OBJECTIVE
In this Phase 1, multicenter, open-label study, intetumumab (CNTO 95), a fully human anti-αv integrin monoclonal antibody was evaluated for safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamic activity in patients with melanoma or angiosarcoma.
METHODS
Patients with histologically-confirmed
Angiosarcoma, one of the least common sarcomas, occurs most commonly in the skin and soft tissues, and postirradiation angiosarcoma of the greater omentum is extremely rare. Only one reported case of postirradiation angiosarcoma involved the greater omentum. We describe the case of 74-year-old
Introduction. Angiosarcoma is a rare cancer of the inner lining of blood vessels and can arise anywhere in the body, most commonly presenting as cutaneous disease in elderly patient, involving head and neck (H&N), especially the scalp. Pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) is one of the available
BACKGROUND
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors are the most common mesenchymal tumors of the gastrointestinal tract and occur rarely in the duodenum. Splenic angiosarcoma is an aggressive neoplasm with an extremely poor prognosis.
METHODS
We report a case of a 70-year-old man hospitalized for abdominal
Angiosarcoma of the heart is an uncommon soft tissue sarcoma. A few cases of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) associated with angiosarcoma occurring in various organs, but not the heart, have been reported. Although taxane is commonly used in the treatment of metastatic angiosarcoma,
Autopsy or surgical specimens from six patients with primary cardiac angiosarcoma seen at the Mayo Clinic (all in men) between 1939 and 1988 were studied (patients' ages, 31 to 80 years; mean 50 years). The symptoms were nonspecific and included dyspnea and thoracoabdominal pain in six; anorexia in
We present a case of angiosarcoma in small bowel, presenting with partial small bowel obstruction in a 79-year-old man with no history of radiation, chemotherapy, toxin exposure, or previous operative intervention. Angiosarcoma of small bowel is a rare entity which may present with nausea, abdominal
Introduction: Pancreas angiosarcoma is a very aggressive malignant neoplasm. The symptoms are nonspecific and it is usually diagnosed at an advanced stage, which confers a poor prognosis.
Presentation of
Angiosarcoma is a rare malignant tumor which occurs frequently in the skin and soft subcutis. Moreover, primary gastrointestinal angiosarcomas are very rare. This tumor manifests as non-specific symptoms such as gastrointestinal bleeding, abdominal pain and nausea. The diagnosis is often made at an
A 50-year-old man with sudden onset of nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea was on ultrasonography of the upper abdomen found to have an adrenal tumour, 5.5 cm in diameter. This was excised transperitoneally with its connective-tissue pseudocapsule, there being no enlarged regional lymph nodes or other
Spindle cell hemangioma (SCH) is considered a benign vascular lesion. It typically develops as a solitary nodule or multiple masses located in the dermal or subcutaneous layers of the distal extremities. To the best of our knowledge, there are no prior reports of SCH in the BACKGROUND
Various types of benign and malignant splenic tumours including hemangiomas, lymphagiomas, hamartomas, hemangiosarcomas, malignant lymphomas and metastatic carcinomas share radiological characteristics making it impossible for a physician to determine the definite aetiology of splenic
The clinical pharmacology and toxicity of a novel anthracycline derivative, 4'-O-tetrahydropyranyladriamycin (THP-adriamycin), was investigated in patients with advanced malignant diseases. The starting dose was 30 mg/m2 which was escalated by increments of 10 mg/m2. Twelve patients with a median
Pazopanib is an oral angiogenesis inhibitor targeting vascular endothelial growth factor receptors, platelet-derived growth factor receptors, and c-Kit approved for the treatment of renal cell carcinoma and soft tissue sarcoma. Nonselective kinase inhibitors, such as sunitinib and sorafenib, are
METHODS
A 76-year-old woman was admitted with a two-months history of pain in the right upper abdomen and nausea. There was no disease or premedication in her history.
METHODS
Labaratory tests revealed a normocytic anemia, elevated liver enzymes and signs of cholestasis. An MR of the abdomen showed
