    Abstract Liquid biopsy using circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) has emerged as a minimally invasive, timely approach to provide molecular diagnosis and monitor tumor evolution in patients with cancer. Since the molecular landscape of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) is substantially heterogeneous and dynamic over space and time, ctDNA holds significant advantages as a biomarker for this disease. Numerous studies have demonstrated that ctDNA broadly recapitulates the molecular profile of the primary tumor and metastases, and have mainly focused on the genotyping of RAS and BRAF, that is propaedeutic for anti-EGFR treatment selection. However, ctDNA soon broadened its scope towards the assessment of early tumor response, as well as the identification of drug resistance biomarkers to drive potential molecular actionability. In this review article, we provide an overview of the current state-of-the-art of this methodology and its applications, focusing on ongoing clinical trials that employ ctDNA to prospectively guide treatment in patients with mCRC.

    Abstract The tropomyosin receptor kinase (Trk) receptor family comprises 3 transmembrane proteins referred to as Trk A, B and C (TrkA, TrkB and TrkC) receptors that are encoded by the NTRK1, NTRK2 and NTRK3 genes, respectively. These receptor tyrosine kinases are expressed in human neuronal tissue and play an essential role in the physiology of development and function of the nervous system through activation by neurotrophins. Gene fusions involving NTRK genes lead to transcription of chimeric Trk proteins with constitutively activated or overexpressed kinase function conferring oncogenic potential. These genetic abnormalities have recently emerged as targets for cancer therapy, because novel compounds have been developed that are selective inhibitors of the constitutively active rearranged proteins. Developments in this field are being aided by next generation sequencing methods as tools for unbiased gene fusions discovery. In this article, we review the role of NTRK gene fusions across several tumour histologies, and the promises and challenges of targeting such genetic alterations for cancer therapy.

    Abstract Candida-related bloodstream infections (BSIs) represent a severe condition associated with health care in the critical patient, with an increasing incidence of Candida non-albicans species. These infections could lead to several and unusual complications in high-risk patients due to various factors, including a prolonged hospital stay and invasive medical interventions. Here we report a case of a Candida krusei septic thrombophlebitis in an ARDS patient admitted to the ICU, complicated by a late onset prostatic abscess. To our knowledge, our patient represents the first reported case of a prostatic abscess due to Candida krusei treated with pharmacological therapy alone.

    Abstract In the evolving molecular treatment landscape of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), the identification of druggable alterations is pivotal to achieve the best therapeutic opportunity for each patient. Because the number of actionable targets is expanding, there is the need to timely detect their presence or emergence to guide the choice of different available treatment options. Liquid biopsy, through the analysis of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), has proven safe and effective as a complementary method to address cancer evolution while overcoming the limitations of tissue biopsy. Even though data are accumulating regarding the potential for ctDNA-guided treatments applied to targeted agents, still major gaps in knowledge exist as for their application to different areas of the continuum of care. In this review, we recapitulate how ctDNA information could be exploited to drive different targeted treatment strategies in mCRC patients, by refining molecular selection before treatment by addressing tumor heterogeneity beyond tumor tissue biopsy; longitudinally monitoring early-tumor response and resistance mechanisms to targeted agents, potentially leading to tailored, molecular-driven, therapeutic options; guiding the molecular triage towards rechallenge strategies with anti-EGFR agents, suggesting the best time for retreatment; and providing opportunities for an "enhanced rechallenge" through additional treatments or combos aimed at overcoming acquired resistance. Besides, we discuss future perspectives concerning the potential role of ctDNA to fine-tune investigational strategies such as immuno-oncology.

    Abstract Background: oxaliplatin with fluoropyrimidine is a "mainstay" regarding the upfront treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). In contrast, the efficacy and safety of oxaliplatin-based regimens in late-care settings have been poorly reported.
    Methods: we identified a real-world mCRC patient cohort who were re-treated with oxaliplatin, and in which clinicopathological features were retrospectively analyzed to identify efficacy-predictive determinants (RETROX-CRC study).
    Results: of 2606 patients, 119 fulfilled the eligibility criteria. Oxaliplatin retreatment response rate (RR) and disease control rate (DCR) were 21.6% (CI 14.4-31.0%), and 57.8% (CI 47.7-67.4). A trend towards better RR and DCR was observed among patients who had first oxaliplatin in an adjuvant setting; a poorer outcome was observed if two or more intervening treatments were delivered. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 5.1 months (95%CI 4.3-6.1), reducing to 4.0 months (95%CI 3.07-5.13) if oxaliplatin was readministered beyond third-line (HR 2.02; 1.25-3.25;
    Conclusions: oxaliplatin retreatment produced further RR in around one-fifth of patients and DCR 57.8%. Efficacy decreased in more pre-treated patients and around one-third of patients discontinued treatment due to adverse events. Translational studies improving patient selection are warranted.
