Histoculture drug response assay for gefitinib in non-small-cell lung cancer.
OBJECTIVE There are many predictive factors for gefitinib sensitivity, including epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene mutation, EGFR copy number, and k-ras mutation. To investigate all of them is too expensive. We evaluated the chemosensitivity for gefitinib in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) using a histoculture drug response assay (HDRA). METHODS Surgically resected fresh tumor s...
متن کاملClinical applications of the histoculture drug response assay.
There is a need for a clinically useful drug-response assay for cancer patients to individualize their chemotherapy. Collagen sponge-gel-supported histoculture has been shown to maintain tissue architecture and function in vitro and has been utilized to develop the histoculture drug-response assay (HDRA) for individualizing chemotherapy. In order to evaluate the HDRA with the 3-(4, 5-dimethylth...
متن کاملPotential of the histoculture drug-response assay to contribute to cancer patient survival.
The histoculture drug-response assay (HDRA) was recently evaluated in a retrospective clinical trial and was found to correlate to drug sensitivity, resistance, and patient survival. To further investigate the potential of HDRA to contribute to patient survival, 215 patients with gastric cancer from 45 medical centers were tested with the HDRA in a blinded study after resection of the primary l...
متن کاملHistoculture drug response assay predicts the postoperative prognosis of patients with esophageal cancer.
Predicting response to chemotherapy would provide patients suffering from malignant tumor with not only more favorable outcomes, but also reduction of adverse events, and would enable chemotherapy tailored to individual patients. The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the utility of histoculture drug response assay (HDRA) with the MTT endpoint. Subjects comprised 53 consecutive...
متن کاملChemosensitivity of Anaplastic Thyroid Cancer Based on a Histoculture Drug Response Assay
The chemosensitivity of anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) to some cytotoxic agents was investigated by the histoculture drug response assay (HDRA). Thirty specimens from 22 patients with ATC were obtained from surgically resected subjects. The drugs tested were paclitaxel (PTX), docetaxel (DOC), adriamycin (ADM), nedaplatin (254-S), cisplatin (CDDP), carboplatin (CBDCA), etoposide (VP-16), 5-fluo...
