Few articles have been published on the imaging findings of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-positive non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). To investigate the radiological findings of ALK-positive NSCLC in the advanced stage, CT scans were examined. In addition, the response to chemotherapy was evaluated. Of the 36 patients with ALK-rearranged NSCLC, a mass and a nodule were identified in 17 (47....
Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE AR-SA In recent years, Medical science has been developed remarkably in treatment of malignant diseases. New treatment modalities, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and immunotherapy in patients with different types of neoplasm have cured some cases and increased their life long. On the other hand, considerable comp...
We read with interest the recent report by Rahma et al. [1] on second-line chemotherapy in advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma. The authors carried out a systematic analysis of second-line studies and found that second-line chemotherapy was associated with a survival advantage when compared with best supportive care. They also suggested that a gemcitabine– platinum combination might be superior ...
Innovative therapeutic agents have significantly improved outcome with an acceptable safety profile in a substantial proportion of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, who depend on oncogenic molecular alterations for their malignant phenotype. Despite the survival improvement achieved with first-line chemotherapy, about 30% of patients do not obtain a tumor response. Moreover, those pa...
background: methicillin-resistant (mrsa) staphylococcus aureus ( s. aureus ) are responsible for a vast number of nosocomial infections especially in immunocompromised subjects such as cancer patients. the presence of comorbidities including malignancies has been associated, with s. aureus bacteremia mortality. thus, the detection of mrsa in this patients and the antibiotic susceptibility patte...
The approval of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has changed the treatment landscape in many aspects urothelial cancer (UC), both non-muscle-invasive bladder and muscle-invasive introduced concept long-term remission for some patients metastatic setting. Front-line chemotherapy remains superior at achieving initial control disease compared to front-line therapy. However, durable responses ar...
Paclitaxel has been shown to have clinical activity in the treatment of small cell lung cancer (SCLC). However, its role as third-line chemotherapy for SCLC after both etoposide- and camptothecin-based regimens has not been clarified.All patients with refractory SCLC who were treated with paclitaxel-based regimen as third-line chemotherapy between 2005 and 2011 in Seoul National University Bund...
PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of different first-line chemotherapy durations in patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) on overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). METHODS We searched literature databases to identify randomized controlled trials that compared different chemotherapy durations in the first-line treatment of MBC. Only trials with unconfounded comparisons ...
BACKGROUND Thymic carcinoma is a rare neoplasm of the thymus. Systemic chemotherapy is an important therapeutic modality for thymic carcinoma. However, no standard chemotherapy for this carcinoma has yet been established. The usefulness of second-line or later-line chemotherapy has remained unclear. A case of relapsed thymic carcinoma that was successfully treated by S-1 as second-line chemothe...
BACKGROUND We conducted a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial to determine whether the epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitor erlotinib prolongs survival in non-small-cell lung cancer after the failure of first-line or second-line chemotherapy. METHODS Patients with stage IIIB or IV non-small-cell lung cancer, with performance status from 0 to 3, were eligible if they had r...
