Nivolumab is an effective and tolerable treatment for metastatic renal cell carcinoma, showing longer median overall survival than everolimus and achieving a good percentage of objective response, stable disease, and prolonged responses. However, very few cases have been reported in the literature of a complete response to nivolumab in the metastatic pretreated setting. Here, we report a case of complete response to nivolumab in II line following sunitinib in a metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma with favorable risk according to the IMDC criteria. This is also an interesting case on the use of immunotherapy following a long period of antiangiogenetic therapy, underlining the importance of the sequence of treatment to achieve the best possible outcome in terms of prolonged overall survival, progression-free survival, and objective response.

Background: Olaparib is a relatively new poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor (PARPi) administered to ovarian cancer (OC) patients with a complete or partial response to first-line chemotherapy. One of the metabolic side effects of olaparib is the disruption of glucose homeostasis, often resulting in hyperglycemia The study was a retrospective analysis of olaparib-induced hyperglycemia in OC patients with initial normoglycemia following the first, second, and third month of olaparib treatment METHODS: The study involved 32 OC patients, classified into three groups according to their Body Mass Index (BMI): normal BMI (BMI 18.5-24.

Introduction: Migrant women in transit face high risk of developing mental health problems such as depression and anxiety, driven by gendered social-structural factors including violence, social isolation, migration uncertainty, limited access to services and gender inequities. Although migrant women who endure such conditions have high need for mental health prevention, few evidence-based interventions are tailored to this population. Moreover, while women and children's mental health are interconnected, few mental health interventions address parenting needs.
