An In Vivo Study Of Lns8801, A Gper Agonist, In A Spontaneous Melanoma-Prone Mouse Model, Tgs., Christina Marinaro, John Sauer, Christopher A Natale, Todd Ridky, Suzie Chen

Rowan-Virtua School of Osteopathic Medicine Departmental Research

Melanoma is the most aggressive and deadly form of skin cancer that arises from the transformation of melanocytes, the pigment producing cells of the skin. In the year 2024 there will be approximately 10,000 new cases of melanoma diagnosed and approximately 8,000 deaths attributed to melanoma in the United States. In this study we treated a group of male and female transgenic mice that spontaneously develop metastatic melanoma, TGS, with a G-protein-coupled estrogen receptor agonist LNS8801 to assess the efficacy on disease progression. A second group of male and female TGS mice was also exposed to UVB irradiation to mimic …

Hearts Hidden Message: Right Ventricular Thrombus Reveals Esophageal Adenocarcinoma, Devika Adusumilli, Seline Haci, Jafri Imran, Arman Vaghefi, Mehdi Khalafi, Ikponmwosa Iyamu, Sarvanan Balamuthusamy

North Texas Research Forum 2025

Introduction Right ventricular thrombi are uncommon, usually found with concurrent pulmonary emboli and associated with significant mortality. They often originate from deep vein thrombi but may also be due to primary intracardiac processes . A right ventricular thrombus can be an unexpected marker for underlying malignancies, including esophageal cancer. This occurs due to the hypercoagulable state often induced by malignancy. Here we report a presentation where the identification of a right ventricular thrombus led to the diagnosis of esophageal cancer. Case Presentation Our patient is a 57-year old male with no past medical history who experienced an episode of dizziness …

Mycosis Fungoides: A Mimicker Of Atopic Dermatitis, Christian Scheufele, Paige Loux, Henry Lim, Garrett Furth, Marshall Hall, Michael Carletti, Stephen Weis

North Texas Research Forum 2025

Introduction Cutaneous T cell lymphoma (CTCL) is a rare, cutaneous, malignant neoplasm of the resident T cell lymphocytes within the skin. CTCL encompasses a spectrum of morphologically and prognostically distinct entities, the most common of which is mycosis fungoides (MF). The incidence of mycosis fungoides is about 6 cases per million per year in the United States and Europe. MF is notoriously difficult to diagnose clinically. It can masquerade as several common dermatologic conditions and may be treated as such for years until a biopsy reveals the correct diagnosis. One of the most common diseases that MF mimics is atopic …

Performance In Grading Of Well Differentiated Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors (Wdpannet) Using The 2019 World Health Organization (Who) Classification Of Tumors Of The Digestive System. Experience Of A Community Teaching Hospital., Astrid Sacasa, Gul Emek Wymer, Susana Ferra

East Florida Division GME Research Day 2025

CONTEXT: The WHO Classification of Tumors of the Digestive System (2019) categorizes WDPanNETs as grade 1 (G1), grade 2 (G2) or grade 3 (G3) by mitotic count and proliferative index (KI67). We examined the performance of pathologists and pathology trainees in grading WDPanNET according to the 2019 WHO Classification.

DESIGN: One H&E and KI-67 slides of eleven WDPanNET cases from our 2023 archives (7 G1, 1 G2 and 3 G3) were blindly evaluated by 2 junior residents (PGY-1), 2 senior residents (PGY-3), 2 pathologists without formal gastrointestinal training (NOGIP) and 2 pathologists with formal gastrointestinal training (GIP), provided with the …

Improving Colon & Rectal Cancer Screening At Medical City North Hills Clinic, Basil Nduma, Sharvani Raguthu, Gurunath Subrahmanyam, John Sturgeon

North Texas Research Forum 2025

Introduction: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally. Despite its severity, fewer than half of eligible Americans undergo annual screening. The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommends CRC screening from age 45 to 75, with personalized assessments for those aged 76 to 85. The current CRC screening rate at the Medical City North Hills Internal Medicine Residents’ Clinic is 9.3%, significantly below the target rate of over 66%. Objective: This project aimed to increase the CRC screening rate from 9.3% to over 66% at the Medical City North Hills Internal Medicine Residents Clinic, in …

Malignant Phyllodes Tumor With Osteosarcomatous Differentiation, Chris Robert, Kayla Mccarthy, Danielle Pigneri

North Texas Research Forum 2025

Introduction: Phyllodes tumors are fibroepithelial tumors accounting for 1% of primary breast neoplasm with malignant transformations occurring in 10-20% of the tumors. Heterologous osteosarcomatous differentiation is a rare and aggressive variant associated with poor prognosis. Case report: A 38-year-old female presented with a mass that she noticed a month ago with increase in size of mass to 10cm at time of presentation. A biopsy of the mass showed a fibroepithelial lesion with focal areas of stromal overgrowth, accompanied by stromal hypercellularity without evidence of nuclear pleomorphism, mitotic activity, necrosis and heterogenous elements most likely a benign phyllodes tumor. Due to …

Anti-Pd-1 Monoclonal Antibody Induced Diabetic Ketoacidosis In Melanoma, Boney Lapsiwala, Jacqueline Bekhit, Indira Tata, Vibhuti Veeranna

North Texas Research Forum 2025

Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), including pembrolizumab, are increasingly used in cancer therapy, particularly for melanoma. While effective, these agents are associated with various immune-related adverse events (IRAEs), including endocrine disorders like diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). This report aims to contribute to the understanding of pembrolizumab-induced DKA, especially in patients with pre-existing prediabetes. Case Presentation: A 78-year-old male with a history of melanoma, prediabetes, and other comorbidities developed DKA after 1.5 years of pembrolizumab treatment. He presented with symptoms of weakness, thirst, dry mouth, and diarrhea, alongside severe hyperglycemia and metabolic acidosis. Diagnostic workup confirmed DKA, and his clinical improvement followed …
