Five tumor markers in lung cancer: Significance of total and>-Bound sialic acid
(1991)
Total sialic acid (TSA) and > sialic acid (LSA) were evaluated in comparison to carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and ferritin and neuron specific enolase (NSE) in 152 untreated patients with primary lung cancer, 107 benign ...
Measuring Altruistic and Solidaristic Orientations Toward Others among People Who Inject Drugs
(2015)
The altruism and/or solidarity of people who inject drugs helps protect sex and drug partners from HIV. Research has been hindered by lack of measures. We developed and administered scales to assess them to 300 people who ...
Personality variables as predictors of early non-metastatic colorectal cancer patients' psychological distress and health-related quality of life: A one-year prospective study
(2011)
Objective: We aimed to assess the course of early non-metastatic colorectal cancer patients' psychological distress and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) and to identify relevant clinical and psychological predictors ...
Paclitaxel (175 mg/m2) plus carboplatin versus paclitaxel (225 mg/m2) plus carboplatin in non-small cell lung cancer: a randomized study.
(1997)
A recent phase II study by our group documented a response rate of 27% with the combination paclitaxel (Taxol; Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, Princeton, NJ) 175 mg/m2 plus carboplatin dosed to a target area under the ...
Bisphosphonate use and risk of colorectal cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis
(2013)
Aim: A growing body of evidence suggests that bisphosphonates may have chemopreventive potential against colorectal cancer. Our aim was to examine this association through a meta-analysis of observational studies. Methods: ...
Successful treatment of human immunodeficiency virus-related castleman's disease: A case report and literature review

Population pharmacokinetic-dynamic analysis was prospectively integrated in a broad phase II program of lurtotecan (GI147211), a novel camptothecin derived topoisomerase I inhibitor, to determine the population pharmacokinetic ...
Global profiling of EGFR gene mutation, amplification, regulation and tissue protein expression in unknown primary carcinomas: To target or not to target?
(2007)
Introduction: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signalling contributes to malignant transformation and survival. We studied molecular predictors of benefit from EGFR-modulating therapies in patients with cancer of ...
Fluorouracil and leucovorin with or without interferon alfa-2b in advanced colorectal cancer: Analysis of a prospective randomized phase III trial
(1996)
Purpose: To investigate if double modulation of fluorouracil (5-FU) with leucovorin (folinic acid [FA]) and interferon alfa-2b (IFN 2b) improves responses and survival in comparison to single modulation of 5-FU with FA. ...
