Abstract Purpose: To determine the association of the cell proliferative marker
Ki-67 with pathologic features and disease prognosis in patients with
transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the urinary bladder. Methods:
Immunohistochemical staining for Ki-67 was done on serial cuts from tissue
microarrays containing cystectomy specimens from 9 patients without bladder
cancer and 226 consecutive patie... hiện toàn bộ
Development of Molecularly Targeted Therapies in Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Where Do We Go Now?Clinical Cancer Research - Tập 16 Số 2 - Trang 390-397 - 2010
Richard S. Finn
Abstract Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), once considered an orphan disease in
the West, has become a global health concern. It is the third leading cause of
cancer death worldwide, and its incidence continues to increase. Historically,
the development of new systemic agents for advanced HCC has been lacking despite
no clear benefit with traditional cytotoxic therapies. Although two randomized

Resveratrol Inhibits Tumor Growth of Human Neuroblastoma and Mediates Apoptosis by Directly Targeting MitochondriaClinical Cancer Research - Tập 13 Số 17 - Trang 5162-5169 - 2007
Paul R. van Ginkel, Dhruv Sareen, Lalita Subramanian, Quintisha Walker, Soesiawati R. Darjatmoko, Mary J. Lindstrom, Amol D. Kulkarni, Daniel M. Albert, Arthur S. Polans
Abstract Purpose: Neuroblastoma is an aggressive childhood disease of the
sympathetic nervous system. Treatments are often ineffective and have serious
side effects. Because resveratrol, a natural plant product, has been reported to
have limited toxicity at chemotherapeutic levels, we investigated its efficacy
in the treatment of neuroblastoma as well as its underlying mechanism of action.

Twist1-Mediated Adriamycin-Induced Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition Relates to Multidrug Resistance and Invasive Potential in Breast Cancer CellsClinical Cancer Research - Tập 15 Số 8 - Trang 2657-2665 - 2009
Qingquan Li, Jingda Xu, Wenjuan Wang, Xi-Xi Cao, Qi Chen, Feng Tang, Zhongqing Chen, Xiuping Liu, Zu‐De Xu
Abstract Purpose: Besides its therapeutic effects, chemotherapeutic agents also
enhance the malignancy of treated cancers in clinical situations. Recently,
epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) has attracted attention in studies of
tumor progression. We aimed to test whether transient Adriamycin treatment
induces EMT and apoptosis simultaneously in cancer cells, clarify why the same
type of cell... hiện toàn bộ
Resveratrol Suppresses the Angiogenesis and Tumor Growth of Gliomas in RatsClinical Cancer Research - Tập 10 Số 6 - Trang 2190-2202 - 2004
Sheng-Hong Tseng, Swei-Ming Lin, Jin-Cherng Chen, Yen‐Hao Su, Hsin‐Yi Huang, Chia-Kang Chen, Po-Yin Lin, Yun Chen
Abstract Purpose: We wanted to investigate the antitumor effects and effect on
angiogenesis of resveratrol in rat RT-2 gliomas. Experimental Design: RT-2
glioma cells were treated with resveratrol, and then cytotoxicity was assayed,
apoptosis was measured by flow-activated cell sorter flow cytometry, and
expression of vascular endothelial growth factor was measured by reverse
transcription-PCR. Tu... hiện toàn bộ
Early Changes in Circulating Tumor Cells Are Associated with Response and Survival Following Treatment of Metastatic Neuroendocrine NeoplasmsClinical Cancer Research - Tập 22 Số 1 - Trang 79-85 - 2016
Mohid S. Khan, Amy A. Kirkwood, Theodora Tsigani, Helen L. Lowe, Robert M. Goldstein, John A. Hartley, Martyn Caplin, Tim Meyer
Abstract Purpose: To investigate posttreatment circulating tumor cell (CTC)
counts in patients with neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) as a predictive
biomarker for disease progression and overall survival (OS). Experimental
Design: Patients with metastatic NENs commencing therapy were prospectively
recruited (n = 138). Blood samples were obtained for evaluation of CTCs using
the CellSearch platform ... hiện toàn bộ
Circulating Tumor Cells and EpCAM Expression in Neuroendocrine TumorsClinical Cancer Research - Tập 17 Số 2 - Trang 337-345 - 2011
Mohid S. Khan, Theodora Tsigani, Mohammed Rashid, Jeremy S. Rabouhans, Dominic Yu, Tu Vinh Luong, Martyn Caplin, Tim Meyer
Abstract Purpose: Neuroendocrine tumors (NET) are heterogeneous tumors with
widely variable survival. It is unknown whether they express EpCAM (epithelial
cell adhesion molecule) and thus whether NET circulating tumor cells (CTC) are
detectable. We systematically investigated EpCAM expression and CTC detection in
patients with metastatic NETs and evaluated the potential of CTCs to predict
radiolog... hiện toàn bộ
Immunohistochemical and Clinical Characterization of the Basal-Like Subtype of Invasive Breast CarcinomaClinical Cancer Research - Tập 10 Số 16 - Trang 5367-5374 - 2004

Abstract Purpose: Expression profiling studies classified breast carcinomas into
estrogen receptor (ER)+/luminal, normal breast-like, HER2 overexpressing, and
basal-like groups, with the latter two associated with poor outcomes. Currently,
there exist clinical assays that identify ER+/luminal and HER2-overexpressing
tumors, and we sought to develop a clinical assay for breast basal-like tumors.

KIT (CD117)-Positive Breast Cancers Are Infrequent and Lack KIT Gene MutationsClinical Cancer Research - Tập 10 Số 1 - Trang 178-183 - 2004
Ronald Simon, S. Panussis, Robert Maurer, Hanspeter Spichtin, Kathrin Glatz, Coya Tapia, Martina Mirlacher, Alex Rufle, J. Torhorst, Guido Sauter
Abstract Purpose: KIT (CD117) is a transmembrane tyrosine kinase representing a
target for STI571 (Glivec) therapy. Some KIT-overexpressing solid tumors have
responded favorably to STI571, potentially because of the presence of
KIT-activating mutations. Experimental Design: To investigate the epidemiology
of KIT overexpression and mutations, we investigated a series of 1654 breast
cancers. All tum... hiện toàn bộ
