Treatment of Basal Cell Carcinoma with Vismodegib [PDF]
The most prevalent nonmelanoma skin cancers are basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and locally advanced basal cell carcinoma (aBCC). Current, effective first-line treatments for BCC aim to remove and destroy cancerous skin cells through excision surgery, Mohs ...

A Phase 1b Study of Vismodegib with Pirfenidone in Patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
Introduction Components of the hedgehog signaling pathway are upregulated in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Vismodegib, a small-molecule inhibitor of hedgehog signaling, when used in combination with currently available antifibrotic ...

Resource level‐based recommendations on practical diagnostic strategies for medulloblastomas and other CNS embryonal tumors are provided. Abstract WHO CNS5 mandates integrated histo‐molecular classification of medulloblastomas (MBs) and other CNS embryonal tumors. However, advanced molecular diagnostics remain inaccessible in many low‐ and lower‐middle‐
