This is a research study to find out if a drug called, osimertinib, is safe and effective in treating advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) by targeting the treatment of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation exon 18 G719X, exon 20 S7681, or exon 21 L861Q. Patients on the study will
The arrival of new therapeutic strategies such as targeted therapies has led to real progress in the treatment of cancers. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors and antibodies to epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFR), or iEGFR, target one of the major pathways of tumor cell proliferation. These treatments
Bosutinib is a potent tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) active at nM concentration on BCR-ABL1 and most BCR-ABL1 mutations. Bosutinib has been approved by the FDA and the EMA for the treatment of patients with Ph+/BCR-ABL1+ chronic myeloid leukemia who fail treatment with other TKIs, first or second
The Philadelphia chromosome-negative chronic myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are a group of hematopoietic stem cell malignancies that include polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), and primary myelofibrosis (PMF). PV and ET can evolve into myelofibrosis, termed post PV/ET MF.
Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer death among women worldwide, with approximately 800, 000 breast cancer deaths annually projected to occur in 2030 globally[1]. Activation and over-expression of oncogenes encoding trans-membrane receptor tyrosine kinases of the epidermal growth factor
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES:
- To study GH-IGF1 axis in children with CML having short stature following Imatinib therapy.
- To administer growth hormone therapy to children with CML on Imatinib in remission having GH deficiency.
STUDY DESIGN: It is an interventional, non-randomized study. STUDY GROUP: one
Case reports have tried to demonstrate the benefit in the treatment of rash obtained with: alcohol-free emollients used 2-3 times daily, sunscreen with titanium dioxide or zinc oxide with a skin protection factor (SPF) greater than 15, topic or oral antibiotic regimens (such as clindamycin,
Esophageal cancer is a highly aggressive neoplasm which is fatal in the great majority of patients. On a global basis, cancer of the esophagus is the sixth leading cause of cancer death worldwide. In fact, gastric and esophageal cancers together accounted for nearly 1.3 million new cases and 980,000
At present, the third generation of platinum-based regimens (NCCN clinical practice guidelines recommended the use of vinorelbine or gemcitabine, or Taxol, etc.) is the first-line treatment for advanced lung cancer patients. Its effective rate is 20-30%, the median survival time is 7-9 months,
Erlotinib
Advances in the knowledge of tumor biology and mechanisms of oncogenesis has granted the singling out of several molecular targets for NSCLC treatment. Among these targets, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), or HER1, has received particular attention in lung cancer treatment. EGFR is
Not suitable: no more information is needed to be described.
Approximately 30,000 new cases of local-regionally advanced head and neck carcinoma (HNC) and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) are diagnosed each year for which surgery is either insufficient, non-curative or not feasible. For these patients, radiation therapy is the mainstay of
OM with mucosal change, associated pain, and taste change - are clinically relevant toxicities of TKI's and mTORI's presently in use. The incidence of oral mucositis of any grade is for sunitinib 38%, sorafenib 28%, pazopanib 4%, temsirolimus 41%, and for everolimus 44%.
Optimal antitumor activity
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most common leukemia in the western world. The disease mostly affects the elderly. At present no curative therapy is available. Although the majority of patients initially do respond to chemotherapy, most patients eventually develop drug resistance. The
