Background: The optimal number of examined lymph nodes (ELN) for accurate staging and prognosis for esophageal cancer patients receiving neoadjuvant therapy remains controversial. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of ELN count on pathologic staging and survival outcomes and to develop a predictive model for lymph node positivity in this patient population.

Methods: Data were extracted from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database and a multicenter cohort.

Background: This study analyzed a large national cohort to compare treatment strategies and survival outcomes in metaplastic breast cancer (MtBC), a rare and aggressive subtype with poor treatment response.

Patients And Methods: Adult female patients with MtBC diagnosed between 2006 and 2021 were identified from the National Cancer Database and grouped by chemotherapy sequence (neoadjuvant vs. adjuvant) to evaluate clinical characteristics and survival outcomes.

Objectives: To evaluate the association between the KRAS mutational load and the histologic tumor response in patients with resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) who received neoadjuvant treatment (NAC) with pegylated liposomal irinotecan in combination with oxaliplatin, 5-fluorouracil, and leucovorin (NALIRIFOX).

Methods: This was a multicenter, single-arm, interventional, open-label, phase 2 trial in patients 18 years or older who had histologically or cytologically confirmed PDAC and were candidates for surgery and received neoadjuvant NALIRIFOX. The primary outcome was determination of the association between the KRAS mutational load and the histologic tumor response after chemotherapy.

Introduction: The prognosis of anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) remains poor. Mutation-based targeted therapies and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) have gained increasing importance in the treatment of advanced tumor stages. This study aimed to investigate whether mutation-based neoadjuvant therapy can convert an initially unresectable tumor into a resectable state, optimizing local tumor control and prolonging overall survival.
