Oncology beyond the hospital: 7 years taking care of cancer patients from the very begining until the last consequences.
75 Background: Comprehensive and continuous care is esential for the correct management of cancer patients. To achieve this, specific programs for early diagnosis and long survivor care are needed. Since 2007, within the project “Oncology beyond the Hospital: Oncologic assistance at the Universitary General Hospital of Valencia”, the Oncologist Liaison was created. Methods: Two tracks were designed: High-resolution track for patients with suspicion of non-diagnosed cáncer; and Oncologist Liaison track, to organize the follow-up of cáncer long survivors. We present a descriptive and retrospective study by reviewing medical records of patients referred to the high-resolution diagnostic consu…
Soluble biomarker signature to predict outcome of patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with anti-PD1/PDL1 monoclonal antibodies.
e20685 Background: Immunotherapy with anti-PD1/PDL1 monoclonal antibodies has become the second line standard treatment for most patients diagnosed of advanced Non-Small-Cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The aim of this study is to assess the utility of circulating biomarkers such as sPDL1, sPDL2, sCD137, sIDO, sTIM3, sCD28, sCD27, sCTLA4, sHVEM, sLAG3, sCD80 and sGITR for predicting efficacy of immunotherapy with anti-PD1/PDL1 therapies. Methods: Blood samples were collected before treatment from 50 NSCLC patients who received anti PD1/PDL1 therapies (second line). Plasma biomarkers´ levels were measured by Multiplex bead-based assays. Continuous variables were categorized using the median as a c…
