Article Abstract
Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is the most common soft tissue sarcoma in childhood and adolescence. The availability of appropriate and well-characterized preclinical models for RMS is limited, posing a challenge for investigating the molecular mechanisms and evaluating new targeted compounds in preclinical settings. Here, we collected 51 RMS specimens (referred to as ZJUCH-RMS cohort) and established 9 patient-derived cells (PDCs) and validated the identity of these cells by the expression of RMS-specific markers. Whole-transcriptome analysis identified high-confidence mutations in ZJUCH-RMS cohort including , , , , and . Further studies showed that RMS PDCs retained the genetic alterations and the expression of RMS hallmark and dependency genes in matched primary tumors and acted as valuable tools to assess drug responses and pharmacogenomic interactions. Our study provides unique PDCs that are available for preclinical studies of RMS and further advances the feasibility of RMS PDCs as valuable tools for developing personalized treatments for patients.

Background: Sarcomas are rare cancer with a heterogeneous group of tumors. They affect both genders across all age groups and present significant heterogeneity, with more than 70 histological subtypes. Despite tailored treatments, the high metastatic potential of sarcomas remains a major factor in poor patient survival, as metastasis is often the leading cause of death.

Purpose: Expanding high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine coverage in resource-constrained settings is critical to bridging the cervical cancer gap and achieving the global action plan for elimination. Mobile health (mHealth) technology via short message services (SMS) has the potential to improve HPV vaccination uptake. The mHealth-HPVac study evaluated the effectiveness of mHealth interventions in increasing HPV vaccine uptake among mothers of unvaccinated girls aged 9-14 years in Lagos, Nigeria.

Pediatric pancreatic neuroblastoma is a rare cancer in children, with only limited cases available in the literature. We report a case of a 4-year-old girl diagnosed with high-risk pancreatic neuroblastoma. The girl was treated with induction chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplant and maintenance with 13-cis-retinoic acid.

Background: Metastases in the lateral pelvic lymph nodes or mesenteric lymph nodes represent distinct categories of mid-low rectal cancer. This study investigated the patterns of mesenteric and lateral pelvic lymph node metastases in mid-low rectal cancer; the survival benefit of postoperative treatment was also analysed in these groups.
Methods: This retrospective multicentre study included consecutive patients with mid-low rectal cancer who underwent total mesorectal excision with lateral pelvic lymph node dissection in three Chinese institutions between 2012 and 2020.
