Sequential dose-dense single agent chemotherapy for locally advanced breast cancer [PDF]
Archive of Oncology, 2003 Chemotherapy of breast cancer is still the area of intensive research. Based on mathematical model of tumor cell growth kinetics, articulated by Larry Norton, novel concept of chemotherapy in breast cancer was launched and it implies dose-densification ...

Food-induced behavioral sensitization, its cross-sensitization to cocaine and morphine, pharmacological blockade, and effect on food intake [PDF]
, 2006 Repeated administration of abused drugs sensitizes their stimulant effects and results in a drug-paired environment eliciting conditioned activity. We tested whether food induces similar effects.

Tacrolimus concentration/dose ratio as a therapeutic drug monitoring strategy: The influence of gender and comedication [PDF]
Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2015 Background/Aim. A combination of tacrolimus and other drugs such as corticosteroids has been commonly used immunosuppresive regimens. On the other hand, there is a growing body of evidence that male and female may differ in their response to the

Acute drug effects on habitual and non-habitual responding in crossed high alcohol preferring mice [PDF]
, 2018 RATIONALE: Drug reward plays a central role in acquiring drug-seeking behavior. However, subjects may continue using drugs despite negative consequences because self-administration becomes habitual, and divorced from outcome values. Although a history

Dose-response relationship in phase I clinical trials: A European Drug Development Network (EDDN) collaboration study. [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Oncology, 2011 Abstract Introduction: Because a dose–response relationship is characteristic of conventional chemotherapy, this concept is widely used for the development of novel cytotoxic (CTX) drugs. However, the need to reach the MTD to obtain optimal benefit with molecularly targeted agents (MTA) is controversial.

Targeted randomization dose optimization trials enable fractional dosing of scarce drugs.
PLoS ONE, 2023 Administering drug at a dose lower than that used in pivotal clinical trials, known as fractional dosing, can stretch scarce resources. Implementing fractional dosing with confidence requires understanding a drug's dose-response relationship.

Evaluation of the anticoagulant effect of vitamin K antagonists in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrilation [PDF]
Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2020 Background/Aim. Despite the introduction of new oral anticoagulants (dabigatran, rivoroxaban, apixaban), vitamin K antagonists (VKA), such as warfarin and acenocoumarol are still the most widely used oral anticoagulants for the treatment of nonvalvular ...

A strategy to model nonmonotonic dose-response curve and estimate IC50. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The half-maximal inhibitory concentration IC[Formula: see text] is an important pharmacodynamic index of drug effectiveness. To estimate this value, the dose response relationship needs to be established, which is generally achieved by fitting monotonic ...
