Higher risk of death among MEN1 patients with mutations in the JunD interacting domain: a Groupe d'etude des Tumeurs Endocrines (GTE) cohort study.
2013
International audience; Multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 1 (MEN1), which is secondary to mutation of the MEN1 gene, is a rare autosomal-dominant disease that predisposes mutation carriers to endocrine tumors. Although genotype-phenotype studies have so far failed to identify any statistical correlations, some families harbor recurrent tumor patterns. The function of MENIN is unclear, but has been described through the discovery of its interacting partners. Mutations in the interacting domains of MENIN functional partners have been shown to directly alter its regulation abilities. We report on a cohort of MEN1 patients from the Groupe d'étude des Tumeurs Endocrines. Patients with a…
Ensuring Effective Prevention of Iodine Deficiency Disorders
2016
To access publisher's full text version of this article click on the hyperlink at the bottom of the page Programs initiated to prevent iodine deficiency disorders (IDD) may not remain effective due to changes in government policies, commercial factors, and human behavior that may affect the efficacy of IDD prevention programs in unpredictable directions. Monitoring and outcome studies are needed to optimize the effectiveness of IDD prevention. Although the need for monitoring is compelling, the current reality in Europe is less than optimal. Regular and systematic monitoring surveys have only been established in a few countries, and comparability across the studies is hampered by the lack o…
Endocrine side-effects of new anticancer therapies: Overall monitoring and conclusions
2018
IF 0.795 (2017); International audience; The present final consensus statement of the French Society of Endocrinology lays out the assessments that are to be systematically performed before and during anticancer treatment by immunotherapy, tyrosine kinase inhibitors or mTOR inhibitors, even without onset of any endocrinopathy. It also discusses the CTCAE adverse event grading system in oncology and the difficulty of implementing it for endocrine side-effects of these anticancer treatments. Notably, this is why certain treatment steps applied in other side-effects (e.g., high-dose corticosteroids, contraindications to immunotherapy, etc.) need to be discussed before implementation for endocr…
2018 Consensus of the French Society of Endocrinology: endocrine toxicities of cancer immunotherapies
2019
Immunotherapy induced side effects: Are frequent, usually well-tolerated, and can lead to thyroid, pituitary, and less frequently adrenals and pancreas (fulminant diabetes) disease,. Do not contra-indicate immunotherapy, and rarely require high dose glucocorticoids; Need to be screened for, as there are acute manifestations, and replacement treatments can be given lifelong; Require a pre-immunotherapy evaluation; Require a careful follow-up at least during the first 6 months of immunotherapy.
