Evaluating the effectiveness and safety of the Pfizer/BioNTech BNT162b2 COVID-19 vaccine in patients with breast and gynecological cancer.

This study evaluated the effectiveness and safety of the Pfizer/BioNTech BNT162b2 COVID-19 vaccine in patients with breast and gynecological cancer. The data showed that most patients with breast and gynecological cancer developed antibodies after the second dose of the vaccine. However, the authors suggested that for non-responders or weak responders, additional immunization booster seems to be required, along with proactive planning in the vaccination schedule, with vaccine administration spaced out over time with respect to chemotherapy.

Evaluating the effectiveness of three exercise programs and intensive follow-up in improving quality of life, pain, and lymphedema among breast cancer survivors

The study evaluated the effectiveness of three exercise programs in improving quality of life (QOL), pain, and lymphedema among breast cancer (BC) survivors. The study found that joint mobility exercise (JME) combined with progressive resistance exercise (PRE) showed promising results in improving QOL and lymphedema after BC surgery.

Evaluating the benefits of radiotherapy dose escalation and the addition of short-term or long-term androgen deprivation therapy in men with localized prostate cancer.

This study evaluated the benefits of radiation therapy (RT) dose escalation and the addition of short-term (ST) or long-term (LT) androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) to RT in men with localized prostate cancer (PCa). The data showed that the addition of ST or LT-ADT to RT improved survival without metastasis in these patients, regardless of the RT dose.

Evaluating the impact of immunetherapy on COVID-19 outcomes in patients with cancer.

This study evaluated the impact of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) on COVID-19 outcomes in patients with cancer. The data showed that the use of ICI treatment before COVID-19 infection does not affect the disease severity or survival outcomes. This study supports the continued use of ICIs in cancer patients during the pandemic.

Evaluating the effectiveness of antiresorptive drugs on bone mineral density in postmenopausal women with early-stage breast cancer receiving treatment with aromatase inhibitors.

This study evaluated the effectiveness of antiresorptive drugs on bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal women with early-stage breast cancer (BC) receiving treatment with aromatase inhibitors (AIs). The data showed that denosumab (Prolia) and zoledronic acid (Aclasta) were the most effective antiresorptive treatment options to improve BMD in these patients.
