DOI: 10.1001/jamaoncol.2024.2133
Abstract: Importance BRAF/MEK inhibitors revolutionized the treatment of BRAF V600E-variant anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (BRAFv-ATC), offering improved outcomes for patients with this previously incurable disease. Observations Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) accounts for approximately half of thyroid cancer-related… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/1878-0261.13396
Abstract: Furin belongs to the pro-protein convertases (PCs) family and its aberrant expression has been documented in various types of cancers; however, its role in thyroid cancer remains unclear. We investigated the expression of furin in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/hon.2594
Abstract: Hairy cell leukemia (HCL) responds initially very well to chemotherapy with purine analogues. However, up to 50% of patients relapse, often multiple times, and become progressively less sensitive to these myelotoxic and immune‐suppressive drugs. At… read more here.
