Between 1978 and 1983, 72 patients aged 70 years or older (median 72, range 70-80) were treated for biopsy-proven, small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Intercurrent disorders were common, including ischaemic heart disease, peripheral vascular disease, chronic airflow limitation and second malignancies. 26

Gestational trophoblastic neoplasms (GTN) are highly curable tumors, with an overall patient survival of 90%, due to the individualized chemotherapy. However, chemotherapy regimens vary between different treatment centers and the comparable benefits and risks of these different regimens are unclear.

BACKGROUND To ensure the quality of patient care, the bioavailability of drugs, and the success of the treatment, it is imperative that nurses evaluate the adherence of patients to pharmaceutical treatments using standard measurement tools that are integrated into the treatment process. No scale

There is increasing attention directed to the hypothesis that apoptosis plays a role in the response to cancer treatment including chemotherapy. However, the evidence to support this hypothesis has come almost entirely from experiments conducted in cultured cell systems. To extend this hypothesis to

Our goal was to determine whether scintigraphy with 111In-DTPA-paclitaxel could predict the response to chemotherapy with paclitaxel. METHODS Ovarian carcinoma (OCA 1), mammary carcinoma (MCA-4), fibrosarcoma (FSA) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC VII) were inoculated into the thighs of female

OBJECTIVE Recently we reported that inhibition of cyclin-dependent kinases (cdks) by flavopiridol enhanced the radiation response of murine ovarian carcinoma cells in culture. The purpose of this investigation was to extend these studies to in vivo tumor models and test whether flavopiridol

Whereas there have been several recent reports of the induction of apoptosis by chemotherapy agents in cell culture systems, much less is known about the role of this mode of cell death in tumors treated in vivo. We therefore quantitated the proportion of apoptotic cells induced as a function of

The objective was to identify the best-validated scale for assessing oral pharmacological adherence in oncology patients. A bibliographic search was performed in MEDLINE via Ovid, EMBASE, CENTRAL and LILACS. We included all studies in which a validation of adherence scales to oral pharmacological

Due to the ability of ovarian cancer (OCa) to acquire drug resistance, it has been difficult to develop efficient and safe chemotherapy for OCa. Here, we examined the therapeutic use of a new self-assembled core-shell nanoscale coordination polymer nanoparticle (NCP-Carbo/GMP) that delivers high

The poly(L-glutamic acid)-paclitaxel (PG-TXL) conjugate has been shown to exhibit significantly greater antitumor activity than conventionally formulated paclitaxel (TXL) against solid tumors (Li et al., Cancer Res., 58: 2404-2409, 1998). Here we report that local tumor irradiation enhanced the

OBJECTIVE Necrosis is the most common morphologic alteration found in tumors and surrounding normal tissues after radiation therapy or chemotherapy. Accurate measurement of necrosis may provide an early indication of treatment efficacy or associated toxicity. The purpose of this report is to

Emerging methods of anti-tumor therapies require new approaches to tumor response evaluation, especially enabling label-free diagnostics and in vivo utilization. Here, to assess the tumor early reaction and predict its long-term response, for the first time we apply in combination the

Many tissue kallikrein (KLK) genes and proteins are candidate diagnostic, prognostic and predictive biomarkers for ovarian cancer (OCa). We previously demonstrated that the KLK locus (19q13.3/4) is subject to copy-number gains and structural rearrangements in a pilot study of cell lines and ovarian

On the basis of an organoid culture method which allows organoid reorganization and histotypical growth of human carcinomas under in vitro conditions, we propose in the present study an organoid culture assay (OCA) as "antioncogram", i.e., as in vitro model for testing the drug sensitivity and
