Unlabelled: L-asparaginase (L-asp) is an antineoplastic drug used in Leukemia and Lymphoma treatment protocols. Alterations in lipid metabolism have been reported in 10-50% of children treated with L-Asp.
Objective: To report an unusual complication of lipid metabolism associated with the use of L-Asp.

Background/aim: Immune checkpoint blockade has achieved great success as a targeted immunotherapy for solid cancers. However, small molecules that inhibit programmed death 1/programmed death ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) binding are still being developed and have several advantages, such as high bioavailability. Previously, we reported a novel PD-1/PD-L1-inhibiting small compound, SCL-1, which showed potent antitumor effects on PD-L1 tumors.

The rate and pattern of mutagenesis in cancer genomes is significantly influenced by DNA accessibility and active biological processes. Here we show that efficient sites of replication initiation drive and modulate specific mutational processes in cancer. Sites of replication initiation impede nucleotide excision repair in melanoma and are off-targets for activation-induced deaminase (AICDA) activity in lymphomas.

Purpose: The association between statin use and cancer survival has been investigated in previous studies with conflicting findings. This study aimed to assess the association between statin use following cancer diagnosis and survival in six common cancers using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER)-Medicare database.
Methods: Individuals aged ≥ 66 years diagnosed with prostate cancer, colorectal cancer, lung cancer, bladder cancer, pancreatic cancer, or non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) from 2008 through 2017 were identified.

Background: The prognosis of multiple myeloma involving the central nervous system (CNS-MM) is poor. We report outcomes of CNS-MM treated with CNS-directed radiation therapy (RT).
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed patients with CNS-MM treated with CNS-directed RT from 2015 to 2024.
