Time‐Dependent Bias of Tumor Growth Rate and Time to Tumor Regrowth
In a recent study by Han et al. the authors highlight that a tumor growth inhibition metric termed time-to-tumor-growth (TTG) derived from imaging time-series data is a strong predictor of survival. The authors demonstrate the strength of TTG’s correlation to survival using Kaplan-Meier curves in Figure 2 of their article. Indeed, the relationship seems incredibly strong, maybe too good to be t...
متن کاملEffects of anti-VEGF treatment duration on tumor growth, tumor regrowth, and treatment efficacy.
PURPOSE Inhibition of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) axis is the basis of all currently approved antiangiogenic therapies. In preclinical models, anti-VEGF blocking antibodies have shown broad efficacy that is dependent on both tumor context and treatment duration. We aimed to characterize this activity and to evaluate the effects of discontinuation of treatment on the dynamics o...
متن کاملSpecific growth rate versus doubling time for quantitative characterization of tumor growth rate.
Doubling time (DT) is widely used for quantification of tumor growth rate. DT is usually determined from two volume estimations with measurement time intervals comparable with or shorter than DT. Clinical data show that the frequency distribution of DT in patients is positively skewed, with some very long DT values compared with the average DT. Growth rate can also be quantified using specific ...

متن کاملBlockade of Hypoxia: The Impact on Tumor Growth in an Experimental Tumor Model
Background: Tumor microenvironment is an active factor participating in immunoregulation, thereby preventing immunosurveillance and limiting the efficacy of anticancer therapies. Hypoxia as a major characteristic of solid tumors causes the expression of Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-1α (HIF-1α). This is a transcription factor that mediates hypoxic responses of tumor cells and involves in the express...
