Comparison of adjuvant gemcitabine and capecitabine with gemcitabine monotherapy in patients with resected pancreatic cancer (ESPAC-4): a multicentre, open-label, randomised, phase 3 trial.
(2017-03)
Background The ESPAC-3 trial showed that adjuvant gemcitabine is the standard of care based on similar survival to and less toxicity than adjuvant 5-fluorouracil/folinic acid in patients with resected pancreatic cancer. ...
Phase II study of copanlisib, a PI3K inhibitor, in relapsed or refractory, indolent or aggressive lymphoma.
(2017-09)
Background Copanlisib is a pan-class I phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor with predominant activity against the α- and δ-isoforms.Patients and methods This phase II study evaluated the response rate of copanlisib ...
Systemic therapy in younger and elderly patients with advanced biliary cancer: sub-analysis of ABC-02 and twelve other prospective trials.
(2017-04-12)
Background Outcomes in younger (<40 years) and elderly (≥70 years) patients with advanced biliary cancer (ABC) receiving palliative chemotherapy are unclear. This study assessed outcomes in those receiving monotherapy or ...
Nivolumab combined with brentuximab vedotin for R/R primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma: a 3-year follow-up.
(American Society of Hematology, 2023-09-26)
Patients with relapsed/refractory primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma (R/R PMBL) have poor responses to salvage therapy. Nivolumab and brentuximab vedotin (BV) showed promising early efficacy in patients with R/R ...
Pathological regression of primary tumour and metastatic lymph nodes following chemotherapy in resectable OG cancer: pooled analysis of two trials.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2023-06-15)
BACKGROUND: No definitive largescale data exist evaluating the role of pathologically defined regression changes within the primary tumour and lymph nodes (LN) of resected oesophagogastric (OG) adenocarcinoma following ...
Immediate surgery compared with short-course neoadjuvant gemcitabine plus capecitabine, FOLFIRINOX, or chemoradiotherapy in patients with borderline resectable pancreatic cancer (ESPAC5): a four-arm, multicentre, randomised, phase 2 trial.
(Elsevier BV, 2023-02-01)
BACKGROUND: Patients with borderline resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma have relatively low resection rates and poor survival despite the use of adjuvant chemotherapy. The aim of our study was to establish the ...
A phase 1/2 study of the combination of acalabrutinib and vistusertib in patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell malignancies.
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2021-07-15)
In a phase 1b study of acalabrutinib (a covalent Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor) in combination with vistusertib (a dual mTORC1/2 inhibitor) in patients with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), ...
Can we predict the progression of premalignant pancreatic cystic tumors to ductal adenocarcinoma?
(FUTURE MEDICINE LTD, 2022-06-22)
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the most prevalent malignant pancreatic tumor. Few studies have shown how often PDACs arise from cystic precursor lesions. This special report aims to summarize the evidence on ...
A Multicenter Phase II Study of AMG 337 in Patients with MET-Amplified Gastric/Gastroesophageal Junction/Esophageal Adenocarcinoma and Other MET-Amplified Solid Tumors.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2019-04-15)
PURPOSE: MET gene amplification is associated with poor prognosis in gastric/gastroesophageal junction/esophageal (G/GEJ/E) cancers. We determined antitumor activity, safety, and pharmacokinetics of the small-molecule MET ...
