Oral Etoposide for Relapsed or Refractory Ewing Sarcoma in Adolescent and Adult Patients.

Prognosis remains poor for patients with relapsed or refractory Ewing sarcoma, with limited treatment options after first-line therapy. Oral etoposide has efficacy in the paediatric setting; however, data are limited in adults. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 33 patients with relapsed or refractory Ewing sarcoma who completed at least one cycle of oral etoposide at the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre from 2005 to 2020.

Metanephrine mirage: distinguishing the phaeocopies, a case report and literature review.

Background: We present one of only seven reported cases of a catecholamine-secreting adrenal neuroblastoma in an adult. The case is used as a platform to discuss key biochemical, genomic and imaging considerations that are central to the successful, targeted management of catecholamine-secreting adrenal tumours.

Case Presentation: A 63-year-old male was urgently reviewed at a tertiary hospital endocrinology outpatient clinic for a 12 cm right-sided adrenal incidentaloma.

The Australian New Zealand Consortium in Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults Oncofertility action plan.

International and national oncofertility networks, including the US-led Oncofertility Consortium, FertiProtekt, and the Danish Network, have played pivotal roles in advancing the discipline of oncofertility over the last decade. Many other countries lack a shared approach to pediatric oncofertility health service delivery. This study aims to describe baseline oncofertility practices at Australian New Zealand Children's Haematology/Oncology Group centers in 2019-2021, describe binational priorities for care, and propose a 5-year action plan for best practice to be implemented by the newly formed Australian New Zealand Consortium in Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults (CAYA) Oncofertility (ANZCO).

Clinical Impact of Comprehensive Molecular Profiling in Adolescents and Young Adults with Sarcoma.

Sarcomas are a heterogenous group of tumours that commonly carry poor prognosis with limited therapeutic options. Adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with sarcoma are a unique and understudied patient population that have only achieved modest survival gains compared to other groups. We present our institutional experience of AYAs with sarcoma who underwent comprehensive molecular profiling (CMP) via either large-panel targeted DNA sequencing or whole genome and transcriptome sequencing and evaluated the feasibility and clinical impact of this approach.
