The CDK4/6 inhibitor Ribociclib has shown limited efficacy as a monotherapy in colorectal cancer (CRC). However, combining Ribociclib with targeted therapies could present a viable strategy for treating CRC. This study evaluated the combination of Ribociclib and the PI3K inhibitor Alpelisib across four distinct cell lines representing different mutational statuses ( wild-type, -mutated, -mutated, and -mutated).

High-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) remains the most common and deadly form of ovarian cancer. However, available cell lines usually fail to appropriately represent its complex molecular and histological features. To overcome this drawback, we established OVAR79, a new cell line derived from the ascitic fluid of a patient with a diagnosis of HGSOC, which adds a unique set of properties to the study of ovarian cancer.

The emergence of endometriosis-associated clear cell carcinoma (CCC) within the abdominal wall is a notably rare phenomenon. This condition predominantly impacts females who have previously undergone surgical interventions, including hysterectomy or caesarean section (C-section), with the malignant transformation of endometriosis within the post-surgical abdominal scar posited as a likely mechanism. Herein, we delineate a distinctive case of endometriosis-associated CCC emanating from the abdominal wall.
