Digitoxin medication and cancer; case control and internal dose-response studies
Background Digitoxin induces apoptosis in different human malignant cell lines in vitro. In this paper we investigated if patients taking digitoxin for cardiac disease have a different cancer incidence compared to the general population. Methods Computer

Development of CPA-Catalyzed β-Selective Reductive Amination of Cardenolides for the Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Hydrolytically Stable Analogs. [PDF]
We describe a new method to produce hydrolytically stable cardiotonic steroids using a CPA‐controlled diastereoselective reductive amination of cardenolide aglycones. The oleandrin and digitoxigenin analogs exhibited promising activity against various cancer cell lines in the NCI‐60 screen.

Optimal designs for random effect models with correlated errors with applications in population pharmacokinetics [PDF]
We consider the problem of constructing optimal designs for population pharmacokinetics which use random effect models. It is common practice in the design of experiments in such studies to assume uncorrelated errors for each subject.
