Abstract Background Atezolizumab is a programmed death‐ligand 1 (PD‐L1) targeted monoclonal antibody that inhibits PD‐L1 interacting with its receptors PD‐1 and B7‐1, thereby enhancing anticancer immunity. Some real‐world efficacy safety studies of anti‐PD‐1 have been previously reported. However, there no reports investigating the atezolizumab monotherapy in clinical practice which focused on performance status previous treatment. Methods We retrospectively reviewed consecutive advanced...

The patient was a 69-year-old male who had started experiencing acute-onset pain in both shoulder joints and edema of hands feet. His symptoms progressively worsened within 1 month. Laboratory data indicated elevated CRP erythrocyte sedimentation rate despite the normal range antinuclear antibodies rheumatoid factor organ function. Furthermore, imaging hand synovitis without bone erosions. Meanwhile, chest CT revealed lung tumor, leading to diagnosis primary adenocarcinoma with EGFR mutation...
Abstract Background Osimertinib is one of the standard first-line treatments for advanced non-small cell lung cancer in patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations, because it achieves significantly longer progression-free survival (PFS) than conventional (hazard ratio: 0.46). However, efficacy and safety osimertinib as a treatment aged ≥75 years remain unclear. Methods This phase II study was performed to prospectively investigate elderly EGFR mutation-positive cancer....
Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has recently attracted attention as a prognostic predictor in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who receive immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). However, the utility of NLR relation to cytotoxic anticancer drugs or molecular targeted remains unclear. We determined if could predict treatment efficacy and prognosis NSCLC drugs, well ICIs, cross-sectional manner.Of 658 advanced received first-line systemic our hospital between 2008 2019, 312...
In lung cancer, several potential mechanisms of intrinsic and acquired resistance to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been explored, including mesenchymal-epithelial transition (MET) signaling pathway activation. On the other hand, vascular endothelial (VEGF) production EGFR-mutated cancer cells is stimulated by predominantly activated MET pathway. Therefore, inhibition VEGF axis as downstream target seems promising. Here, for first time, we...
Ramucirumab plus docetaxel combination therapy (DOC/RAM) for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) achieves favorable outcomes; however, efficacy and safety patients with brain metastases are still unclear.Eligible included those NSCLC measurable asymptomatic that progressed after chemotherapy. Patients were intravenously administered ramucirumab (10 mg/kg) (60 mg/m2) every 21-day cycle.Due to difficulties in accumulating the planned 65 participants, enrollment was terminated early...
Background: Central venous catheters (CVCs) are sometimes superior to peripheral vascular access for chemotherapy. line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) an important complication of CVCs in
The standard of care for unresectable, locally advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC) is chemoradiotherapy (CRT) followed by durvalumab, based on the PACIFIC study. Although multiple Japanese phase II studies have shown high efficacy and tolerability CRT with cisplatin plus S-1 (SP), no prospective study using durvalumab after SP-based has been reported.
A 50-year-old man with lung adenocarcinoma (c-T1aN2M1b) experienced reddish purpura mainly on the lower legs after receiving 12 cycles of second-line chemotherapy docetaxel. There was tumor enlargement computed tomography performed to assess therapeutic response, so paraneoplastic IgA vasculitis considered. diagnosed based a biopsy skin lesion and histology an upper gastrointestinal hemorrhagic mucosal erosion. As can lead serious or systemic complications, should be considered as...
For sebaceous carcinoma (SC), a rare malignant tumor, no standard chemotherapy regimen for patients with distant metastasis has been studied. We experienced case of eyelid SC multiple lung metastases that responded to combination carboplatin and paclitaxel 11-month progression-free survival (PFS). This patient also second-line treatment docetaxel, another taxane, 7-month PFS, resulting in at least 18 months the time reporting. report shows taxane-based may be effective advanced SC, which...
A 40-year-old man with a diagnosis of lung adenocarcinoma (cT4N3M1c, stage IVB) experienced worsening lymphangitic carcinomatosis in the right and pleural effusion after receiving 1 cycle first-line chemotherapy consisting cisplatin pemetrexed. Bevacizumab was thus added from second cisplatin-pemetrexed regimen, leading to marked improvement pulmonary decrease effusion. Subsequently, maintenance therapy pemetrexed bevacizumab continued, successfully long-term progression-free survival....
Dacomitinib significantly improves progression-free survival and overall (OS) compared with gefitinib in patients non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-activating mutations. However, dacomitinib often causes skin toxicities, resulting treatment discontinuation. We aimed to evaluate a prophylactic strategy for toxicity induced by dacomitinib.We performed single-arm, prospective, open-label, multi-institutional phase II trial comprehensive...
Necitumumab plus gemcitabine and cisplatin (GCN) is a standard therapy for patients with advanced lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSqCC).
