Nectin-4 expression in vulvar squamous cell carcinoma. (PubMed, Virchows Arch)
One potential target for the ADC Enfortumab Vedotin (EV) is Nectin-4...Nectin-4 could be a potential target in the therapy of women with VSCC. Further (pre-)clinical data is needed to evaluate the use of EV in therapy of women with VSCC.

CXCL8 Promotes the Progression of Vulvar Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Serves as a Potential Prognostic Biomarker. (PubMed, Int J Womens Health)
Transcriptomic profiling explored CXCL8-activated pathways, including cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, transforming growth factor (TGF)-β signaling pathway, and tryptophan metabolism. These findings highlight CXCL8 as a potential prognostic biomarker for VSCC and underscore its role in driving tumor proliferation, providing a rationale for targeting CXCL8 in vulvar cancer therapy.

Diagnostic Utility of PRAME and SOX10 Immunostaining for Vulvar Melanocytic Lesions. (PubMed, Cureus)
SOX10 and PRAME are nuclear staining markers that can be used for diagnostic purposes and as adjunct markers for the diagnosis of VM and benign melanocytic lesions. PRAME immunostaining shows high specificity for melanoma and melanoma in situ.

Primary epithelioid angiosarcoma of the vulva: A rare tumor at an unusual site. (PubMed, Rare Tumors)
Further treatment consisted of adjuvant radiotherapy (61 Gy) and doxorubicin-based chemotherapy...Management involves radical surgical resection with adjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy as indicated. Reporting such cases is essential to enhance understanding and guide evidence-based management of these challenging neoplasms.

Oral Administration of Itraconazole Induces M1 Polarization of Tumor-associated Macrophages in Gynecological Cancer. (PubMed, In Vivo)
ITZ treatment was associated with increased infiltration of M1-like TAMs in cancer tissues, suggesting an immunomodulatory effect. These findings support further investigation of ITZ as a potential adjunct in cancer therapy.
