Lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) is characterized by a high rate of metastasis and recurrence, leading to a poor prognosis for affected patients. Intestinal metastasis of LUSC is a rare clinical occurrence. Treatment options for LUSC patients with intestinal metastasis are limited, and no standard therapy guidelines exist for managing these cases. In this review, we discuss the clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment of LUSC patients with intestinal metastasis and present a rare case of LUSC with intestinal metastasis. We describe a patient who presented with a severe cough and chest pain and diagnosed with LUSC and bone tumor. Initially, the primary LUSC and bone tumor were controlled with standard treatments. However, the primary LUSC reoccurred shortly after treatment, this time with intestinal metastasis, for which effective treatments are lacking. Our observation from the case suggests that LUSC metastasizing to intestinal tract is associated with a poorer prognosis.

Orally administered sorafenib has shown limited improvement in overall survival for non-small-cell lung cancer patients, likely due to poor pharmacokinetics and adverse effects, including gastrointestinal toxicity. To address these issues, we developed silica-containing antioxidant nanoparticles (siRNP) as a carrier to enhance the therapeutic efficacy of lipophilic sorafenib. Sorafenib was loaded into siRNP via dialysis (sora@siRNP).

The intratumoral microbiome plays a significant role in many cancers, such as lung, pancreatic, and colorectal cancer. Pancreatic cancer (PC) is one of the most lethal malignancies and is often diagnosed at advanced stages. , an anaerobic Gram-negative bacterium primarily residing in the oral cavity, has garnered significant attention for its emerging role in several extra-oral human diseases and, lately, in pancreatic cancer progression and prognosis.

Copper, an essential trace element and biochemical cofactor in humans plays a critical role in maintaining health. Recent studies have identified a significant association between copper levels and the progression and metastasis of cancer. Copper is primarily absorbed in the intestinal tract, often leading to an imbalance of copper ions in the body.
