Outcomes for transformed follicular lymphoma in the rituximab era: the Royal Marsden experience 2003-2013.
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2017-08-01)
Survival for transformed follicular lymphoma (tFL) has improved in the rituximab era and the need for upfront stem cell transplantation (SCT) is unclear. We evaluated the outcomes for all patients treated with first-line ...
Phase I/II trials of 186Re-HEDP in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer: post-hoc analysis of the impact of administered activity and dosimetry on survival.
(SPRINGER, 2017-04-01)
PURPOSE: To investigate the role of patient-specific dosimetry as a predictive marker of survival and as a potential tool for individualised molecular radiotherapy treatment planning of bone metastases from castration-resistant ...
Nivolumab for Recurrent Squamous-Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck.
(MASSACHUSETTS MEDICAL SOC, 2016-11-10)
BACKGROUND: Patients with recurrent or metastatic squamous-cell carcinoma of the head and neck after platinum chemotherapy have a very poor prognosis and limited therapeutic options. Nivolumab, an anti-programmed death 1 ...
A phase-I trial of pre-operative, margin intensive, stereotactic body radiation therapy for pancreatic cancer: the 'SPARC' trial protocol.
(BIOMED CENTRAL LTD, 2016-09-13)
BACKGROUND: Standard therapy for borderline-resectable pancreatic cancer in the UK is surgery with adjuvant chemotherapy, but rates of resection with clear margins are unsatisfactory and overall survival remains poor. ...
A multiple myeloma classification system that associates normal B-cell subset phenotypes with prognosis.
(ELSEVIER, 2018-09-25)
Despite the recent progress in treatment of multiple myeloma (MM), it is still an incurable malignant disease, and we are therefore in need of new risk stratification tools that can help us to understand the disease and ...

(MASSACHUSETTS MEDICAL SOC, 2018-11-15)
BACKGROUND: The cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor palbociclib, in combination with fulvestrant therapy, prolongs progression-free survival among patients with hormone-receptor-positive, human epidermal ...
Nivolumab vs investigator's choice in recurrent or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck: 2-year long-term survival update of CheckMate 141 with analyses by tumor PD-L1 expression.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2018-06-01)
OBJECTIVES: We report 2-year results from CheckMate 141 to establish the long-term efficacy and safety profile of nivolumab and outcomes by tumor PD-L1 expression in patients with recurrent or metastatic (R/M),platinum-refractory ...

(CELL PRESS, 2016-01-01)
Oncolytic reovirus can be delivered both systemically and intratumorally, in both preclinical models and in early phase clinical trials. Reovirus has direct oncolytic activity against a variety of tumor types and antitumor ...
Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer Patients Treated With Daily Oral Corticosteroids.
(CIG MEDIA GROUP, LP, 2017-12-01)
BACKGROUND: The neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been shown to be highly prognostic across many tumor types, and predictive of treatment outcome in advanced prostate cancer, and has been postulated to be an indirect ...
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 ...
