BackgroundTo study the corresponding strategies for controlling cancer in older adults aged 60 and above in China, a comprehensive assessment of disease burden is required. Therefore, we will introduce the...
Conclusions: The cancer incidence in Chinese older adults aged 60 and above showed a decreasing trend, but it was still at a relatively high level. The key targets of prevention and treatment should be males, urban areas, younger people, older adults aged 60–69, lung, gastrointestinal, and breast cancers in the future.
p16 methylation is a potential predictive marker for abemaciclib sensitivity in gastric cancer

Cell cycle control is often disrupted in gastric cancer (GC), making it an attractive therapeutic target. Abemaciclib is a specific CDK4/6 inhibitor that has been shown to improve treatment efficacy...
Relevance: Cell cycle control is often disrupted in gastric cancer (GC), making it an attractive therapeutic target. Abemaciclib is a specific CDK4/6 inhibitor that has been shown to improve treatment efficacy in hormone receptor-positive advanced breast cancer; however, its potential therapeutic value and predictive markers have not yet been...
