Article Abstract

A 67-year-old woman with a history of follicular lymphoma and recurrent breast cancer with multiple metastasis developed PML during receiving fluvestrant plus palbociclib. Rituximab and bendamustine had finished 6.5 years ago. Discontinuing palbociclib and using mirtazapine, she is alive a year after diagnosis of PML. It is rare for PML to be diagnosed long after the last dose of rituximab and bendamustine. We will discuss the possible involvement of palbociclib in the course of PML.

Background: With the availability of more advanced and effective treatments, life expectancy has improved among patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC), but this makes communication with their medical oncologist more complex. Some patients struggle to learn about their therapeutic options and to understand and articulate their preferences. Mobile health (mHealth) apps can enhance patient-provider communication, playing a crucial role in the diagnosis, treatment, quality of life, and outcomes for patients living with MBC.

Background: Iron metabolism may influence breast cancer development; however, links between iron-related biomarkers and breast cancer remain inconclusive. Given differences in iron status by menopausal status, we examined associations of ferritin and other iron biomarkers, with breast cancer incidence, stratified by menopausal status, in a Korean screening cohort.

Methods: This cohort study included 140,747 Korean women screened for breast cancer from 2011-2020.

Background: Alcohol consumption is a risk factor for certain cancers and is increasing in the United States. We estimated the impact of alcohol consumption on cancer incidence trends in the United States from 2008-2019 across six alcohol-related cancers among men and women.

Methods: Average daily alcohol consumption (ADC) was calculated from the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS, 1998-2009) and adjusted to per capita sales data to account for underreporting alcohol use.
