Although asymptomatic screening has changed the way in which a few cancers are diagnosed, most patients diagnosed with cancer still present with symptoms. https://lnkd.in/eVUmeGTi

Pancreatic Cancer Surge May Be Less Worrisome Than It Seemed A rise in the disease in younger people was not followed by an increase in deaths, a study found, and might be a sign of overdiagnosis. https://lnkd.in/enj-ivd5

Limited treatment options available for metastasised osteosarcoma contribute to the poor clinical prognosis of patients with this condition. https://lnkd.in/esxv-jXG
Enhanced immune responses are accompanied by increased MAGEA expression in osteosarcoma metastases

Osteosarcoma is the most common primary bone sarcoma. About 50% of patients develop metastatic disease and their 5-year survival lingers at around 20%–30%. T cell checkpoint blockade immunotherapies have revolutionised cancer treatment in the last decade, but their impact remains limited in osteosarcoma. This study showed increased hallmarks of cytotoxic T cell-driven anti-cancer immunity and elevated expression of cancer testis antigens of the melanoma antigen family A (MAGEA) family in osteosarcoma metastases as compared with the primary tumours. Furthermore, presentation of MAGE-derived peptides was demonstrated on osteosarcoma cell lines. Read more in BMJ Oncology now: https://lnkd.in/esxv-jXG

In 2022, the updated European Council recommendation on cancer screening was adopted.1 The recommendation includes prostate cancer as a suitable target disease for organised cancer screening in European countries. While overdiagnosis and overtreatment are known issues in prostate cancer screening, the use of an upper age limit, risk stratification after baseline Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) testing and high-quality prostatic MRI scanning should significantly reduce overdiagnosis and improve the harm-to-benefit ratio. 🔗 Read the full editorial in BMJ Oncology now: https://lnkd.in/ezAKEsXE
