Panitumumab-Induced Periorbital Dermatitis: A Case Report
Clin Cosmet Investig Dermatol. 2024 Apr 3;17:763-767. doi: 10.2147/CCID.S459067. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTPanitumumab is a recombinant, fully humanized immunoglobulin G2 monoclonal antibody targeting the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). It is approved for the first- and second-line treatment of advanced wild-type KRAS colorectal cancer. Although common cutaneous side effects include acneiform dermatitis, folliculitis, and xerosis, ocular toxicities have occasionally been reported. Herein, we report the case of an 81-year-old Thai female with chemorefractory advanced stage sigmoid colon cancer who developed isolated...

Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLatin American populations, characterized by intricate admixture patterns resulting from the intermingling of ancestries from European, Native American (NA) Asian, and African ancestries which result in a vast and complex genetic landscape, harboring unique combinations of novel variants. This genetic diversity not only poses challenges in traditional population genetics methods but also opens avenues for a deeper understanding of its implications in health. In cancer, the interplay between genetic ancestry, lifestyle factors, and...

Role of targeting ferroptosis as a component of combination therapy in combating drug resistance in colorectal cancer
World J Clin Oncol. 2024 Mar 24;15(3):375-377. doi: 10.5306/wjco.v15.i3.375.ABSTRACTColorectal cancer (CRC) is a form of cancer that is often resistant to chemotherapy, targeted therapy, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy due to its genomic instability and inflammatory tumor microenvironment. Ferroptosis, a type of non-apoptotic cell death, is characterized by the accumulation of iron and the oxidation of lipids. Studies have revealed that the levels of reactive oxygen species and glutathione in CRC cells are significantly lower than those in healthy colon cells. Erastin has emerged as a promising candidate for CRC treatment ...
