Combination of antiangiogenesis with chemotherapy for more effective cancer treatment.
Angiogenesis is a hallmark of tumor development and metastasis and is now a validated target for cancer treatment. However, the survival benefits of antiangiogenic drugs have thus far been rather modest, stimulating interest in developing more effective ways to combine antiangiogenic drugs with established chemotherapies. This review discusses recent progress and emerging challenges in this fie...
متن کاملAnticoagulation in combination with antiangiogenesis and chemotherapy for cancer patients: evidence and hypothesis
Hypercoagulable state and disorganized angiogenesis are two conspicuous characteristics during tumor progression. There are a considerable number of clinical trials focusing on the effects of anticoagulant and antiangiogenic drugs on the survival of cancer patients. Favorable outcomes have been observed. Excessive blood coagulation not only causes cancer-associated thrombosis, which is a common...
متن کاملAntiangiogenesis treatment combined with chemotherapy produces chondrosarcoma necrosis.
A combination therapy protocol using a marine chemotherapeutic and an antiangiogenic molecule was tested in a mouse tumor xenograft model for the ability to curtail the growth of a human chondrosarcoma (CHSA). Ecteinascidin-743 (ET-743), a marine-derived chemotherapeutic, was effective at slowing the growth of a primary CHSA. Plasminogen-related protein B, which antagonizes various endothelial ...
متن کاملElectrospun-nanofibers for Controlled, More Effective Chemotherapy
Electrospinning is the technique in which a high voltage applied across polymer solution enables the production of fibers of thickness in nanofibers, from a few nm to 100s of nm. The polymer solution could be therapeutic for cancer drug delivery, etc. Electro spinning enables to directly engineer Nano fibers that have many advantages as local drug delivery vehicles for therapeutic molecules [1,...
متن کاملTreatment of malignant pheochromocytoma with combination chemotherapy.
Three patients with rapidly progressive, disseminated malignant pheochromocytoma were treated with a combination chemotherapeutic regimen consisting of cyclophosphamide, vincristine, and dacarbazine in repeated 21- to 28-day cycles. All three patients had a marked decrease in blood pressure and an improvement in performance status within the first few cycles of treatment. At a follow-up of 6 to...
