Prolonged treatment with adjuvant valganciclovir has been shown in one retrospective study to exert a significant effect on overall survival (OS) in newly diagnosed patients with glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). However, studies evaluating the effectiveness of valganciclovir in the treatment of recurrent GBM have not been performed. We evaluated the effect of valganciclovir in the recurrent setti...
PURPOSE To safely assess new drugs, cancer patients in initial cohorts of phase I oncology studies receive low drug doses. Doses are successively increased until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. Because traditional chemotherapy is often more effective near the MTD, ethical concerns have been raised about administration of low drug doses to phase I patients. However, a substantial...
Switch maintenance treatment has been found to be an effective strategy in prolonging overall survival. The benefit in progression-free survival and overall survival, reported with pemetrexed in patients with nonsquamous histology and erlotinib in unselected patients as switch maintenance, and their favorable toxicity profile allow them to be used as maintenance treatment after induction ther...
BACKGROUND Cetuximab and bevacizumab reportedly improve the survival of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), but their most effective sequence of administration is unknown. The aim of this study was to compare the survival of patients with mCRC treated with cetuximab after bevacizumab failure with that of patients with mCRC without previous bevacizumab therapy. PATIENTS AND METH...
Uterine sarcoma is a rare tumor of mesodermal origin, accounting for 2-6% of uterine malignancies. Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) has been reported in only 1% of all uterine malignancies and is regarded as the most common primary uterine sarcoma. Herein, we present a case of LMS with unusual macroscopic features. The patient was a 61-year-old woman with LMS, which consisted of a large cystic mass (88×136...
Patients with refractory or relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma who no longer receive benefit from novel agents have limited treatment options and short expected survival. del(17p) and t(4;14) are correlated with shortened survival. The phase 3 MM-003 trial demonstrated significant progression-free and overall survival benefits from treatment with pomalidomide plus low-dose dexamethasone c...
The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) invited the manufacturer of rituximab (RTX) [Roche] to submit evidence for the clinical and cost effectiveness of RTX as first-line maintenance treatment for patients with follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (fNHL) whose disease has responded to induction therapy with RTX plus cytotoxic chemotherapy (R-CTX) in accordance with the In...
Until recently, the weight of evidence has supported the discontinuation of chemotherapy in advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after 4-6 cycles of induction therapy. This allows patients with limited life expectancy a "treatment holiday." A minority of cases then go on to receive second-line therapy, although many deteriorate rapidly and never receive further active treatment. There ha...
BACKGROUND Use of analgesics has been associated with lower risk of ovarian cancer, but, to date, very few studies have explored the association between analgesics and ovarian cancer survival. METHODS We examined the relationship between self-reported prediagnostic use of aspirin, ibuprofen, and acetaminophen and overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), ascites at the time of p...
OBJECTIVE To investigate the overall survival of patients with KRAS wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) after sequentially receiving both bevacizumab and cetuximab during the course of treatment. METHODS Twenty-six mCRC patients who received both bevacizumab and cetuximab at the Sun Yat-sen University Gastrointestinal Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Group A (n = 8) comprised...
