Abstract Purpose: Colorectal cancers are classified as right/left-sided based on whether they occur before/after the splenic flexure, with established differences in molecular subtypes and outcomes. However, it is unclear if this division optimal precise tumor location provides further information. Experimental Design: In 1,876 patients colorectal cancer, we compared mutation prevalence overall survival (OS) according to side location. Consensus subtype (CMS) was a separate cohort of 608...
Abstract Limited clinical activity has been seen in osteosarcoma (OS) patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI). To gain insights into the immunogenic potential of these tumors, we conducted whole genome, RNA, and T-cell receptor sequencing, immunohistochemistry reverse phase protein array profiling (RPPA) on OS specimens from 48 pediatric adult primary, relapsed, metastatic OS. Median infiltrate level was lower than other tumor types where ICI are effective, concomitant low...
Aspirin and non-aspirin non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are preventive against cardiovascular disease (CVD) several cancer types, but long-term use has been associated with significant health risks, resulting in conflicting recommendations on NSAID for prevention of CVD cancer. Previous research indicates that aspirin increases age risk factors a large percentage the US population regularly analgesics, including NSAIDs, there not recent, in-depth assessment prevalence, changes...
During the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, gun violence (GV) in United States (U.S.) was postulated to increase strain on already taxed healthcare resources, such as blood products, intensive care beds, personal protective equipment, and even hospital staff. This report aims estimate relative risk of GV U.S. during pandemic compared before pandemic. Daily police reports corresponding gun-related injuries deaths 50 states District Columbia from February 1st, 2019, March 31st,...
SMAD4 is an essential mediator in the transforming growth factor-β pathway. Sporadic mutations of are present 2.1–20.0% colorectal cancers (CRCs) but data limited. In this study, we aimed to evaluate clinicopathologic characteristics, prognosis, and clinical outcome associated with mutation CRC cases. Data for patients metastatic or unresectable who underwent genotyping received treatment at The University Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center from 2000 2014 were reviewed. Their tumors sequenced...
Abstract Purpose: AT-rich interactive domain 1A (ARID1A) is commonly mutated in colorectal cancer, frequently resulting truncation and loss of protein expression. ARID1A recruits MSH2 for mismatch repair during DNA replication. deficiency promotes hypermutability immune activation preclinical models, but its role patients with cancer being explored. Experimental Design: The sequencing gene expression profiling were extracted from Cancer Genome Atlas MD Anderson Center databases, validation...
Breast density is associated with breast cancer risk in women aged 40 to 65 years, but there limited evidence of its association among years or older.To compare the between and invasive 74 vs 75 older evaluate whether modified by body mass index (BMI).This prospective cohort study used data from Cancer Surveillance Consortium January 1, 1996, December 31, 2012, for US who underwent screening mammography. Data were analyzed 2018, 2020.Breast Imaging Reporting System category, age, BMI.The...

The mucinous histologic subtype accounts for 5% to 20% of colorectal cancer (CRC) cases but remains poorly characterized. present study characterized the baseline characteristics, mutational profile, and clinical outcomes patients diagnosed with CRC.
