Platinum-based chemotherapy is one of treatment mainstay for patients with advanced lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) but it is still a "one-size fits all" approach. Here, we aimed to investigate the predictive and monitoring role of circulating c...
Cancer patient classification using predictive biomarkers for anti-cancer drug responses is essential for improving therapeutic outcomes. However, current machine-learning-based predictions of drug response often fail to identify robust translational...
BACKGROUND: To explore the prognostic value and the role for treatment decision of pathological microscopic features in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) using the method of deep learning.
Cisplatin ceases cell division and induces apoptosis in cancer cell lines. It is well established that cisplatin alters the expression of many genes involved in several cellular processes and pathways including transcription, p53 signaling pathway, a...
Chemotherapy resistance is a major challenge to the effective treatment of cancer. Thus, a systematic pipeline for the efficient identification of effective combination treatments could bring huge biomedical benefit. In order to facilitate rational d...
Searching for new leads in the battle of cancer will never ends, we herein disclose the design and synthesis of new phthalazine derivatives and their in vitro and in vivo testing for their antiproliferative activity. Phthalazine was selected as a pri...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Optimized drug regimens for hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) have not been standardized completely in patients with advanced gastric cancer (GC). We evaluated an optimized anti-tumor protocol comprising 5-f...

GST-TAT-SOD, a cell-permeable bifunctional antioxidant enzyme, is a potential selective radioprotector. This study aimed to investigate the cytoprotective activity of GST-TAT-SOD against cisplatin-induced damage. The current study showed that cisplat...
OBJECTIVES: Malignant pleural effusion (MPE) has a poor prognosis. Most patients are treated with tube thoracostomy and sclerotherapy, although its success rate is around 64%. We have investigated intrapleural perfusion with hyperthermic chemotherapy...

. Serum cystatin C seems to be an accurate marker of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) compared to serum creatinine. The aim of this work was to explore the possibility of using serum cystatin C instead of serum creatinine to early predict renal failu...
