Recent development on synthetic biological devices treating bladder cancer
Synthetic biology is an emerging field focusing on engineering genetic devices and biomolecular systems for a variety of applications from basic biology to biotechnology and medicine. Thanks to the tremendous advances in genomics and the chemical synthesis of DNA in the past decade, scientists are now able to engineer genetic devices and circuits for cancer research and intervention, which offe...
متن کاملTreating Bladder Cancer: Neoadjuvant vs Adjuvant Therapy
Occult distant micrometastasis at the time of radical cystectomy leads predominantly to distant failures in patients with locally advanced muscle-invasive transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder. Cisplatin-based combination chemotherapy enhances survival in patients with metastatic urothelial cancer. Studies evaluating adjuvant chemotherapy have been limited by inadequate statistical power. ...
متن کاملRecent developments in chemotherapy for bladder cancer.
Invasive bladder cancer is a chemotherapy-sensitive neoplasm. Historically, the development of cisplatin (Platinol)-based chemotherapy regimens has represented an important advance for patients with metastatic disease. More recently, investigations of new agents, such as gemcitabine (Gemzar) and paclitaxel (Taxol), have resulted in further options for these patients. Randomized trials comparing...
متن کاملRecent Developments in Chemotherapy for Bladder Cancer
Drs. Vaughn and Malkowicz have provided us with a succinct, thorough, evidence-based overview of the current role of chemotherapy in advanced bladder cancer. Their discussion highlights the veritable explosion of new chemotherapy agents with impressive activity in advanced urothelial cancer, the evidence against the routine administration of chemotherapy in the neoadjuvant setting, and in contr...
متن کاملRecent insight into the biological activities of synthetic xanthone derivatives.
Xanthones are a class of oxygen containing heterocyclic compounds with a broad range of biological activities, and they have prominent significance in the field of medicinal chemistry. Xanthone is an attractive scaffold for the design and development of new drugs due to its promising biological activities, primarily as anticancer, antimalarial, antimicrobial, anti-HIV, anticonvulsant, anticholi...
