Oncologist . 2021 Sep; 26(11):927-933. PMID: 34472667
Background: In early trials, hypersensitivity reactions (HSRs) to paclitaxel were common, thus prompting the administration of antihistamines and corticosteroids before every paclitaxel dose. We tested the safety of omitting corticosteroids...

Am J Clin Oncol . 2021 Jun; 44(9):449-455. PMID: 34149037
Objectives: Dermal lymphatic invasion (DLI) with tumor emboli is a common pathologic characteristic of inflammatory breast cancer (IBC), although its presence is not required for diagnosis. We examined whether documented...
