Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most deadly cancer diagnosed in both men and women. 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) treatment frequently causes the CRC cells to become chemoresistance, which has a negative impact on prognosis. Using bioinformatic techniques, this work describes important genes and biological pathways linked to 5-FU resistance in CRC cells.

Purpose: To compare the clinical outcomes of different systemic therapies, specifically PD(L)1 inhibitors plus Lenvatinib versus Atezolizumab plus Bevacizumab, when combined with hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) based on the FOLFOX regimen (oxaliplatin, fluorouracil, and leucovorin) as first line treatment for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma.
Patients And Methods: This real-world retrospective study enrolled 294 patients with unresectable HCC. All patients received HAIC in combination with either PD(L)1 inhibitors plus Lenvatinib (PLEN-HAIC) or Atezolizumab plus Bevacizumab (AT-HAIC).

Background And Purpose: The randomised clinical trial KEYNOTE-048 has demonstrated a significant increase in survival for patients with head and neck cancer treated with pembrolizumab with or without chemotherapy. The purpose of the present retrospective study was to investigate whether survival in a group of consecutive patients treated at our department was comparable to the results from KEYNOTE-048.
Patients/material And Methods: Seventy-six patients initiated treatment with pembrolizumab ± platinum/5-FU between July 2020 and May 2022.
