The demonstration of the activity of capecitabine (Xeloda) in advanced breast cancer and of the ability of capecitabine/docetaxel (Taxotere) to improve tumor response, time to disease progression, and survival in this setting has prompted considerable interest in examining uses of capecitabine in adjuvant and neoadjuvant therapy. Trials are planned to compare capecitabine/docetaxel with docetax...
Male breast cancer is an extremely rare malignancy. We treated three male breast cancer patients. All three patients showed clinical N0 and received sentinel lymph node biopsy. Because the sentinel lymph node was positive for metastasis in one patient, a total mastectomy with axillary lymph node dissection was performed. The other two patients were negative for sentinel lymph node metastasis, a...
The taxanes docetaxel (Taxotere; Aventis Pharmaceuticals Inc., Bridgewater, NJ, http://www.aventispharma-us.com) and paclitaxel (Taxol; Bristol-Myers Squibb, Princeton, NJ, http://www.bms.com) have significant clinical activity in metastatic breast cancer. A number of clinical trials have evaluated the tolerability and efficacy of weekly taxane administration to optimize the benefit-to-risk rat...
In recent years, the clinical application of paclitaxel (Taxol), docetaxel (Taxotere), vinorelbine (Navelbine), and trastuzumab (Herceptin) has improved the management of advanced breast cancer. With the introduction of gemcitabine, a new drug with significant activity in breast cancer has become available. As a single agent, gemcitabine (Gemzar) provides response rates in the range of 25% to 4...
Metastatic gastric cancer is a relatively chemosensitive disease. With current regimens, 25% to 40% of patients can be expected to respond, and median survival of 6 to 8 months is achievable. These outcomes may be improved by the use of infusional fluorouracil (5-FU) in combination with cisplatin (Platinol) or the newer agents docetaxel (Taxotere) and irinotecan (Camptosar). Phase II studies us...
Tumor progenitor cells represent a population of drug-resistant cells that can survive conventional chemotherapy and lead to tumor relapse. However, little is known of the role of tumor progenitors in prostate cancer metastasis. The studies reported herein show that the CXCR4/CXCL12 axis, a key regulator of tumor dissemination, plays a role in the maintenance of prostate cancer stem-like cells....
Despite the low efficacy of conventional antitumour drugs, chemotherapy remains an essential tool in controlling advanced gastric and oesophageal cancers. We aimed to provide a biological rationale based on the sorafenib-taxotere interaction for the clinical treatment of gastric cancer. In vitro experiments were performed on four human gastric cancer cell lines (GK2, AKG, KKP and NCI-N87). Cyto...
Low-dose radiation hypersensitivity (HRS) describes a phenomenon of excessive sensitivity to X ray doses <0.5 Gy. Docetaxel is a taxane shown to arrest cells in the G(2)/M phase of the cell cycle. Some previous studies suggested that HRS might result from the abrogation of the early G(2) checkpoint arrest. First we tested whether HRS occurs in gastric cancer-derived cells, and whether pre-treat...
Ultrasound stimulated microbubbles (USMB) are being investigated for their potential to promote the uptake of anticancer agents into tumor tissue by exploiting their ability to enhance microvascular permeability. At sufficiently high ultrasound transmit amplitudes it has also recently been shown that USMB treatments can, on their own, induce vascular damage, shutdown blood flow, and inhibit tum...
Triple-negative breast cancers (TNBCs) are the most aggressive and hard-to-treat breast tumors with poor prognosis, and exploration for novel therapeutic drugs is impending. Arctigenin (Atn), a bioactive lignan isolated from seeds of Arctium lappa L, has been reported to inhibit many cancer types; however, the effect of Atn on TNBC remains unclear. In this study, we demonstrated that Atn decrea...
