May 5th, 2021 - Brain metastasis (BM) frequently occurs in patients with cutaneous melanoma, lung, and breast cancer; although, BM rarely arises from cancers of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). The reported incidence of GIT cancer BM is less than 4%. In the last...

May 2nd, 2021 - This study aims to genomically characterize melanoma of unknown primary (MUP) in comparison to melanomas of cutaneous primary (MCP). Eligible cases were collected from the MSK-IMPACT™ Clinical Sequencing Cohort published in the cBioPortal database...

Apr 27th, 2021 - The peritumoral region (PTR) in glioblastoma (GBM) represents a combination of infiltrative tumor and vasogenic edema, which are indistinguishable on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We developed a radiomic signature by using imaging data from lo...

Apr 24th, 2021 - There is no clinical evidence supporting the effectiveness of trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) for treating advanced gastric cancer (AGC) with brain metastasis. This is a case of a 65-year-old man with human epidermal growth factor-2 (HER2)-positive...

Nov 29th, 2019 - In Ontario, Canada, there is increasing demand for stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for brain metastases. Recommendations for safe SRS delivery are needed to ensure that patients receive an equitable level of care across the province. This guidelin...

Jan 8th, 2019 - This series of guidelines was constructed to assess the most current and clinically relevant evidence for management of metastatic brain tumors. They set a benchmark regarding the current evidence base for this management while also highlighting i...

Jun 24th, 2018 - Patients with brain metastases should receive appropriate local therapy and systemic therapy, if indicated. Local therapies include surgery, whole-brain radiotherapy, and stereotactic radiosurgery. Treatments depend on factors such as patient prog...

Feb 14th, 2018 - Previous studies have demonstrated the association between EGFR mutations and distant metastasis. However, the association for subsequent brain metastasis (BM) in stages I-III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients remains inconclusive. We co...

Apr 16th, 2017 - To systematically review the evidence for the radiotherapeutic and surgical management of patients newly diagnosed with intraparenchymal brain metastases.

Oct 27th, 2020 - Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) should replace whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT) as the new standard of care for patients with four or more brain metastases, say researchers who report results from a randomized trial conducted in patients with four ...

May 20th, 2019 - Discussion The CT findings of a mass with associated edema, along with his history of lung cancer, strongly suggested brain metastasis (Figure 1). (Enlarge Image) Figure 1. In this case, a solitary metastasis must be differentiated from a primary ...

May 15th, 2019 - Younger patients with non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) may have better survival, despite higher rates of brain metastasis and driver mutations, according to results from a retrospective analysis. “We carried out a comprehensive analysis of patie.

Mar 17th, 2019 - A comprehensive literature review of brain metastasis in brain cancer found that the most common symptoms included headache (35%), vomiting (26%), nausea (23%), hemiparesis (22%), visual changes (13%), and seizures (12%). Other symptoms associated...

Mar 13th, 2019 - This transcript has been edited for clarity. Hello. This is Mark Kris from Memorial Sloan Kettering (MSK), talking today about a common and difficult problem both for patients and practitioners, and that is the treatment of brain metastases. I'm g...
