Since cisplatin is a heavy metal, renal and neurotoxicity is considered to be dose limiting in solid tumors. The current case is unusual in that remission has been maintained in a patient with recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer by cisplatin-based chemotherapy without evidence of renal or neurotoxicity, while receiving a total dose of 6,270 mg (3,920 mg/m2) of cisplatin over 11 1/2 years.

Background: Swallowed topical corticosteroids (STC) are an effective first-line therapy for patients with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), both for induction and maintenance of remission. All interventional trials with STC used twice-daily dosing regimens. However, in other inflammatory gastrointestinal disorders, corticosteroids are given once daily (OD) with equal outcomes and improved compliance.

Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) is one rare type of thyroid carcinoma without standard systemic treatment for advanced disease. Recent evidence has demonstrated promising efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors, particularly those targeting programmed death-1 (PD-1)/programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1), in a variety of solid tumors. However, there have been no research of immune checkpoint inhibitors plus chemotherapy in ATC.

Hematology-Oncology and Cell Therapy University Institute, Hôpital Maisonneuve-Rosemont Research Center, Montréal, Quebec, Canada.
Background: Cold agglutinin disease (CAD) or syndrome (CAS) can be particularly challenging when autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) is needed. Standard peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) collection and manipulation involve ex vivo blood manipulations at lower than body temperature, predisposing to agglutination during graft collection, handling, processing, and infusion.
Study Design And Methods: We describe the first case of ASCT for relapsing lymphoma in a patient with high-titer CAD requiring anti-complement therapy and chronic transfusion.

Objective: To analyze the impact of tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) maintenance therapy following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph + ALL) on recurrence rates and prognosis for the 2 transcripts, p190 and p210.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of clinical data from 58 patients diagnosed with Ph + ALL who underwent HSCT. All patients received TKI maintenance therapy following hematopoietic reconstruction post-transplantation.

Drug-induced hyponatremia is an adverse reaction with accelerated electrolyte disturbance. This study reported a rare case of delayed hyponatremia in a 68year-old female with recurrent upper tract urothelial carcinoma after Gemcitabine plus Cisplatin (GC) and Tislelizumab treatment. She had left ureter surgery, recurrence a year later with mildly abnormal kidney function (glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was 54.
