1.Prognostic and predictive biomarkers of anti-angiogenic therapy for non-small cell lung cancer
Chinese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2014;(1):83-86
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is currently the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Angiogenesis, the formation of new vasculature, is a complex and strictly regulated process that promotes metastasis and disease progression in lung cancer and other malignancies. Anti-angiogenic therapy is an anti-cancer strategy that targets the new vessels. Most anti-cancer agents used in the clinic include cytotoxic drugs, which target all rapidly dividing cells, resulting in severe adverse effects. These effects in-clude immunosuppression, intestinal problems, and hair loss. By contrast, anti-angiogenic agents theoretically exhibit fewer side effects because angiogenesis rarely occurs in healthy adults, except in the uterine endometrium. Various angiogenic factors may contribute to the regulation of angiogenesis in the individual tumor;thus, the proper selection of patients who may benefit from a specific therapy is important, considering the increasing number of clinically tested agents. This study provides an overview of angiogenic molecules cur-rently being investigated as prognostic and predictive biomarkers in NSCLC. Clinical examples are presented to show the rationales for investigating various biomarkers of pre-clinical studies.

Objective To evaluate CT virtual cystoscopy (CTVC) in the diagnosis of bladder tumor. Methods 22 cases of bladder cancer were examined by spiral CTVC with intravenous injection of 60% urografin or omnipaque.The images obtained were compared with that observed on coventional cystoscopy and operation. Results Based on CTVC images and transverse section images of CT,tumors were classified as 3 catogories:(1)superficial papillary tumor.(2)tubercular mass papillary tumor.(3)infiltrated tumor.Of the 22 cases examined with CTVC,18 were papillomas,11 tubercalar mass papillomas and 1 infiltrated tumor.The smallest was 3.0 mm in diameter.CTVC findings have been similar to those observed on conventional cystoscopy and operation. Conclusions CTVC,a new,noninvasive,safe and useful technique,can correctly demonstrate the details of surface of bladder tumor when the latter was greater than 3.0 mm. It could show the normal or abnormal mucosal folds and the relationship of the tumor to the ureteral orifices and the bladder neck.CTVC my be helpful in the choosing of management,in the clinical staging and diagnosis of bladder tumor.
