Long-Term 5-Year Response to Pembrolizumab, Bevacizumab, and Capecitabine Regimen in a Metastatic Colon Cancer Patient with MSI-High and KRAS Mutation: Case Report.

With an estimated 1.88 million new cases and 0.92 million deaths in 2020, colorectal cancer accounts for nearly one-tenth of all new cancer and cancer-related deaths worldwide.

Hypo-fractionated accelerated radiotherapy with concurrent and maintenance temozolomide in newly diagnosed glioblastoma: updated results from phase II HART-GBM trial.

Background: Glioblastoma (GBM) patients have poor survival outcomes despite treatment advances and most recurrences occur within the radiation field. Survival outcomes after dose escalation through hypofractionated accelerated RT(HART) were evaluated in this study. We previously reported the study's initial results showing similar survival outcomes with acceptable toxicities.

Navigating patient journey in early diagnosis of lung cancer in India.

Lung cancer (LC) is one of the leading causes of cancer deaths worldwide. In India, the incidence of LC is increasing rapidly, and a majority of the patients are diagnosed at advanced stages of the disease when treatment is less likely to be effective. Recent therapeutic developments have significantly improved survival outcomes in patients with LC.

Evolving multidisciplinary treatment of squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck in India.

In this article, we highlight the evolution of a multimodal approach in the overall management of squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) in India; present advances in technology (newer surgical techniques), novel medical and radiotherapy (RT) approaches; review their roles for an integrated approach for treating SCCHN and discuss the current role of immunotherapy in SCCHN. For locally advanced (LA) SCCHN, the multidisciplinary approach includes surgery followed by RT, with or without chemotherapy (CT) or concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Improved surgical techniques of reconstruction and voice-preservation are being implemented.

Personalized Treatment Approach to Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer with BRCA2 and PTEN Mutations: A Case Report.

DNA repair mutations (BRCA1 and BRCA2) are found in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) patients. Here, we report a case of a 71-year-old male patient with metastatic CRPC along with BRCA2 and PTEN mutations. As per the genomic findings of the Foundation One report, FDA-approved therapies were available for other tumor types, such as olaparib for the loss of BRCA2 and everolimus for the loss of PTEN exons 2-9.
