Association of systemic antioxidant status and oxidative stress markers in women with endometrial cancer compared with agematched controls. (PubMed, Afr J Reprod Health)
Notably, antioxidant levels showed inverse correlations with several oxidative markers, and lower levels of glutathione and vitamin C were independently linked to higher endometrial cancer risk. These findings suggest that redox imbalance plays a critical role in endometrial carcinogenesis and that antioxidant profiles may aid in risk assessment and early detection strategies.

Non-Secreted Mature Decoy-Resistant IL-18-Armed Oncolytic Vaccinia Virus Elicits Potent Antitumor Effects in an Aggressive Murine Ovarian Cancer Model. (PubMed, Cancers (Basel))
In addition, vvDD-nsmDR-18 treatment was associated with expansion of CD39+CD103+CD8+ tumor-reactive T cells and a shift toward a lower PD-1 expression phenotype within this population. These findings demonstrate that nsmDR-18-expressing oncolytic viruses can remodel the immunosuppressive landscape of advanced ovarian cancer, suggesting this approach is a promising candidate for further clinical development.

Corneal Toxicity of Mirvetuximab Soravtansine: Multimodal Imaging Features and Implications for Ophthalmologic Management. (PubMed, Diagnostics (Basel))
MIRV-related ocular alterations are frequent but reversible and clinically manageable. Multimodal imaging combined with functional and refractive assessment provides sensitive markers of corneal epithelial toxicity and supports integrated ophthalmologic monitoring to preserve visual function and maintain oncologic treatment continuity.

Pembrolizumab plus weekly paclitaxel in platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer (ENGOT-ov65/KEYNOTE-B96): a multicentre, randomised, double-blind, phase 3 study. (PubMed, Lancet)
Pembrolizumab plus weekly paclitaxel, with or without bevacizumab, significantly improved progression-free survival and overall survival in participants with platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer who had received one to two previous systemic regimens, supporting this regimen as a new treatment option for this population.

The Metabolic Calibration of Female Immune Plasticity: From X-Linked Vulnerability to Precision Metabotyping. (PubMed, Biology (Basel))
We posit that female immune pathologies, ranging from systemic autoimmunity to gynecologic malignancies, represent a context-dependent dysregulation or co-option of this metabolic calibration. Ultimately, we discuss the clinical necessity of transitioning from generic biotic interventions toward Sexual Dimorphic Metabotyping, providing a precision framework to restore physiological tolerance and manage sex-biased immune pathologies.

Complete and durable response to trastuzumab deruxtecan in HER2-amplified invasive vulvar adenocarcinoma: A case report. (PubMed, Gynecol Oncol Rep)
With subsequent trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-Dxd) treatment, she achieved a complete and durable response and remains with no evidence of disease after one year of follow-up. This report underscores the potential utility of HER2-directed therapy in select cases of vulvar carcinoma and emphasizes the importance of molecular profiling in rare gynecologic neoplasms.

From mutation to treatment: The dual role of BRCA1 and BRCA2 in gynecological malignancy development and management a systematic review. (PubMed, Biochem Biophys Rep)
This systematic review examines the crucial role of BRCA1 and BRCA2 in DNA repair, as well as how their mutations contribute to the development of inherited gynecological malignancies, and potential treatments targeting BRCA-deficient tumors. Also discusses resistance mechanisms to PARP inhibitors, the potential for combination therapies (PARP inhibitors + immune checkpoint inhibitors), and Advances in nanotechnology-based drug delivery, dynamic biomarker development, and CRISPR-based gene repair for BRCA mutations as future challenges and direction for curable patient.
