Open AccessComparison of clinical features between immune-related sclerosing cholangitis and hepatitis
Background Immune-related hepatotoxicity is often regarded as immune-related hepatitis (irHepatitis) despite including immune-related sclerosing cholangitis (irSC). This study examined the clinical differences be...

Correction to: Clinical and radiation dose-volume factors related to pneumonitis after treatment with radiation and durvalumab in locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer
Corrections are needed to the original version of this article. In Table 2, the “Odds ratio” of the variables “Lower lobe vs. Upper lobe” and “≥26 vs. <26” should be 2.250 instead of 2250 and 2.250 instead of ...

Open AccessClinical and radiation dose-volume factors related to pneumonitis after treatment with radiation and durvalumab in locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer
Introduction Durvalumab has been shown to confer a survival benefit after definitive chemoradiotherapy in the patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer, but no studies have attempted to identify r...

Evaluation of gefitinib systemic exposure in EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer patients with gefitinib-induced severe hepatotoxicity
Severe hepatotoxicity induced by the standard dose of gefitinib (250 mg daily) often becomes manageable by dose reduction to 250 mg every other day. Thus, we hypothesized that systemic exposure of standard-dos...
