Review
This article reviews the cutaneous side effects of main molecularly targeted cancer therapies for solid tumors.
Review
Over the past ten years, sorafenib has been the only systemic agent approved for first-line treatment of patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and in a second-line setting, most investigational drugs have failed to provide better survival outcomes than placebo. However, in 2016, data from the RESORCE trial, a phase 3 study evaluating regorafenib in HCC patients who experience disease progression after first-line treatment with sorafenib, have shown a 2.8-month median survival benefit over placebo (10.6 versus 7.8 months).
Editorial
This editorial describes the results of the most recent clinical trials on the use of immunotherapies in renal cell carcinoma and research for reliable biomarkers of tumour response in this setting, as well as the role of the gut microbiome and tumour microenvironment in the development of future therapeutic strategies.
