Diagnostic and management of high-risk acute myeloblastic leukemia in adult patients

Roberto M. Lemoli, Adriano Venditti

editore: Minerva Medica

pagine: 216

High-risk acute myeloblastic leukemia (HR AML) is charac­terized by unfavorable biologic and clinical features impairing the efficacy of conventional treatments resulting in less than 40% short-term complete remission (CR) rate and poor median overall survival (OS). In addition, high-risk disease occurs, often, in elderly patients with high comorbidity burden and these findings induce poor tolerability to chemotherapy and reduced eligibility to allogeneic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), the only curative therapeutic option in this setting. Here, leading experts in the field cover all the novel aspects concerning the updated definition, the diagnosis, the management and future perspectives tor HR AML patients. Over the last decade the great progress in molecular and cell biology, medicinal chemistry far drug design and immunology have resulted in the development and approval of a large number of novel therapeutics for patients with AML. Although the definition of HR AML is evolving, the better understanding of the genetic and biological characteristics of leukemic cells and their microenviroment will significantly contribute towards novel therapeutic approaches.

The treatment of melanoma

Paolo Antonio Ascierto

editore: Minerva Medica

pagine: 272

This book provides an overview of melanoma skin cancer and illustrates the most recent advances in the field of its clinical management. Today, thanks to new treatments like targeted therapies and immunotherapies, about 50% of metastatic patients can be cured and healed. Moreover, recently, such treatments have proven effective in the adjuvant setting by reducing the risk of disease progression and the mortality rate by 30-40%. Melanoma management represents a model for immuno-oncology, and starting from the experiences made in this field, today immune checkpoint inhibitors can also be successfully used to treat other neoplasms. However, in spite of the good results achieved, mortality rates are still high. For this reason, we still need to gain a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying primary and acquired resistance, and to find ways to extend the long-term benefits that have been recently achieved in resistant patients.

Manuale di oncologia medica

COMU. Collegio degli Oncologi Medici Italiani

editore: Minerva Medica

pagine: 432

Il rapido progresso delle conoscenze sia in campo diagnostico che terapeutico ha reso opportuna una nuova edizione del manuale. Gli Autori lo hanno preparato con piacere constatando la favorevole accoglienza riservata alla I edizione. In questo manuale lo studente troverà principi generali di storia naturale, diagnosi e terapia delle principali neoplasie. L’oncologia è sicuramente la branca della medicina che maggiormente si giova di un approccio multidisciplinare. La complessità dei processi diagnostici, la difficoltà della scelta della terapia più appropriata e, non ultimo, la gestione della tossicità obbligano l’oncologo medico (e qualunque specialista che si trovi di fronte un paziente neoplastico) ad un confronto con i colleghi di altre specialità. Gli Autori sperano con questo manuale di trasmettere agli studenti in Medicina quelle informazioni che consentiranno loro, qualunque sia la branca specialistica in cui saranno impegnati, di poter colloquiare con gli altri specialisti per garantire un corretto percorso diagnostico terapeutico al paziente oncologico.
