NSCLC First Line Therapy Chemotherapy Combinations
NSCLC First Line Therapy Chemotherapy Combinations Overview This retrospective study explores optimal first-line treatments for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with brain metastases (BMs) lacking driver gene alterations. The research compares the effectiveness of immunotherapy plus chemotherapy (ICI+Chemo) against bevacizumab plus chemotherapy (Beva+Chemo). The study, conducted between March 2017 and May
Remission of Renal Cell Carcinoma With Brain Metastases: A Case Study
Remission of Renal Cell Carcinoma With Brain Metastases: A Case Study Cases of complete remission of cancers with brain metastases are very rare. It’s often brought by tyrosine kinase inhibitor monotherapy in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma. For metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) patients, the case of brain metastasis has been
Metastatic Melanoma and Follow-Up MRI Scans
Metastatic Melanoma and Follow-Up MRI Scans Metastatic melanoma is an aggressive tumor, which may spread to organs either by local invasion, or lymphatic or hematogenous dissemination. Central Nervous System (CNS), especially the brain, account for up to 50% of metastasis. Skin, lymph nodes, lung, and liver are other commonly involved organs,
Lung Cancer with Brain Metastasis After Late-Onset Bipolar Disorder: A Case Report
Lung Cancer with Brain Metastasis After Late-Onset Bipolar Disorder: A Case Report Background Bipolar disorder is a multifactorial illness with uncertain etiology and geriatric new-onset manic episodes are highly associated with secondary organic causes. The presented case demonstrates the importance of excluding secondary causes during the entire disease course. Overview Bipolar disorder is a
