Introduction: Pralsetinib is a RET inhibitor found to have antitumor activity in advanced, metastatic, fusion-positive NSCLC.
Objective: To assess real-world efficacy of pralsetinib and treatment sequences in patients with RET fusion-positive NSCLC.
Design: Retrospective study of consecutive patients enrolled in the French expanded-access program for pralsetinib from December 1, 2019, to December 31, 2021.
Objective: Treatment of high-grade serous ovarian carcinomas relies on surgery and chemotherapy, potentially followed by bevacizumab and/or poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi). The modeled CA-125 ELIMination rate constant K (KELIM) is a pragmatic indicator of tumor primary chemosensitivity. Although it is well established that mutations are associated with platinum sensitivity, the relationship between status and KELIM score has yet to be elucidated.

Whether these improvements translate into the clinic setting has not been studied yet. We retrospectively analyzed all patients consecutively treated at Institute Curie for metastatic lung cancer.

Diagnostic reproducibility for this tumor type is currently suboptimal and could be improved by a better understanding of its histomolecular and clinical heterogeneity. We have analyzed the relationship between the presence, type, or position of CDH1 mutations, E-cadherin expression, and clinicopathological features (including outcome) in a retrospective series of 251 primary ILC with a long follow-up (median: 9.

We aimed to describe and compare its clinical presentation and behaviour in children and young adults to determine whether the same therapeutic strategy should be addressed for both populations.
Methods: National retrospective multicentre study of children (0-18 years) vs.
