Value of innovation in hematologic malignancies: a systematic review of published cost-effectiveness analyses.
We analyzed cost-effectiveness studies related to hematologic malignancies from the Tufts Medical Center Cost-Effectiveness Analysis Registry (www.cearegistry.org), focusing on studies of innovative therapies. Studies that met inclusion criteria were categorized by 4 cancer types (chronic myeloid leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and multiple myeloma) and 9 treatment...

متن کاملCancer vaccines for hematologic malignancies.
BACKGROUND Improvements in the identification of tumor-associated antigens and in our understanding of the mechanisms regulating antitumor immune responses have revived interest in the use of therapeutic cancer vaccination. Due to their unique characteristics, hematologic malignancies represent an ideal target for vaccine-based therapeutic interventions. METHODS A review of published vaccine ...
متن کاملImmunotherapeutic approaches for hematologic malignancies.
The immune system has two complementary arms: one is older and seemingly more primitive, called the innate immune system, found in both plants and animals. The second (already many millions of years old!) is the adaptive or antigen-specific immune system, limited to vertebrate animals. The human innate immune system has many cellular elements that include granulocytes, monocytes, macrophages, n...
متن کاملTargeted therapy for hematologic malignancies.
BACKGROUND The introduction of monoclonal antibodies, either as native molecules or conjugated to radioisotopes or other toxins, has led to new therapeutic options for patients with hematologic malignancies. In addition, the use of small molecules against specific cell surface receptors, enzymes, and proteins has become an important strategy in the treatment of such disorders. METHODS The aut...
