"Vertical" Inhibition of HER2 Yields Horizontal Gains in the Clinic.
HER2-targeted therapy has moved beyond trastuzumab to include other monoclonals targeting the cell surface, receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors of HER2, and antibody-drug conjugates. Afatinib, a small molecule receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor, now joins the ranks of HER2-targeting agents in combination with trastuzumab. The combination brings new opportunities and challenges.
متن کاملCondensed Unpredictability
We consider the task of deriving a key with high HILL entropy (i.e., being computationally indistinguishable from a key with high min-entropy) from an unpredictable source. Previous to this work, the only known way to transform unpredictability into a key that was indistinguishable from having min-entropy was via pseudorandomness, for example by Goldreich-Levin (GL) hardcore bits. This approach...
متن کاملPredicting functional gains in a stroke trial.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE A number of therapies in development for patients with central nervous system injury aim to reduce disability by improving function of surviving brain elements rather than by salvaging tissue. The current study tested the hypothesis that, after adjusting for a number of clinical assessments, a measure of brain function at baseline would improve prediction of behavioral ga...
متن کاملSudden gains during therapy of social phobia.
The present study investigated the phenomenon of sudden gains in 107 participants with social phobia (social anxiety disorder) who received either cognitive-behavioral group therapy or exposure group therapy without explicit cognitive interventions, which primarily used public speaking situations as exposure tasks. Twenty-two out of 967 session-to-session intervals met criteria for sudden gains...
متن کاملDiscounting Future Gains and Future Losses: Predictable Differences and Appropriate Measures
This paper extends the common inclination for people to value losses more than gains to the measurement of time preferences. This extension provides testable predictions of a pattern of discount rates that includes use of higher rates to discount the value of future gains than future losses. Two empirical tests, one for differing valuations of future outcomes and the other for varied discount r...
