Reccomendations for using of molecular assays on liquid biopsy: The first document provided by intersociety Group AIOM, SIF, SIAPEC-IAP, SIBioC

2019

Liquid biopsy in cancer patients is mainly based on the analysis of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) enriched from biological fluids. This approach has more recently been proposed for the detection of oncogenic alterations in blood, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), or urine through the use of sensitive technologies, mainly digital PCR (ddPCR) and massive parallel sequencing (MPS). Liquid biopsies have the advantage of overcoming some of the drawbacks associated with tumor biopsies, being blood samples easy to obtain from patients. Plasma ctDNA may better represent the total landscape of oncogenic alterations found across all tumor sites. Several commercially available liquid biopsy platforms based o…

Clinical spectrum time course in anti jo-1 positive antisynthetase syndrome: Results from an international retrospective multicenter study

2015

Anti Jo-1 antibodies are the main markers of the antisynthetase syndrome (ASSD), an autoimmune disease clinically characterized by the occurrence of arthritis, myositis, and interstitial lung disease (ILD). These manifestations usually co-occur (for practical purpose complete forms) in the same patient, but cases with only 1 or 2 of these findings (for practical purpose incomplete forms) have been described. In incomplete forms, the ex novo occurrence of further manifestations is possible, although with frequencies and timing not still defined. The aim of this international, multicenter, retrospective study was to characterize the clinical time course of anti Jo-1 positive ASSD in a large c…

Otosclerosis associated with type B-1 inner ear malformation

2010

Malformations of bony inner ear are rare anomalies occurring in approximately 20% of patients with congenital sensorineural hearing loss. Conductive hearing loss is usually associated with abnormalities of the external and middle ear. Recent reports of patients with lateral semicircular canal malformations indicate inner ear malformations to be associated with sensorineural or conductive hearing loss. Differential diagnosis of conductive hearing loss should include otosclerosis, isolated ossicular deformities, inner ear anomalies or a combination of these. In this report, a case is described with right vestibule-lateral semicircular canal dysplasia presenting at our centre with bilateral ot…

Flow cytometric DNA analysis and lysosomal cathepsins B and L in locally advanced laryngeal cancer. Relationship with clinicopathologic parameters an…

1995

Background. The traditional factors of locally advanced laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) have limited predictive value for the identification of high risk patients. Therefore, it is extremely important to define prognostic factors that identify the more aggressive types. Reliable and reproducible prognostic indicators are being investigated to help clinicians identify high risk groups and address more rational treatment. Methods. Flow cytometric DNA ploidy and S‐phase fraction (SPF) measurements were performed on frozen tumor tissues from a consecutive series of 71 patients with Stage III and IV LSCC. Lysosomal cathepsin B and L activity levels were determined biochemically in match…

BRCA1/2 variants of unknown significance in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) syndrome: Looking for the hidden meaning

2021

Hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome is caused by germline mutations in BRCA1/2 genes. These genes are very large and their mutations are heterogeneous and scattered throughout the coding sequence. In addition to the above-mentioned mutations, variants of uncertain/unknown significance (VUSs) have been identified in BRCA genes, which make more difficult the clinical management of the patient and risk assessment. In the last decades, several laboratories have developed different databases that contain more than 2000 variants for the two genes and integrated strategies which include multifactorial prediction models based on direct and indirect genetic evidence, to classify the VUSs a…
