    Abstract Fertility-sparing treatment (FST) for endometrial carcinoma (EC) is an option for a subgroup of young women with low-risk disease. The low-risk group comprises patients with endometrioid EC stage IA, grade 1, with or without focal lymphovascular invasion. In the era of molecular subtyping, treatment de-escalation for some EC subtypes is recommended. Recommendations for fertility-preserving treatments were developed regardless of the molecular classification of EC. However, few studies have focused on this topic. In this review, we summarize the actual data available in the literature and discuss the impact of some molecular subtypes of FST.

    Abstract Introduction: This study aims to determine predictive factors for cervical cancer patients who would benefit more from high-dose-rate (HDR) or pulsed-dose-rate (PDR) brachytherapy.
    Methods: The sample included 50 patients treated with brachytherapy following external radiochemotherapy. PDR plans were compared to HDR preplans, with a focus on patients who may benefit from PDR using preplan metrics and clinical variables. The expected clinical effect was quantified using a tumor control probability model.
    Results: Results showed PDR plans with 60 pulses to be optimal for achieving target clinical goals for D90CTVHR. A CTVHR volume of >67.5cc and/or D90CTVHR dose on the HDR preplan of <31.1 Gy was the strongest indicator for patient selection who would gain >3% increase in TCP with PDR. The process showed 96% accuracy, 88% sensitivity, and 98% specificity. Only 16% of patients showed a relevant benefit from PDR over HDR, with a mean D90CTVHR of 7 Gy higher and a mean TCP at 3 years of 4.8% higher for PDR. The benefit of PDR is highly influenced by the choice of alpha/beta ratio and repair halftime.
    Conclusion: A small subset of cervical cancer patients may gain from PDR over HDR. CTVHR volume and preplan D90CTVHR doses may be useful in selecting patients for PDR brachytherapy.

    Abstract Adoptive T cell therapy (ACT) is a fast developing, niche area of immunotherapy (IO), which is revolutionising the therapeutic landscape of solid tumour oncology, especially metastatic melanoma (MM). Identifying tumour antigens (TAs) as potential targets, the ACT response is mediated by either Tumour Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TILs) or genetically modified T cells with specific receptors - T cell receptors (TCRs) or chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) or more prospectively, natural killer (NK) cells. Clinical trials involving ACT in MM from 2006 to present have shown promising results. Yet it is not without its drawbacks which include significant auto-immune toxicity and need for pre-conditioning lymphodepletion. Although immune-modulation is underway using various combination therapies in the hope of enhancing efficacy and reducing toxicity. Our review article explores the role of ACT in MM, including the various modalities - their safety, efficacy, risks and their development in the trial and the real world setting.

    Abstract Purpose: Treatment of vulvar carcinoma (VC) is challenging. The objectives of this review were to describe for clinicians the epidemiologic and clinical aspects of VC, the standard of care in terms of primary local treatment and systemic therapies, and the recent innovations and perspectives emerging from translational research in immuno-oncology.
    Design: We conducted a comprehensive review outlying the clinical aspects and biologic background of vulvar cancer, highlighting modern treatment strategies on the basis of a personalized approach.
    Results: Epidemiologic data showed a recent rise in incidence of VC, attributed to human papillomavirus. Surgery is the mainstay of primary treatment, but multimodal approaches are frequently required in the presence of adverse prognosis histopathologic factors. Chemoradiation is indicated when organ-sparing surgery is not feasible. However, inability to achieve high locoregional control rates in advanced cases and the morbidity associated with local treatments are still key issues. Recent clinical data showed the benefit of individualized strategies combining organ-sparing surgical strategies, less invasive lymph node staging procedures, and refinement in radiotherapy modalities. Among the most important research area, there is a sound rationale for testing modern systemic approaches such as immune checkpoint inhibitors in selected patients with recurrent and/or metastatic tumors. Although no specific data exist for VC, the role of supportive care and post-treatment rehabilitation strategies is also crucial.
    Conclusion: There are still insufficient studies dedicated to patients with VC. Public health programs for prevention, screening, and early diagnosis are required, and clinical research should be strengthened to provide high-quality clinical evidence and improve patients' oncologic and functional outcomes.

    Abstract Although radiation therapy plays a crucial role in cancer treatment, and techniques have improved continuously, irradiation induces side effects in healthy tissue. Radiation cystitis is a potential complication following the therapeutic irradiation of pelvic cancers and negatively impacts patients' quality of life (QoL). To date, no effective treatment is available, and this toxicity remains a therapeutic challenge. In recent times, stem cell-based therapy, particularly the use of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC), has gained attention in tissue repair and regeneration due to their easy accessibility and their ability to differentiate into several tissue types, modulate the immune system and secrete substances that help nearby cells grow and heal. In this review, we will summarize the pathophysiological mechanisms of radiation-induced injury to normal tissues, including radiation cystitis (RC). We will then discuss the therapeutic potential and limitations of MSCs and their derivatives, including packaged conditioned media and extracellular vesicles, in the management of radiotoxicity and RC.

    Abstract Purpose: Treatment options for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with inferior vena cava tumor thrombus (IVC-TT) are limited and carry substantial risks. Currently, there are no standard treatment options in the setting of recurrent or unresectable RCC with IVC-TT.
    Methods: We report our experience of treating an IVC-TT RCC patient with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT).
    Results: This 62-year-old gentleman presented renal cell carcinoma with IVC-TT and liver metastases. Initial treatment consisted of radical nephrectomy and thrombectomy followed by continuous sunitinib. At 3 months, he developed an unresectable IVC-TT recurrence. A fiducial marker was implanted into the IVC-TT by catheterization. New biopsies were performed at the same time, demonstrating a recurrence of the RCC. SBRT consisted of 5 fractions of 7 Gy to the IVC-TT with excellent initial tolerance. He subsequently received anti-PD1 therapy (nivolumab). At 4 years follow-up, he is doing well with no IVC-TT recurrence and no late toxicity.
    Conclusion: SBRT appears to be a feasible and safe treatment for IVC-TT secondary to RCC in patients who are not candidates for surgery.
