In 1003 patients suffering from bronchial carcinoma the authors examined the type of lymph node spread. Radical lymph nodeectomy takes 30 to 60 minutes more without increasing the survival time, only the rate of regional metastases is diminished. The fate of the patient is dependent on the spread of haemotogenous micrometastases. According to the authors opinion simple extirpation of the regional lymph nodes as an en-bloc-procedure will be sufficient.

In-transit metastases (ITM) are estimated to occur in 5-10% of primary cutaneous melanomas. They are classified as stage III disease in the American Joint Committee on Cancer classification system and are associated with approximately a 30% 10-year survival rate. The management of ITM is not standardized.

Significance of the monocyte CCR2-CCL2 axis in triple-negative breast cancer.

Arch Med Res

March 2025

Chair and Department of Medical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine, Poznan University of Medical Sciences, Poznań, Poland; Hospital Pharmacy, Greater Poland Cancer Center, Poznań, Poland.

Background: The monocyte CCR2-CCL2 axis appears to play a crucial role in the generation of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), which subsequently promotes tumor metastasis and resistance to therapy.

Aims: Our study assessed the monocyte CCR2-CCL2 axis in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and its ability to predict tumor response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC).

Methods: The study included 42 female patients diagnosed with TNBC and eligible for NAC.

Objective: To compare early recurrence patterns, safety, survival and investigate the clinical risk factors of early recurrence (ER) after liver resection or thermal ablation (TA) for patients with colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) with number ≤ 5 and largest diameter ≤ 3 cm.

Materials And Methods: This retrospective study included patients with CRLM who underwent liver resection or TA between January 2016 and December 2021 at two hospitals in China. The Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test were used to assess recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS).

Purpose Of Review: Genomic and transcriptomic sequencing technologies have revolutionized our ability to characterize prostate cancer at the molecular level. The underlying premise of next-generation sequencing technologies and their current and evolving applications in prostate cancer management are provided in the review.

Recent Findings: Improved methodologies are allowing timely sequencing of the coding regions or both the coding and noncoding regions of the genome to help identify potential mutations and structural variations in the prostate cancer genome, some of which are currently also targetable therapeutically.
