  • Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma Treatment Regimens
    Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma Treatment Regimens Clinical Trials: The NCCN recommends cancer patient participation in clinical trials as the gold standard for treatment. Cancer therapy selection, dosing, administration, and the management of related adverse events can be a complex process that should be handled by an experienced healthcare team. Clinicians must choose and verify treatment options based on the individual patient; drug dose modifications and supportive care interventions should be administered accordingly. The cancer treatment regimens below may include both U.S. Food and Drug Administration-approved and unapproved indications/regimens. These regimens are only provided to supplement the latest treatment strategies. These Guidelines are a work in progress that may be refined as often as new significant data becomes available. The National Comprehensive Cancer Network Guidelines® are a consensus statement of its authors regarding their views of currently accepted approaches to treatment. Any clinician seeking to apply or consult any NCCN Guidelines® is expected to use independent medical judgment in the context of individual clinical circumstances to determine any patient’s care or treatment.

  • Treatment of Oxaliplatin-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy by Intravenous Mangafodipir
    Treatment of oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy by intravenous mangafodipir Romain Coriat, … , François Goldwasser, Frédéric Batteux J Clin Invest. 2014;124(1):262-272. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI68730. Clinical Medicine Background. The majority of patients receiving the platinum-based chemotherapy drug oxaliplatin develop peripheral neurotoxicity. Because this neurotoxicity involves ROS production, we investigated the efficacy of mangafodipir, a molecule that has antioxidant properties and is approved for use as an MRI contrast enhancer. Methods. The effects of mangafodipir were examined in mice following treatment with oxaliplatin. Neurotoxicity, axon myelination, and advanced oxidized protein products (AOPPs) were monitored. In addition, we enrolled 23 cancer patients with grade ≥2 oxaliplatin-induced neuropathy in a phase II study, with 22 patients receiving i.v. mangafodipir following oxaliplatin. Neuropathic effects were monitored for up to 8 cycles of oxaliplatin and mangafodipir. Results. Mangafodipir prevented motor and sensory dysfunction and demyelinating lesion formation. In mice, serum AOPPs decreased after 4 weeks of mangafodipir treatment. In 77% of patients treated with oxaliplatin and mangafodipir, neuropathy improved or stabilized after 4 cycles. After 8 cycles, neurotoxicity was downgraded to grade ≥2 in 6 of 7 patients. Prior to enrollment, patients received an average of 880 ± 239 mg/m2 oxaliplatin. Patients treated with mangafodipir tolerated an additional dose of 458 ± 207 mg/m2 oxaliplatin despite preexisting

  • The Efficacy and Safety of Modified FOLFIRINOX As First-Line
    Wang et al. Cancer Commun (2019) 39:26 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40880-019-0367-7 Cancer Communications ORIGINAL ARTICLE Open Access The efcacy and safety of modifed FOLFIRINOX as frst-line chemotherapy for Chinese patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer Zhi‑Qiang Wang1†, Fei Zhang1†, Ting Deng2, Le Zhang2, Fen Feng3, Feng‑Hua Wang1, Wei Wang3, De‑Shen Wang1, Hui‑Yan Luo1, Rui‑Hua Xu1, Yi Ba2* and Yu‑Hong Li1* Abstract Background: Oxaliplatin, irinotecan, 5‑fuorouracil, and L‑leucovorin (FOLFIRINOX) has become one of the frst‑line treat‑ ment options for advanced pancreatic cancer (PC). However, the relatively high rate of grade 3 or 4 adverse events associated with the standard dosage of FOLFIRINOX limits its widespread use in clinical practice. In this study, we were to evaluate the efcacy and safety of a modifed FOLFIRINOX regimen as a frst‑line chemotherapy for Chinese patients with metastatic PC. Methods: Patients with histologically confrmed primary metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma with an East‑ ern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score of 0–2 were recruited to receive the modifed 2 2 FOLFIRINOX regimen (intravenous infusion of oxaliplatin, 65 mg/m ; irinotecan, 150 mg/m ; L‑leucovorin, 200 mg/ m2; and 5‑fuorouracil, 2400 mg/m2, repeated every 2 weeks). The treatment was continued for 12 cycles unless the patient had progressive disease (PD), stable disease (SD) with symptom deterioration, unacceptable adverse events, or requested to terminate the treatment prematurely. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR). Results: Sixty‑fve patients were enrolled from July 2012 to April 2017 in three institutions, and they all received at least one cycle of chemotherapy, with a median of 8 cycles (range 1–12 cycles).

  • The Future of Clinical Research in Oncology: Where Are We Heading To?
    Review Article Page 1 of 7 The future of clinical research in oncology: where are we heading to? Denis Lacombe, Yan Liu The European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Headquarters, Brussels, Belgium Corresponding to: Denis Lacombe, Director. The European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Headquarters, Avenue E. Mounier 83, B-1200 Brussels, Belgium. Email: [email protected]. Abstract: Despite considerable investment in oncological research, the rate of improvement in cancer treatments remains frustratingly slow and the attrition rate in anticancer drug development has reached exasperatingly high levels. New skills are required to expand upon platforms to integrate clinical, biological and imaging data in the decision making process so that we can control the attrition rate of new drugs and/or determine tumor molecular sub-entities which will ultimately benefit new therapeutic strategies. Furthermore, modern clinical trials will be unable to generate reliable and robust evidence if they are not quality assured. Decreasing the number of poorly designed clinical trials through stronger collaboration between industry and academia is a win-win situation and will reduce the current high attrition rate and minimize exposure of patients to ineffective investigational therapies.
