Long-course chemoradiation plus concurrent/sequential PD-1 blockade as neoadjuvant treatment for MMR-status-unscreened locally advanced rectal cancer: protocol of a multicentre, phase 2, randomised controlled trial (the POLAR-STAR trial)
BMJ Open. 2023 Sep 12;13(9):e069499. doi: 10.1136/bmjopen-2022-069499.ABSTRACTINTRODUCTION: Recent preclinical studies have discovered unique synergism between radiotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors, which has already brought significant survival benefit in lung cancer. In locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC), neoadjuvant radiotherapy plus immune checkpoint inhibitors have also achieved surprisingly high pathological complete response (pCR) rates even in proficient mismatch-repair patients. As existing researches are all phase 2, single-cohort trials, we aim to conduct a randomised, controlled trial to further clar...

Axillary lymph node dissection versus radiotherapy in breast cancer with positive sentinel nodes after neoadjuvant therapy (ADARNAT trial)
This study will assess whether ART is non-inferior to ALND in terms of recurrence and overall survival in patients with positive SLN after NST, including whether it reduces surgery-related adverse effects.METHODS AND ANALYSES: This multicenter, randomized, open-label, phase 3 trial will enroll 1660 patients with breast cancer and positive SLNs following NST in approximately 50 Spanish centers over 3 years. Patients will be stratified by NST regimen and nodal involvement (isolated tumoral cells or micrometastasis versus macrometastasis) and randomly assigned 1:1 to ART without ALND (study arm) or ALND alone (control arm). L...

Clinical significance of regulatory T cells and T lymphocyte subsets in peripheral blood in neoadjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer
Am J Cancer Res. 2023 Jul 15;13(7):3091-3099. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTThe impact of the immune response on the therapeutical efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer remains largely unknown. To characterize the role of regulatory T cells (CD4+CD25+CD127lowTreg), T lymphocyte subsets (CD3+, CD4+, CD4+/CD8+) and NK cells in neoadjuvant chemotherapy, we investigated the correlation patterns of these immune cell subsets with the progression of breast cancer. A total of 120 breast cancer patients receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy in Nanjing Maternal and Child Health Hospital from May 2019 to November 2021 were r...

Local Excision Versus Total Mesorectal Excision After Favourable Response to Neoadjuvant Therapy in Low Rectal Cancer: a Multi-centre Experience
This study is a prospective comparative phase III study, where 46 rectal cancer patients were recruited from patients attending Oncology Centre of Mansoura University and Queen Alexandra Hospital Portsmouth University Hospital NHS with a median follow-up 36 months. The two recruited groups were as follows: group (A), 18 patients who underwent conventional radical surgery by TME; and group (B), 28 patients who underwent trans-anal endoscopic local excision. Patients of resectable low rectal cancer (below 10 cms from anal verge) with sphincter saving procedures were included: cT1-T3N0. The median operative time for LE was 12...

A Prehabilitation Program in Patients with Breast Cancer Receiving Neoadjuvant Therapy to Minimize Musculoskeletal Postoperative Complications and Enhance Recovery (PREOPtimize): A Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial
Phys Ther. 2023 Jun 15:pzad062. doi: 10.1093/ptj/pzad062. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to assess the effects of a prehabilitation program (PREOPtimize), consisting of Nordic Walking and resistance training exercises plus health education in patients with breast cancer who are receiving neoadjuvant therapy to enhance postoperative functionality of the affected arm. A secondary aim will be to compare the short-term effects of the intervention on other patient-reported outcome measures.METHODS: This will be an assessor-blind, randomized controlled trial with a parallel group design conduct...

Comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of ductal carcinoma of the submandibular gland: case report and literature review
We report a rare case of SDC of the submandibular gland. A 62-year-old man presented to our hospital with complaints of swelling in the right submaxillary area for 4 months, rapidly growing, with pain for 10 days. After admission, fine needle aspiration (FNA) revealed right submandibular gland ductal carcinoma. Considering its aggressiveness, large size, and invasion of parapharyngeal and oral floor soft tissues, the patient received two cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by extended surgical resection. Postoperatively, the patient received four cycles of concurrent chemoradiotherapy, followed by afatinib targeted...
