Background: Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in children and adolescents, with a significant concentration in low and middle-income countries. Previous research has identified disparities in cancer incidence and mortality based on a country's level of development. The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region comprises of countries with heterogeneous income and development levels.

Importance: Progressive disease (PD) in patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) varies widely in outcomes according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST), version 1.1. Efforts to modify RECIST for ICI treatment have not resolved the heterogeneity in PD patterns, posing a clinical challenge.

L-asparaginase (L-ASNase) is crucial in treating pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), but its use is hampered by side effects from the immunogenicity and L-glutaminase (L-GLNase) co-activity of FDA-approved bacterial L-ASNases, often leading to treatment discontinuation and poor outcomes. The toxicity of these L-ASNases makes them especially challenging to use in adult cancer patients. To overcome these issues, we developed EBD-200, a humanized guinea pig L-ASNase with low Km and no L-GLNase activity, eliminating glutamine-related toxicity.

Background: The use of FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 () as a crucial target for kinase inhibitors is well established, but its association with immune infiltration remains unclear. This study aimed to explore the relationship between mutations and immune checkpoint molecules (ICMs) in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
Methods: The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) databases were used to identify the ICMs associated with mutations.

: This systematic review evaluates the current applications, advantages, and challenges of large language models (LLMs) in melanoma care. A systematic search was conducted in PubMed and Scopus databases for studies published up to 23 July 2024, focusing on the application of LLMs in melanoma. The review adhered to PRISMA guidelines, and the risk of bias was assessed using the modified QUADAS-2 tool.
