Clinical and Biological Features of Response in Resistant Neuroblastoma to 131I‐Metaiodobenzylguanidine Radiotherapy in the Anti‐GD2 Immunotherapy Era

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background 131I‐metaiodobenzylguanidine (131I‐MIBG) radiotherapy is a key treatment for relapsed and refractory (R/R) neuroblastoma (NB). Patients with R/R disease treated in the modern era are increasingly exposed to anti‐GD2 immunotherapy, which exerts selective pressure and may modify both tumor cell state and microenvironment.

Assessing LEDBAT's Delay Impact [PDF]

IEEE Communications Letters, 2013
The major goal of the LEDBAT congestion control mechanism is to limit the amount of queuing delay that it causes. Using simulations, we show two aspects of the mechanism that may sometimes make LEDBAT's delay impact quite significant: first, it updates its "base delay" every 10 minutes, but may measure its own induced delay in doing so, even in the ...
