Read MorePleural Mesothelioma: Pathogenesis, Diagnosis, Treatment, Prognosis, and Survival
MedComm 2025 September 1 [Link] Libo Zhang, Meijuan Huang Abstract Pleural mesothelioma (PM) presents significant challenges in clinical management, with current treatment options such as chemotherapy, anti-angiogenic therapies, and immunotherapies only modestly extending progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Another relevant reason is the absence of subsequent-line therapy strategies following progression of PM after…
