Amongst Ewing sarcoma family of tumours, (EFST), cutaneous/subcutaneous Ewing sarcoma are defined as tumours arising from cutaneous or subcutaneous tissue, not invading the underlying aponeurosis. They are rare tumours, with less than 200 patients published. They are typically small tumours (less than 5cm), and can arise at any anatomical location, with a particular tropism for distal, truncal and head/neck locations, compared to classical Ewing sarcoma.

Background: Randomized trials and meta-analyses have indicated longer survival with neoadjuvant than with adjuvant therapy in patients with resectable or borderline resectable (R/BR) pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Despite the efficacy of chemotherapy, the role of radiotherapy as an adjuvant or neoadjuvant treatment for patients with R/BR pancreatic adenocarcinoma remains unclear. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we compared the benefits of additional chemoradiotherapy (CRT) to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) with NAC alone for R/BR pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

Globally, gastric cancer ranks as the fifth most common cancer and is the third most common cause of malignancy-associated mortality. Although surgery is the primary treatment option for gastric cancer, adjuvant chemotherapy improves survival in patients following surgery. Proverbially, plant polyphenols have many beneficial health effects, including anticancer properties.

The benefit of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in ovarian cancer remains controversial, hindering the development of rational combination therapies based on hyperthermia (HT). This study reports the preliminary results of the neoadjuvant HIPEC (NHIPEC) trial (ChiCTR2000038173), demonstrating enhanced tumor response in high-grade serous ovarian cancer with NHIPEC. Through single-cell RNA sequencing analysis, we identified both homogeneous and heterogeneous cellular responses to HT within the tumor and microenvironment.
