概括
与单独使用temozolomide (TEM) 相比,capecitabine加temozolomide (CAPTEM) 化疗显示了较好的无进展生存期 (PFS),用于高级非典型癌 (AC). 需要进一步的研究来证实肺部神经内分泌瘤中的这些发现.
科学领域:
- 在瘤学瘤学.
- 医学研究 医学研究
- 临床试验 临床试验
背景情况:
- 肺部神经内分泌瘤 (NENs) 约占肺癌的20%.
- 对于非典型的癌类药物 (ACs) 存在有限的治疗选择.
- 单剂特莫索洛米德 (TEM) 在肺NEN中表现出活性.
研究的目的:
- 研究基于TEM的疗法 (TEM与capecitabine加上temozolomide [CAPTEM]) 在晚期AC患者的疗效.
- 为了比较TEM和CAPTEM治疗之间的无进展生存率 (PFS),整体反应率 (ORR) 和整体生存率 (OS).
主要方法:
- 从2003年1月至2023年1月期间接受AC治疗的患者前性收集数据的回顾性分析.
- 患者接受了TEM或CAPTEM作为任何治疗线.
- 主要终点:PFS;次要终点:ORR和OS.
主要成果:
- 这项研究包括31名晚期AC患者 (17名CAPTEM,14名TEM).
- 与TEM (15.5个月) 相比,CAPTEM (33.9个月) 的PFS中位数显著更长 (p=0.047).

Combination Therapies and Personalized Medicine
4.8K
Combining two or more treatment methods increases the life span of cancer patients while reducing damage to vital organs or tissue from the overuse of a single treatment. Combination therapy also targets different cancer-inducing pathways, thus reducing the chances of developing resistance to treatment.
The combination of the drug acetazolamide and sulforaphane is a good example of combination therapy to treat cancer. The cells in the interior of a large tumor often die due to the hypoxic and...

Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting: 5-HT3 Receptor Antagonists
173
5-HT3 receptor antagonists, such as dolasetron, granisetron (Kytril), ondansetron (Zofran), and palonosetron (Axoli), are crucial in managing chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) and postoperative nausea. These drugs selectively block 5-HT3 receptors in the visceral vagal and spinal afferent nerves, chemoreceptor trigger zone, and the vomiting center. They have a rapid onset of action and can be given as a single dose before chemotherapy. Ondansetron and granisetron, in particular,...

Tumor Immunotherapy
467
Immunotherapy is a treatment that boosts or manipulates the immune system to fight diseases, including cancer. For instance, by stimulating an immune response through vaccinations against viruses that cause cancers, like hepatitis B virus and human papillomavirus, these diseases can be prevented. Nonetheless, some cancer cells can avoid the immune system due to their rapid mutation and division. The immune response to many cancers involves three phases: elimination, equilibrium, and escape.

Targeted Cancer Therapies
7.4K
The targeted cancer therapies, also known as “molecular targeted therapies,” take advantage of the molecular and genetic differences between the cancer cells and the normal cells. It needs a thorough understanding of the cancer cells to develop drugs that can target specific molecular aspects that drive the growth, progression, and spread of cancer cells without affecting the growth and survival of other normal cells in the body.
