Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Adrenocortical cancer (ACC) is a rare and often aggressive malignancy. The overall 5-year survival rate of ACC is less than 30% in part owing to advanced stage of the disease at diagnosis and limited efficiency of therapies when initial surgery is not curative. So far, studies with large cohorts of patients affected by ACC were lacking because of the rarity of the disease; however, recent international and multicenter collaborative studies provide new insights in the management of ACC. RECENT FINDINGS: This review summarizes recent findings in the genetic, hormonal evaluation, imaging, and therapies of ACC in adults. There is new promise for the use of 2-[fluorine-18]fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose-positron emission tomography and metomidate in initial diagnosis and follow-up. Limited studies support benefit of specific surgical approaches such as loco-regional lymph node dissection and metastasectomy in specific subgroups. New developments in the use of mitotane therapy and its drug interactions, on adjuvant radiotherapy and prospective data on combined chemotherapy, have appeared recently. SUMMARY: These recent findings will provide more evidence-based recommendations in the future to better assist clinicians in the management of patients with ACC. However, there is still an important need to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying this disease to design better therapeutic approaches.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
