Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a frequently encountered serious complication after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), it limits the success and widespread use of allo-HSCT. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are selected as ideal prophylactic and treatment means for GVHD during allo-HSCT due to their unique immunomodulatory and regenerative properties. Herein, the recent research progress about the prevantive and therapeutic effects of MSCs on GVHD and several issues related with the applications of MSC, including whether MSCs increasing risk of primary disease relapse and infection, impact of several clinical parameters on the clinical response to MSCs, and the prevantive and therapeutic effect of MSC-derived extracellular vesicles on GVHD are systematically reviewed.

Purpose: To validate the clinical outcomes and prognostic factors in prostate cancer (PCa) patients with Gleason score (GS) 8-10 disease treated with external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) + androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in the modern era.

Methods: Institutional databases of biopsy proven 641 patients with GS 8-10 PCa treated between 2000 and 2015 were collected from 11 institutions. In this multi-institutional Turkish Radiation Oncology Group study, a standard database sheet was sent to each institution for patient enrollment.

Background/aims: An organ preservation approach using chemoradiotherapy has been established for anal cancer. This retrospective cohort study aimed to define the clinico-demographic characteristics and outcomes of cases of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-negative anal carcinoma during a period of 20 years in a single comprehensive cancer institute.

Materials And Methods: This was a single-center retrospective cohort study of patients who were treated between January 1995 and January 2015.

Purpose: Plasma 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) concentrations vary greatly between individuals who have received standard dosage. Pharmacokinetic adjusted doses have been hypothesized to overcome the possibility of potential toxicity and ineffectiveness related to inappropriate plasma levels of 5-FU. In this study, we prospectively investigated the clinical benefit and toxicity of 5-FU in relation to its pharmacokinetic properties.
