211 Background: Prostate cancer remains the most prevalent solid tumor in men and third leading cause of cancer-related mortality globally. Tumor aggressiveness poorer clinical outcomes are associated with certain germline variants. Current technological developments genetic testing have improved identification variants uncertain significance (VUS), adding complexity to challenging process decision-making. The aim this project was explore potential correlation between identified patients...

Metastatic melanoma is a lethal skin cancer and its incidence rising every year. It represents challenge for oncologist, as the current treatment options are non-curative in majority of cases; therefore, effort to find and/or develop novel compounds mandatory. Pemetrexed (Alimta®, MTA) multitarget antifolate that inhibits folate-dependent enzymes: thymidylate synthase, dihydrofolate reductase glycinamide ribonucleotide formyltransferase, required de novo synthesis nucleotides DNA...

Although treatment options for cancer patients are increasing every year, the drug resistance problem remains very present. It is difficult to find a that acts equally on tumours of same histology as individual's genetic characteristics often determine response treatment. Furthermore, initially respond anti-tumour therapy able adapt and develop drug, while others do not. In addition, this usually implies development agents which cells have not been exposed, phenomenon called cross-resistance...

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) represent the most frequent mesenchymal tumor of gastrointestinal tract. Less than 5% them seem to be hereditary, being succinate dehydrogenase complex (SDHx) deficient disorders and neurofibromatosis type 1 more related inherited conditions. Wild (WT) KIT PDGFRα GISTs constitute a clue for hypothetical underlying germline condition.We present case 20 years old female diagnosed gastric WT GIST who developed hepatic metastases during her clinical...

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a highly prevalent disease in developed countries. Inherited Mendelian causes account for approximately 5% of CRC cases, with Lynch syndrome and familial adenomatous polyposis being the most forms. Scientific efforts are focused on discovery new candidate genes associated associations phenotypes well-established cancer-related genes. BRCA1-associated ring domain (BARD1) gene deleterious germline variants moderate increase relative risk breast cancer, but their...

Introduction: Bevacizumab combined with IFL (irinotecan, bolus 5-fluorouracil, and leucovorin) has been shown to improve outcomes for patients metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). However, infusional 5-fluorouracil-based combinations are now considered optimal in this setting. We analyzed the efficacy toxicity of FOLFIRI leucovorin)-bevacizumab an unselected cohort consecutive mCRC. Materials Methods: Patients unresectable mCRC received bevacizumab 5 mg/kg irinotecan 180 mg/m² on day 1,...
