Response Assessment Criteria for Glioblastoma: Practical Adaptation and Implementation in Clinical Trials of Antiangiogenic Therapy
Since 1990, the primary criteria used for assessing response to therapy in high-grade gliomas were those developed by Macdonald and colleagues, which incorporated 2-dimensional area measurements of contrast-enhancing tumor regions, corticosteroid dosing, and clinical assessment to arrive at a designation of response, stable disease, or progression. Recent advances in imaging technology and targ...
متن کاملAnti-Vascular endothelial growth factor treatment augments tumor radiation response under normoxic or hypoxic conditions.
Recent studies in experimental animals have shown that combining antiangiogenic therapy with radiation can enhance tumor response. Whether this enhancement is mainly attributable to angiogenesis inhibition, endothelial cell radiosensitivity, tumor cell apoptosis, or a decrease in the number of hypoxic cells (improved oxygenation) is not known. We designed this study to discern the role of tumor...
متن کاملClinical implications of antiangiogenic therapies.
The improved survival associated with adding the anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) monoclonal antibody bevacizumab (Avastin) to chemotherapy for the treatment of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer demonstrates the importance of targeting collateral cells involved in tumor growth, progression, and metastatic spread. Based on the Gompertzian model of tumor growth, adding anti...
متن کاملGenetic variability in response to clopidogrel therapy: clinical implications.
In the past few years, it has been realized that cardiovascular events under dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) might be associated with a poor response to clopidogrel. Based on different platelet function assays, 20–25% of clopidogrel-treated patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary stenting have been defined as poor responders and were prone to an increased risk...
متن کاملHypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction: clinical implications.
Fetal origin of HPV HPV originates in the fetus [3]. Vasomotor tone can be detected in the human fetal pulmonary circulation in the last trimester of pregnancy [4]. HPV contributes significantly to the high pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) in the fetus (only 10–15% of right ventricular outflow goes to the lungs) [5], mainly because pulmonary artery and alveolar fluid oxygen tension (PO2) lev...
