Circulating Tumor DNA Is Associated with Response and Survival in Patients with Advanced Leiomyosarcoma

TL;DR: The results demonstrate that detection of ctDNA is associated with outcome and objective response to chemotherapy in patients with advanced LMS and suggest that liquid biopsy assays could be used to inform treatment decisions by recognizing patients who are likely and unlikely to benefit from chemotherapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

MAIN-CAV: Phase III randomized trial of maintenance cabozantinib and avelumab versus avelumab after first-line platinum-based chemotherapy in patients (pts) with metastatic urothelial cancer (mUC; Alliance A032001).

TL;DR: The MAIN-CAV trial as discussed by the authors is a randomized, multicenter, international trial for locally advanced/mUC patients who do not progress after 4-6 cycles of any platinum-based chemotherapy (gem-cis, gem-carbo, MVAC or ddMVAC).
Journal ArticleDOI

Increased expression of folate receptor-α (FRA) in triple-negative breast cancer: A potential therapeutic target.

TL;DR: A large number of breast cancer tumors including 4 benign, 33 ER+, 26 HER2+, and 68 triple negative (TN) were constructed into tissue microarrays (TMAs) and FRA expression was analyzed by immunohistochemistry using a high affinity FRA antibody.
