Purpose: Prior noncontemporary studies showed that oral cyclophosphamide is an active treatment of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). However, cyclophosphamide is currently underutilized in routine clinical practice given the lack of survival benefit and the emergence of more effective treatments.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed our institutional database to identify patients with mCRPC treated with cyclophosphamide.

Objective: The aim of this study was to assess symmetry of developmental stage of permanent teeth between the left and right side of the jaw, as well as between the maxilla and the mandible.
Methods: A sample of 150 panoramic radiographs of individuals aged 6-20 years (69 males, 81 females) were selected from an open-access radiographic collection (Maxwell Museum of Anthropology's orthodontic collection, Albuquerque, USA). All developing immature permanent teeth (n = 489) were scored by the first author using Moorrees and Demirjian tooth stages.
Background: Rearranged during transfection () fusions represent a distinct molecular subset of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with targeted therapeutic potential. Selpercatinib, a highly selective inhibitor, has demonstrated efficacy in various solid tumors harboring alterations. Here, we present a case highlighting the use and clinical outcomes of selpercatinib in a patient diagnosed with advanced lung adenocarcinoma harboring a fusion.
