Background: GALOP investigators developed a prospective cooperative protocol for localized Ewing sarcoma (ES) incorporating interval-compressed chemotherapy (VDC/IE, vincristine, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide/ifosfamide and etoposide). After completing conventional treatment, patients were randomized to 1 year of metronomic chemotherapy (vinblastine and cyclophosphamide).
Methods: Phase III randomized prospective trial.

Induction of in vitro spermatogenesis may be helpful in the treatment of infertility in azoospermic individuals and those undergoing chemotherapy. Different cultivation systems have been implemented to achieve this aim. This review study aimed to investigate the application of three-dimensional culture in the induction of in vitro spermatogenesis.

Background: Gastric outlet obstruction due to unresectable tumours is usually managed with a gastrojejunostomy. Unfortunately, the unsatisfactory outcomes of this procedure have led to the search for alternatives, including gastric partitioning.
Methods: Monocentric, randomized, parallel, open-label trial that included patients with obstructive, unresectable distal gastric tumours.

Neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy (NCIT) has improved pathological complete response and conferred survival benefits in patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer. However, surgical complications unrelated to the tumor continue to detract from patient outcomes. While the "watch-and-wait" strategy has been implemented in clinical complete responders following neoadjuvant therapy for rectal cancer, there is a lack of evidence supporting its practicability in esophageal cancer after NCIT.

Cathepsins, the most abundant lysosomal proteases, have key functions in cell maintenance and homeostasis. They are overexpressed and hypersecreted in cancer and associated with poor prognosis. Secreted cathepsins display pro-tumour activities in the tumour microenvironment and thus represent interesting molecular targets in oncology.
