high‐risk subgroup among patients with stage I–III non‐small cell lung cancer and provides prognostic information that is not captured by traditional clinical factors or tumor mutation burden. ABSTRACT Background Patients
