Second Cancers in Patients with Neuroendocrine Tumors
BACKGROUND Second cancers have been reported to occur in 10-20% of patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). However, most published studies used data from a single institution or focused only on specific sites of NETs. In addition, most of these studies included second cancers diagnosed concurrently with NETs, making it difficult to assess the temporality and determine the exact incidence of...
متن کاملPrediction of Primary Tumors in Cancers of Unknown Primary.
A cancer of unknown primary (CUP) is a metastatic cancer for which standard diagnostic tests fail to identify the location of the primary tumor. CUPs account for 3-5% of cancer cases. Using molecular data to determine the location of the primary tumor in such cases can help doctors make the right treatment choice and thus improve the clinical outcome. In this paper, we present a new method for ...
متن کاملImmune profiling of tumors may better stage early cancers.
When immune cells infiltrate tumors in large numbers, patients do better. Now researchers aim to harness this immune response to predict outcomes. The Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) in Milwaukee is coordinating an international effort to validate Immunoscore, an assay that quantifies this immune response. If added to the current tumor–node–metastasis (TNM) cancer staging system, it ...
متن کاملRethinking brain tumors: the fourth Mouse Models of Human Cancers Consortium nervous system tumors workshop.
Despite increased understanding of molecular changes in brain tumorigenesis and successful establishment of mouse brain tumor models, the prognosis for brain cancer has improved only slightly over the past several decades. In November 2007, members of the brain tumor mouse models community convened to discuss how to effectively leverage mouse models to better understand brain tumorigenesis and ...
