Exploration of the Synergistic Effect of Chitosan Oligosaccharide and Dacarbazine (DTIC) in the Treatment of Melanoma. (PubMed, Curr Cancer Drug Targets)
Notably, COS-2 not only enhanced the anti-tumor efficacy of DTIC but also alleviated its side effects. The combination therapy with COS and DTIC exhibited a synergistic effect and may be a promising therapeutic strategy for melanoma.

A Case of Metastatic Melanoma Refractory to Immunotherapy: Is Cytotoxic Chemotherapy Still an Effective Option? (PubMed, Cureus)
Interestingly, some of these patients may derive meaningful benefit from cytotoxic chemotherapy. We present the report of a case of a 63-year-old lady with BRAF wild type, locally advanced mucosal melanoma who demonstrated disease progression on combination immunotherapy with Ipilimumab and nivolumab. She subsequently achieved an exceptional and durable radiological and clinical response to chemotherapy with cisplatin and dacarbazine. This case highlights that, despite advances in personalized medicine and immunotherapy, conventional chemotherapy may still represent a valuable therapeutic option in selected patients, particularly in the refractory setting.

Hodgkin Variant Richter's Transformation in the Absence of Classical Risk Factors: A Rare Case With Spinal Manifestation. (PubMed, Cureus)
After receiving six cycles of brentuximab+doxorubicin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (A+AVD) therapy at our Department of Hematology (University of Debrecen), the patient achieved complete metabolic remission (CMR) and remains in good condition. HL-RT in CLL is relatively rare and generally associated with poorer outcomes, though it is typically more favorable than DLBCL-RT. In this case report, we highlight not only an uncommon anatomical location of HL-RT but also the absence of typical predisposing factors, such as a TP53 mutation, unmutated immunoglobulin heavy chain (IGHV) status, or a lack of 13q deletion.
