Imaging and Therapy of Pancreatic Cancer with Phosphatidylserine-Targeted Nanovesicles1
Pancreatic cancer remains one of the most intractable cancers, with a dismal prognosis reflected by a 5-year survival of ~6%. Since early disease symptoms are undefined and specific biomarkers are lacking, about 80% of patients present with advanced, inoperable tumors that represent a daunting challenge. Despite many clinical trials, no single chemotherapy agent has been reliably associated wit...
متن کاملComparison of Radiobiological Models for Radiation Therapy Plans of Prostate Cancer: Three-dimensional Conformal versus Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy
Purpose: In the current study, using different radiobiological models, tumor control probability (TCP) and normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) of radiotherapy plans were calculated for three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3D-CRT) and intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) of prostate cancer.Methods and Materials: 10 prostate plans were randomly selected among patients ...

Cancer is one of the most dangerous health problems of today modern societies which has an increasing rate especially in developing countries. There are many diverse ongoing treatment attempts trying to defeat cancer. Despite that, scientists have been unable to find a permanent cure for this disease. In many cases although there is a successful first response in patients, cancer cells are fina...
متن کاملMolecular targeted therapy for advanced gastric cancer
Although medical treatment has been shown to improve quality of life and prolong survival, no significant progress has been made in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer (AGC) within the last two decades. Thus, the optimum standard first-line chemotherapy regimen for AGC remains debatable, and most responses to chemotherapy are partial and of short duration; the median survival is approximat...
متن کاملScience Lung Cancer Diagnostic Imaging for Advanced Radiation Therapy of Lung Cancer Lung Cancer Staging
Diagnostic radiology of the chest and radiation therapy of lung tumors are both subject to rapid development. Close and efficient cooperation of engineers, scientists, and clinical personnel is necessary to integrate these into daily patient care. The German Cancer Research Center and Siemens Medical Solutions aim to turn this vision into reality. In the field of radiology, multislice computed ...
