Visceral Leishmaniasis Following A+AVD Treatment in a Patient with Classical Hodgkin's Lymphoma: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

We present the case of a 43-year-old Caucasian man who developed visceral leishmaniasis (VL) following treatment with a combination of brentuximab vedotin and doxorubicin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (A+AVD) for advanced-stage classical Hodgkin's lymphoma (cHL). The patient initially showed a favorable response to the treatment, but shortly after completing six cycles, he experienced recurrent fever, splenomegaly, and severe anemia. Extensive infectious disease evaluations led to a diagnosis of VL, confirmed by PCR testing.

Redetermination of PD-L1 expression after chemio-radiation in locally advanced PDL1 negative NSCLC patients: retrospective multicentric analysis.

Background: Chemoradiation therapy (CRT) is the treatment of choice for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC). Several clinical trials that combine programmed cell death 1 (PD1) axis inhibitors with radiotherapy are in development for patients with LA-NSCLC. However, the effect of CRT on tumor cells programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1) expression is unknown.

Therapeutic Outcomes and Clinical Features of Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Carrying KRAS Mutations: A Multicenter Real-life Retrospective Study.

Introduction: Targeting Kirsten Rat Sarcoma (KRAS) has been deemed impossible for long time, but new drugs have recently demonstrated promising results. Evidence on the outcome of KRAS-mutant advanced-NSCLC treated with new standard regimens are still scarce. Thus, we aimed at assessing the incidence and clinical impact of KRAS mutations in a real-life population of advanced-NSCLC, exploring the prognostic significance of distinct alterations.
