Precision Molecular Pathology of Lung Cancer
This new edition provides the latest information and insights into the molecular basis for lung cancer. Since the publication of the previous edition of this volume, dramatic changes have occurred with the classification of lung cancer, biomarker testing, and molecular therapy. The book covers these changes, providing updates and new insights on the background of lung cancer, testing methods, and the molecular pathology of specific cell types, including adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, small cell carcinoma, and precursor and preinvasive lesions. Authored by experts in the field, Precision Molecular Pathology of Lung Cancer, Second Edition remains one of the few books that comprehensively covers the new molecular pathology of lung cancer and is a valuable resource for pathologists, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, thoracic surgeons, and thoracic radiologists.
Environmental Oncology
This book covers the wide range of malignant illness and where they intersect with environmental factors. Chapters explore the importance of acknowledging and dealing with the societal implications of anthropogenic climate change, a wider appreciation of the many ways that human industry and activity is changing the environment and contributing to human disease is imperative. In addition to how particular exposures relate to certain malignancies, the book explores historical events that led to the development of cancers in order to help policy makers and patient advocates understand where we have been when considering future initiatives. It also discusses the disparities involved in environmental toxin exposure and look at these cancers in light of the need to reduce cancer disparities. Given the ongoing ecological crisis from climate change and expanding human population and industrialization, this book examines pollution and ecological change to impacts and where human disease can be prevented.
Uveal Melanoma
This book provides a comprehensive examination of uveal melanoma, a rare neoplasm that carries a very high mortality and whose natural history makes it fairly unique among adult tumors. Split into three sections, this book explores the basic science behind the disease and inherited genetic syndromes that predispose some patients, as well as the pathology and use of gene expression profiling to determine risk of recurrence. It also focuses on the management of the primary tumor in the eye, including surgical intervention and lesion imaging. Elucidating treatment options for metastatic disease, the book reviews chemotherapy agents and immunotherapy approaches, as well as liver-directed therapies, cellular therapies, and various treatments after primary treatment but before the development of metastases. Uveal Melanoma: Biology and Management is the most up-to-date and comprehensive text devoted solely to this disease and will be useful to medical oncologists, ophthalmologists, radiation therapists, interventional radiologists, pathologists, molecular biologists and immunology researchers, as well as trainees in those fields.
Cancer and Society
While a number of books have looked at the intersection between human health in general and other topics, such as climate change or diet, this book focuses specifically on cancer as it impacts and is impacted by social justice issues. The massive explosion of research knowledge of cancer immunology and genomics is holding out great promise of therapeutic advances, yet other human actions—climate change, pollution, business decisions, advertising – are fostering health inequalities as well as increasing risks. Those involved in cancer care and research are in a unique position to let their experiences and knowledge inform the public, yet very often have not taken strong public roles when ...
Lung Adenocarcinoma: From Genomics to Immunotherapy
Lung cancer is the second most common type of cancer and is the leading cause of cancer death globally. In 2018, almost 2.1 million new cases were diagnosed, accounting for ~12% of the cancer burden worldwide. The malignant stage of lung tumor is known as lung adenocarcinoma, which is most common and is diagnosed in both smokers and non-smokers.There are two main types of lung cancer, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Genomic studies have indicated that more than 80% of lung malignancies are classified as NSCLC, of which adenocarcinoma is a predominant subtype. Although significant progress has been made in treating tumor with targetable driver mutations, ...
