The current study focused on the development of crosslinked hydrogel microneedle patches (cHMNs) incorporating 5-FU-hydroxypropyl beta-cyclodextrin inclusion complex-loaded flexible PEGylated liposomes (5-FU-HPβCD-loaded FP-LPs) to enhance treatment ...
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...
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...
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 ...

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...
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...

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...
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...
