(AMER SOC CLINICAL ONCOLOGY, 2017-05-10)
Purpose Systemic Therapy for Advanced or Metastatic Prostate Cancer: Evaluation of Drug Efficacy is a randomized controlled trial using a multiarm, multistage, platform design. It recruits men with high-risk, locally ...
Diffusion-weighted (DW) MRI in lung cancers: ADC test-retest repeatability.
(SPRINGER, 2017-11-01)
PURPOSE: To determine the test-retest repeatability of Apparent Diffusion Coefficient (ADC) measurements across institutions and MRI vendors, plus investigate the effect of post-processing methodology on measurement ...
The effect of parotid gland-sparing intensity-modulated radiotherapy on salivary composition, flow rate and xerostomia measures.
(WILEY, 2017-10-01)
OBJECTIVES: To describe parotid gland (PG) saliva organic and inorganic composition and flow rate changes, after curative intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) for head and neck cancer (HNC), and analyse the relationship ...
Randomized Phase II Study Investigating Pazopanib Versus Weekly Paclitaxel in Relapsed or Progressive Urothelial Cancer.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL ONCOLOGY, 2017-06-01)
Purpose Two previous single-arm trials have drawn conflicting conclusions regarding the activity of pazopanib in urothelial cancers after failure of platinum-based chemotherapy. Patients and Methods This randomized (1:1) ...
Mismatch Repair Deficiency, Microsatellite Instability, and Survival: An Exploratory Analysis of the Medical Research Council Adjuvant Gastric Infusional Chemotherapy (MAGIC) Trial.
(AMER MEDICAL ASSOC, 2017-09-01)
IMPORTANCE: Mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency (MMRD) and microsatellite instability (MSI) are prognostic for survival in many cancers and for resistance to fluoropyrimidines in early colon cancer. However, the effect of ...
The predictive and prognostic value of tumour necrosis in muscle invasive bladder cancer patients receiving radiotherapy with or without chemotherapy in the BC2001 trial (CRUK/01/004).
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2017-02-28)
BACKGROUND: Severe chronic hypoxia is associated with tumour necrosis. In patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), necrosis is prognostic for survival following surgery or radiotherapy and predicts benefit from ...
AKT Inhibition in Solid Tumors With AKT1 Mutations.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL ONCOLOGY, 2017-07-10)
Purpose AKT1 E17K mutations are oncogenic and occur in many cancers at a low prevalence. We performed a multihistology basket study of AZD5363, an ATP-competitive pan-AKT kinase inhibitor, to determine the preliminary ...
Subsequent Chemotherapy and Treatment Patterns After Abiraterone Acetate in Patients with Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer: Post Hoc Analysis of COU-AA-302.
(ELSEVIER, 2017-04-01)
BACKGROUND: Treatment patterns for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) have changed substantially in the last few years. In trial COU-AA-302 (chemotherapy-naïve men with mCRPC), abiraterone acetate plus ...
Modeling the prevention of colorectal cancer from the combined impact of host and behavioral risk factors.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-03-01)
PURPOSE: This study investigated the utility of modeling modifiable lifestyle risk factors in addition to genetic variation in colorectal cancer (CRC) screening/prevention. METHODS: We derived a polygenic risk score for ...
Risk of Second Cancer in Hodgkin Lymphoma Survivors and Influence of Family History.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL ONCOLOGY, 2017-05-10)
Purpose Although advances in Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) treatment have led to improved disease-free survival, this has been accompanied by an increased risk of second cancers. We sought to quantify the second cancer risks and ...
