Neoadjuvant Therapy for Resectable and Borderline Resectable Pancreatic Cancer
The majority of patients with localized pancreatic cancer (PC) who undergo surgery followed by adjuvant therapy will develop metastatic disease, suggesting that surgery alone is not sufficient for cure and micrometastases are present even when are not clinically detected. As such, the delivery of early systemic therapy may be a rational alternative to a surgery-first approach, in an effort to p...
متن کاملPhase II trial of neoadjuvant temozolomide in resectable melanoma patients.
BACKGROUND We treated melanoma patients with temozolomide (TMZ) in the neoadjuvant setting and collected cryopreserved tumor samples before and after treatment. The primary objective was to determine whether the response proportion was higher than previously reported in widely metastatic patients. A secondary objective was to test the feasibility of obtaining adequate tissue before and after tr...
متن کاملNeoadjuvant therapy for resectable pancreatic cancer
The use of neoadjuvant therapies has played a major role for borderline resectable and locally advanced pancreatic cancers (PCs). For this group of patients, preoperative chemotherapy or chemoradiation has increased the likelihood of surgery with negative resection margins and overall survival. On the other hand, for patients with resectable PC, the main rationale for neoadjuvant therapy is tha...
متن کاملNeoadjuvant therapy in resectable pancreatic cancer: a critical review.
BACKGROUND Pancreatic cancer is among the deadliest tumors. Due to intrinsic chemo- and radio-resistance, surgical resection remains the only chance for cure. However surgery alone is unable to considerably improve survival and complementary chemotherapy and radiotherapy in a multimodal approach have been tested. Adjuvant chemotherapy yielded a modest outcome improvement, whereas the use of adj...
متن کاملSystemic Therapy of Non-Resectable Metastatic Melanoma
In advanced metastatic melanoma (non-resectable stage III/IV), the prognosis still remains poor, with median survival times between six and twelve months. Systemic therapeutic approaches for metastatic melanoma include chemotherapy, immunotherapy, immunochemotherapy, small molecules and targeted therapy. In this review, we will focus on the various treatment modalities as well as new agents use...
