Germline Genetic Variants of the Renin-Angiotensin System, Hypoxia and Angiogenesis in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Progression

The presence of polymorphic gene variants in the human genome provides extensive genetic (and eventually phenotypic) variation affecting both normal physiological mechanisms and cancer pathogenesis. Functional genetic polymorphisms might have predictive and/or prognostic value in lung cancer, opening novel opportunities to improve prediction and guide clinical reasoning and therapeutics in lung cancer patients.

Transcriptome Reprogramming of CD11b+ Bone Marrow Cells by Pancreatic Cancer Extracellular Vesicles

O cancro de pâncreas é a quarta principal causa de mortes relacionadas ao cancro no mundo, apresentando uma taxa de sobrevida de 5 anos de cerca de 6% e uma taxa de sobrevida média de cerca de 6 meses. Entre os cancros pancreáticos, o adenocarcinoma ductal pancreático (CP) é o tipo mais comum e é responsável por mais de 90% dos casos. Uma combinação de fatores leva ao mau prognóstico do CP, incluindo dificuldades na deteção da doença em estágio inicial, seu alto potencial metastático e sua resistência às terapias convencionais.

Association between pertuzumab-associated diarrhea/rash and survival outcomes

O cancro da mama é o cancro mais frequente no sexo feminino à escala mundial. Destes tumores, aproximadamente 15% são HER2+. Em doentes com tumores HER2+, o tratamento com anticorpos anti-HER2 melhorou substancialmente os resultados em saúde, quer em contexto precoce quer em contexto metastático. Em contexto metastático, o ensaio CLEOPATRA demonstrou melhoria da sobrevivência global para a combinação de pertuzumab, trastuzumab e docetaxel quando comparado com trastuzumab e docetaxel em doentes sem tratamento prévio em contexto metastático.
