Identification and validation of novel prognostic markers in Renal Cell Carcinoma.
Authors: Rabjerg M
Abstract
Kidney cancer (Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC)) is one of the most deadly malignancies due to frequent late diagnosis and poor treatment options. Histologically, RCC embraces a wide variety of different subtypes with the clear cell variant (ccRCC) being the most common, accounting for 75-90% of all RCCs. At present, the surveillance protocols for follow-up of RCC patients after radical nephrectomy are based on the American Joint Committee on Cancers (AJCC) pathological tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) classification system. Other comprehensive staging modalities have emerged and have been implemen...

Skin autoimmunity might be associated with increased efficacy of atezolizumab in metastatic urothelial carcinoma: a case report.
We present a case of a 61-year-old man with metastatic urothelial carcinoma of the right ureter and urinary bladder. After gemcitabine/cisplatin as the first-line chemotherapy and surgery, the patient received atezolizumab 1200 mg i.v. q3w. Following the first atezolizumab administration, he noted vitiligo periorally, on his hands, legs, and the scalp. The patient's overall survival (OS) of >26 months and continuing response to atezolizumab treatment is considerably better than median OS in the SAUL study of 8.7 months (IMvigor211-like patients' OS 10.0 months). This case indicates that increased efficacy of atezolizuma...

The relationship between NTCP gene varieties and the progress of liver disease after HBV infection: an updated systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Rs2296651 polymorphism (A allele) may protect HBV infection and the progress of HBV-related disease (HBV-related HCC). And future researches about other single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs4646287, rs7154439, rs4646295, rs4646296) of NTCP may be needed to clarify the relationship of NTCP gene variety with HBV infection and HBV-related disease.PMID:35398032 | DOI:10.1016/j.amjms.2022.03.014
