Early recurrence of pancreatic cancer after resection and during adjuvant chemotherapy
Background/Aim: Adjuvant chemotherapy for 6 months is the current standard of care after potentially curative resection of pancreatic cancer and yields an overall survival of 15-20 months. Early tumor recurrence before or during adjuvant chemotherapy has

Deep learning-based prediction of response to HER2-targeted neoadjuvant chemotherapy from pre-treatment dynamic breast MRI: A multi-institutional validation study [PDF]
Predicting response to neoadjuvant therapy is a vexing challenge in breast cancer. In this study, we evaluate the ability of deep learning to predict response to HER2-targeted neo-adjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) from pre-treatment dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI acquired prior to treatment.

A Decision Making Approach for Chemotherapy Planning based on Evolutionary Processing [PDF]
The problem of chemotherapy treatment optimization can be defined in order to minimize the size of the tumor without endangering the patient's health; therefore, chemotherapy requires to achieve a number of objectives, simultaneously. For this reason, the optimization problem turns to a multi-objective problem.

Prospects of using Antagonist Histamine H2-Receptor (Cimetidinum) as Adjuvant for Melanoma Biotherapy Treatment [PDF]
Improvement of anti-tumor biotherapy effectiveness by modification of immune response with histamine H2 receptor Cimetidinum (CM) was studied using the experimental murine model of B16 F10 melanoma in vivo. It is shown that skin melanoma biotherapy by antitumor whole-cell GM-CSF-producing vaccine with the addition of CM (in dose of 25 mg/kg, daily for ...

Abstract Purpose To assess the predictive capability of CT radiomics features for early recurrence (ER) of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Methods Postoperative PDAC patients were retrospectively selected, all of whom had undergone preoperative CT imaging and surgery. Both patients with resectable or borderline‐resectable pancreatic cancer met

STRAP Is a Strong Predictive Marker of Adjuvant Chemotherapy Benefit in Colorectal Cancer
BACKGROUND: Molecular predictors for the effectiveness of adjuvant chemotherapy in colorectal cancer are of considerable clinical interest. To this aim, we analyzed the serine threonine receptor-associated protein (STRAP), an inhibitor of TGF-βsignaling,
