Opis:
Introduction: Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) are the standard of treatment in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with EGFR (endothelial growth factor receptor) gene activating mutation. Objective: The evaluation of the efficacy and toxicity of TKI drugs in NSCLC patients treated in single centre. Material and methods: NSCLC patients treated with TKI (gefitinib, erlotynib, afatinib) between 2012– 2016 were retrospectively analysed. We evaluated: overall response rate (ORR) which is the sum of complete responses (CR) and partial remissions (PR), progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and adverse events (AE) according to CTCAE (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events) scale. Results: The study group were 16 patients ORR was 50% (CR: 1, PR: 7). Median PFS and OS was 8,7 and 22,9 months respectively. Adverse events observed mainly in stage 1 and 2 were related to hyponatraemia, hyperbilirubinemia, skin toxicity and mucositis. There was one death reported due to infectious complications. Conclusion: The efficacy and toxicity of TKI in study group were found to be similar to those described in the literature.

Opis:
Immunotherapy supports other therapeutic methods and is an important element in the fight against cancer. Its main tasks include stimulation and guidance of the immune system to fight cancer, inhibition of the mechanisms that block the immune system, and direct destruction of neoplastic cells. Different from chemotherapy or hormonal therapy, its mechanism of action is associated with a different profile of adverse events. HER2 receptor inhibitors may cause symptoms of heart failure, which usually recede, once the treatment has been discontinued. Bevacizumab, an anti-VEGF antibody, induces numerous cardiovascular complications, including arterial hypertension, arterial embolism, haemorrhage and haemoptysis as well as venous thromboembolism.

Opis:
Acromegaly is a rare disease, caused by growth hormone (GH) hypersecretion and secondarily elevated insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) level. Nearly all patients with acromegaly suffer from somatotroph pituitary adenoma. The main goal of treatment is to normalise both GH and IGF-1 levels, which reduces symptoms, complications and mortality. Transsphenoidal selective adenomectomy performed by an experienced neurosurgeon is the first-line therapy. Therapy with somatostatin analogues (SSA) is used as a neoadjuvant treatment prior to surgery and in a persistent disease following the surgery. The long-acting somatostatin analogues reduce serum GH/IGF-1 levels and tumour volume. In this clinical review, mechanisms and role of 1st and 2nd generation somatostatin analogues in the treatment of patients with acromegaly are presented, with particular emphasis on the effects on somatotroph pituitary adenoma volume reduction.
