Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in cancer patients worldwide. Most patients with HNSCC are diagnosed with locally advanced disease, and treated with cisplatin-based chemoradiation, but long-term disease control is still a challenge. The incorporation of epigenetic regulation into standard treatment could improve results of definit…
Thymomas are tumors of the epithelial cells of the thymus and are the most common type of tumor of the anterior mediastinum. It is a rare tumor (0.13 per 100,000 inhabitants)(10) that is frequently associated with autoimmune disorders, such as myasthenia gravis. Several classifications have been described, with different accuracy in terms of impact on clinical practice. Currently, the cla…
Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is currently the neoplasm leading in deaths worldwide and in Brazil it figures as the second most common cancer in terms of number of deaths. Patients are usually diagnosed in advanced stages and, consequently, more than 45% of all patients are diagnosed with cachexia, characterized by a severe loss of muscle mass with or without fat loss. This syndrome …
About 650,000 new cases of head and neck cancer (HNC) are diagnosed every year, making HNC the sixth most common type of cancer worldwide. HNC treatment depends on the staging of the tumor: cancers staged as I or II are treated with primary surgery or with definitive radiotherapy and the cancers staged as III or IV require a combined approach of several modalities of treatment, such as su…

Head and neck cancer (HNC) is a group of different malignant neoplasms located in oral cavity, oropharynx, larynx and hypopharynx, being squamous cell the most frequent histological type, associated with tobacco and alcohol exposure, and to papillomavirus infection. Around 75-80% of all HNC patients present with locally advanced disease, stage…

Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common type of lung cancer and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Patients are frequently diagnosed in advanced stages and about half of all NSCLC patients present cancer cachexia, a syndrome characterized by skeletal muscle wasting, lower response to anticancer treatments and poor prognosis. Preliminary Data: We set to det…
