Prediction of High-Dose Methotrexate Blood Concentration in Osteosarcoma Patients Using Machine Learning.

Drug design, development and therapy
INTRODUCTION: High-dose methotrexate is a typical chemotherapy that is widely used in the treatment of osteosarcoma. However, the unique dose-response relationship of methotrexate makes its treatment window relatively narrow, and its clinical use is ...

Factors associated with long-term survival in gemcitabine-concurrent proton radiotherapy for non-metastatic locally advanced pancreatic cancer: a single-center retrospective study.

Radiation oncology (London, England)
BACKGROUND: Factors associated with long-term survival in gemcitabine-concurrent proton radiotherapy (GPT) for non-metastatic, locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC) remain unclear. This study aimed to determine the factors associated with long-te...

Using Machine Learning Approaches to Predict Short-Term Risk of Cardiotoxicity Among Patients with Colorectal Cancer After Starting Fluoropyrimidine-Based Chemotherapy.

Cardiovascular toxicology
Cardiotoxicity is a severe side effect for colorectal cancer (CRC) patients undergoing fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy. To develop and compare machine learning algorithms to predict cardiotoxicity risk among nationally representative CRC patients...

Risk prediction for delayed clearance of high-dose methotrexate in pediatric hematological malignancies by machine learning.

International journal of hematology
This study aimed to establish a predictive model to identify children with hematologic malignancy at high risk for delayed clearance of high-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) based on machine learning. A total of 205 patients were recruited. Five variables ...

An Application of Machine Learning in Pharmacovigilance: Estimating Likely Patient Genotype From Phenotypical Manifestations of Fluoropyrimidine Toxicity.

Clinical pharmacology and therapeutics
Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD)-deficient patients might only become aware of their genotype after exposure to dihydropyrimidines, if testing is performed. Case reports to pharmacovigilance databases might only contain phenotypical manifestatio...

Machine learning predicts individual cancer patient responses to therapeutic drugs with high accuracy.

Scientific reports
Precision or personalized cancer medicine is a clinical approach that strives to customize therapies based upon the genomic profiles of individual patient tumors. Machine learning (ML) is a computational method particularly suited to the establishmen...

Efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of subcutaneous azacitidine in Chinese patients with higher risk myelodysplastic syndromes: Results from a multicenter, single-arm, open-label phase 2 study.

Asia-Pacific journal of clinical oncology
BACKGROUND: Azacitidine safety and efficacy were established in studies of mainly Caucasian patients. Differences in drug metabolism enzymes between Caucasian and East Asian populations prevent extrapolation of drug effects between these groups. This...

Monitoring vascular normalization induced by antiangiogenic treatment with (18)F-fluoromisonidazole-PET.

Molecular oncology
BACKGROUND: Rationalization of antiangiogenics requires biomarkers. Vascular re-normalization is one widely accepted mechanism of action for this drug class. The interstitium of tumors with abnormal vasculature is hypoxic. We sought to track vascular...
