Background:
The TOP2A and ERBB2 genes are co-amplified in about 40% of HER2 positive (HER2+) breast cancers. Oral etoposide (VP16), an inhibitor of topoisomerase-II (encoded by TOP2A), has demonstrated clinical activity in metastatic breast cancer (MBC). The benefit of oral VP16 combined with trastuzumab (VP16-T) in HER2+ MBC has not yet been eval...
BACKGROUND: The use of two anti-HER2 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) (pertuzumab and trastuzumab) combined with taxanes is the standard of care for first line treatment in HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer (mBC). Infusion related reactions (IRR) during first administration of anti-HER2 mAb have been reported. Reintroduction of the causal drugs is...

BACKGROUND: Although no survival benefit has been demonstrated by treating early breast cancer (BC) with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC), it is now widely accepted as first intention strategy in triple negative and -positive BC. However, the benefit of the neoadjuvant strategy is controversial in luminal tumours. The latter are considered as poor re...
INTRODUCTION: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is increasingly being used for locally advanced breast cancers (BCs) or aggressive BC tumors. However, no survival benefit of the neoadjuvant approach over receiving chemotherapy in the adjuvant setting has been proven so far in -positive early breast cancer (BC) patients. The objective of this study was...
Background:
The occurrence of severe, acute limiting toxicity in patients receiving anti-programmed cell death receptor-1 monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, is largely unpredictable. Sarcopenia was found to be associated with anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 acute toxicity. We explore the clinical and pharmacological paramet...
Background:
The 18-gene tumor inflammation signature (TIS) is a clinical research assay that enriches for clinical benefit to immune checkpoint blockade. We evaluated its ability to predict clinical benefit of immunotherapy in cancer patients treated with PD-1 checkpoint inhibitors in routine clinical care.

Introduction: Sunitinib, a potent multi-tyrosine kinase (TK) inhibitor, is a standard first-line treatment for metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). In addition to its antiangiogenic activity, sunitinib is known to have immune-modulating properties especially on regulatory T-cells and tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes. However, data is sparse about...
Background:
Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNST) are a rare subtype of soft tissue sarcoma. They can arise in irradiated fields, in patients with type 1 neurofibromatosis (NF1), or sporadically. MPNST exhibit an aggressive behaviour, and their optimal management remains controversial. An unsolved issue is whether NF1-related and sporad...
The TAT (Targeted Anticancer Therapies) Congress Conference was held in Paris, March 2–4 2015. Once again immunotherapy had the place of honor with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors, CSF-1 receptor inhibitor, adoptive immunotherapy, and development of combinations. The challenge is to identify the patients who could best respond to the immunotherapies. Among o...
Background:
Sunitinib is a protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) inhibitor that has immune-modulating properties. In this context, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), mainly constituted by lymphocytes, could be a perfect surrogate tissue for identifying and assaying pharmacodynamic biomarkers of sunitinib. In this study, we investigated the changes...

... Twenty million new cases of cancer are diagnosed each year, and ten million people die from it. Women account for nine million of these cases and 4.4 million deaths globally each year [1]. According to the World Health Organization, breast cancer will be the most prevalent and deadly cancer in women in 2020, accounting for more than two million new cases and 684,996 deaths annually. ...
... A number of studies are also currently evaluating PARPi in the maintenance therapy of endometrial cancer. In particular, ROCSAN is a multicenter, randomized, open-label, integrated phase 2/3 study comparing the efficacy of niraparib or niraparib plus dostarlimab vs. chemotherapy for the treatment of endometrial/ovarian carcinosarcoma after at least one line of platinum-based chemotherapy [299]. After the phase 2, patients with recurrent or progressing endometrial or ovarian cancer, following at least a first line of platinum-based chemotherapy, are being randomized to receive either niraparib as monotherapy or niraparib in combination with dostarlimab or standard chemotherapy (paclitaxel, doxorubicine, gemcitabine, and topotecan). ...
... A recent pooled analysis of data from 7 clinical trials demonstrated consistent PFS benefits across many clinicopathological subgroups of interest and reaffirmed the addition of CDK4/6 inhibitors to ET in the first and second lines of therapy for HR+/HER2− MBC [17]. Several observational studies published in recent years have assessed utilization patterns of CDK4/6 inhibitors overall and/or by therapy line [18][19][20][21]. However, it remains unknown whether the introduction of CDK4/6 inhibitors has resulted in achieving the therapeutic goal of delaying chemotherapy initiation. ...

The risk of hospitalization and death with metabolic associated/nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (MAFLD/NAFLD) severity [301][302][303][304][305][306][307][308], ICU [291,308], MV [291], death [309] ICU [307], death [291,[308][309][310] alcohol-related liver disease (ALD) death [299,310] severity [299] immune-mediated inflammatory disease (IMID)/autoimmune disease hospitalization [311], severity [312] severity [313,314], MV [315], death [313][314][315][316][317] rheumatoid arthritis (RA) hospitalization [288], severity [201,290], death [280,281,288] severity [318,319], ICU [319], MV [319], death [201,318,319] immunosuppression hospitalization [320,321], severity [322], ICU [323], death [13,280,281,321,[324][325][326] hospitalization [320,321], severity [327], MV [315], death [315,321,323,326] organ transplant hospitalization [328], severity [269,329], ICU [323,330], death [201,280,281,329,331] severity [332,333], death [323,330,[334][335][336][337] asplenia death [281] death [280,281,338] cognitive disorder severity [339], death [ COVID-19 have both been associated with cancer [201,208,209,395]. Hematologic [280,281,395,396] and lung cancers [397], and cancers with advanced/metastatic stages [397,398] may have the strongest effect. In addition to the direct effects of cancer, anticancer therapy (chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiotherapy) might also influence COVID-19 outcomes [394]. ...
... There are only three studies covering patients with breast cancer [15][16][17]. Previous studies have shown that the mortality rate is lower in patients with breast cancer [15]. ...
... Another topic yet to be clarified is the actual relationship between COVID-19 and breast cancer in order to define the level of patients' risk and include it in decision making. The existing literature suggests that breast cancer per se is not a major contributor to COVID-19 mortality, nor is its treatment, and COVID-19 infection outcomes in these patients are mostly affected by patient's comorbidities [7,14,30]. Thus, it would be reasonable to redefine the existing modifications or the population that they concern, considering their application only for high-risk patients. ...
... 21 There is a variation in studies on the mortality rate of this population from 18% to 61%. 22,30 Metastatic neoplasms proportionally increase this statistic. Studies still cite that there is a difficulty in isolating the factor that leads to the prognosis of patients with cancer with COVID-19, since many have advanced neoplasms, not only being SAR-CoV-2 infection a factor for a poor prognosis, but an additional factor to the neoplasia accompanied. ...
... Absolute numbers of circulating neutrophils are commonly elevated in cancers generally, where higher numbers are associated with shorter survival [13,[54][55][56][57]. Several recent reviews together make a strong empirical case for important growth promotion by neutrophils in the common cancers [13,[57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64][65]. However, in addition to the relative numbers to lymphocytes, the NLR seems to be determinative even in presence of non-elevated absolute neutrophil numbers. ...
... In our statistical analysis, sarcopenia was not a significant factor for predicting irAEs, which was similar to our previous report (40) and other studies (16,18,27). However, previous study found that patients with sarcopenia experienced significantly increased risk of irAEs (22,41). It is generally believed that sarcopenia has been associated with a greater incidence of chemotherapy toxicity, but the impact of sarcopenia on irAEs remains controversial. ...
... For the study of TIME signatures, four signatures of (1) IFN-γ signature; (2) GEP score; (3) T cell markers; (4) Chemokines were achieved using a specific set of genes (Supplemental Table 2) with relevant biological function, respectively [23,24]. The GEP score was calculated as a weighted linear average of the constituent genes while the remaining signatures were calculated as the arithmetic means of the corresponding gene [23]. ...
