BRCA1 Promoter Methylation Leading to “BRCAness” and Response to Olaparib in BRCA1/2 Mutation-Negative High-Grade Serous Ovarian Carcinoma: A Case Report

Amit Bhargava*; Shruti Kulkarni; Mohit Kapoor

    BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations are strongly associated with homologous recombination deficiency in ovarian cancer and predict response to poly (ADP-ribose) Polymerase (PARP) inhibitors [1,2]. However, tumors lacking detectable BRCA mutations may still demonstrate a “BRCAness” phenotype through alternative molecular mechanisms such as BRCA1 promoter methylation [3,4].

Soham Gangopadhyay; Suranjan Maitra*; Sharad Sah; Priyanka L Mudunuri; Keya Basu

    Basal Cell Carcinoma, primarily occurring due to sunlight exposure, radiation, arsenic, immunosuppression or inherited conditions like Xeroderma pigmentosum, mostly present in sun-exposed areas of the head and neck but can also present elsewhere.


Use of Targeted Osmotic Lysis for the Treatment of Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Dennis Paul, PhD*; Leonard Gately, MD; Abigail Sims, MS; Harry J Gould, III, MD, PhD

    Targeted Osmotic Lysis (TOL) has been recently proposed as a novel, safe, and effective method for treating advanced carcinomas. The technique takes advantage of the finding that carcinomas greatly over-express Voltage-Gated Sodium Channels (VGSCs)


Use of Targeted Osmotic Lysis for the Treatment of Malignant Melanoma: Case Report

Harry J Gould, III, MD, PhD*; Rajiv S Dahiya, MD; Abigail Sims, BS, MS; Dennis Paul, PhD

    Malignant melanomas are often misdiagnosed or discounted when the disease is present in early, more treatable stages. When present during later stages of disease treatment options tend to be more limited, less effective, and prone to association with significant adverse effects.


Blood and Cancer

Siniša Franjić*

    Blood is a red, dark and thick fluid, with a salty taste and particular scent, that streams through the blood vessels and the heart. It passes through all parts of the body, supplies it with supplements and oxygen, and carries destructive substances to the organs that discharge or neutralize them.
