Предотвращение событий, связанных со скелетом, в новой диагностированной миеломе.

Несмотря на увеличение числа новых методов лечения недавно диагностированной множественной миеломы (НДММ), предотвращение событий, связанных со скелетом (СРП), по-прежнему является сложной задачей. В настоящем обзоре резюмируются механистические причины болезни костей миэломы, данные, подтверждающие использование бисфофонатов и ингибиторов РАНКЛ, а также оптимальное управление предотвращением НОС у пациентов НДММ. Как золедронная кислота (ZA), так и деносумаб являются приемлемыми вариантами обработки с сопоставимыми характеристиками безопасности и эффективности. Однако у пациентов, которые явл

Cancer therapy-associated Takotsubo cardiomyopathy: A narrative review of mechanisms, drug associations, and clinical implications.

Anticancer therapies have been increasingly associated with Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC). As prior reports remain fragmented across case studies and drug-specific reviews, this paper offers one of the most comprehensive reviews to date of cancer therapy-associated TTC. While classically triggered by emotional or physical stress, TTC has been increasingly associated with chemotherapy and other cancer-directed therapies. This literature review explores the pathophysiology, clinical features, and evolving evidence linking anticancer agents to TTC, with a focus on cytotoxic cancer therapy, hormo

Leiomyosarcomas of the Great Saphenous Vein: Diagnostic and Therapeutic Strategies to Prevent Unplanned Excisions and Improve Oncologic, Functional, and Psychological Outcomes.

Euthanasia as a safeguard for living: Anticipation and incurable cancer in a Colombian context.

This article builds on years of ethnographic conversations I sustained with my father, 89, who lives in Colombia. Soon after getting diagnosed with an incurable Multiple Myeloma-a cancer known for unleashing prolonged and painful agonies-he withdrew from oncology treatments and secured access to euthanasia (assisted-dying) on his own, bypassing medico-insurance guidelines created to regulate this medical practice and prevent abuses. Eight years after withdrawing treatments, my dad is still alive. His case shines a light on how securing access to euthanasia may have had unintended therapeutic e

The role of vitamin D and vitamin D deficiency in orthopaedics and traumatology-a narrative overview of the literature.

Vitamin D is considered to play an important role in musculoskeletal health. It's classical function is the regulation of calcium and phosphate homeostasis, thus ensuring a balanced bone metabolism that is characterised by an equal amount of bone resorption and bone formation. In the past decades, a plethora of pre-clinical and clinical studies reporting on potential health-beneficial properties of vitamin D have emerged. Moreover, there is an abundance of reports highlighting vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency in patients with almost innumerable diseases. Further, it is estimated that mor

Can medicinal mushrooms have prophylactic or therapeutic effect against COVID-19 and its pneumonic superinfection and complicating inflammation?

Medicinal mushrooms have documented effects against different diseases, including infections and inflammatory disorders. The related Basidiomycota Agaricus blazei Murill (AbM), Hericium erinaceus (HE), and Grifola frondosa (GF) have been shown to exert antimicrobial activity against viral agents, Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and parasites in vitro and in vivo. Since the mechanism is immunomodulatory and not antibiotical, the mushrooms should be active against multi-drug resistant microbes as well. Moreover, since these Basidiomycota also have anti-inflammatory properties, they may

Targeted Therapies for the Evolving Molecular Landscape of Acute Myeloid Leukemia.

Despite considerable growth in our understanding of the heterogeneous biology and pathogenesis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in recent decades, for nearly forty years, little progress was gained in the realm of novel therapeutics. Since 2017, however, nine agents have been FDA-approved for patients with AML in both the upfront and relapsed/refractory (R/R) settings. Most of these compounds function as inhibitors of key cell cycle enzymatic pathways or mediators of leukemic proliferation and survival. They have been approved both as single agents and in combination with conventional or reduce

Революция онкологии: роль искусственного интеллекта (AI) в качестве антителного дизайна и средств оптимизации.

Антитела играют решающую роль в защите человеческого тела от болезней, включая такие опасные для жизни заболевания, как рак. Они оказывают посреднические услуги в связи с иммунной реакцией на иностранные антигены и, в некоторых случаях, на самоантигены. С течением времени антителные технологии эволюционировали от моноклонных антител (mAbs) до химерика антигенных рецепторов Т (клеток CAR-T), оказывая значительное влияние на биотехнологию, диагностику и лечение. Хотя эти достижения способствовали активизации терапевтического вмешательства, интеграция искусственного интеллекта (АИ) революционизир

Взгляды заинтересованных сторон Соединенного Королевства на суррогатные концы рака и потенциальные возможности Соединенного Королевства в области реальных мировых данных для подтверждения их использования в процессе принятия решений.

Продолжительность общего выживаемости пациентов с раком увеличилась благодаря более раннему обнаружению и совершенствованию лечения. Однако эти улучшения породили трудности с оценкой воздействия новых методов лечения, особенно тех, которые используются на раннем этапе лечения. Поскольку общее выживание остается предпочтительным для большинства лиц, принимающих решения, для внедрения в практику клинической практики терапевтических инноваций может потребоваться много времени. Кроме того, трудно экстраполировать полученные результаты на разнородные группы населения и решить проблемы пациентов, же

Palliative care of proximal femur metastatic disease and osteolytic lesions: results following surgical and radiation treatment.

BACKGROUND: Femoral bone metastases (FBM) or lesions (FBL) can lead to loss of mobility and independence due to skeletal-related events (SRE), e.g. pain, deformity and pathological fractures. Aim of this study was to analyze effects of radiotherapy and surgery, different surgical techniques and complications on disease-specific survival (DSS). METHODS: Patients who underwent palliative therapy for FBM or FBL between 2014 and 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Chi-square test was used to detect intergroup differences. Survival was calculated using Kaplan-Meier method, Cox regression and compa

Lifestyle and Pharmacological Interventions to Prevent Anthracycline-Related Cardiotoxicity in Cancer Patients.

Anthracyclines remain a cornerstone of cancer therapy but are associated with a significant risk of cardiotoxicity, which can lead to overt heart failure. The risk is modulated by cumulative dose, pre-existing cardiovascular disease, and patient-specific factors. As cancer survival improves, the long-term cardiovascular consequences of anthracycline exposure have become a growing concern, underscoring the need for effective preventive strategies. This narrative review examines lifestyle and pharmacological interventions aimed at mitigating anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity. Evidence suggest

Targeting the nuclear export receptor exportin-1 in acute myeloid leukaemia: From biology to clinical translation.

BACKGROUND: Exportin-1 (XPO1), a key regulator of nucleocytoplasmic transport, is frequently dysregulated in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and contributes to leukemogenesis, disease progression and therapeutic resistance. Selective inhibitors of nuclear export (SINEs), especially selinexor and eltanexor, have shown promising antileukemic potential. However, their clinical value, optimal therapeutic positioning and rational use in AML remain to be fully clarified. METHODS: We collected and reviewed relevant literature to summarize the biological roles of XPO1 in AML and the therapeutic potentia

Looking for the Holy Grail-Drug Candidates for Glioblastoma Multiforme Chemotherapy.

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the deadliest and the most heterogeneous brain cancer. The median survival time of GBM patients is approximately 8 to 15 months after initial diagnosis. GBM development is determined by numerous signaling pathways and is considered one of the most challenging and complicated-to-treat cancer types. Standard GBM therapy consist of surgery followed by radiotherapy or chemotherapy, and combined treatment. Current standard of care (SOC) does not offer a significant chance for GBM patients to combat cancer, and the selection of available drugs is limited. For almost

Механистические понимания и достижения биконкретной T-клетки, использующей антителную терапию в мультимиеломе.

Множественная миелома (ММ) — клональная порча неизмеримо дифференцированных плазменных клеток, характеризующаяся инфильтрацией костного мозга и чрезмерным производством моноклонных иммуноглобулинов, что приводит к повреждению конечной формы, например остеолитических повреждений костей. Несмотря на значительный терапевтический прогресс, достигнутый с протеаозными ингибиторами, иммуномодуляционными препаратами и anti-CD38 Моноклональные антитела, множественная миелома остаются неизлечимыми, а результаты для трехклассных пациентов-восстановителей остаются мрачными, при этом медиана выживаемости н

Management of Myeloproliferative Neoplasms: An Integrative Approach.

Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are chronic blood cancers characterized by overproduction of blood cells, leading to increased thrombotic and ischemic risk. Patients frequently experience symptoms including fatigue, abdominal discomfort, and complications from thrombotic events, which significantly impact the quality of life (QoL). Many patients inquire about complementary and integrative medicine (CIM) approaches, including nutritional interventions and supplements, creating opportunities for healthcare providers to engage in meaningful discussions guided by the principle of safety. This

The Role of NLRP3, a Star of Excellence in Myeloproliferative Neoplasms.

Nucleotide-binding domain (NOD)-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) is the most widely investigated inflammasome member whose overactivation can be a driver of several carcinomas. It is activated in response to different signals and plays an important role in metabolic disorders and inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. NLRP3 belongs to the pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) family, expressed in numerous immune cells, and it plays its primary function in myeloid cells. NLRP3 has a crucial role in myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), considered to be the diseases best studied in the inflammasome

Clinicopathological features and prognostic factors of AIDS-related lymphoma: a retrospective single-center study in China.

AIDS-related lymphoma (ARL) is a leading cause of mortality among people living with HIV (PLWH), characterized by distinct clinicopathological features and a generally poor prognosis. However, comprehensive studies on ARL remain limited. This study aimed to evaluate the clinicopathological characteristics, immune status, and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)/HIV viral loads in PLWH diagnosed with lymphoma, and to assess their prognostic significance. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 130 ARL cases diagnosed between 2017 and 2024. The cohort included 56 Burkitt lymphoma (BL), 51 diffuse large B-

Role of Toll-Like Receptors in Myeloid Neoplasms: Focuses on the Molecular Mechanisms and Clinical Impact on Myelodysplastic Syndromes, Acute Myeloid Leukemia, and Chronic Myeloid Leukemia.

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are essential components of the innate immune system, functioning as pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) to detect pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). In hematological malignancies, particularly myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), TLRs influence inflammation, disease progression, and therapeutic response. This review highlights the prognostic relevance of TLR expression, the role of the MyD88 signaling pathway in clonal evolution, and the dual

Beyond DNA Damage: Exploring the Immunomodulatory Effects of Cyclophosphamide in Multiple Myeloma.

The alkylating agent cyclophosphamide has been used in the treatment of multiple myeloma for over 60 years. At low doses, cyclophosphamide also has significant immunomodulatory activity, which can be used to modify the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment in order to augment responses to existing therapies. Immune-mediated therapies are becoming more widespread in modern approaches to myeloma treatment. In this review, we discuss the effects cyclophosphamide has on the immune system, and how it can be used synergistically with other treatment modalities including the immunomodulatory agent
