A randomized multi-center phase II trial of the angiogenesis inhibitor Cilengitide (EMD 121974) and gemcitabine compared with gemcitabine alone in advanced unresectable pancreatic cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Background Anti-angiogenic treatment is believed to have at least cystostatic effects in highly vascularized tumours like pancreatic cancer. In this study, the treatment effects of the angiogenesis inhibitor Cilengitide and gemcitabine were compared with

Are serial CA 19-9 kinetics helpful in predicting survival in patients with advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer treated with gemcitabine and cisplatin? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Background: Serial kinetics of serum CA 19-9 levels have been reported to reflect response and survival in patients with pancreatic cancer undergoing surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy.

Oral capecitabine in gemcitabine-pretreated patients with advanced pancreatic cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Objective: To date, no standard regimen for salvage chemotherapy after gemcitabine (Gem) failure has been defined for patients with advanced pancreatic cancer (PC). Oral capecitabine (Cap) has shown promising activity in first-line chemotherapy trials in

Assessing prognosis in metastatic pancreatic cancer by the serum tumor marker CA 19-9: Pretreatment levels or kinetics during chemotherapy? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Background: The carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9) is currently the most widely used serum tumor marker in pancreatic cancer (PC). CA 19-9 pretreatment levels as well as CA 19-9 kinetics during systemic chemotherapy can provide prognostic information ...

Randomized phase II trial of irinotecan with paclitaxel or gemcitabine for non-small cell lung cancer: association of UGT1A1*6 and UGT1A1*27 with severe neutropenia. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Irinotecan-containing regimens are known to be active and tolerable in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). A randomized phase II trial was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of irinotecan plus paclitaxel or gemcitabine for previously ...

Nuclear PLD1 combined with NPM1 induces gemcitabine resistance through tumorigenic IL7R in pancreatic adenocarcinoma

open access: yesCancer Biology & Medicine, 2023
Objective: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly malignant gastrointestinal cancer with a 5-year survival rate of only 9%. Of PDAC patients, 15%-20% are eligible for radical surgery.

Digoxin sensitizes gemcitabine-resistant pancreatic cancer cells to gemcitabine via inhibiting Nrf2 signaling pathway

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2019
Chemoresistance is a major therapeutic obstacle in the treatment of human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). As an oxidative stress responsive transcription factor, nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) regulates the expression of ...
