Abstract:

The use of cytotoxic drugs, Chemotherapy, is considered by many a valid modality in the treatment of cancer. The use of this modality in the 1950's and 1960's led to considerable success in the treatment of a number of incurable and quickly lethal rare cancers. This gave rise in the 1970's to a high expectation that Chemotherapy would provide a much needed breakthrough in the search for a cure for cancer. This optimism has led to a significant extension of the modality beyond the above known limits of successful use and created a climate which strongly supports this experimental application,

Abstract:

The O6-alkylguanine DNA alkyltransferase (hAGT or MGMT) is a DNA repair protein in charge of removing alkyl adducts from the O6 position of guanines, blocking their cytotoxic effects and playing an important role as a resistance mechanism to chemotherapy in cancer patients. For these reasons, it is considered relevant as a prognosis marker of cancer and represents a potential therapeutic target. Intense research efforts have been devoted to the identification of small molecules capable of inhibiting hAGT activity and enhancing the cytotoxic effect of the alkylating agents in tumour cells. I

Abstract:

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy in oesophageal cancer has gained rapid favour in le United Kingdom over the past few years. It remains controversial outside the UK, with mixed results from clinical trials. The work in this thesis begins with a review of the literature on neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and of the antimetabolites and platinum agents used. The quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (qRTPCR) used to identify molecular determinants of chemosensitivity is discussed followed by a look at the clinical experience of neoadjuvant chemotherapy at a single centre.

Background: Although the growth-factor G-CSF is widely used to prevent granulotoxic side effects of cytotoxic chemotherapies, its optimal use is still unknown since treatment outcome depends on many parameters such as dosing and timing of chemotherapies, pharmaceutical derivative of G-CSF used and individual risk factors. We showed in the past that a pharmacokinetic and dynamic model of G-CSF and human granulopoiesis can be used to predict the performance of yet untested G-CSF schedules. However, only a single chemotherapy was considered so far. In the present paper, we propose a comprehensive

Abstract:

Pulmonary delivery offers an attractive route for delivering chemotherapeutics, with the benefits of high drug concentrations locally and low side effects systemically. However, fast clearance of small molecules in the lungs and the pulmonary toxicity are the main obstacles in this field. In this thesis, we explored the utility of polyethylene glycol-paclitaxel (PEG-PTX) conjugates to achieve sustained drug release in the lungs. Paclitaxel was linked to 6 kDa and 20 kDa PEG and the conjugates showed good stability and cytotoxicity in vitro. PEG-PTX largely increased the maximum tolerated dose

Abstract:

Cognitive decline is increasingly recognized as a side effect of chemotherapy. However, cognitive decline doesn't occur in all patients receiving chemotherapy, and there is variability in the cognitive domains affected (Ahles; JCO,Oct 20, 2012:3675-3686). Safety pharmacogenomics, i.e. using genetic variations to predict response/toxicity, offers an exciting approach to identify the subset of patients most likely to suffer from cognitive decline post chemotherapy. Consequently specific therapeutic interventions can be developed to target this group of patients, and/or alternate chemotherapeutic

Abstract:

Although cigarette smoke has been implicated in a causal relationship with various types of cancers, around 62% of all cancer patients are current smokers, recent quitters, or former smokers. While most patients who are smokers are motivated to quit after cancer diagnosis, 25 -30% of these patients continue to smoke. Furthermore, most quitters relapse after 2-3 years of post-chemotherapy. This represents a major health concern since several clinical studies revealed that perpetuation of smoking in cancer populations attenuates patient's well-being and quality of life.

Yet, there is no available data on the efficacy of Gem/Doce in ES. Methods: A retrospective analysis of the three participating institutions was performed.

First presented as anecdotal patient reports, over the last decade empirical evidence for this cognitive concern has been obtained. Much attention has been focused on post-chemotherapy research, yet little attention has been granted to these same patients’ cognition befor

FOLFOX (5FU/leucovorin/oxaliplatin) is standard first-line therapy for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), with response rates of 50%. Factors limiting the use of oxaliplatin include chemo-resistance and severe dose-related peripheral neuropathy. New interventional strategies are required which can improve disease outcomes by increasing drug efficacy whilst avoiding toxicity. Curcumin is a constituent of turmeric. Mechanisms of chemopreventive action, extensively investigated in vitro and in vivo, provide compelling evidence that curcumin exhibits efficacy in preventing neoplastic conditions
