The Emerging Role of Local Therapy in Metastatic Prostate Cancer.
(2020-01-20)
PURPOSE OF REVIEW:This review summarizes the prospective clinical evidence regarding local therapy in metastatic prostate cancer. RECENT FINDINGS:The phase 3 STAMPEDE trial showed that prostate radiotherapy confers a ...
The patient perspective in the era of personalized medicine: What about scanxiety?
Frequency of scanning has accelerated in the era of personalized medicine and is related, but not restricted, to the exploding number of clinical trials for new cancer treatments. Particularly in drug trials, but also in ...
Multiparametric MRI to improve detection of prostate cancer compared with transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy alone: the PROMIS study.
(2018-07)
Background Men with suspected prostate cancer usually undergo transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided prostate biopsy. TRUS-guided biopsy can cause side effects and has relatively poor diagnostic accuracy. Multiparametric ...
Parallel transmit pulse design for saturation homogeneity (PUSH) for magnetization transfer imaging at 7T.
<h4>Purpose</h4>This work proposes a novel RF pulse design for parallel transmit (pTx) systems to obtain uniform saturation of semisolid magnetization for magnetization transfer (MT) contrast in the presence of transmit ...
Functional versus non-functional intratumor heterogeneity in cancer.
(2016-07)
Next-generation sequencing data from human cancers are often difficult to interpret within the context of tumor evolution. We developed a mathematical model describing the accumulation of mutations under neutral evolutionary ...
Targeted Alpha Therapy, an Emerging Class of Cancer Agents: A Review.
(2018-12)
Importance Targeted alpha therapy attempts to deliver systemic radiation selectively to cancer cells while minimizing systemic toxic effects and may lead to additional treatment options for many cancer types.Observations ...
Adjuvant bevacizumab for melanoma patients at high risk of recurrence: survival analysis of the AVAST-M trial.
(2018-08)
Background Bevacizumab is a recombinant humanised monoclonal antibody to vascular endothelial growth factor shown to improve survival in advanced solid cancers. We evaluated the role of adjuvant bevacizumab in melanoma ...
Protein and drug interactions in the minor groove of DNA
(2002-03-01)
Interactions between proteins, drugs, water and B-DNA minor groove have been analyzed in crystal structures of 60 protein-DNA and 14 drug-DNA complexes. It was found that only purine N3, pyrimidine O2, guanine N2 and ...
