To improve cancer survival rates and prognosis, one of the first steps is to improve our understanding of contributory factors associated with cancer survival. Prior research has suggested that cancer survival is influenced by multiple factors from multiple levels. Most of existing analyses of cancer survival used data from a single source. Nevertheless, there are key challenges in integrating variables...
This paper reports two microfluidic devices for isolating circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in blood samples of pancreatic cancer patients. These devices consist of micromixers or micropillars for enhancing the interactions between tumor cells and capture agents, which are immobilized onto the surfaces of microchannels and microfeatures. Both antibodies and aptamers, as well as their ensemble, have been...
The generalizability (external validity) of clinical trials has long been a concern for both clinical research community as well as the general public. Results of trials that do not represent the target population may not be applicable to the broader patient population. In this study, we used a previously published metric Generalizability Index for Study Traits (GIST) to assess the population representativeness...
