Target versus non-target lesions in determining disease progression: analysis of 545 patients
نویسندگان
چکیده
Aim RECIST and other methodologies emphasise tracking the diameters of target lesions (TLs) for the determination of progressive disease (PD) in randomised clinical trials. However, RECIST 1.1 also allows for the use of non TL lesions (NTL) to determine PD. We sought to determine whether the final assessment of PD was more likely to be determined by the set of target lesions with PD (TL-PD) or by the set of non-target lesions with PD (NTL-PD).

Background: Chronic graft versus host disease (cGVHD) is a major cutaneous complication of bone marrow transplantation (BMT). Although milder forms of this process may be associated with a lower incidence of tumor recurrences, it is mandatory to develop a more efficient and less harmful therapeutic approach.Methods: This case-series study enrolled 7 patients diagnosed with chronic mucocutaneous...

Objective(s):MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNA molecules that regulate gene expression. They have important roles in kidney development, homeostasis and disease, and participate in the onset and progression of tubulointerstitial sclerosis and end-stage glomerular lesions that occur in various forms of chronic kidney disease (CKD). In the present study, we elucidated the role of microR...
