Adjustment of creatinine clearance for carboplatin dosing in Calvert's formula and clinical efficacy for lung cancer
ConclusionsSerum creatinine adjustment may be associated with similar efficacy compared to the crude serum creatinine value. In older patients, the adjustment should be cautiously applied owing to the potential for reduced efficacy. (Source: Cancer Medicine)

Psoriasis induced by first ‑line pembrolizumab in metastatic non‑small cell lung cancer: A case report
Oncol Lett. 2023 Jun 2;26(1):311. doi: 10.3892/ol.2023.13897. eCollection 2023 Jul.ABSTRACTTherapeutic options for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) have changed with the introduction of immune checkpoint inhibitors. Immunotherapy is generally well tolerated, but can also be associated with severe adverse events, such as the development of new autoimmune diseases. In patients without a history of autoimmune diseases, psoriasis caused by immunotherapy treatment is rarely described in the literature. The present study describes the case of a 68-year-old man with metastatic NSCLC that started chemoimmunotherapy with carbopla...
