Background Pembrolizumab monotherapy is an established front-line treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) tumor proportion score (TPS)≥50%. However, real-world data on its long-term efficacy remains sparse. Methods This study assessed 5-year outcomes of first-line pembrolizumab in a large, multicenter, cohort patients NSCLC and PD-L1 TPS≥50%, referred to as Pembro-real 5Y. Individual patient-level (IPD) from the experimental arm...
The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in radical changes the delivery of healthcare worldwide.

Abstract Introduction Early discontinuation of endocrine therapy (ET) is higher among patients with early breast cancer (EBC) compared to metastatic hormone receptor-positive (HR+) (MBC). In our clinical experience the reasons for this may include a significant burden ET side effects impacting quality life (QOL) in EBC. We hypothesized that QOL lower HR + EBC MBC on ET. Methods conducted cross-sectional observational study assess utilizing FACT-ES & EORTC QLQ C30 tools and receiving...
Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) is considered to be one of the most virulent, treatment-refractory malignancies. Recent molecular insights into biology have transformed ATC management, and BRAF/MEK targeted therapy now incorporated guideline-based multidisciplinary care. We report visceral perforation in setting an extreme response such a patient with ATC. Molecularly afforded dramatic but life-threatening treatment. This highlights complexities care for treating clinicians.
To investigate the feasibility of implementing a remote patient monitoring system using an electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePROs) platform in tertiary cancer center Republic Ireland.Patients receiving oral chemotherapy and oncology clinicians were invited to participate study. Patients asked submit weekly symptom questionnaires through ePRO mobile phone application (app)-ONCOpatient®. Clinical staff use ONCOpatient® clinician interface. After 8 weeks all participants submitted...
