Personalized Selumetinib Dosing in Pediatric Neurofibromatosis Type 1: Insights From a Pilot Therapeutic Drug Monitoring Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate selumetinib exposure using therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) in pediatric patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) and plexiform neurofibromas (PN), assess interpatient pharmacokinetic variability, and explore the relationship between drug exposure, clinical response, and adverse effects.

Adherence to Protocol Recommendations for Children With Wilms Tumour in Two Consecutive Studies in the United Kingdom and Ireland—Does Variation Matter?

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Wilms tumour (WT) has excellent event‐free and overall survival (OS). However, small differences exist between countries participating in the same international study. This led us to examine variation in adherence to protocol recommendations as a potential contributing factor.

Modified Courant-Beltrami penalty function and a duality gap for invex optimization problem

open access: yesInternational Journal for Simulation and Multidisciplinary Design Optimization, 2019
In this paper, we modified a Courant-Beltrami penalty function method for constrained optimization problem to study a duality for convex nonlinear mathematical programming problems. Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) optimality conditions for the penalized problem

Outcomes of Live Virus Vaccination in Patients With Vascular Anomalies Being Treated With Sirolimus

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Live vaccination in patients with vascular anomalies (VA) receiving sirolimus remains controversial due to immunosuppressive effects and theoretical risks. Procedure This single‐center retrospective study included patients with VA less than 4 years old at the start of sirolimus therapy who were incompletely vaccinated.

Ex-Post Full Surplus Extraction, Straightforwardly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Consider an estimate of the common value of an auctioned asset that is symmetric in the bidders' types. Such an estimate can be represented solely in terms of the order statistics of those types.

Computing exact $D$-optimal designs by mixed integer second-order cone programming

open access: yes, 2015
Let the design of an experiment be represented by an $s$-dimensional vector $\mathbf {w}$ of weights with nonnegative components. Let the quality of $\mathbf {w}$ for the estimation of the parameters of the statistical model be measured by the criterion ...

Optimal two-level conjoint designs with constant attributes in the profile sets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We propose a simple strategy to construct D-, A-, G- and V-optimal two-level designs for rating-based conjoint studies with large numbers of attributes. In order to simplify the rating task, the designs hold one or more attributes at a constant level in ...

The Fate (Outcome) of Clinically Apparent Single Lesion and Oligofocal Nephroblastomatosis Treated According to SIOP/GPOH Protocols for Wilms Tumor

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The management of clinically apparent single lesions or oligofocal nephroblastomatosis, a facultative precursor of nephroblastoma, remains debated. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 37 patients with clinically apparent single or oligofocal nephroblastomatosis (two to three lesions per kidney) among 2347 patients registered between
