Abstract:
Abstract Abstract 2891 The proteasome inhibitor, bortezomib, is a powerful agent for the treatment of Multiple Myeloma (MM). However, many patients fail to achieve an optimal response. To identify biomarkers that could predict an optimal response to bortezomib, we assessed the role of the noncanonical NF-kB pathway in the response to bortezomib. Our in vitro studies identified that NF-kB2/p100 protein levels correlated directly with bortezomib sensitivity. Based on this finding, we measured at diagnosis the mRNA levels of different NF-kB2 regions in 64 patients schedule to receive bortezomib-b

Introduction : The standard method for evaluating response in patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is T1-weighted contrast-enhanced brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, brain MRI has limitations in distinguishing between complete response (CR), radiologically unconfirmed complete response (CRu), and partial response (PR) when evaluating treatment responses to predict clinical outcomes. We have previously reported on the role of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose brain positron emission tomography/computed tomography ([18F]FDG brain PET/CT) in prognostication and respon

Abstract:
High rearing densities (kg of fish per rearing unit volume) can impact fish health and growth. This study evaluated the stress levels (as indicated by blood glucose) and growth of juvenile Shasta strain rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) reared at three densities in 1.8-m diameter circular tanks for 111 days. Initial and final rearing densities for each treatment were: low (4.48 and 47.56 kg/m3), medium (5.96 and 60.60 kg/m3), and high (7.49 and 72.42 kg/m3). Throughout the experiment, blood glucose levels from individual fish were not significantly different among the three density treatment

PURPOSE: To compare the efficacy and tolerability of fulvestrant (formerly ICI 182,780) with anastrozole in the treatment of advanced breast cancer in patients whose disease progresses on prior endocrine treatment. PATIENTS AND METHODS: In this double-blind, double-dummy, parallel-group study, postmenopausal patients were randomized to receive either an intramuscular injection of fulvestrant 250 mg once monthly or a daily oral dose of anastrozole 1 mg. The primary end point was time to progression (TTP). Secondary end points included objective response (OR) rate, duration of response (DOR), an

Abstract:
SYNOPSISThe schizophrenic patient's early psychological response to neuroleptic treatment has been demonstrated to be a significant predictor of treatment response. The validity of the construct of subjective response is evaluated by comparison of two measures. Fifty-five recently admitted and unmedicated schizophrenic patients were randomly allocated to chlorpromazine or haloperidol. Subjective responses at 24 and 48 hours as assessed by two different scales, the Van Putten & May scale and the self-administered Drug Attitude Inventory, were strongly correlated with outcome at three weeks.

In this report, we examined baseline affective response to binge eating as a predictor of binge-eating disorder (BED) treatment outcome. Baseline affective response was defined as (a) each individual’s average net change (i.e., area under the curve [AUC]) of positive affect (PA) or negative affect (NA) before and after binge-eating episodes and (b) slope of PA or NA after binge eating across 7 days of ecological momentary assessment. Adults with BED completed integrative cognitive-affective therapy (ICAT-BED) or cognitive behavioral therapy-guided self-help (CBT-gsh). Individuals with greater

Abstract:
The only beneficial agent for the treatment of chronic delta hepatitis (CDH) is interferon (IFN). However, there is no consensus on the best dosage or duration of IFN therapy. As ribavirin (RBV) increases the sustained response when added to IFN in chronic hepatitis C, probably because of its immunomodulatory effect, we aimed to investigate the efficacy of 2-year IFN treatment and whether RBV had any additive effect to IFN in CDH. Methods Patients ( n=31) with CDH were randomized with a 1:2 ratio as 10 patients (3 females/7 males, age 39 ±9) receiving IFN monotherapy (9 MU IFN-α2a three times

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the predictive value of the clinical response to neoadjuvant therapy on the basis of pathological results obtained on rectal cancer patients treated by chemoradiotherapy and su
