Immunohistochemical staining for glutathione S-transferase predicts response to platinum-based chemotherapy in head and neck cancer.
The glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) play an important role in the cell's defense against toxic substances. The GSTs are a family of enzymes produced by several genes that interact with distinct but overlapping substrates and that may play a role in resistance of tumor cells to several chemotherapeutic agents. We examined the correlation between expression of GSTs determined by immunohistochem...
متن کاملEarly prediction of response to chemotherapy in metastatic breast cancer using sequential 18F-FDG PET.
UNLABELLED Chemotherapy is currently the treatment of choice for patients with high-risk metastatic breast cancer. Clinical response is determined after several cycles of chemotherapy by changes in tumor size as assessed by conventional imaging procedures including CT, MRI, plain film radiography, or ultrasound. The aim of this study was to evaluate the use of sequential 18F-FDG PET to predict ...
متن کاملPrediction of Early Response to Chemotherapy in Lung Cancer by Using Diffusion-Weighted MR Imaging
PURPOSE To determine whether change of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value could predict early response to chemotherapy in lung cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-five patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer underwent chest MR imaging including DWI before and at the end of the first cycle of chemotherapy. The tumor's mean ADC value and diameters on MR images were calculated...
متن کاملEarly Prediction of Response to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Locally Advanced Breast Cancer Using Mri
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is the favored treatment of choice among locally advanced breast cancer patients because it significantly increases the possibility of breast-conserving surgery. However, for non-responders, an early prediction of response to NAC is essential. The purpose of this study was to determine whether an early prediction of response to NAC is possible using MRI. Eleven br...
متن کاملPrediction of clinical response to drugs in ovarian cancer using the chemotherapy resistance test (CTR-test)
BACKGROUND In order to validate if the test result of the Chemotherapy Resistance Test (CTR-Test) is able to predict the resistances or sensitivities of tumors in ovarian cancer patients to drugs, the CTR-Test result and the corresponding clinical response of individual patients were correlated retrospectively. Results were compared to previous recorded correlations. METHODS The CTR-Test was ...
