Background: Few malignancies provoke as many controversies about treatment as pleural mesothelioma. There is limited experience with novel radiotherapy techniques worldwide in adjuvant and particularly in neoadjuvant settings within multimodality treatment. The objective of the current study was to investigate the long-term outcome of neoadjuvant and adjuvant pleural intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) combined with macroscopic complete resection with or without chemotherapy.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the survival benefits of postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) in patients with resectable esophageal cancer (EC) after neoadjuvant therapy in the Immunotherapy era.
Methods: The study was designed as a retrospective cohort study, which included a total of 733 patients with EC from the SEER database and a single-center cohort. We used propensity score matching (PSM) to equilibrate patient characteristics.
Introduction: The integration of anti-HER2 targeted therapy with chemotherapy has demonstrated an increase in pathologic complete response rates (pCR) in patients with HER2-positive early-stage breast cancer (EBC). This study presents real-world data on the use of trastuzumab with or without pertuzumab, in combination with anthracycline and taxanes-based chemotherapy regimen.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of patients with HER2-positive EBC who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT), treated between January 2014 and September 2021.

Background: Olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB) is a rare malignancy that develops in the nasal cavity, with appendicular skeletal metastases being exceptionally uncommon. We report the case of a middle-aged male with ONB, presenting with an unusual biopsy-confirmed solitary metastasis to the left proximal femur.
Case Presentation: A 33-year-old male was previously diagnosed with olfactory neuroblastoma in the skull base after initial clinical presentation with progressive left-sided nasal obstruction for six months.

Background: The management of locally advanced prostate cancer (PCa) and oligometastatic prostate cancer (OMPCa) remains a clinical challenge. The heterogeneous nature of PCa prompts a need for precision treatment. This study aims to verify whether genomic biomarker-guided neoadjuvant therapy for locally advanced PCa and OMPCa can result in an improvement in the pathological responses and survival outcomes in a Chinese population.
