Up to 90% of high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) patients will develop resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy, posing substantial therapeutic challenges due to a lack of universally druggable targets. Leveraging BenevolentAI's AI-driven approach to target discovery, we screened potential AI-predicted therapeutic targets mapped to unapproved tool compounds in patient-derived 3D models. This identified TNIK, which is modulated by NCB-0846, as a novel target for platinum-resistant HGSC.

Desmoplastic melanoma is a rare and distinct subtype of cutaneous melanoma, it presents diagnostic challenges due to the lack of specific clinical features and overlapping histopathological characteristics with other malignancies, which necessitate careful clinicopathological correlation and advanced immunohistochemical profiling. While surgical excision remains the cornerstone of treatment, advances in precision medicine, particularly immune checkpoint inhibitors, have shown promise in improving outcomes for unresectable and metastatic desmoplastic melanoma. We present a case study involving a 52-year-old woman misdiagnosed with a malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor and later identified as desmoplastic melanoma through re-evaluation of histopathological and immunohistochemical findings.

Background And Aim: The global healthcare system acknowledged the crucial role of disease knowledge in health outcomes and improving quality of life among patients with chronic disease. A lack of adequate knowledge and understanding of hypertension, its symptoms, and available treatments can lead to poor treatment outcomes. The present study aimed to determine the level of hypertension knowledge and associated factors among hypertensive patients.
