The ABC02 treatment regime was established in 2010 following publication in the New England Journal of Medicine and has since become the standard of care treatment of bile duct cancers otherwise known as cholangiocarcinomas, as well as gallbladder cancer. The treatment consists of gemcitabine and
Bipolar Disorder is a chronic disabling psychiatric disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of mania or hypomania and depression. Bipolar Disorder can be separated into bipolar I and bipolar II disorders with bipolar I disorder characterizing individuals who have episodes of mania and
AM-001 is the first clinical study to be conducted within the infrastructure of ABNL MARRO in conjunction with the MDS/MPN IWG. AM-001 will include three treatment Arms. Each Arm tests ASTX727 in combination with a novel targeted agent. Additional Arms may be added as new treatment
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the safety and tolerability of intratumoral cytidine-phospho-guanosine oligodeoxynucleotide (CpG) in combination with nivolumab and radiotherapy (RT) in chemotherapy-refractory metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse
AML is a heterogeneous disease characterized by uncontrolled clonal expansion of hematopoietic progenitor cells. As the most common form of acute leukemia, AML accounts for the largest number of annual deaths from leukemia. Over 95 percent (%) of AML blasts harvested from newly diagnosed AML
Overexpression of activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) or other cytidine deaminases causes high rates of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage (mutations, double strand DNA breaks, and chromosome rearrangements) in a high number of patients with B-cell malignancies, such as NHL, MM, and CLL, and
Allogeneic stem cell transplant (HSCT) is the only curative treatment in patients with intermediate-2 and high risk patients (according to classical IPSS) but approximately 30% of patients relapse and 30% of patients die from non-relapse complications after HSCT. Risk factors for post-transplant

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the second leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide (Jemel et al CA Cancer J Clin 2011). Asian and Pacific Islander (API) Americans are perennially the most affected racial group with regard to HCC incidence and HCC-related mortality due to the
Background:
- Non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) and esophageal carcinomas (EsC) account for approximately 180,000 deaths annually in the United States, with over two thirds of patients presenting with advanced, incurable disease. 1st-line platinum-based chemotherapy for advanced NSCLC or EsC
Background
- Loss of activity of the Krebs cycle components succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) complex or fumarate hydratase (FH), has been identified as a mechanism of tumorigenesis in subsets of gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST), pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PHEO/PGL), and renal cell
The active metabolite of SGI-110 (2'-deoxy-5-azacytidylyl-(3'→5')-2'-deoxyguanosine sodium salt), a dinucleotide, is decitabine, an FDA-approved agent for the treatment of myelodysplastic syndromes. SGI-110 is resistant to modification by cytidine deaminase, a common pathway of decitabine metabolism
Chronic hepatitis B is a long term condition caused by infection of the body with the hepatitis B virus (HBV). This infection often results in inflammation or scarring of the liver and can eventually lead to liver cirrhosis and liver failure. These infections are also one of the major causes of the
Preclinical studies have demonstrated that nab-paclitaxel may play a role in sensitizing the tumor to chemotherapeutic agents and specifically increases the antitumor efficacy when combined with gemcitabine. While the mechanism of action for the synergy is unclear, preclinical studies have generated
