Minimally invasive surgery for nonendometrioid endometrial cancer performs comparably as open surgery, yielding similar survival outcomes, a recent study has found.

The risk of disease recurrence is increased among rectal cancer patients treated with dose-capped chemoradiotherapy (CRT), reveals a study. In addition, excessive toxicity has occurred among those dosed by actual body surface area (BSA) compared to patients in the dose-capped group.

The novel CRAFITY score—which takes into account C-reactive protein (CRP), alpha-foetoprotein (AFP), and immunotherapy—can be used to reliably assess survival and radiological response in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a recent study has found. Future validation is needed before CRAFITY can be deployed to the clinics.

Negative upper endoscopy findings in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) indicate lower risk of developing upper gastrointestinal cancer, a new study has found.

Combining the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte (PLR) ratios with existing diagnostic methods helps improve early detection of second primary cancers (SPC) after initial gastric cancer (GC), a recent study has found.

Cancer patients receiving either low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) or direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) show comparable frequency of venous thromboembolism (VTE), reports a recent study.
