AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Clear-cell sarcoma (CCS) is a rare, malignant, soft-tissue tumor, which involves the extremities, particularly the foot and foot joint tendons and aponeuroses. It is morphologically similar to but histochemically distinct from malignant melanoma. CCS arising in the gastrointestinal tract has rarely been reported. The prognosis of CCS is reportedly poor because of the high incidence of metastases at the time of initial diagnosis and the high frequency of recurrence. We report a case of early-stage CCS of the small intestine detected by (18)F-fluoro-2-deoxy D-glucose Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (FDG-PET/CT) during the comprehensive examination of an inflammatory reaction. In this case, FDG-PET/CT clearly visualized the lesion, which was difficult to detect by contrast CT.

Intratumoral oncolytic virus OH2 injection in patients with locally advanced or metastatic sarcoma: a phase 1/2 trial.
J Immunother Cancer
January 2025
Department of Bone and Soft Tissue Tumor, Peking University Cancer Hospital. Key Laboratory of Carcinogenesis and Translational Research (Ministry of Education/Beijing), Beijing, China
Background: Intratumoral oncolytic herpes simplex virus 2-GM CSF (OH2) injection has shown safety and antitumor efficacy in patients with solid tumors. Here, we examined the safety and efficacy of OH2 as a single agent or in combination with HX008, an NMPA-approved PD-1 inhibitor, in locally advanced or metastatic sarcoma patients.
Methods: This multicenter, phase 1/2 trial enrolled patients with injectable sarcoma lesions, who had failed at least 1 or more lines of standard treatment.
Metastatic Alveolar Soft Part Sarcoma Presenting as an Adrenal Incidentaloma: A Case Report with Review of Literature.

Department of Pathology, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, India.
Metastasis of alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) to the adrenal gland is infrequent, with only eight patients reported in the literature. Here we present an ASPS in an adolescent girl presented as a hypervascular adrenal incidentaloma along with a review of the available literature. This study aims to serve as a reference to aid in the pre-operative radiological and histopathological diagnosis of this rare entity.

Purpose: MAK683, a first-in-class and highly selective allosteric inhibitor of the embryonic ectoderm development subunit of polycomb repressive complex 2, has shown sustained antitumor activity in tumor xenograft models. This first-in-human phase 1/2 study evaluated the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and clinical activity of single-agent MAK683 in advanced malignancies.
Methods: MAK683 was administered fasted once daily or twice daily continuously in 28-day treatment cycles.
Paediatric renal tumours: an update on challenges and recent developments.

Histology Laboratory, Children's Health Ireland, Dublin, Ireland.
Paediatric renal tumours include a broad range of neoplasms which largely differ, but also overlap to a smaller extent, with adult kidney cancer. These include the embryonal tumour nephroblastoma, which accounts for the majority of cases of kidney cancer in the first decade of life and, despite boasting a cure in ~ 90% cases, still presents clinical challenges in a small proportion of cases. A variety of less common mesenchymal tumours, including the mostly indolent congenital mesoblastic nephroma, clear cell sarcoma of kidney which continues to be associated with poor outcomes for higher stage disease, and the typically lethal malignant rhabdoid tumour, form the bulk of the remaining presentations in the first decade.

Background: Dual inhibition of cytotoxic T-lymphocyte associated protein 4 (CTLA-4) and programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) has been shown to be an effective treatment strategy in many cancers. We sought to determine the objective response rate of combination durvalumab (D) plus tremelimumab (TM) in parallel cohorts of patients with carefully selected rare cancer types in which these agents had not previously been evaluated in phase II trials and for which there was clinical or biological rationale for dual immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy to be active.
Methods: We designed a multi-centre, non-blinded, open-label phase II basket trial with each of the following 8 rare cancers considered a separate phase II trial: salivary carcinoma, carcinoma of unknown primary (CUP) with tumour infiltrating lymphocytes and/or expressing PD-L1, mucosal melanoma, acral melanoma, osteosarcoma, undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma, clear cell carcinoma of the ovary (CCCO) or squamous cell carcinoma of the anal canal (SCCA).
