First-line nab-paclitaxel plus carboplatin for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer: Final results of the NEPTUN study.

Real-world data on the first-line treatment of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are still limited. The NEPTUN study evaluated effectiveness and safety of first-line nab-paclitaxel (Abraxane) plus carboplatin (nab-P/C) in patients with advanced NSCLC in routine clinical practice in Germany. Patients included in our study were aged ≥18 years, diagnosed with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC and with decision for first-line nab-P/C in routine clinical practice.

A Heterozygous Mutation in the Filamin C Gene Causes an Unusual Nemaline Myopathy With Ring Fibers.

Autosomal dominant pathogenic variants in the filamin C gene (FLNC) have been associated with myofibrillar myopathies, distal myopathies, and isolated cardiomyopathies. Mutations in different functional domains of FLNC can cause various clinical phenotypes. A novel heterozygous missense variant c.
