A decade of EGFR inhibition in EGFR-mutated non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC): Old successes and future perspectives

TL;DR: A comprehensive review of the major progresses reported so far in the EGFR inhibition in this molecularly-selected subgroup of NSCLC patients, from the early successes with first generation EGFR TKIs, Erlotinib and Gefitinib, to the novel irreversible and mutant-selective inhibitors and ultimately the emerging challenges that the authors, in the next future, are called to deal with.
Journal ArticleDOI

NSCLC and HER2: between lights and shadows.

TL;DR: The aim of this article is to provide an overview of the role of HER2 dysregulation in NSCLC, trying to throw a light not only on the strengths but also the weaknesses of the studies conducted so far, generating a growing interest upon this oncogenic driver.
Journal ArticleDOI

Androgen Receptor (AR), E-Cadherin, and Ki-67 as Emerging Targets and Novel Prognostic Markers in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) Patients

TL;DR: The data suggest that the combination of AR and E-cadherin expression as well as Ki-67 status might be useful prognostic markers in TNBC and could play an interesting role to classify subgroups of TNBC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Paclitaxel and cisplatin in patients with recurrent and metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

TL;DR: Paclitaxel plus cisplatin combination is an active regimen with an acceptable safety profile in recurrent/metastatic HNSCC and is a valid alternative to infusional fluorouracil (5FU)/cisplatin, according to the opinion.
