Primary Burkitt´s lymphoma (BL) of the prostate is rare in the adolescent population. The etiology remains poorly understood. There has been some proposed associations to Epstein-Barr virus and HIV. Clinical and histopathologic data of a 17-year-old patient who underwent transurethral resection of the prostate was obtained. We report the first case of primary malignant BL of the prostate in a 17-year-old Caucasian male who presented with hematuria, lower urinary tract symptoms. Differential diagnosis of a prostatic mass in adolescent patients must be primary or secondary lymphoma of the prostate, including BL as described for the first time in this article.

Cyclin Dependent Kinase 2 (CDK2) Inhibitors in Oncology Clinical Trials: A Review.

Cyclin dependent kinase 2 (CDK2) is responsible for enforcing progression through the G1-S phase transition. Mutations and alterations in the CDK2 signaling pathway are associated with various cancers, most commonly breast, ovarian, prostate, leukemia, and lymphoma. CDK2 inhibitors have shown promising preclinical and early clinical results, and this class of agents may be most effective against cancers with cyclin E overactivity.

Purpose: MAK683, a first-in-class and highly selective allosteric inhibitor of the embryonic ectoderm development subunit of polycomb repressive complex 2, has shown sustained antitumor activity in tumor xenograft models. This first-in-human phase 1/2 study evaluated the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and clinical activity of single-agent MAK683 in advanced malignancies.
Methods: MAK683 was administered fasted once daily or twice daily continuously in 28-day treatment cycles.

Xanthohumol (XN) is a phenolic compound found in the largest amount in the flowers of the hop plant, but also in the leaves and possibly in the stalks, which is successfully added to dietary supplements and cosmetics. XN is known as a potent antioxidant compound, which, according to current research, has the potential to prevent and inhibit the development of diseases, i.e.

Individuals with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) have a high risk of developing other malignancies (OMs). The development of OMs may be associated with the advanced age of CLL/SLL patients, presence of a tumor-promoting microenvironment, immune alterations inherent to CLL/SLL, or chemotherapy. Importantly, the occurrence of OMs following frontline fludarabine, cyclophosphamide and rituximab (FCR) treatment is associated with a reduction in the overall survival (OS).

Humans have more than 270,000 lncRNAs. Among these, lncRNA HOXA-AS2 is considered a transformative gene involved in various cellular processes, including cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration, and invasion. Thus, it can be regarded as a potential tumor marker for both diagnosis and prognosis.
