Translational research in melanoma.
Current treatment of malignant melanoma exemplifies not only the need for translational research but also many of the challenges of moving from bench to bedside. Melanoma remains unique among solid tumors in that its treatment primarily is surgical. Radiation is of limited benefit, and chemotherapy has been disappointing in both the adjuvant and metastatic settings. This leaves clinicians with ...
متن کاملTargeted therapies in melanoma: Translational research at its finest
The therapeutic landscape for advanced melanoma has expanded in recent years. This expansion has largely been driven by investigational work in melanoma tumor biology and immunology that has been successfully translated to the clinical setting. Molecular evidence generated through benchside experimentation identified BRAF and MEK as key molecular targets in melanoma. This commentary will highli...
متن کاملTranslational research in retinology
Clinical laboratories are strong, integral partners in personalized health care. Laboratory databases hold a vast amount of data on human phenotypes, genotypes, biomarkers, progression of disease, and response to therapy. These structured and unstructured free text data are critical for patient care and a resource for personalized medicine and translational research. Laboratory data are integra...
متن کاملTranslational Research in Endocrinology
The term “translational research” first appeared on Pubmed in 1993 in a review by authors from the NIH calling for investigation of biomarkers for the early detection of cancer [1]. Since that publication, over 7,000 manuscripts on Pubmed use the search term “translational research.” Traditionally, translational research has been used to describe research discoveries initiated at the bench and ...
متن کاملTranslational Antidote Research: A Bedside to Bench Tale
Although antidote development should proceed in an orderly fashion from observation, to experimental and safety studies, to clinical trials, this sequence is not always precisely followed. The development of fomepizole as an antidote for toxic alcohol and glycol poisoning is an example of how this may not be the case. Interest in the development of fomepizole was spurred in the 1960s. Shortly t...
