The efficacy of iodine-125 permanent brachytherapy versus intensity-modulated radiation for inoperable salivary gland malignancies: Study protocol of a randomised controlled trial

Radiation therapy is the method of choice for subjects with inoperable salivary gland malignancies. I125 brachytherapy, delivering a high radiation dose to a tumor but sparing surrounding normal tissues, is supposed to be ideal modality for the treatment of salivary gland malignancies.

Mutational status of synchronous and metachronous tumor samples in patients with metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer

Despite reported discordance between the mutational status of primary lung cancers and their metastases, metastatic sites are rarely biopsied and targeted therapy is guided by genetic biomarkers detected in the primary tumor. This situation is mostly explained by the apparent stability of EGFR-activ[r]
