Survival outcomes and relapses in testicular DLBCL
Introduction Primary testicular lymphoma, which accounts for less than 2% of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) cases, has similarities to extra-nodal NHL that occurs in immune-privileged sites, such as the eye and central nervous system (CNS).1 Pathologically, 80–90% of primary testicular lymphoma cases demonstrate diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) with non-germinal center/activated…

Pancreatic adenocarcinomas without KRAS, TP53, CDKN2A and SMAD4 mutations and CDKN2A/CDKN2B copy number alterations: a review of the genomic landscape to unveil therapeutic avenues
Background: Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is one of the cancers with the worst prognosis. The current treatment paradigm based on combination chemotherapy has improved survival over the last decade, but the disease is still fatal in most cases. New therapies exploiting the increasing understanding of the molecular pathology of the disease are…
