1084 Background: The combination of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors and immune-checkpoint inhibitors demonstrated synergistic antitumor activity in preclinical studies. Here we report the efficacy, safety, and biomarker analyses of the combination of niraparib and PD-1 inhibitor HX008 in metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients with germline...

NF-κB signaling has been discovered for nearly 40 years. Initially, NF-κB signaling was identified as a pivotal pathway in mediating inflammatory responses. However, with extensive and in-depth investigations, researchers have discovered that its role can be expanded to a variety of signaling mechanisms, biological processes, human diseases, and tr...

Background Chidamide is a selective histone deacetylase inhibitor approved for patients with hormone receptor (HoR)‐positive and HER2‐negative metastatic breast cancer (MBC). We aimed to investigate the efficacy, safety, and treatment patterns of chidamide and identify clinicopathological factors that predict the efficacy of chidamide in real‐world...

To investigate potential differences in pathological complete response (pCR) rates and overall survival (OS) between HER2-low and HER2-zero patients with early-stage hormone receptor (HR)-positive and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), in the neoadjuvant chemotherapy setting. We identified early-stage invasive HER2-negative BC patients who recei...

Background With the largest sample size to date, the authors’ objective was to investigate the incidence of primary‐to‐metastatic human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2) conversion and the predictors for such conversion. Moreover, no previous studies have evaluated the prognosis of patients who have negative HER2 expression (HER2‐0) versus low HER2...

Purpose To investigate potential differences in pathological complete response (pCR) rates and overall survival (OS) between HER2-low and HER2-zero patients with early-stage hormone receptor (HR)-positive and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), in the neoadjuvant chemotherapy setting. Methods We identified early-stage invasive HER2-negative BC p...

ER, PgR and HER‐2 status are the cornerstones of choosing systemic therapy for breast cancer, but can change during the disease course. Guidelines recommended the biopsy of the metastatic tumor to reassess receptor status. Bone is the most frequent metastatic site of breast cancer but remained technically difficult to biopsy. Our study aimed to eva...

Background Breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease, and the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) expression may vary considerably between primary and metastatic lesions, or even within a single lesion. Repeated biopsies cannot always be performed. In this feasibility trial, we assessed whether a novel ⁶⁸Ga-NOTA-MAL-MZHER2 (⁶⁸Ga-HER2) af...

Background 99m Technetium labeled methylene diphosphonate bone scans (BSs) are commonly used to monitor disease progression in bone for patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC). However, new BS lesions may represent osteoblastic bone healing, which we now define as bone pseudoprogression. In this study, we aimed to assess the clinical significa...

Background: Cancer of unknown primary (CUP) has a variable prognosis and lacks any standard staging systems. We aim to improve the prediction of survival in patients with CUP by constructing a nomogram based on a real-world, population analysis. Methods: We performed a population analysis of patients diagnosed with CUP between 2010 and 2016 in t...

Background: The combination of CDK4/6 inhibitors and endocrine therapy has greatly improved progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with hormone receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative metastatic breast cancer in many randomized controlled trials (RCTs). However, the key issue was the extent to which the bene...

Background: Patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC) frequently experience brain metastasis. This study aimed to identify prognostic factors and construct a nomogram for predicting brain metastasis possibility and brain screening benefit in mTNBC patients. Methods: Patients with mTNBC treated at our institution between Janu...

Purpose Cisplatin, an effective medication for metastatic breast cancer (MBC), is recommended to be applied at the dose of 75 mg/m² on day 1 every 3 weeks. However, the 75 mg/m² schedule is often associated with a variety of side effects (such as vomiting and kidney toxicity), and time-consuming hydration treatment is usually needed. Divided dose (...

We describe a case of an intradural extramedullary inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor of the cervical spine. A 56-year-old woman presented with progressive neck pain, radiating to the right scapula, without any neurologic deficit. Magnetic resonance imaging showed an intradural extramedullary tumor with a dural tail sign, located at the C3–T1 segme...

Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the infection‐related cancers. Helicobacter pylori and Epstein‐Barr virus (EBV) were established risk factors for GC. Recently, there are several reports showing the inconsistent association between hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and the development of GC. To explore the relationship between HBV infection and the de...

Background: Positron emission tomography (PET) and PET/computed tomography (PET/CT) imaging with 3,4-dihydroxy-6-[18F] fluoro-L-phenylalanine (18F-FDOPA) has been used in the evaluation of gliomas. We performed a meta-analysis to obtain the diagnostic and grading accuracy of 18F-FDOPA PET and PET/CT in patients with gliomas. Methods: PubMed, Emb...
