Background
The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of various surgical, hormonal, and lifestyle factors on memory and attention in women with a BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation.
Methods
BRCA mutation carriers enrolled in a longitudinal study were invited to complete an online brain health assessment tool designed to screen for cognitive deficits. Four measures of memory and executive attention...
Background
Targeting vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) alone does not improve overall survival (OS) in recurrent glioblastoma (rGBM). The angiopoiein (Ang)–TIE2 system may play a role in tumor survival under VEGF inhibition. We conducted a phase 2, double‐blinded, placebo‐controlled trial of bevacizumab plus trebananib (a novel Fc fusion protein that sequesters Ang1/Ang2) over bevacizumab...
Background
Black women are more likely to be diagnosed at a later stage of breast cancer in part due to barriers to timely screening mammography, resulting in poorer mortality and survival outcomes. Patient navigation that helps to overcome barriers to the early detection of breast cancer is an effective intervention for reducing breast cancer disparity. However, the ability to recognize and seek...
BACKGROUND
Prostate cancer patients diagnosed with low‐ and intermediate‐risk disease have several treatment options. Decisional regret after treatment is a concern, especially when poor oncologic outcomes or declines in health‐related quality of life (HRQoL) occur. This study assessed determinants of longitudinal decisional regret in prostate cancer patients attending a multidisciplinary clinic...
BACKGROUNDIn the United States, the burden of human papillomavirus (HPV)‐associated cancers varies by racial/ethnic group. HPV vaccination may provide opportunities for primary prevention of these cancers. Herein, the authors projected changes in HPV‐associated cancer burden among racial/ethnic groups under various coverage assumptions with the available first‐generation and second‐generation HPV...
Multiple advisory groups now recommend that high‐risk smokers be screened for lung cancer by low‐dose computed tomography. Given that the development of lung cancer screening programs will face many of the same issues that have challenged other cancer screening programs, the National Cancer Institute‐funded Population‐based Research Optimizing Screening through Personalized Regimens (PROSPR) consortium...
BACKGROUNDBrentuximab vedotin (BV) is an anti‐CD30 monoclonal antibody‐drug conjugate that was approved in 2011 for the treatment of patients with anaplastic large cell and Hodgkin lymphomas. The product label indicates that 3 patients who were treated with BV developed progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), a frequently fatal JC virus‐induced central nervous system infection. Prior immunosuppressive...
BACKGROUNDThe purpose of this study was to evaluate preoperative treatment with full‐dose gemcitabine, oxaliplatin, and radiation therapy (RT) in patients with localized pancreatic cancer.
METHODSEligibility included confirmation of adenocarcinoma, resectable or borderline resectable disease, a performance status ≤2, and adequate organ function. Treatment consisted of two 28‐day cycles of gemcitabine...
PURPOSE:Biomarkers that predict response or toxicity to antiangiogenic therapy are sought to favorably inform the risk/benefit ratio. This study evaluated the association of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and VEGF receptor 2 (VEGFR2) genetic polymorphisms with the development of hypertension (HTN) and clinical outcome in metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (MCCRCC) patients treated...
