Molecular Imaging in Oncology and Immuno-Oncology
نویسندگان
چکیده
Molecular imaging is commonly used to improve the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. Nuclear medicine offers cutting-edge procedures instruments, computers radiopharmaceuticals for various diseases, including oncology indications. The detailed images provided by positron emission tomography (PET) can accurately image biochemical or physiologic/pathologic phenomena.

Molecular imaging in oncology.
In vivomedical imaging is performed by administering energy to the body and measuring, with spatial localisation, the energy that is transmitted through, emitted from or reflected back from various organs and tissues. The difference between the administered and the recorded energy provides information about the properties of the matter with which the energy interacted. The energy most commonly ...
متن کاملThe immuno-oncology framework
Developers of cancer immunotherapy have struggled for decades to achieve clinical success in using the patient's immune system to treat cancer. In the absence of a defined development paradigm for immunotherapies, conventional criteria established for chemotherapy were applied to these agents. This article summarizes the recent lessons for development of agents in the immunotherapy space, descr...
متن کاملMevalonate Metabolism in Immuno-Oncology
Immuno-oncology not only refers to the multifaceted relationship between our immune system and a developing cancer but also includes therapeutic approaches that harness the body's immune system to fight cancer. The recognition that metabolic reprogramming governs immunity was a key finding with important implications for immuno-oncology. In this review, we want to explore how activation and dif...
متن کاملStatistical issues and challenges in immuno-oncology
BACKGROUND The development of immuno-oncologic agents poses unique challenges, namely that both efficacy and safety profiles differ from previously characterized cytotoxic and pathway-specific agents. In addition, exponential distribution is usually assumed in study designs with time-to-event endpoints such as overall survival or progression-free survival. This assumption might lead to wrong es...
متن کاملPotential impact of molecular imaging in oncology.
Despite all progress in molecular imaging methods, the actual number of validated new markers is still limited. The breakthrough of individual efforts is often hampered by lack of critical mass of resources. To overcome these shortcomings a "network" of multidisciplinary experts is indispensable. Focusing on cancer therapy, molecular imaging has a high potential impact in (a) early therapy moni...
