Concomitant Use of Ado-trastuzumab Emtansine and Imatinib in a Patient of CML and Metastatic Breast Cancer.

Imatinib is a CYP3A4 inhibitor, while ado-trastuzumab is a CYP3A4 substrate. Imatinib can interact with ado-trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) and can increase T-DM1 concentrations, leading to T-DM1-related toxicity. There is no trial or case report in the literature on the concomitant use of Imatinib and T-DM1.

Immunogenicity and safety of the CoronaVac vaccine in patients with cancer receiving active systemic therapy.

To evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of the CoronaVac vaccine in patients with cancer receiving active systemic therapy. This multicenter, prospective, observational study was conducted with 47 patients receiving active systemic therapy for cancer. CoronaVac was administered as two doses (3 μg/day) on days 0 and 28.

A Phase II Study of the Combination of Oxaliplatin, Capecitabine, and Trastuzumab and Chemoradiotherapy in the Adjuvant Setting in Operated Patients With HER2-positive Gastric or Gastroesophageal Junction Cancer (TOXAG Study): A Turkish Oncology Group Study.

Background: Trastuzumab prolonged the overall survival in patients with advanced gastric cancer with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) overexpression in combination with chemotherapy. In this phase II open-label prospective study, the tolerability and safety of trastuzumab with chemotherapy, and chemoradiotherapy for curatively resected patients with HER2-positive gastric carcinoma was investigated.

Methods: The patients with HER2-positive gastric, or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma, after gastrectomy plus D2 dissection, were included.

Clinical features of metaplastic breast carcinoma: A single-center experience.

Aim: Metaplastic breast cancer (MBC) is a rare subtype with unusual clinical features. We aimed to analyze treatment results and define patients' characteristic features in our large MBC patient series.

Materials And Methods: Fifty-six patients with early MBC who received adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) in our center were included in the study.

Does a Secure Attachment Style Predict High Psychological Resilience in Patients With Cancer Receiving Chemotherapy?

Introduction To investigate the level of psychological resilience and the impact of attachment styles on the degree of resilience to distress in patients with cancer receiving chemotherapy. Methods Patients with cancer receiving chemotherapy were included in the study. Participants were requested to complete the Relationship Scales Questionnaire (RSQ), Resilience Scale for Adults (RSA), and a personal information form during the data collection phase.

Systemic Immune-inflammation Index is the Best Prognostic Factor in Patients with Advanced Stage Adenocarcinoma of the Lung Treated with Pemetrexed.

Tolvaptan treatment in hyponatremia due to the syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH): effects on survival in patients with cancer.

Purpose: To investigate the clinical outcomes of patients with hyponatremia who received supportive treatment or tolvaptan plus supportive treatment and the effects of treatment and other variables on overall survival METHODS: This study included oncology patients who were hospitalized at two oncology centers between January 1, 2016 and December 31, 2019 for hyponatremia (sodium levels < 135 mEq/L) and who received tolvaptan plus supportive treatment (n = 22) or supportive treatment only (n = 42).

Results: The median age of all the patients was 59 years (range 26-85) and 64.1% of the patients were male.

GLASS: Global Lorlatinib for ALK(+) and ROS1(+) retrospective Study: real world data of 123 NSCLC patients.

Unlabelled: Lorlatinib is a third-generation tyrosine-kinases inhibitor (TKI) targeting ALK/ROS1 fusions. The FDA has approved lorlatinib for TKI-pretreated ALK(+) NSCLC, while its approval for ROS1(+) is still pending. Here we present the largest real-world data of NSCLC patients harboring ALK/ROS1 rearrangements treated with lorlatinib.

Prognostic Importance of Metastatic Site in Intermediate-risk Group Metastatic Renal Cell Cancer Treated with Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors.

Objective: To determine the prognostic importance of the metastatic site in metastatic renal cell cancer (mRCC) patients in the International Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Database Consortium (IMDC) intermediate-risk.

Study Design: Observational study.

Place And Duration Of Study: Department of Medical Oncology, Dr Abdurrahman Yurtaslan Oncology Training and Research Hospital, Ankara, Turkey, from January 2010 to November 2018.

A case of pelvic giant cell tumor of bone, complete remission with denosumab: long duration of response.

Although giant cell tumor of bone has been considered as a disease with benign course, it can lead to bone destruction and serious morbidity. A 19-year-old case was presented with hip pain. There was a recurrence after 9 months of curative surgical resection and zoledronic acid use, and as surgical morbidity would be high, antiosteoclastic receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand inhibitor denosumab treatment was administered.
