Schwartz, Richard S. Finn, Swan Thung, Augusto Villanueva, Daniela Sia, Josep M. Llovet

Summary: This study analyzed tumor samples from patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (aHCC) treated with anti-PD1 and identified interferon signaling and major histocompatibility complex-related genes as key molecular features of HCCs responding to anti-PD1. The researchers developed an 11-gene signature that can predict treatment response and survival in frontline aHCC patients.

18F-AlF-NOTA-Octreotide Outperforms 68Ga-DOTATATE/ NOC PET in Neuroendocrine Tumor Patients: Results from a Prospective, Multicenter Study

Clement, Karen Geboes, Eric Van Cutsem, Sigrid Stroobants, Chris Verslype, Guy Bormans, Christophe M. Deroose

Summary: A recent multicenter trial demonstrated that 18F-AlF-OC, as a radiotracer, is noninferior to 68Ga-DOTA-SSA in somatostatin receptor imaging for neuroendocrine tumor patients. This study provides scientific evidence for the clinical application of 18F-AlF-OC.

Closing spontaneous portosystemic shunts in cirrhosis: Does it make sense? Does it work? What does it take?

Wim Laleman, Michael Praktiknjo, Mette Munk Lauridsen, Lawrence Bonne, Emma Vanderschueren, Chris Verslype, Aleksander Krag, Jonel Trebicka, Geert Maleux

Summary: Spontaneous portosystemic shunts are often overlooked as a cause of hepatic encephalopathy associated with cirrhosis. They are considered as radiological biomarkers of clinically significant portal hypertension and have a clinical impact on complications related to portal hypertension. Interventional radiology embolization is a direct method to target these shunts.

Unraveling the Synergy between Atezolizumab and Bevacizumab for the Treatment of Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Cedric Brackenier, Lisa Kinget, Sarah Cappuyns, Chris Verslype, Benoit Beuselinck, Jeroen Dekervel

Summary: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a prevalent cancer with a high mortality rate. The combination of an antiangiogenic drug and an immune checkpoint inhibitor has become the new standard of care for advanced HCC. This review discusses the mode of action, clinical efficacy, and biomarker research for both drug classes and the combination therapy. It also highlights the synergy between the two drugs and provides insights into the underlying immunoreactive tumor microenvironment.

Sorafenib increases cytochrome P450 lipid metabolites in patient with hepatocellular carcinoma

Summary: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a leading cause of cancer death, and the medical treatment options are limited. The multikinase inhibitor sorafenib has been widely used for systemic therapy in advanced HCC. This study shows that sorafenib affects the levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA)-derived epoxygenated metabolites, indicating that specific supplementation with DHA could increase levels of the epoxy compound 19,20-EDP with potential anti-tumor activity in HCC patients receiving sorafenib therapy.

The effect of hypoxia on Daphnia magna performance and its associated microbial and bacterioplankton community: A scope for phenotypic plasticity and microbiome community interactions upon environmental stress?

Summary: The depletion of oxygen due to increased stratification and decreased solubility is a significant chemical change in aquatic ecosystems under global environmental change, leading to increased exposure of aquatic organisms to hypoxic conditions. Understanding the effects of hypoxia on key ecological species and their microbial communities is crucial for predicting the response of aquatic communities to this environmental disturbance. In this study, the (sub-)lethal effects of hypoxia on Daphnia, a keystone species in freshwater ecosystems, were examined, along with the potential role of the microbial community in the phenotypic switch and tolerance to hypoxia. The results showed phenotypic plasticity in Daphnia performance traits, as well as changes in species richness and community composition of the microbial community, suggesting the importance of the microbiome in phenotypic plasticity and hypoxia tolerance in Daphnia.

A randomized controlled trial of hand/foot-cooling by hilotherapy to prevent oxaliplatin-related peripheral neuropathy in patients with malignancies of the digestive system

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of hand/foot-cooling on oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy (OIPN). The results showed that the use of cooling devices significantly reduced the incidence of OIPN and improved acute OIPN symptoms. Patients generally felt comfortable with the intervention.

Summary: This study aimed to assess the impact of body composition on survival in patients with HCC treated with sorafenib or SIRT and sorafenib, and the results showed that body composition parameters were not associated with overall survival in advanced HCC patients.

Rituximab and improved nodular regenerative hyperplasia-associated non-cirrhotic liver disease in common variable immunodeficiency: a case report and literature study

Summary: Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) associated liver disease is an underrecognized and poorly studied non-infectious complication that lacks an established treatment. However, our case and literature review suggest a potential beneficial effect of rituximab for treating liver complications, which warrants further research.

Transition from laparoscopic to robotic liver surgery: clinical outcomes, learning curve effect, and cost-effectiveness

M. D'Hondt, A. Devooght, E. Willems, D. Wicherts, C. De Meyere, I Parmentier, A. Provoost, H. Pottel, C. Verslype

Summary: This study evaluates the short-term outcomes and cost differences of robotic liver surgery (RLS) compared to laparoscopic liver surgery (LLS). The findings indicate that RLS has comparable short-term outcomes to LLS but with shorter operative time, lower intraoperative blood loss, and shorter hospital stay. The cost analysis also shows that RLS is more cost-effective compared to LLS.
