“…We compared the costs of cMDA to SBD to inform decision-making about future updates to STH policy.Design We conducted activity-based microcosting of cMDA and SBD for 2 years in Benin, India and Malawi within an ongoing cMDA trial.Setting Field sites and collaborating research institutions.Primary and secondary outcomes We calculated total financial and opportunity costs and costs per treatment administered (unit costs in 2019 USD ($)) from the service provider perspective, including costs related to community drug distributors and other volunteers.Results On average, cMDA unit costs were more expensive than SBD in India ($1.17 vs $0.72) and Malawi ($2.26 vs $1.69), and comparable in Benin ($2.45 vs $2.47). cMDA was more expensive than SBD in part because most costs (~60%) were ‘supportive costs’ needed to deliver treatment with high coverage, such as additional supervision and electronic data capture. …”

Clinical and genetic drivers of oligo-metastatic disease in colon cancer by Alessandro Ottaiano, Mariachiara Santorsola, Roberto Sirica, Annabella Di Mauro, Antonella Di Carlo, Monica Ianniello, Francesco Sabbatino, Rosa Castiello, Francesca Del Peschio, Marco Cascella, Francesco Perri, Maurizio Capuozzo, Nicola Martucci, Edoardo Mercadante, Valentina Borzillo, Rossella Di Franco, Francesco Izzo, Vincenza Granata, Carmine Picone, Antonella Petrillo, Massimiliano Berretta, Salvatore Stilo, Luca Tarotto, Anna Chiara Carratù, Gerardo Ferrara, Madhura Tathode, Alessia Maria Cossu, Marco Bocchetti, Michele Caraglia, Guglielmo Nasti, Giovanni Savarese

“…OMD patients exhibited distinct molecular characteristics, including lower frequencies of BRAF p.V600E (P=0.0315) and KRAS mutations (P=0.0456), as well as a higher frequency of high tumor mutational burden (P=0.0127). Additionally, by integrating data from public datasets and our case study, we hypothesize that some gene alterations (i.e.: BRAF, SMAD4, RAF1, and mTOR) may prevent OMD occurrence. …”
