Abstract
Commentary on the newly released European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). After 6 years, individual chapters have been updated, from molecular tumor testing to diagnostic and treatment procedures to the implementation of newly registered medicinal products. The authors highlight the most important changes in the guidelines. Awareness of possible new treatments for mCRC is important to determine the treatment strategy for patients with mCRC. In this commentary, we focus primarily on the status of systemic treatment in unresectable disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatocellular carcinoma is the most common malignant liver tumor in adults and thermal ablation and transarterial embolization are important methods of therapy. Thermal ablation can be used in early stages. Methods based on the transarterial approach, especially transarterial chemoembolization, play an important role in intermediate stage diseases. The success of procedures depends not only on the biological nature and the size of the tumor, on the technical design of the procedure and on the patient's response to treatment, but also on the molecular changes associated with these procedures. In addition to classic predictive and prognostic factors including age, patient comorbidities, Child-Pugh score, tumor characteristics, presence of large surrounding vessels, and portal vein thrombosis, molecular prognostic and predictive factors (serum biomarkers) are often mentioned in studies. Currently, only a-fetoprotein is routinely used as a prognostic biomarker; however, there are studies referring to new serum biomarkers that can potentially help to classical markers and imaging methods to determine the cancer prognosis and predict the success of therapy. These biomarkers most often include g-glutamyltranspeptidase, des- g-carboxyprothrombin, some types of microRNAs, inflammatory and hypoxic substances, whose serum levels are changed by the intervention therapies. Evaluation of these molecules could lead to the optimization of the medical intervention (choice of therapy method, timing of treatment) or change the management of patient follow-up after interventions. Although several biomarkers have shown promising results, most serum biomarkers still require validation in phase III studies. PURPOSE The aim of this work is to present a comprehensive overview of classical and molecular biomarkers that could potentially help in the prognostic stratification of patients and better predict the success and effect of radiological intervention methods.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The consumption of soft drinks and energy drinks (SaED) in EU27 has hardly changed over the past decade. In contrast, it grows massively in Hungary, mainly among youths. In 2021, our research group studied the causes of the growing SaED consumption of primary school pupils. Now, we deliver our key findings on how pupils consider the health impacts of SaED consumption.
Methods
The study took place in a primary school in Komló, Hungary, in a mixed methods design: 157 pupils aged 10 to 15 filled out a survey, which we analyzed using descriptive statistical methods and independency tests. Besides, focus groups were conducted involving three stakeholder groups: a) school pupils; b) pupils’ parents; c) school teachers (39 respondents in total).
Results
Every fifth pupil consumes soft drinks daily and every third more than once a week. 28.1% of pupils consume energy drinks with some regularity, the majority more than once a week. Of those who think that soft drinks are rather unhealthy, 37.2% consume them daily or several times a week. Of those who believe that energy drinks are rather unhealthy, 24.6% consume them with some regularity. The focus groups confirmed that pupils perceive SaED consumption as accepted and “normal” behavior, and for the majority, the health consequences of the consumption are not a point.
Conclusions
Although many pupils are aware of the health risk of SaED, they still drink them regularly. The general social acceptance of SaED consumption and the influential marketing of these products both support this attitude. To affect consumers’ behavior, messages on how “unhealthy” SaED are does not seem adequate: a change in community acceptance is needed.
Key messages
• The knowledge of adverse health effects of soft and energy drinks itself won’t reduce consumption as long as its social acceptance is high.
• Preventive interventions should apply similar tools that have made soft and energy drink consumption popular and accepted to reverse recent trends.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
In spite of the significant shortage of migration health professionals in and out of Europe, higher education institutions are not really likely to accept WHO repeated calls for developing/ strengthening ‘migrant sensitive’ health care. Following the Syrian crisis in 2015/16, and now in Ukraine, millions of refugees have left their home country.
Objectives
University of Pécs Medical School (UPMS) - based on its broad experience in migration health training -, has developed a ‘crash training’ package, easy to implement in other higher education institututions.
Results
Within the frame of the program of the Hungarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs aiming to increase the migration health capacity in the Jordanian Kingdom, UPMS has established a bilateral cooperation with the Jordanian University in Amman and has offered to implement and monitor a seven-day satellite crash training on migration health.
- The program was developed in a form of ‘problem-based learning’, aiming to strengthen the self-activity of the students, while solving the task: how to establish a refugee camp addressing the challenge of high and rapid influx of migrants from the region.
- The necessary theoretical background provided by the expert team was set up around the territories as follows: international guidelines and experiences, epidemiological and public health challenges, the role of cultural competence, mental health aspects including the need for ‘helping the helpers’ as well.
Conclusions
The program included a pre- and post-test component, aiming to monitor the change in knowledge, attitude, and commitment. Detailed results will be introduced during the presentation.

Abstract
Background Fatigue is one of the most common adverse effects associated with cancer immunotherapy using checkpoint inhibitors (CPIs). Because treatment-related fatigue also frequently occurs in patients treated with non-immunological therapies, our study aimed to compare the incidence of fatigue in CPI-treated patients with that associated with non-immune therapies in randomised trials. Methods PubMed and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched for phase III studies using a CPI alone or in combination with chemotherapy or non-immunologic targeted therapy in the experimental arm and control arm using inactive therapies such as placebo or observation, chemotherapy, or non-immunologic targeted therapy. Adverse events listed in the full texts as well as those available from clinicaltrials.gov were reviewed for all identified studies. Results A total of 60 studies involving 41 435 patients were included in the analysis. All-grade fatigue was reported in 30.4% of patients [95% confidence interval (CI) 29.9% to 31.0%] in the immunotherapy arms of the analysed studies. Using anti-programmed cell death protein 1 agents as reference, the odds ratio (OR) for fatigue was significantly higher both for anti-cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 agents (OR 1.46, 95% CI 1.04-2.04) and the combination of anti-cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 and anti-programmed cell death protein agents (OR 1.43, 95% CI 1.12-1.83). Fatigue was significantly less likely to occur in patients treated with CPI compared with patients receiving chemotherapy (OR 0.79, 95% CI 0.73-0.85), but significantly was more common in patients receiving the combination of CPI/chemotherapy compared with patients receiving chemotherapy alone (OR 1.12, 95% CI 1.03-1.22). Conclusions Although immunotherapy using CPIs was associated with treatment-related fatigue, the occurrence of all-grade fatigue was significantly higher in patients treated with chemotherapy compared with patients receiving CPIs. The risk of fatigue was higher for CPI/chemotherapy combinations than for chemotherapy alone. These results suggest that although the effects of CPIs and chemotherapy are additive, chemotherapy was the dominant cause of treatment-related fatigue in the analysed trials. Fatigue is a common adverse event associated with cancer immunotherapy but also with other therapies and with cancer itself. This meta-analysis analysed the incidence of fatigue reported in phase III trials of checkpoint inhibitors. Fatigue was more common in patients treated with chemotherapy compared with patients receiving checkpoint inhibitors. Chemotherapy was the dominant cause of fatigue in combinations of chemotherapy and checkpoint inhibitors.

Abstract
AbstractThe performance levels of a computing machine running a given workload configuration are crucial for both users and providers of computing resources. Knowing how well a computing machine is running with a given workload configuration is critical to making proper computing resource allocation decisions. In this paper, we introduce a novel framework for deriving computing machine and computing resource performance indicators for a given workload configuration. We propose a workload/machine index score (WISE) framework for computing a fitness score for a workload/machine combination. The WISE score indicates how well a computing machine is running with a specific workload configuration by addressing the issue of whether resources are being stressed or sitting idle wasting precious resources. In addition to encompassing any number of computing resources, the WISE score is determined by considering how far from target levels the machine resources are operating at without maxing out. Experimental results demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed WISE framework on two distinct workload configurations.

Abstract
Nowadays, selection of appropriate therapy in patients with lung cancer is based on comprehensive molecular characteristics of their tumors. On molecular level, lung cancer is one of the best described solid tumors. Currently, there are already methods in routine clinical practice that enable a relatively quick, accurate and cost-effective analysis of dozens of genes and thus make it possible to determine a complex molecular characteristic of a tumor. This creates new possibilities to tailor the treatment to the patients to achieve long-term survival with a good quality of life. New technologies bring more and more information and to transform it into the best clinical benefit for the patient can be challenging. This is a place for the multidisciplinary approach in the form of a molecular tumor board. Its role is to try to indicate appropriate therapy based on the identified genetic alteration. Today, dozens of targeted drugs are available and new treatment options are emerging even for genetic alterations, which until now seemed to be undruggable.

Abstract
Immunotherapy with check-point inhibitors has demonstrated remarkable therapeutic benefits in many oncological diagnoses, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Based on the data from clinical trials, it has become an important part of the NSCLC treatment algorithm. Treatment with programmed cell death protein 1 / programmed death-ligand 1 inhibitors can be indicated in various ways: as monotherapy or combination of immunotherapy with cytotox--ic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 inhibitors or in combination with other treatment modalities - chemotherapy, antiangiogenic therapy and radiotherapy. Regarding new spectrum of immune-related side effects, which require quick diagnosis and treatment, there is great urge to identify immunotherapy predictive biomarkers.

Abstract
Fowl adenoviruses (FAdV), detected during routine diagnostic investigations from 38 countries (5 continents) over a decade, were partially sequenced and grouped by phylogenetic analysis. The partial polymerase gene nucleotide sequences of the 365 fowl adenovirus isolates resulted in the following species distribution: 11% FAdV-A; 3% FAdV-B; 2% FAdV-C; 34% FAdV-D; and 50% FAdV-E. Noticeably, only 79 of the detected strains could be associated with adenovirus-specific pathologic conditions: 62 (79%) with inclusion body hepatitis; 9 (11%) with gizzard erosion; and 8 (10%) with hepatitis hydropericardium syndrome. The remainder of the FAdV strains was detected as concomitant infection from other disease conditions almost exclusively in boilers of 27 to 42 d of age: the majority of them was FAdV-E followed by FAdV-D, and to a lesser extent of FAdV-A, B, and C, the latter ones have not been associated with any of the established adenovirus-caused syndromes in our collection. The highest ratio of coinfections was observed for FAdV-B (62%), while it was about 30% for the rest of the FAdV species. The most frequent coinfection, in connection with all FAdV species, was with the avian infectious bronchitis virus. The presented database will serve as the basis for comparative whole genome and cross-neutralization analysis of selected FAdV isolates.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
So far little attention has been given to the physical and mental health of homeless caregivers. Their health behavior can serve as role model for homeless people. For this reason, the aim of our study was to identify the health problems and health behavior of homeless caregivers.
Methods
We conducted a representative nationwide survey including 559 individuals to determine the homeless caregivers' health status and health behavior. The results were compared with the age and sex adjusted data of the European Health Interview Survey 2014 that was carried out in the general Hungarian adult population.
Results
The majority of participants (71%) gave positive ratings to their own health, they considered their health status significantly better compared to the general population (p = 0.002). Of them 34% had chronic disease compared to the 39% of the general population, 27% experienced limitation because of their health problems. Their mental status was worse than the general population, 40% had depression compared to the 23% of the reference. Majority of them (59%) were obese or overweight, those who lived in countryside were more likely to be obese or overweight than those who lived in the capital (p = 0.02). Only 41% of them consumed fruits and 26% of them consumed vegetables on a daily basis. These rates were significantly lower compared to the general population, p < 0.008. Most of them (62%) were occasional drinker. The prevalence of current smokers (37%) were higher among them than in the general population (32%)
Conclusions
In conclusion, the homeless caregivers had worse mental health status than the general Hungarian population. They were also characterized by unhealthy lifestyle such as inadequate fruit and vegetable consumption and high rate of smoking. As caregivers serve as a role model for homeless people, supporting their health and health behavior might have strong effect on health of homeless people as well.
Key message
The survey’s findings indicate the health program for homeless caregivers would be worthwhile specially focusing on smoking cessation, healthy eating and mental health.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the most common malignancy of pancreas, characterized by extremely poor prognosis largely due to problem with early diagnosis and lack of progress in personalization of therapy. Of all available treatment strategies, radical surgical resection of the tumour in its early stage remains the only possibility how to reach long-term survival. However, even a technically perfect surgical resection may still not provide a survival benefit for all PDAC patients. Appropriate selection of patients for surgical resection is one the important medical needs in management of PDAC patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS To this study we enrolled 24 PDAC patients who underwent surgical resection and preoperatively collected their blood plasma specimends. Patients were divided into to two prognostic groups according to their overall survival - 12 patients with poor prognosis (median overall survival 10 months) and 12 patients with good prognosis (median overall survival 25 months). Small RNA sequencing technology was applied to screen for microRNAs (miRNA) with differential levels between both PDAC patients group. cDNA libraries were prepared using QIAseq miRNA Library Kit (Qiaqen) and sequencing by NextSeq500 instrument (Illumina). RESULTS When miRNA expression profiles of the PDAC patients from good and poor prognostic groups were compared, 61 miRNAs were identified to have significantly different plasma levels between the two groups (p < 0.05). A total of 21 miRNAs showed increased expression and 40 miRNAs showed decreased expression in a group of patients with poor prognosis compared to patients with good prognosis. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated differences in miRNA expression profiles in preoperative plasma specimens of PDAC patients with short and long overall survival. Our observations indicate that after independent validations plasma miRNAs might become useful biomarkers for identification of PDAC patients having clinical benefit from surgical resection of the tumour.

Abstract
BackgroundThe efficacies of second-generation antipsychotic medications in reducing symptoms are reasonably well-documented, but their effects on cognition are less clearly understood.AimsTo undertake an interim analysis of an open label, 2-year study examining the effects of quetiapine on cognition in patients with a first episode of schizophrenia and related disorders.MethodCognitive testing was performed before quetiapine was initiated and repeated after 3, 6 and 12 months of treatment. To date, 13 patients have been fully assessed (mean dose 517.9 mg/day; s.d.=225.8).ResultsStatistically significant improvement was noted on measures of attention (Continuous Performance Test; CPT), verbal productivity (Verbal Fluency Test) and executive function (Object Alternation Test) after 6 and 12 months of treatment. For the CPT, improvement was also noted after 3 months of treatment.ConclusionsDuring treatment for 1 year with quetiapine, cognitive performance was improved in young patients with psychosis. Continued controlled investigations of the effects of quetiapine on cognition are desirable.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The lower part of the digestive tract includes the large intestine, rectum and anus. Treatment algorithms of cancers in these localities have significant differences in both early and advanced stages. The vast majority of metastatic cases are incurable. A few years ago, it was generally accepted that gastrointestinal tumors are poorly immunogenic and modern immunotherapy would not work in gastrointestinal cancers. The breakthrough has become the recognition of the mismatch repair system (MMR) that affects the microsatellite instability (MSI) and its role in the development of colorectal carcinoma (CRC). Metastatic colorectal carcinoma (mCRC) with defect MMR (dMMR) and MSI-H, resp. is immunogenic and can be a target of modern imunotherapy directed on the PD1/PD-L1 axis. Such a treatment can improve prognosis and life quality od patients with mCRC MSI-H. Immunotherapy effectiveness was shown also in a subgroup of patients with a BRAF mutation where the effectiveness of existing systemic treatment is low. The proven predictive factor is dMMR/MSI-H. PD-1 expression does not have this significance. Results of clinical studies with nivolumab and pembrolizumab result in the inclusion of these drugs in mCRC treatment algorithms. Phase II study shows nivolumab effectiveness also in pretreated metastatic anal cancer. PURPOSE An overview of basic information on the possibilities of immunotherapy in CRC and anal cancers.Key words: cancer immunotherapy - checkpoint inhibitors - colorectal cancer - anal cancer - nivolumab - pembrolizumab Supported by MH CZ - DRO (MMCI, 00209805) I declare that, in connection with the abovementioned contribution, which I am an author, I have a conflict of interest with the following companies: BMS, Roche, Merck, Amgem and Bayer.

Abstract
It has been reported that some of the food additives may cause sensitization, inflammation of tissues, and potentially risk factors in the development of several chronic diseases. Thus, we hypothesized that expressions of common inflammatory molecules - known to be involved in the development of various inflammatory conditions and cancers - are affected by these food additives. We investigated the effects of commonly used food preservatives and artificial food colorants based on the expressions of NFκB, GADD45α, and MAPK8 (JNK1) from the tissues of liver. RNA was isolated based on Trizol protocol and the activation levels were compared between the treated and the control groups. Tartrazine alone could elicit effects on the expressions of NFκB (p = 0.013) and MAPK8 (p = 0.022). Azorubine also resulted in apoptosis according to MAPK8 expression (p = 0.009). Preservatives were anti-apoptotic in high dose. Sodium benzoate (from low to high doses) dose-dependently silenced MAPK8 expression (p = 0.004 to p = 0.002). Addition of the two preservatives together elicited significantly greater expression of MAPK8 at half-fold dose (p = 0.002) and at fivefold dose (p = 0.008). This study suggests that some of the food preservatives and colorants can contribute to the activation of inflammatory pathways.

Abstract
Bevacizumab is a humanized anti-vascular endothelial growth factor monoclonal antibody, used in combination with a oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy in the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). The aim of the present study was to identify microRNA (miRNA)-based predictive biomarkers of therapy response in order to avoid unnecessary and costly therapy to non-responding patients. High-throughput miRNA microarray profiling (Affymetrix miRNA array) was performed on a discovery cohort of patients with mCRC. The discovery cohort was (n=20) divided into either responding (n=10) or non-responding (n=10) groups of bevacizumab/5-flourouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin (FOLFOX) treatment according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors criteria. Validation of candidate miRNAs was performed on an independent cohort of 41 patients with mCRC using quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Normalized data were subjected to receiver operating characteristic and Kaplan-Meier analyses. In total, 67 miRNAs were identified to be differentially expressed when miRNA expression was compared between responding and non-responding patients to bevacizumab/FOLFOX treatment (P<0.05). A total of 7 miRNAs were chosen for independent validation, which confirmed significantly higher expression of miR-92b-3p, miR-3156-5p, miR-10a-5p and miR-125a-5p (P<0.005) in tumor tissue of responding patients compared with non-reponding patients. Using the combination of miRNAs, the present study identified responders to the therapy with sensitivity 82% and specificity 64% (area under the curve = 0.8015). In conclusion, 4 predictive miRNAs associated with progression-free survival (PFS) were identified in patients with mCRC treated with bevacizumab/FOLFOX. Following further independent validations, detection of these miRNA may enable identification of patients with mCRC who may potentially benefit from the therapy.

Abstract
An anonymous questionnaire survey was conducted among the Hungarian adolescents to establish their use of tobacco, alcohol and drugs in relation to sexual behaviours, knowledge of human papillomavirus (HPV) and cervical cancer, and beliefs and attitudes towards screening and vaccination. Results indicated that adolescent risk-taking health behaviours correlate with risky sexual behaviours. As risk-taking behaviours do not correlate with a better awareness of the risk associated with HPV infection, it is of crucial importance that HPV/cervical cancer preventing educational programmes shall be sensitive to this 'vulnerable' population and draw the attention of these adolescents to their increased risk of sexually transmitted diseases and undesired pregnancies. Well-designed behavioural change interventions may be effective when in addition to providing adolescents (both men and women) with clear information about the implications of an HPV infection, they also aim to improve safer sex behaviours: consistent condom usage, limiting the number of sex partners, as well as encouraging regular participation in gynaecological screenings and uptake of the HPV vaccine. As this study population demonstrated positive attitudes towards the primary and secondary prevention of cervical cancer, the free HPV vaccination for the 12-13-year-old girls in Autumn 2014 will hopefully increase the currently low uptake of the vaccine in Hungary.

Abstract
Schizophrenia is characterized by anomalous perceptual experiences (e.g., sensory irritation, inundation, and flooding) and specific alterations in visual perception. We aimed to investigate the effects of short-term antipsychotic medication on these perceptual alterations. We assessed 28 drug-naïve first episode patients with schizophrenia and 20 matched healthy controls at baseline and follow-up 8 weeks later. Contrast sensitivity was measured with steady- and pulsed-pedestal tests. Participants also received a motion coherence task, the Structured Interview for Assessing Perceptual Anomalies (SIAPA), and the Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS). Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy was used to measure gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) levels in the occipital cortex (GABA/total creatine [Cr] ratio). Results revealed that, comparing baseline and follow-up values, patients with schizophrenia exhibited a marked sensitivity reduction on the steady-pedestal test at low spatial frequency. Anomalous perceptual experiences were also significantly ameliorated. Antipsychotic medications had no effect on motion perception. RBANS scores showed mild improvements. At baseline, but not at follow-up, patients with schizophrenia outperformed controls on the steady-pedestal test at low spatial frequency. The dysfunction of motion perception (higher coherence threshold in patients relative to controls) was similar at both assessments. There were reduced GABA levels in schizophrenia at both assessments, which were not related to perceptual functions. These results suggest that antipsychotics dominantly affect visual contrast sensitivity and anomalous perceptual experiences. The prominent dampening effect on low spatial frequency in the steady-pedestal test might indicate the normalization of putatively overactive magnocellular retino-geniculo-cortical pathways.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors. Despite the constant promotion of prevention remains around 20- 30% of cases dia-gnosed in the metastatic stage and approximately 50- 60% of patients developed the late dissemination. In 80- 90% of them we can find already unresectable metastases. Although surgical treatment is basic modality of therapy, with using mo-dern targeted therapy in combination with chemotherapy we can achieve longterm complete remission in the cases of advanced tumor and we can significantly prolonged the life of patients with this disease now. About 40- 50% patients in advanced stages who underwent metastasectomy survives 5-years and 10year survival rate is up to 25%. When administered systemic treatment median overall survival in these cases reaches around 24 months.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to assess the human papillomavirus (HPV) prevalence in cervical, oropharyngeal and anal samples of the high-risk population of Hungarian female sex workers (FSWs). HPV testing of swab specimens from FSWs (n = 34) using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methodology was performed. Results were compared with control group (n = 52) matched for age. Questionnaires were used to obtain data regarding participants' sexual behaviour. Data were analysed using SPSS. HPV DNA was detected in at least one location in a great majority of FSWs (82.4%), compared with 46.2% of the general female population (P < 0.05). Both the cervical and the anal samples of sex workers showed higher infection rates than those of controls (64.7% vs. 34.6% and 50.0% vs. 15.4%, respectively, P < 0.05). High-risk HPV prevalence was also significantly higher in sex workers (55.9% vs. 25.0%, P < 0.05). A significantly higher proportion of FSWs had a history of genital warts (26.5% vs. 3.8%, P < 0.05). The results suggest that condom use may not result in adequate protection from HPV infection. The high infection rates among FSWs should be viewed as a priority group for HPV and cervical cancer prevention programmes since they are sources of HPV infection for the general population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence of renal cell carcinoma in the Czech Republic is one of the highest in the world. Curative treatment is still possible only surgically, while in the palliative treatment, partial success was reached using targeted therapies. While prognostic factors and models are commonly used in clinical practice, unfortunately, predictive biomarkers have not been found. The aim of our study was to verify the validity of selected prognostic factors on a consecutive patient cohort from the Czech population. PATIENTS AND METHODS The patient cohort consisted of 544 patients with RCC diagnosed and/or treated at our institute from 2003 to 2010. Individual clinical and histological prognostic factors and Heng prognostic model were validated. RESULTS Median time of follow-up for our cohort was 42 months (range 0.3-326 months), median age at diagnosis was 62 years, and almost 64% of patients were men. Distribution of clinical stages was as follows: 46.5% of I, II. 10.7%, III. 13.1%, IV. 20%. 26.4% of patients in stage I-III relapsed. We diagnosed mainly clear cell (84.6%) and papillary carcinoma (9.2%). Initially, 95.8% of patients underwent surgical treatment, systemic adjuvant and palliative treatment was applied in 3.7 and 37.7% of patients, respectively. Palliative targeted therapy was received by a total of 163 patients (30%). In first-line targeted therapy, the following median TTP was reached (in months): 10.8 for sunitinib, 6.3 for sorafenib and 5.2 months for immunotherapy. The most significant prognostic factors (p < 0.00001) were: stage of disease (HR = 9.61), size of the primary tumor (HR = 5.83), lymph nodes (HR = 8.26), presence of sarcomatoid tumor sections in the tumor (HR = 7.29), and tumor grade (HR = 4.0). Besides these, we also confirmed the prognostic importance of presence of eosinophilic granulations in the tumor (HR = 1.91, p = 0.02). When applying the Heng prognostic model, we achieved similar results for patients treated with targeted therapies. CONCLUSION The obtained epidemiological and clinico-pathological data are consistent with previously published data. These prognostic factors can be used for a differentiated approach to patients with RCC, both for establishing follow-up plan for patients after surgery as well as indication for targeted therapies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Malignant melanoma is considered to be highly resistant to chemotherapy, radiotherapy, hormonotherapy and standard immunotherapy (interleukin 2, interferon alpha). Radical surgery in the early stages of the disease is still the most efficient method. Since the development of immunotherapy and targeted therapy, the role of palliative chemotherapy for advanced disease may be changing. CASE A case report regarding 44-year-old woman with extensive tumor of the pectoral wall with contralateral axillary lymphadenopathy is presented. On the basis of imaging methods, histology and immunohistochemistry, the tumor was defined as a sarcoma. Due to PAX7-FKHR fusion gene positivity, rhabdomyosarcoma was the most probable classification. The patient was treated with radical chemotherapy including iphosphamide, vincristine, actinomycin D and doxorubicin with the effect of partial regression of the tumor. This enabled radical surgery of the chest wall tumor. Pathology proved 70% necrosis of the tumor. A contralateral axillary dissection was performed with a finding of two lymph nodes infiltrated with melanoma. The immunohistochemistry markers S100, HMB-45 and Melan A were positive. This resulted in a reclassification of the chest wall tumor to malignant melanoma. The following PET/CT scan was negative. A massive progression of the disease occurred after 5 months. B-RAF mutation leads to a plan of targeted therapy with vemurafenib. CONCLUSION The case demonstrates the limits of the sensitivity and specificity of immunohistochemical markers of melanoma and the ability of this tumor to imitate various tumors including soft tissue sarcomas. A rare -PAX7-FKHR fusion gene positivity considered specific for rhabdomyosarcoma was found. An extraordinary response to radical chemotherapy with surgical resection led to an improvement of the quality of life and to a prolonged survival comparable with the effect of new targeted treatment for malignant melanoma.
