Amplification of Higher-Order Salivary Gland Volume Effects from External Beam Radiotherapy in Normal Tissue Complication Probability Modeling of Radiopharmaceutical Therapy by Chunming Gu, Robert F. Hobbs, Ana P. Kiess, Junghoon Lee, Todd McNutt, Harry Quon, Zhuoyao Xin, Tahir I. Yusufaly

“…In EBRT, salivary glands are usually assumed to be parallel organs, with QUANTEC guidelines based on <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><msub><mi>D</mi><mrow><mi>m</mi><mi>e</mi><mi>a</mi><mi>n</mi></mrow></msub></semantics></math></inline-formula>, but this is known to be a gross over-simplification of the full complexity of the underlying functional organization. The goal of this work is to combine machine learning of EBRT dose–outcome data with stylized small-scale RPT dosimetry to discover more reliable normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) models of xerostomia across both modalities. …”

Methylation and gene expression patterns in adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma highlight a panel of genes associated with disease progression-free survival by Junier Marrero-Gutiérrez, Ana Carolina Bueno, Ana Carolina Bueno, Clarissa Silva Martins, Rui Milton Patrício Silva-Júnior, Antônio Carlos dos Santos, Marcelo Volpon Santos, Luiz Eduardo Wildemberg, Ximene Lima da Silva Antunes, Monica R. Gadelha, Ayrton Custodio Moreira, Ricardo Zorzetto Nicoliello Vêncio, Sonir Roberto R. Antonini, Margaret de Castro

“…Clustering analyses based on the methylation levels of probes and expression levels of the stringently filtered 212- and 37-gene sets further confirmed these two distinct ACP subgroups. Functional enrichment analysis highlighted key roles in synaptic modulation, nervous system development, cell adhesion, as well as pathways linked to RAS signaling, GTPase activity, and membrane potential regulation.ConclusionAlthough clinical characteristics were largely comparable between the clusters, ACP-B patients exhibited shorter median progression-free survival, suggesting a more aggressive phenotype. …”
