Among women aged up to 49 years with a pregnancy-associated melanoma, recurrence rates were higher than seen in other groups.
In posttreatment follow-up of lung and esophageal cancer, PET scans might be overused to detect cancer recurrence. Furthermore, PET scan use to detect recurrence does not increase survival.
No increase in locoregional recurrence, systemic recurrence, or second breast cancer observed following breast lipofilling procedure.
A simple blood test can identify post-chemo patients with the NPM1 gene mutation.
No significant difference in survival was observed with VTE, but odds of esophageal cancer ecurrence are increased.
T cells from patients whose breast cancer had recently recurred showed weak response to the HER2 receptor protein, according to a recent study. The study findings suggest that immune status monitoring may be used to gauge the risk of recurrence.
Increased rates of event-free surviva were seen with lthe use of arsenic trioxide consolidation for children newly diagnosed with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL).
Incurable astrocytomas grow into healthy brain tissue like mycelium. Therefore, these tumors cannot be completely removed by surgery and invariably start growing again at some point despite intensive treatment.
In the study, management was changed in 44% more cases by Use of the imaging agent Ga-68 PSMA with PET/CT resulted in a change in management of prostate cancer in 44% more cases than with another widely used agent.
Shutting down the healing action of certain white blood cells triggered by chemotherapy may help prevent the spread of cancer.
