UFT/leucovorin and oxaliplatin alternated with UFT/leucovorin and irinotecan in metastatic colorectal cancer [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Cancer, 2004
A total of 41 metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) patients received tegafur/uracil (UFT)+leucovorin (LV)+oxaliplatin alternated with UFT/LV+irinotecan. The overall response rate was 58.5% (95% confidence interval, 42.2-73.3%), and the median progression-free survival was 8.8 months. There were no grade 4 toxicities; 12 patients (29%) experienced grade 3

Lignin Mimicking Protein Methylation Augments the Efficacy of FOLFOX Chemotherapy by Anchoring Thymidylate Synthase

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Lignin‐mimicking protein methylation can enhance the efficacy and mitigate the toxicity of the classic FOLFOX chemotherapy regimen. ABSTRACT FOLFOX has served as the standard chemotherapy regimen for advanced stages, specifically in the treatment of pancreatic, colorectal, and bladder cancers.

Folate homeostasis of cancer cells affects sensitivity to not only antifolates but also other non-folate drugs: effect of MRP expression

open access: yesPteridines, 2013
Sensitivity to antifolates can be decreased by endogenous or exogenous folates. Leucovorin protects cancer patients against toxicity of the dihydrofolate reductase inhibitor methotrexate (MTX), while folic acid is used to protect rheumatoid arthritis ...

A Spatially Directed Microneedle Patch Enables Intratumoral Co‐Delivery of FOLFIRINOX, Surufatinib, and Anti‐PD‐1 for Chemo‐Immunotherapy of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A double‐layered shell‐core microneedle patch is developed to co‐deliver FOLFIRINOX, surufatinib, and anti‐PD‐1 for localized chemo‐immunotherapy of PDAC. This strategy achieves sustained tumor suppression, reduces metastasis, and reprograms the TME by enhancing CD8+ T‐cell infiltration and inhibiting Tregs and M2 macrophages infiltration, while ...

Autophagy Orchestrates Anti‐Tumor Immunity to Enhance Chemosensitivity via the FBXW2/C/EBPβ/TIMP‐2 Axis in Colorectal Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Chemotherapy leverages tumor‐cell autophagy to reshape the colorectal cancer immune microenvironment. Autophagy degrades FBXW2 to promote C/EBPβ‐mediated TIMP‐2 transcription and MMP‐9 suppression, driving intra‐tumoral CD8+ T‐cell infiltration. Targeting MMP‐2/9 or restoring TIMP‐2 overcomes chemo‐resistance in autophagy‐deficient tumors. ABSTRACT The
