Article Abstract

Purvish M ParikhS-1 (5-fluorouracil prodrug [tegafur] in combination with 5-chloro-2,4-dihydroxypyridine [CDHP] and potassium oxonate [OXO]) was first approved in 1999. In order to make it easy for community oncologists, we decided to put together this expert consensus guideline for its use in gastrointestinal (GI) malignancies. A total of 15 subject matter experts used modified Delphi method to discuss, analyze, and vote on key aspects regarding practical approach to use of S-1 in GI cancers, a process involving 6 months of work. The consensus guidelines specify how S-1 use can be optimized in patients with colorectal, gastric, and pancreatic tumors. The voting for the 17 key points resulted in a majority consensus for all the statements (approval ranging from 13/15 [87%] to 15/15 [100%]). S-1 is a combination of three drugs (tegafur, CDHP, and OXO) specifically designed to reduce toxicity and enhance efficacy; clinical data and meta-analysis confirm both factors; and it is recommended as standard of care for GI cancers. S-1 is approved and one of the standards of care for all lines of therapy in colorectal cancer and pancreatic cancers. S-1 with oxaliplatin is the standard of care for gastric cancers.

Purpose: The study aims to compare the treatment recommendations generated by four leading large language models (LLMs) with those from 21 sarcoma centers' multidisciplinary tumor boards (MTBs) of the sarcoma ring trial in managing complex soft tissue sarcoma (STS) cases.

Methods: We simulated STS-MTBs using four LLMs-Llama 3.2-vison: 90b, Claude 3.

Functional high risk multiple myeloma (FHRMM) remains a challenging entity with poor outcomes and limited survival, and there is no international consensus on optimal second-line therapeutic strategies in relapsed/refractory patients. In this multicenter real-world retrospective study, we investigated clinical characteristics and outcomes of a total of 62 FHRMM patients previously treated with a first-line daratumumab-based quadruplet regimen or who relapsed within 12 months after frontline autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). In our cohort, the overall response rate was 61%, with 42% of patients achieving a very good partial response (VGPR) or better.

Neuromuscular diseases are often accompanied by various types of sleep-related breathing disorders, which can exacerbate the underlying condition and are associated with a poor prognosis. Early identification is essential, and interventions such as non-invasive ventilation, oxygen therapy, and respiratory rehabilitation should be initiated promptly to mitigate disease progression and improve outcomes. Nevertheless, the rates of missed and misdiagnosed cases remain common in clinical practice.

Background And Purpose: To date, no consensus guidelines have been published that systematically guide delineation of primary and nodal Clinical Target Volumes (CTVs) in patients who require post-operative radiotherapy (PORT) for mucosal Head and Neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). As a result, significant individual, institutional and national variation exists in the way that CTVs are delineated in the post-operative setting, leading to considerable heterogeneity in radiotherapy treatment.

Methods: A multi-disciplinary group of experts convened by the European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology (ESTRO) set-out principles for the multi-disciplinary management of oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OCSCC).

Background: Acute viral respiratory infections (AVRIs) rank among the most common causes of hospitalisation worldwide, imposing significant healthcare burdens and driving the development of pharmacological treatments. However, inconsistent outcome reporting across clinical trials limits evidence synthesis and its translation into clinical practice. A core outcome set (COS) for pharmacological treatments in hospitalised adults with AVRIs is essential to standardise trial outcomes and improve research comparability.
