Characterising the tumour morphological response to therapeutic intervention: an ex vivo model
In cancer, morphological assessment of histological tissue samples is a fundamental part of both diagnosis and prognosis. Image analysis offers opportunities to support that assessment through quantitative metrics of morphology. Generally, morphometric analysis is carried out on two-dimensional tissue section data and so only represents a small fraction of any tumour. We present a novel applica...
متن کاملP18. The tumour leukocyte infiltrate is the key predictor for therapeutic response to catumaxomab therapy
Patients and methods Fresh tumour samples from 27 CRC patients were used to prepare tumour spheroids. Autologous PBMCs were isolated by ficoll density gradient. Tumour spheroids co-cultured with or without PBMCs were treated with catumaxomab for 96h. The cellular composition of the spheroids and the therapeutic impact on epithelial cells and leukocytes were measured by FACS analysis. The metabo...
متن کاملThe use of thermographic imaging to evaluate therapeutic response in human tumour xenograft models
Non-invasive methods to monitor tumour growth are an important goal in cancer drug development. Thermographic imaging systems offer potential in this area, since a change in temperature is known to be induced due to changes within the tumour microenvironment. This study demonstrates that this imaging modality can be applied to a broad range of tumour xenografts and also, for the first time, the...
متن کاملEvaluation of the therapeutic response to phototherapy at different body sites in chronic plaque-type psoriasis
Background and aim: Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory dermatosis that affects 0.6% to 4.8% of the population. Phototherapy is commonly used in the treatment of this disease. According to the results of previous studies that showed difference in minimal erythema dose between different body sites, it seems that the responses of psoriatic lesions are also different in various body sites. O...
متن کاملFactors influencing therapeutic response to peginterferron plus ribavirin in the different genotypes of chronic hepatitis C
Abstract Background: Different factors like age, sex, route of infection, initial viral load, levels of liver function tests and genotypes may affect response to treatment in patients with chronic hepatitis C. The purpose of this study was to determine the role of these factors in the treatment of these patients. Methods: From 2004 to 2012, different genotypes of chronic HCV (Hepatitis C ...
