Early Metastatic Relapse in Resected Stage IB KRAS G12D Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma: Limitations of Anatomical Staging. (PubMed, Cureus)
Despite apparently favorable pathological staging and adjuvant FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy, the patient developed early biochemical progression with rapidly rising carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9) levels, followed by widespread metastatic dissemination involving the liver, lung, spine, skeletal muscle, and multiple visceral sites...This case highlights the limitations of anatomical staging in PDAC and emphasizes the prognostic importance of tumor biology, including KRAS mutation status, lymphovascular invasion, and perineural invasion. It also demonstrates the potential limitations of CA 19-9 as a solitary marker of treatment response in biologically aggressive disease.

High therapeutic efficacy of triplet therapy in unresectable or metastatic colorectal cancer and its optimal application strategies. (PubMed, Int J Clin Oncol)
Triplet chemotherapy based on FOLFOXIRI (5-fluorouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan) has achieved high response rates and deep tumor shrinkage. In combination with molecularly targeted agents, triplet therapy plus bevacizumab, an anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) antibody, has demonstrated superior efficacy compared with doublet chemotherapy plus bevacizumab. In patients with RAS/BRAF wild-type tumors, combination therapy with anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) monoclonal antibodies such as cetuximab and panitumumab has also shown improved survival outcomes, although toxicity remains a major concern...This review outlines the historical development of triplet therapy in mCRC, summarizes the major clinical trials investigating triplet chemotherapy combined with molecularly targeted agents, and discusses direct comparisons between anti-VEGF- and anti-EGFR-based strategies. Particular emphasis is placed on practical considerations for clinical implementation, including toxicity management, dose optimization, and multidisciplinary supportive care.

Analysis of adjuvant chemotherapy efficacy based on GLUT1 expression levels after radical resection of pancreatic cancer (PubMed, Zhonghua Wai Ke Za Zhi)
Subgroup analysis demonstrated that among patients receiving mFOLFIRINOX or gemcitabine-based combination regimens as adjuvant chemotherapy, both DFS and OS were significantly better in the low GLUT1 expression group compared with the high expression group (all P<0.05). GLUT1 expression level affects adjuvant chemotherapy efficacy after radical resection of pancreatic cancer, and its high expression is an independent adverse prognostic factor.
