Background: Locally advanced periorbital cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) may require orbital exenteration, which is highly morbid. As immunotherapy develops, orbit preservation may become widespread, and data benchmarking survival with current standard-of-care surgery and radiotherapy are essential to the integration of this emerging method into modern treatment paradigms. This study aimed to determine the survival of patients after orbital exenteration for cSCC and investigate contributing factors.

Immunotherapy has revolutionized cancer treatment, making it a challenge to noninvasively monitor immune infiltration. Metabolic reprogramming in cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), is closely linked to immune status. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the ability of carbon-11 acetate (C-acetate) and fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (F-FDG) PET/CT findings in predicting overall survival (OS) and immune infiltration in HCC patients.

: Previously, we reported elevated levels of fucosylated α-acid glycoprotein (fAGP) in plasma samples from patients with diverse types of cancers. Accordingly, fAGP was assumed to be a potential biomarker for the early detection of cancers. : The fAGP level was retrospectively measured in preoperative plasma samples from 213 patients with either hepatic, biliary tract, or pancreatic cancer and was analyzed together with levels of six existing tumor markers determined as reference standards.

We report results from the exploratory concurrently randomized nivolumab plus ipilimumab and chemotherapy arms of the international phase III CheckMate 816 trial.
Methods: Adults with stage IB-IIIA (American Joint Committee on Cancer seventh edition) resectable NSCLC received three cycles of nivolumab once every 2 weeks plus one cycle of ipilimumab or three cycles of chemotherapy (on day 1 or days 1 and 8 of each 3-week cycle) followed by surgery.

Aim: To evaluate the role of preoperative neutrophils to lymphocytes ratio (NLR) as a predictor for the response to BCG in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC).
Materials: Nighty six patients with NMIBC were prospectively included in our study. Our study population was classified into two groups, based on pre-operative (NLR) either ⩽ or > 3.
