Published: November 2008

The importance of the carcinoma of the prostate is still increasing. It is important to have options such as multimodal therapy. In this article two selected case reports are presented. Treatment options such as surgery, hormonal and irradiation therapy as well as chemotherapy will be discussed. Each patient suffering from carcinoma of prostate should receive individual best therapy.

Prostate cancer is the second most common type of cancer in male worldwide. Stromal-epithelial interaction is thought to have a major impact on cancer development and progression. Previous studies have shown that interaction via soluble factors lead to a reduction in the expression of xCT and AL122023.

Background: The distribution of adverse events (AEs) triggered by immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) across different cancer types has never been demonstrated.

Methods: Randomised controlled trials exclusively assessing ICI monotherapy in cohorts of over 100 patients were considered. Our primary outcome was a comprehensive summary of the distribution of all-grade treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) as well as serious TRAEs (CTCAE grade 3 or higher) across different malignancies.

Activation of the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways is vital in regulating cell growth, differentiation, apoptosis, and stress response, significantly affecting tumorigenesis and cancer progression. We developed a bioinformatic technique to construct an interactome network-based molecular pathways for genes of interest and quantify their activation levels using high-throughput gene expression data. This study is focused on the p38α, p38β, p38γ, and p38δ kinases, examining their activation levels (PALs) based on transcriptomic data and their associations with survival and drug responsiveness across various cancer types.

Introduction: To determine the impact of diabetes and antidiabetic medications on referral and pathological outcomes in uro-oncology cases. We report preliminary results from a single center study.

Methods: We retrospectively collected data from 781 patients treated between 2018 and 2023 for radical prostatectomy (RP) for prostate cancer (PCa), radical cystectomy (RC) for bladder cancer (BCa), radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) for upper tract urothelial carcinoma, partial nephrectomy (PN) and radical nephrectomy (RN) for renal cell cancer (RCC).

Background: Prostate cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related mortality among men in the United States. Over the past two decades, the observed decline in prostate cancer mortality can be attributed to advancements in screening, early detection, and treatment. However, persistent disparities related to race, geography, and age highlight the need for targeted interventions to improve outcomes.
