  • ||||||||||  Journal:  A fresh perspective on advances in pancreatic cancer treatment over the past two decades (Pubmed Central) -  Jul 3, 2024   
    In the past two decades, significant advances have been made in the treatment of pancreatic cancer.Numerous first-line treatments, such as gemcitabine combined with erlotinib, gemcitabine combined with albumin-bound paclitaxel, FOLFIRINOX, and NALIRIFOX, have emerged;surgery-centered treatment has gradually become the mains clinical strategy.However, behind these achievements, the new drugs developed with substantial funding have not extended the median survival time of patients with advanced pancreatic cancer to more than one year; the 5-year survival rate for postoperative patients remains below 30%. While harboring hope and being proactive, researchers must also soberly reflect and continually reassess our direction, in anticipation of bringing tangible clinical benefits to pancreatic cancer patients at an early date.

    Journal:  Direct Visualization of a Cesarean Scar Ectopic Pregnancy After Medical Management. (Pubmed Central) -  Jul 3, 2024   
    Following the diagnosis, she was treated by multi-dose systemic methotrexate-leucovorin and with ultrasound-guided intra-gestational sac injection of potassium chloride...CONCLUSIONS Direct visualization of the intra-abdominal cavity and intra-uterine cavity showed that combined medical management with systemic methotrexate and local potassium chloride injection is an effective treatment modality for live cesarean scar ectopic pregnancies, with minimal anatomical harm. Hysteroscopic resection offers a safe and effective approach for removal of persistence of residual tissue.

    Clinical, Retrospective data, Journal:  PD-L1 inhibitor versus PD-1 inhibitor plus bevacizumab with transvascular intervention in unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma. (Pubmed Central) -  Jun 28, 2024   
    Both atezolizumab (a PD-L1 inhibitor) plus bevacizumab (A+B) and sintilimab (a PD-1 inhibitor) plus bevacizumab (S+B) are recommended as the first-line regimen for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in China...No significant differences were observed in grade 3-4 TRAEs between groups. Either PD-L1 or PD-1 inhibitor plus bevacizumab combined with TACE-HAIC have similarly excellent therapeutic efficacy with manageable adverse events, representing promising treatment options for uHCC.

    Also, NLR was correlated with XP, and the higher the value of NLR, the higher the in vitro inhibition of XP. TRG 1-2 was associated with less advanced ypT and ypN stage and better DFS compared to TRG 3-5 patients, without a significant impact on OS.

    Background/Objectives: The survival rate of patients with pancreatic cancer (PC) has improved gradually since the introduction of FOLFIRINOX (FFX) and gemcitabine + albumin-bound paclitaxel (GnP) regimens...As initial palliative chemotherapy, 3823 patients (25.90%) received gemcitabine alone; 2779 (18.83%) received gemcitabine + erlotinib; 1948 (13.20%) received FFX; and 1767 (11.97%) received GnP...Radiation therapy (aHR, 0.667; 95% CI, 0.612-0.728) and second-line chemotherapy (aHR, 0.639; 95% CI, 0.597-0.684) were significantly associated with improved survival. Our study found that first-line chemotherapy with FFX was associated with significantly longer survival than the other regimens, although caution is needed in interpreting the results.

    Journal:  Erk Inhibition as a Promising Therapeutic Strategy for High IL-8-Secreting and Low SPTAN1-Expressing Colorectal Cancer. (Pubmed Central) -  Jun 19, 2024   
    The inhibition of ERK by U0126 led to a significant reduction in IL-8 secretion, and the combination therapy of U0126 with FOLFOX optimizes the response of corresponding cancer cell lines. Therefore, we hypothesize that the combination therapy of FOLFOX and U0126 may have great potential to improve drug efficacy on this subgroup of CRCs, showing decreased MLH1 and SPTAN1 accompanied with high serum IL-8 in affected patients.

    Observational data, Journal:  Pathological Complete Response in Patients With Resected Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma After Preoperative Chemotherapy. (Pubmed Central) -  Jun 18, 2024   
    Although pCR does not reflect cure, it is associated with improved OS, with a doubled 5-year OS of 63% compared with 30% in patients without pCR. Factors associated with pCR related to preoperative chemo(radio)therapy regimens and anatomical and biological disease response features may have implications for treatment strategies that require validation in prospective studies because they may not universally apply to all patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

    This study demonstrates that in patients who undergo surgical resection after receipt of long-duration neoadjuvant FOLFIRINOX therapy alone, survival outcomes are similar regardless of pretreatment resectability status and that favorable surgical outcomes can be attained. We identified a CAF marker combination that indicates treatment resistance to FOLFOX plus bevacizumab in patients with mCRC within 100 days prior to radiologic progress.
