Dr. Jun Cao: Enhancing Quality of Life in HR⁺ Breast Cancer—Entinostat Offers Patients a Path Back to Normalcy

As treatment options for hormone receptor-positive (HR⁺) breast cancer continue to diversify—from chemotherapy and endocrine therapy to targeted treatments—survival outcomes are improving. However, alongside extended survival, maintaining quality of life (QoL) and enabling patients to return to everyday life have become equally vital goals. Entinostat, a novel histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi), stands out with its well-tolerated safety profile and convenient dosing regimen. By enhancing both survival and QoL, it provides new therapeutic possibilities for HR⁺ breast cancer patients. Dr. Jun Cao from Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center shares insights into managing QoL in the chronic disease era and highlights the clinical advantages of entinostat.

EASL Liver Cancer Summit | Professor Abdel Ghani Atef: FibroScan Aids in Early Screening of Liver Cancer

EASL Liver Cancer Summit | Professor Abdel Ghani Atef: FibroScan Aids in Early Screening of Liver Cancer

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the most common primary malignant liver tumor, is one of the leading causes of death in patients with cirrhosis. Non-invasive diagnostic tools such as transient elastography (FibroScan) have shown great promise in identifying patients at high risk of HCC. Recently, the 2025 EASL Liver Cancer Summit was held in Paris, France. Professor Abdel Ghani Atef from the Damas Liver & G.I.T Center in Egypt presented research on the value of ultrasound elastography in the early detection of HCC in patients with cirrhosis. To this end, a journalist from Oncology Frontier traveled to the summit and invited Professor Abdel Ghani Atef to have an in-depth discussion on topics such as the role of FibroScan in HCC screening and the significance of liver stiffness measurement cutoff values.
