Adjuvant Weekly Paclitaxel and Trastuzumab for HER2-Positive Early-Stage Breast Cancer with Preserved Baseline LVEF: Incidence of Cardiotoxicity and Feasibility of Simplified Cardiac Surveillance. (PubMed, Breast Cancer (Dove Med Press))
No changes in the LVEF or GLS that required treatment interruption occurred, and cardiac biomarkers remained normal. Among patients with HER2-positive early-stage breast cancer who received paclitaxel and trastuzumab, had a preserved baseline LVEF, and had no anthracycline exposure, the cardiotoxicity incidence was low, suggesting that cardiac monitoring may be simplified in this population.

Linkage Between miR-218-2 (rs11134527) Genetic Polymorphism and Breast Cancer Risk: A Case-Control Study in the Bangladeshi Women. (PubMed, Health Sci Rep)
Chemotherapy was the principal treatment (62.12%), with cyclophosphamide (69.62%), doxorubicin (53.80%), and paclitaxel (56.33%) as the most prescribed agents. Significant associations were also observed under the recessive model (AA vs. GG + AG: OR = 1.96, 95% CI = 1.0-3.86, p = 0.051) and the allelic model (A vs G: OR = 1.59, 95% CI = 1.06-2.39, p = 0.026). The miR-218-2 rs11134527 A allele confers an increased risk of breast cancer in Bangladeshi women, supporting its potential role as a population-specific genetic biomarker for susceptibility assessment.

Endometrial Neuroendocrine Carcinoma With Widespread Metastases: Diagnostic and Therapeutic Challenges in a Rare Malignancy. (PubMed, Cureus)
She underwent urgent T1 laminectomy with C5-T3 fusion, followed by systemic therapy with carboplatin/paclitaxel plus pembrolizumab, and later transitioned to carboplatin/etoposide. Histopathology confirmed small-cell NEC with squamous differentiation; expert review favored a poorly differentiated/dedifferentiated endometrial carcinoma with neuroendocrine and squamoid features. This case illustrates an atypical initial presentation with neurologic deficits from spinal metastases, emphasizing the need for prompt recognition and multidisciplinary management.

Network Pharmacology and Metabolomics to Uncover the Multi-Target Anti-Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Mechanism of Baicalin Mediated by Purine Metabolism. (PubMed, Curr Drug Metab)
BA exerts its anti-NSCLC effects via multi-target regulation of oncogenic signaling and metabolic reprogramming. This offers preliminary insights that could inform future applications in metabolic-targeted therapies and combination treatments.

Navigating controversies in stage III NSCLC: a multidisciplinary case discussion on evolving treatment paradigms. (PubMed, Lung Cancer)
The case underscores current controversies in the management of stage III NSCLC and the critical role of the MDT. While neoadjuvant and perioperative chemo-immunotherapy offers an opportunity for less extensive surgical resection and improved oncological outcomes, this strategy is not without risks and validated biomarkers to guide decision making are lacking. Concurrent chemoradiotherapy (cCRT) followed by durvalumab remains the standard for fit patients with unresectable or inoperable stage III disease. Future progress depends on clinical trials, biomarker development, and real-world data collection and national audits.
