Primary resistance to osimertinib due to SCLC transformation: Issue of T790M determination on liquid re-biopsy.

TL;DR: Although liquid biopsy is a relevant tool to diagnose T790M presence in NSCLC patients resistant to EGFR-TKI, in case of a low ratio T790m/activating mutation, tissue biopsy should be considered to exclude the presence of SCLC transformation and/or other concomitant resistance mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Osteonecrosis of the Jaw and Angiogenesis inhibitors: A Revival of a Rare but Serous Side Effect.

TL;DR: This paper provides a detailed description of clinical evidences upon the relationship between anti-angiogenic drugs and ONJ and concludes that ONJ must be always carefully investigated and prevented with a multidisciplinary approach involving oncologist, radiation oncologists and skilled dental practitioner when a cancer patient must begin a BP or an antiangIogenic treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
