Journal ArticleDOI
Overall Survival and Post-Progression Survival in Advanced Breast Cancer: A Review of Recent Randomized Clinical Trials
TL;DR: The frequency and determinants of OS gain in the recent literature and the duration of post-progression survival (PPS) according to treatment type and line were investigated and a statistically significant gain has been reported in about one in five recent phase III trials in advanced breast cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Progression-free survival as surrogate and as true end point: insights from the breast and colorectal cancer literature
TL;DR: Current evidence indicates that PFS is a valid surrogate for OS after first-line treatment with chemotherapy, and whether PFS sufficiently reflects clinical benefit to be considered a true end point in and of itself.
Journal ArticleDOI
Progression-free survival and time to progression as primary end points in advanced breast cancer: often used, sometimes loosely defined
Everardo D. Saad,Artur Katz +1 more
TL;DR: Investigators seem to be frequently using PFS and TTP interchangeably in advanced breast cancer, which may lead to confusion when results of different trials are compared.
Journal ArticleDOI
Primary systemic chemotherapy of invasive lobular carcinoma of the breast
TL;DR: It is noted that insufficient evidence is available to support or withhold use of chemotherapy in patients with invasive lobular carcinoma, and the benefit from systemic chemotherapy for individuals with this form of breast disease is unclear.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pretreatment CA 19-9 level as a prognostic factor in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer treated with gemcitabine
Everardo D. Saad,Marcel Cerqueira César Machado,Dalia Wajsbrot,Roberto Abramoff,Paulo M. Hoff,Jacques Tabacof,Artur Katz,Sergio Daniel Simon,Rene C. Gansl +8 more
TL;DR: Serum levels of CA 19-9 correlate with survival among patients with pancreatic cancer treated with surgery or radiation therapy, and prechemotherapy levels of this marker seem to have strong prognostic significance.
