It is important to distinguish thymoma and other tumor histotypes amenable to surgery from lymphoma. Furthermore, in cases of thymoma, it is necessary to differentiate between early and advanced disease before surgery since patients with locally advanced tumors require neoadjuvant chemotherapy for improving survival. This review aims to provide to radiologists a full spectrum of findings of thymic neoplasms using traditional and innovative imaging modalities. Abstract: Thymic tumors are rare neoplasms even if they are the most common primary neoplasm of the anterior mediastinum. In the era of advanced imaging modalities, such as functional MRI, dual- Citation: Gentili, F.; Monteleone, I.; Mazzei, F.G.; Luzzi, L.; Del Roscio, D.; energy CT, perfusion CT and radiomics, it is possible to improve characterization of thymic epithelial Guerrini, S.; Volterrani, L.; Mazzei, tumors and other mediastinal tumors, assessment of tumor invasion into adjacent structures and M.A.

  • Combined BRAF and MEK Inhibition with Vemurafenib and Cobimetinib for Patients with Advanced Melanoma
    Review Melanoma Combined BRAF and MEK Inhibition with Vemurafenib and Cobimetinib for Patients with Advanced Melanoma Antonio M Grimaldi, Ester Simeone, Lucia Festino, Vito Vanella and Paolo A Ascierto Melanoma, Cancer Immunotherapy and Innovative Therapy Unit, Istituto Nazionale Tumori Fondazione “G. Pascale”, Napoli, Italy cquired resistance is the most common cause of BRAF inhibitor monotherapy treatment failure, with the majority of patients experiencing disease progression with a median progression-free survival of 6-8 months. As such, there has been considerable A focus on combined therapy with dual BRAF and MEK inhibition as a means to improve outcomes compared with monotherapy. In the COMBI-d and COMBI-v trials, combined dabrafenib and trametinib was associated with significant improvements in outcomes compared with dabrafenib or vemurafenib monotherapy, in patients with BRAF-mutant metastatic melanoma. The combination of vemurafenib and cobimetinib has also been investigated. In the phase III CoBRIM study in patients with unresectable stage III-IV BRAF-mutant melanoma, treatment with vemurafenib and cobimetinib resulted in significantly longer progression-free survival and overall survival (OS) compared with vemurafenib alone. One-year OS was 74.5% in the vemurafenib and cobimetinib group and 63.8% in the vemurafenib group, while 2-year OS rates were 48.3% and 38.0%, respectively. The combination was also well tolerated, with a lower incidence of cutaneous squamous-cell carcinoma and keratoacanthoma compared with monotherapy. Dual inhibition of both MEK and BRAF appears to provide a more potent and durable anti-tumour effect than BRAF monotherapy, helping to prevent acquired resistance as well as decreasing adverse events related to BRAF inhibitor-induced activation of the MAPK-pathway.
