We present a case of a man in his early 30s who developed four episodes of reactive infectious mucocutaneous eruption (RIME), in association with different infectious pathogens.RIME is a recently implemented term to describe mucocutaneous eruptions associated with respiratory pathogens. These eruptions are characterised by predominant mucosal involvement of two or more mucous membranes and limited cutaneous involvement.

Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) is a highly prevalent cancer and the majority of cSCC have a good prognosis. However, a subset of cSCC can progress to advanced disease. We present the first reported case of a giant cSCC located on the breast.

Between March 2014 and April 2017, we recruited patients with mCRPC ( = 168) prior to ARSi in a cohort study encompassing 10 European centers. Blood samples were collected for comprehensive profiling of CellSearch-enriched circulating tumor cells (CTC) and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA).

Objective: To investigate the prognostic value of circulating tumor cell (CTC) enumeration and dynamics, in the context of second-line endocrine therapies (ie, abiraterone acetate or enzalutamide), irrespective of prior systemic therapies.
Design, Settings, And Participants: In a prospective, multicentre study blood samples for CTC enumeration were collected from patients with mCRPC at baseline (n = 174).
