Clinical and pathological characterization of 158 consecutive and unselected oligometastatic breast cancers in a single institution.

Purpose: Data about incidence, biological, and clinical characteristics of oligometastatic breast cancer (OMBC) are scarce. However, these data are essential in determining optimal treatment strategy. Gaining knowledge of these elements means observing and describing large, recent, and consecutive series of OMBC in their natural history.

5-fluorouracil with oxaliplatin and/or irinotecan for advanced sinonasal intestinal-type adenocarcinoma (ITAC).

Introduction: Sinonasal intestinal-type adenocarcinoma (ITAC) is a rare tumor, typically found in the ethmoid or upper nasal cavity. There is no standard systemic treatment for metastatic/locally advanced disease ineligible for upfront surgery or radiotherapy.

Methods: Patients treated between 2015 and 2021 in our institution with a fluoropyrimidine plus oxaliplatin and/or irinotecan for advanced ITAC were retrospectively assessed for overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS) and tumoral responses.
