Mashup Score: 1Impact of COVID-19 on Management and Outcomes of Oncology Patients: Results of MENA COVID-19 and Cancer Registry (MCCR) - 1 year(s) ago
ABSTRACTIntroduction. Despite extensive studies of the impact of COVID-19 on patients with cancer, there is a dearth of information from the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. Our study aimed to report pertinent MENA COVID-19 and Cancer Registry (MCCR) findings on patient management and outcomes.Methods. MCCR was adapted from the American Society of Clinical Oncology COVID-19 Registry to collect data specifically from patients with cancer and SARS-CoV-2 infection from 12 centers in eight countries including Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey, Egypt, Algeria, United Arab Emirates, and Morocco. The Registry included data on patients and disease characteristics, treatment, and patient outcomes. Logistic regression was used to assess associations with mortality.Results. Between November 29, 2020, and June 8, 2021, data were captured on 2008 patients diagnosed with COVID-19 from the beginning of the pandemic. Median age was 56 years (16–98), 56.4% were females, and 26% were curr

Mashup Score: 11Quality Measures for Multidisciplinary Tumor Boards and Their Role in Improving Cancer Care - 1 year(s) ago
ABSTRACTIntroduction. While multidisciplinary tumor boards (MTBs) are widely used in managing patients with cancer, their impact on patient care and outcome is not routinely measured in different settings.Methods. The authors conducted a literature review in Medline, Google Scholar, Embase, and Web of Science using the following keywords: cancer, multidisciplinary, tumor board, quality performance indicator, lung cancer, and lymphoma. Standards from various accreditation and professional organizations were reviewed to compile relevant standards for MTB.Results. A list of quality performance indicators that can be used to improve MTBs’ performance and impact was compiled. Specific examples for non-Hodgkin lymphoma and lung cancer MTBs were presented. Guidance was provided to help MTB team members select implement the appropriate quality measures.Conclusion. The functions and impact of MTBs should be monitored and evaluated by a set of measures that help guide MTBs to improve their perfo

If we believe that dietary supplements are active compounds—and many are—then we should deal with them as medications and advise our patients accordingly.

The use of dietary supplements is very common among #patients with #cancer, yet it is not fully addressed by #oncologists. We need a fresh serious look at this matter! @ASCO @ASCOPost @OncoAlert @OncLive @OncologyNetwork @CancerAdvisors https://t.co/2cvcgxIn15

Mashup Score: 0Precision medicine in the era of multi-omics: can the data tsunami guide rational treatment decision? - 2 year(s) ago
Precision medicine for cancer is rapidly moving to an approach that integrates multiple dimensions of the biology in order to model mechanisms of cancer progression in each patient. The discovery of multiple drivers per tumor challenges medical decision that faces several treatment options. Drug sensitivity depends on the actionability of the target, its clonal or subclonal origin and coexisting genomic alterations. Sequencing has revealed a large diversity of drivers emerging at treatment failure, which are potential targets for clinical trials or drug repurposing.
