Clinical Implementation of Robust Multi-isocentric Volumetric Modulated Arc Radiotherapy for Craniospinal Irradiation.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE LONDON, 2022-04-01)
AIMS: To determine if multi-isocentric volumetric modulated arc radiotherapy for craniospinal irradiation (CSI-VMAT) can be implemented safely and accurately using robust optimisation in a commercially available treatment ...
Systematic literature review for the association of biomarkers with efficacy of anti-PD-1 inhibitors in advanced melanoma.
(FUTURE MEDICINE LTD, 2021-03-30)
Aim: Summarize the literature assessing biomarkers in predicting efficacy of anti-PD-1 therapy for patients with high-risk unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Materials & methods: Relevant studies were identified via a ...
Bidirectional eukaryotic DNA replication is established by quasi-symmetrical helicase loading.
(AMER ASSOC ADVANCEMENT SCIENCE, 2017-07-21)
Bidirectional replication from eukaryotic DNA replication origins requires the loading of two ring-shaped minichromosome maintenance (MCM) helicases around DNA in opposite orientations. MCM loading is orchestrated by binding ...
Intracellular Metabolomics Identifies Efflux Transporter Inhibitors in a Routine Caco-2 Cell Permeability Assay-Biological Implications.
(MDPI, 2022-10-19)
Caco-2 screens are routinely used in laboratories to measure the permeability of compounds and can identify substrates of efflux transporters. In this study, we hypothesized that efflux transporter inhibition of a compound ...
Development of consensus-driven SPIRIT and CONSORT extensions for early phase dose-finding trials: the DEFINE study.
(BMC, 2023-07-05)
BACKGROUND: Early phase dose-finding (EPDF) trials are crucial for the development of a new intervention and influence whether it should be investigated in further trials. Guidance exists for clinical trial protocols and ...
Molecular Characterization of Circulating Tumor DNA in Pediatric Rhabdomyosarcoma: A Feasibility Study.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2022-10-01)
PURPOSE: Rhabdomyosarcomas (RMS) are rare neoplasms affecting children and young adults. Efforts to improve patient survival have been undermined by a lack of suitable disease markers. Plasma circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) ...
Increase in power by obtaining 10 or more controls per case when type-1 error is small in large-scale association studies.
(BMC, 2023-06-29)
BACKGROUND: The rule of thumb that there is little gain in statistical power by obtaining more than 4 controls per case, is based on type-1 error α = 0.05. However, association studies that evaluate thousands or millions ...
Proton Beam Therapy for Early Breast Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Clinical Outcomes.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2023-11-15)
PURPOSE: Adjuvant proton beam therapy (PBT) is increasingly available to patients with breast cancer. It achieves better planned dose distributions than standard photon radiation therapy and therefore may reduce the risks. ...
Age-related differences of oncological outcomes in primary extremity soft tissue sarcoma: a multistate model including 6260 patients.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2020-12-01)
PURPOSE: No studies extensively compared the young adults (YA, 18-39 years), middle-aged (40-69 years), and elderly (≥70 years) population with primary high-grade extremity soft tissue sarcoma (eSTS). This study aimed to ...
Avelumab Plus Axitinib as First-Line Therapy for Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma: Long-Term Results from the JAVELIN Renal 100 Phase Ib Trial.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2022-12-28)
BACKGROUND: Progression-free survival was significantly longer in patients who received avelumab plus axitinib versus sunitinib as first-line treatment for advanced renal cell carcinoma (aRCC) in a randomized phase III ...
