Abstract Background Anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity (AIC), a condition associated with multiple mechanisms of damage, including oxidative stress, has been poor clinical outcomes. Carvedilol, β-blocker unique antioxidant properties, emerged as strategy to prevent AIC, but recent trials question its effectiveness. Some evidence suggests that the antioxidant, not effect, could related cardiotoxicity. However, carvedilol’s effects are probably enough manifestations in certain cases. We...

e15088 Background: The neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase genes NTRK1-3 encode the tropomyosin proteins TRKA, TRKB, and TRKC, respectively. TRK fusions lead to overexpression of chimeric protein, resulting in constitutively active, ligand-independent downstream signaling. NTRKs act as oncogenes, they can be targeted, it is estimated that are present up 0.3% tumors. incidence actionable alterations these currently unknown Latin-American patients. We investigated presence...
