Randomized Open-Label Controlled Study of Cancer Vaccine OSE2101 Versus Chemotherapy in HLA-A2-positive Patients with Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer with Resistance to Immunotherapy: ATALANTE-1
CONCLUSION: In HLA-A2 positive patients with advanced NSCLC and secondary resistance to immunotherapy, OSE2101 increased survival with better safety compared to chemotherapy. Further evaluation in this population is warranted.PMID:37704166 | DOI:10.1016/j.annonc.2023.07.006

Melatonin Supplementation for Cancer-Related Fatigue in Patients With Early Stage Breast Cancer Receiving Radiotherapy: A Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Trial
CONCLUSIONS: In this double-blind placebo-controlled phase III trial, melatonin did not prevent or significantly improve fatigue and other symptoms in patients with early stage breast cancer undergoing RT. The analysis, showing little evidence of an effect, at mid-recruitment, assured early termination of the trial.PMID:37699115 | DOI:10.1093/oncolo/oyad250

The Impact of COVID19 on Treatment Practices for Patients With Early Breast Cancer: A Cross-Sectional Study From a Large Cancer Center In Italy
CONCLUSIONS: There was no evidence for major changes in the management of patients with EBC during 2019-2021 and no treatment delays were observed. Our findings suggest that more women presented with palpable nodules at diagnosis, but the stage distribution did not change over time. Validation on a larger cohort of patients is warranted to robustly assess the impact of the COVID19 pandemic on treatment practices for patients with EBC.PMID:37699107 | DOI:10.1093/oncolo/oyad255

Nine-year Follow-up of Lenalidomide Plus Rituximab as Initial Treatment for Mantle Cell Lymphoma
We report 9-year follow up of a multi-center phase 2 study of lenalidomide plus rituximab (LR) as initial treatment of MCL. The LR doublet is used as induction and maintenance until progression, with optional discontinuation after 3 years. We previously reported an overall response rate in evaluable patients of 92%, with 64% achieving a complete response. At a median follow up of 103 months, 17 (47%) of 36 evaluable patients remain in remission. The 9-year progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 51% and 66%, respectively. During maintenance, hematologic adverse events (AEs) included asymptomatic grad...

Systemic Anticancer Therapy and Thromboembolic Outcomes in Hospitalized Patients With Cancer and COVID-19
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: In this cohort study, relative risk of developing VTE was high among patients receiving TOIs and varied by the type of therapy, underlying risk factors, and demographics, such as race and ethnicity. These findings highlight the need for close monitoring and perhaps personalized thromboprophylaxis to prevent morbidity and mortality associated with COVID-19-related thromboembolism in patients with cancer.PMID:37589970 | PMC:PMC10436185 | DOI:10.1001/jamaoncol.2023.2934

Mucormycosis and Its Upsurge During COVID-19 Epidemic: An Updated Review
Curr Microbiol. 2023 Aug 17;80(10):322. doi: 10.1007/s00284-023-03430-w.ABSTRACTAlthough mucormycosis may have reached an epidemic situation during the COVID-19 pandemic, the term was much more familiar even before the COVID-19 period. The year 2020 showed an outbreak of novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) which affected millions of people all over the world. One of the noticeable complications observed to be associated with this disease is mucormycosis. It is an opportunistic infection caused by members of the Order Mucorales existing worldwide and has been commonly reported as a laboratory contaminant for a long time. However...

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Delays to Breast Cancer Surgery: Ripples or Waves?
CONCLUSION: The COVID-19 pandemic was associated with significant DTS for breast cancer but spared time to systemic therapy. Delays disproportionately impacted vulnerable and underserved patient populations. The true clinical effects of these delays may yet be realized for breast cancer patients.PMID:37526751 | DOI:10.1245/s10434-023-13878-6

Time-Related Vascular Inflammatory Response to COVID-19 Assessed by < sup > 18 < /sup > F-FDG PET/CT in Follow-Up Tumor Patients
CONCLUSION: This work firstly suggested vascular inflammation is elevated in the early post-COVID-19 phase in DLBCL cases compared with prolonged post-COVID-19 phase or controls. Increasing attention should be paid to these patients and the protection of their vascular function and complications in early COVID-19.PMID:37520665 | PMC:PMC10378463 | DOI:10.2147/JIR.S415288

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Outcomes for Patients with Lung Cancer Receiving Curative-intent Radiotherapy in the UK
CONCLUSION: This study suggests that changes to radiotherapy and chemotherapy made in response to the COVID-19 pandemic did not significantly affect distant relapse or survival. Changes to radiotherapy, namely increased hypofractionation, led to increased odds of grade ≥3 acute toxicity. These results are important, as hypofractionated treatments can help to reduce hospital attendances in the context of potential future emergency situations.PMID:37507280 | DOI:10.1016/j.clon.2023.07.005

Direct and indirect effects of COVID-19 on short-term mortality of breast cancer patients
Breast. 2023 Jul 20;71:60-62. doi: 10.1016/j.breast.2023.07.011. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWe studied the COVID-19 impact in newly-diagnosed breast cancer (7,349 patients in 2019, and 5,563 in 2020). In 2020 there were two diagnostic drops: -37.2% (March-May), -15.8% (October-December). Early-stage at presentation (76.4% vs. 74.4%, p = 0.0013), conserving surgery (71.0% vs. 67.0%, p < 0.0001), chemotherapy (86.2% vs. 53.4%, p < 0.0001), and radiotherapy (65.7% vs. 42.1%, p < 0.0001) decreased in 2020 compared to 2019. COVID-19 occurred in 250 patients (4.49%). The time-dependent COVID-19 effect was associated ...
