Article Abstract
Prostate cancer is the most frequent epithelial neoplasia after skin cancer in men starting from 50 years and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) dosage can be used as an early screening tool. Prostate cancer imaging includes several radiological modalities, ranging from ultrasonography, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance to nuclear medicine hybrid techniques such as single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/CT and positron emission tomography (PET)/CT. Innovation in radiopharmaceutical compounds has introduced specific tracers with diagnostic and therapeutic indications, opening the horizons to targeted and very effective clinical care for patients with prostate cancer. The aim of the present review is to illustrate the current knowledge and future perspectives of nuclear medicine, including stand-alone diagnostic techniques and theragnostic approaches, in the clinical management of patients with prostate cancer from initial staging to advanced disease.

Rhabdomyosarcoma in Pediatric Patients Under 2 Years: Clinical Features and Outcome.
J Pediatr Hematol Oncol

Department of Pediatric, The University of Jordan.
Background: Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) typically responds well to a combination of treatments with favorable prognosis in children 1 to 9 years old. However, infants may fare worse due to receiving less aggressive local therapy for concerns about long-term effects of surgery/radiation. This study investigates the clinical characteristics, treatment approach, and survival outcomes of RMS in children under 2.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are critical regulators of gene expression in cancer biology, yet their spatial dynamics within tumor microenvironments (TMEs) remain underexplored due to technical limitations in current spatial transcriptomics (ST) technologies. To address this gap, we present STmiR, a novel XGBoost-based framework for spatially resolved miRNA activity prediction. STmiR integrates bulk RNA-seq data (TCGA and CCLE) with spatial transcriptomics profiles to model nonlinear miRNA-mRNA interactions, achieving high predictive accuracy (Spearman's ρ > 0.

Human Kallikrein 2 (KLK2) is a prostate cancer tissue specific protein that is regulated by androgen receptor (AR) signaling. KLK2 was not previously recognized as a therapeutic target as it is secreted. It has now been demonstrated that KLK2 is expressed on the cell surface and targetable by various methodologies.

This study focuses on designing and developing a novel three-dimensional porphyrinic covalent organic framework (3D-Por-COF) to enhance anticancer sono-photodynamic therapy (SPDT). Leveraging the unique structural advantages of 3D COFs, this work addresses the limitations of traditional 2D-Por-COFs, particularly regarding reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and therapeutic efficacy. The newly developed 3D-Por-COF demonstrated significantly higher ROS generation under combined sonodynamic and photodynamic conditions, leading to an improved therapeutic effect against prostate cancer cells.

Importance: Patients with advanced cancer frequently receive broad-spectrum antibiotics, but changing use patterns across the end-of-life trajectory remain poorly understood.
Objective: To describe the patterns of broad-spectrum antibiotic use across defined end-of-life intervals in patients with advanced cancer.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This nationwide, population-based, retrospective cohort study used data from the South Korean National Health Insurance Service database to examine broad-spectrum antibiotic use among patients with advanced cancer who died between July 1, 2002, and December 31, 2021.
