Inflammation‑based prognostic markers in patients with advanced or recurrent gastric cancer treated with nivolumab: Tokushukai REAl‑world Data project 02 (TREAD 02).

In addition to blood test data, inflammation-based prognostic markers have been used to predict the prognosis of various types of cancer. However, several of these previous studies may be outdated, as they were conducted prior to the widespread adoption of immune checkpoint inhibitors, leading to limited reports on their efficacy. The present study aimed to assess the accuracy of different inflammation-based prognostic markers in patients with advanced or recurrent gastric cancer undergoing nivolumab monotherapy as salvage-line chemotherapy.

Analysis of thromboembolism and prognosis in metastatic pancreatic cancer from the Tokushukai REAl‑world data project.

Cancer-associated thromboembolism (CAT), including venous thromboembolism (VTE) and arterial thromboembolism (ATE), is a frequent complication of advanced pancreatic cancer. However, reports on its incidence and clinical outcomes, especially on ATE, are limited. The present study aimed to investigate the incidence of CAT and its effects on overall survival in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer.

Inflammation‑based prognostic markers of metastatic pancreatic cancer using real‑world data in Japan: The Tokushukai REAl‑world Data (TREAD) project.

Inflammation-based prognostic markers based on a combination of blood-based parameters, including the modified Glasgow prognostic score (mGPS), have been associated with clinical outcomes in patients with various types of cancer. The present study aimed to evaluate and compare the accuracy of these previously reported markers in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer receiving first-line chemotherapy. A total of 846 patients were identified between April 2010 and March 2020 as part of a nationwide real-world study from 46 Tokushukai medical group hospitals in Japan.
