BackgroundNeoangiogenesis plays a crucial role in the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and concerns have been raised about neoangiogenesis on effectiveness transarterial chemoembolization (TACE).AimIn this study, we aimed to evaluate Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-1α (HIF-1α) as circulating prognostic biomarkers HCC patients treated with TACE.MethodsBlood samples were collected from 163 before (t0) four weeks after TACE (t1).ResultsHigher...
Abstract Background & Aims According to the Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) staging system, monofocal hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is classified as early (BCLC A) irrespective of its size, even though controversies still exist regarding and treatment large tumours. We aimed at evaluating appropriate for (>5 cm) (HCC). Methods From Italian database, we selected 924 patients with small HCC (2‐5 cm; SEM‐HCC), 163 larger tumours LEM‐HCC) 1048 intermediate stage B).

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly aggressive disease with limited survival. Curative opportunities are only available for patients resectable cancer. Palliative chemotherapy the current standard of care unresectable tumors. Numerous efforts have been made to investigate new therapeutic strategies PDAC. Immunotherapy has found be effective in treating tumors high microsatellite instability (MSI-H), including The ability Endoscopic Ultrasound Fine Needle Biopsy (EUS-FNB)...
