Gefitinib-induced Myositis: A Novel Case Report
Yakugaku Zasshi. 2023;143(7):617-620. doi: 10.1248/yakushi.23-00007.ABSTRACTChemotherapy-induced myositis is a severe adverse event caused by chemotherapeutic agents such as immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) or cytotoxic agents. We experienced a patient with gefitinib-induced myositis with symptoms of muscle cramps and stiffness in the limbs, and reported the treatment process. A 70-year-old woman received four courses of carboplatin (CBDCA)+pemetrexed (PEM)+gefitinib (intravenous CBDCA area under the curve (AUC) 5 and PEM 500 mg/m2, every 3 weeks, and oral gefitinib 250 mg daily), for epidermal growth factor receptor (E...

VEGFR2 and CD34 expression associated with longer survival in patients with pleural mesothelioma in the IFCT-GFPC-0701 MAPS phase 3 trial
Pleural mesothelioma (PM) is a rare but aggressive cancer with poor prognosis, primarily caused by asbestos occupational exposure [1]. PM ’s earliest event and hallmark is the increased expression of proteins involved in neo-angiogenesis. Expression of multiple proangiogenic cytokines, including vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), has been shown to correlate with increased microvasculature vessel density (MVD) [2]. High serum VEGF concentrations correlated with worse prognosis in PM patients accrued to the phase 3 Mesothelioma Avastin Cisplatin Pemetrexed Study (MAPS), which assessed bevacizumab combined with chem...
