Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most common causes of cancer in the world and the second leading cause of cancer deaths among women. Mortality is associated mainly with the development of metastases. Identification of the mechanisms involved in metastasis formation is, therefore, a major public health issue.

n situ chemical reduction (ISCR) has been identified as a possible way for the remediation of soils contaminated by chlordecone (CLD). Evidences provided by the literature indicate an association between the development of prostate cancer and CLD exposure (Multigner et al. 2010).

It is well known that the intestine absorbs nutrients, electrolytes, and water. Chikina et al. recently demonstrated that it is also able to sense, recognize, and block the absorption of toxins through a very sophisticated interactive cellular cooperation between novel subpopulations of macrophages and epithelial cells.

Many patients with HR+, HER2- early breast cancer (EBC) will not experience recurrence or have distant recurrence with currently available standard therapies. However, up to 30% of patients with high-risk clinical and/or pathologic features may experience distant recurrence, many in the first few years.

Background: Clinical benefit from programmed cell death 1 receptor (PD-1) inhibitors relies on reinvigoration of endogenous antitumor immunity. Nonetheless, robust immunological markers, based on circulating immune cell subsets associated with therapeutic efficacy are yet to be validated.

Emerging data suggest that the combination of MEK inhibitors and immunotherapeutic agents may result in improved efficacy in melanoma. We evaluated whether combining MEK inhibition and immune checkpoint inhibition was more efficacious than immune checkpoint inhibition alone in patients with previously untreated BRAFV600 wild-type advanced melanoma.

Purpose: Report results of the phase Ib dose-escalation/expansion study of triplet therapy with cyclin-dependent kinases 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor (ribociclib), mTOR inhibitor (everolimus), and endocrine therapy (exemestane).

The purpose of the guidelines national committee ccAFU was to propose updated french guidelines for prostate cancer.

Le cancer de la prostate de risque intermédiaire est désormais classé en pronostic favorable et défavorable, en fonction du score ISUP, du PSA, du toucher rectal et du pourcentage de biopsies positives. Notre objectif était d’évaluer l’apport de l’imagerie et des biopsies ciblées pour améliorer cette classification à partir de l’analyse du stade histopathologique après prostatectomie totale.

Chlordecone, an organochlorine insecticide, was widely used in the French West Indies banana plantations. We set up a cohort of banana plantation workers who worked between 1973 and 1993, the period of authorized use of chlordecone. Vital status and causes of death were collected from French national registries.
