Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have revolutionized the treatment landscape for metastatic breast cancer, offering targeted delivery of cytotoxic agents with improved efficacy and tolerability compared to conventional chemotherapy. This narrative review explores key predictive factors influencing the efficacy of ADCs, focusing on HER2-targeted therapies, such as trastuzumab emtansine and trastuzumab deruxtecan, as well as sacituzumab govitecan for triple-negative breast cancer. HER2 expression, TROP-2 levels, hormone receptor status, and the tumor microenvironment emerge as critical biomarkers for patient selection and therapeutic outcomes.

Introduction: This retrospective study and review aim to investigate diffuse adult gliomas in the motor cortex (primary motor area, M1, and secondary motor area, M2, which includes the supplementary motor area and premotor cortex). It explores the relationships between the histologic and molecular profiles of the lesions, their location, and the type of resection performed, and correlates them with patients' outcomes post-surgery.

Material And Methods: An Institutional retrospective review was conducted on a consecutive series of 200 selected patients with histologically confirmed Glioblastomas (GBM) treated surgically between September 2018 and February 2022.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focuses on detecting multijet signatures from proton-proton collisions at a high energy of 13 TeV, analyzing a dataset totaling 128 fb^{-1}.
  • A special data scouting method is utilized to pick out events with low combined momentum in jets.
  • This research is pioneering in its investigation of electroweak particle production in R-parity violating supersymmetric models, particularly examining hadronically decaying mass-degenerate higgsinos, and it broadens the limits on the existence of R-parity violating top squarks and gluinos.
