Frontline primary tumor resection in metastatic breast cancer patients may be non- inferior to systemic treatment: A retrospective study.
ABSTRACT Background: Primary tumor resection in metastatic breast cancer (MBC) remains a palliative procedure. Its impact as an upfront option on survival is debatable. No data from our locality addressed this issue; we conducted this retrospective study to ex- plore its benefit as regards time-to-progression and/or time-to-death. Methods: Data of patients’ medical records used between 2010 through 2015 from Sohag ... Read more

New insights inside the interdigitating dendritic cell sarcoma—pooled analysis and review of literature
Abstract Interdigitating dendritic cell sarcoma is a rare haematological neoplasm with high debatable management protocols. The data extracted from 127 case reports published between 1981 and 2018 were analysed. The median age at diagnosis was 58 years with a male to female ratio of 1.65:1. The median OS and PFS of IDCS were 12 and 6 months, respectively, with a ... Read more

59 years old male with local advanced adenoid cystic carcinoma of the hypopharynx – A case report and a review of the literature
Minor Salivary Gland tumours are rare, representing 2% of the head and neck tumours and less than 1% of hypopharyngeal cancers. The most common subtype of minor salivary gland tumours is adenoid cystic car- cinoma. Although there are several case reports discussed it, there are only two reports discussing hypo- pharyngeal presentation in the literature, and they were treated by ... Read more

Efficacy of Nilotinib versus Imatinib in Philadelphia Positive Patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia in Early Chronic Phase Who Have a Warning Molecular Response to Imatinib
Background and Objectives: Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) accounts for approximately 15% of newly diagnosed cases of leukemia in adults. In this study, the efficacy of nilotinib at 400 mg BID is compared with imatinib at 400 mg BID in CML patients with suboptimal molecular response after at least 12 months of daily dose 400 mg of imatinib therapy. Patients and ... Read more

TMEM158 and FBLP1 as novel marker genes of cisplatin sensitivity in non-small cell lung cancer cells
ABSTRACT Even after development of molecular targeting therapies, platinum-based chemotherapy is still a standard care for treatment of locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). So far, critical molecular markers capable to predict the therapeutic response in NSCLC patients remain undetermined. We here attempted to identify novel biomarker genes for cisplatin (CDDP) for a tailored therapy. Initial screening to explorer ... Read more
