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

Objective: To access the feasibility of palliative cystoprostatectomy/pelvic exenteration in patients with bladder/rectal invasion due to prostate cancer (PC).

La radiomique permet d’extraire des données quantitatives géométriques et texturales de l’imagerie médicale. Notre objectif était d’évaluer l’intérêt de la radiomique à partir de l’imagerie par résonance magnétique pour la prédiction du stade et du grade du cancer de la prostate (CaP)

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.

La relation entre syndrome métabolique (SM) et cancer de la prostate (CaP) demeure controversée et très peu d’études se sont adressées aux populations d’ascendance africaine.

In most cases, metastatic breast cancer remains an incurable disease. A PIK3CA mutation is detected in 30-40% of all hormone receptor-positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-) advanced breast cancers. PIK3CA activating mutations have been linked to endocrine resistance.

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.

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.

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.
