Primary Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase-Positive Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumor of the Small Bowel Detected by Capsule Endoscopy: A Case Report. (PubMed, DEN Open)
This case indicates that CE can provide clinically useful information for the evaluation of small bowel submucosal lesions beyond the reach of conventional endoscopy. IMT should be considered in the differential diagnosis of erythematous small bowel tumors in young patients.

Ileocecal CD5-Positive Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma Presenting with Acute Obstructive Symptoms: A Case Report. (PubMed, Surg Case Rep)
Malignant lymphoma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of acute obstructive symptoms, even when imaging findings suggest carcinoma. Prompt surgical intervention can facilitate definitive diagnosis and timely referral for systemic therapy in selected cases.

Extrapolation of Time-to-Event Survival Outcomes of Histology-Independent Therapies Using a Bayesian Hierarchical Model. (PubMed, Med Decis Making)
In this study, we extend previous work on binary outcomes to the application of Bayesian hierarchical models (BHMs) for extrapolation of overall survival from pembrolizumab-treated patients with microsatellite instability-high/deficient mismatch repair solid tumors.MethodsWe considered BHMs based on 1- or 2-parameter distributions for extrapolation of survival outcomes...The results provide extrapolated curves for OS that vary by tumor site, thus capturing and quantifying the inherent heterogeneity within the patient population. BHMs offer advantages in terms of reduced uncertainty around parameters that are often key drivers in cost-effectiveness analyses, such as estimated OS, through the borrowing of information between tumor sites.HighlightsBayesian hierarchical models (BHMs) reduced uncertainty in extrapolation of time-to-event outcomes for histology-independent treatments compared with nonhierarchical models fit to each tumor site.Reduced uncertainty around the mean survival time is a key factor of cost-effectiveness analyses of histology-independent treatments.BHMs provide a suitable framework for extrapolating histology-independent survival outcomes, effectively integrating prior knowledge and explicitly capturing heterogeneity between different tumor sites.

Interlesional Genomic Heterogeneity in Small Bowel Adenocarcinoma: Evidence from Matched Primary and Peritoneal Metastatic Lesions. (PubMed, Clin Res Hepatol Gastroenterol)
In contrast, one of the two cases with metachronous peritoneal metastases developed an additional KRAS mutation compared to the paired primary, shifted from moderately to poorly differentiated morphology, and exhibited mismatch-repair deficiency by immunohistochemistry, while remaining microsatellite stable by NGS. These findings suggest interlesional molecular heterogeneity in SBA and emphasize the need for re-biopsies in precision oncology for metachronous metastases.

Clinico-pathological diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for duodenal adenocarcinoma from a UK retrospective Cohort study. (PubMed, Hum Pathol)
Our work presents the largest UK cohort of DA with long-term follow-up making it an excellent resource for future biomarker studies. Validation studies in prospective clinical studies are required for clinical application.

A retrospective analysis of taxane-based chemotherapy in small bowel adenocarcinoma. (PubMed, Oncologist)
Taxane-based therapy demonstrated activity in metastatic SBA, with 24% response and 3.1-month mTTP. TP53 mutation may be a negative predictive marker for taxane efficacy. These findings support prospective investigation in metastatic SBA.

Gastric-Type Adenomas of the Nonampullary Duodenum: Reappraisal of Clinicopathological and Molecular Features and a Proposal for Novel Classification. (PubMed, Am J Surg Pathol)
These findings suggest that nonampullary duodenal neoplasms of gastric phenotype can be reclassified as "gastric-type adenomas" based on excellent prognosis and common genetic alterations, albeit a wide spectrum of morphology and gastric phenotypic expression. MDM2 amplification may contribute to histologic progression.
