New tools for cancer chemotherapy: computational assistance for tailoring treatments.
Computational models of cancer chemotherapy have the potential to streamline clinical trial design, contribute to the design of rational, tailored treatments, and facilitate our understanding of experimental results. Mechanistic models based on functional data from tumor biopsies will enable physicians to predict response to treatment for a specific patient, in contrast to statistical models in...
متن کاملTargeted therapy: tailoring cancer treatment
Targeted therapies include small-molecule inhibitors and monoclonal antibodies, have made treatment more tumor-specific and less toxic, and have opened new possibilities for tailoring cancer treatment. Nevertheless, there remain several challenges to targeted therapies, including molecular identification, drug resistance, and exploring reliable biomarkers. Here, we present several selected sign...
متن کاملEffect of hydrological changes on algal blooming in the reservoir and the required modification for treatments
The severe incidences of Microcystis blooming in 1980s of the Sagami and Tsukui reservoirs, located in Sagami river, Japan were effectively controlled by the installation of 8 and 5 bubbling circulation systems, respectively. However, the blooming had started again in those reservoirs. It was found that those algal blooming occurred due to the formation of strong stratification following a temp...
متن کاملEstimating Post-Treatment Effect Modification With Generalized Structural Mean Models∗
In randomized controlled trials, the evaluation of an overall treatment effect is often followed by effect modification or subgroup analyses, where the possibility of a different magnitude or direction of effect for varying values of a covariate is explored. While studies of effect modification are typically restricted to pretreatment covariates, longitudinal experimental designs permit the exa...
متن کاملPhysiologic Tailoring of Treatment in Resistant Hypertension
Resistant hypertension is a major opportunity for prevention of cardiovascular disease. Despite widespread dissemination of consensus guidelines, most patients are uncontrolled with approaches that assume that all patients are the same. Causes of resistant hypertension include 1) non-compliance 2) consumption of substances that aggravate hypertension (such as salt, alcohol, nonsteroidal anti-in...
