Disease Control Rate at 8 Weeks Predicts Subsequent Survival in Platinum-Treated Extensive Stage Small-Cell Lung Cancer: Results From the Southwest Oncology Group (SWOG) Database

TL;DR: In this large second- and third-line ES-SCLC database, DCR at 8 weeks was found to be a significant predictor of subsequent survival in patients receiving investigational therapy, with critical implications in the selection of surrogate end points in future prospective ES- SCLC trials.
Journal ArticleDOI

A phase II second-line study of pemetrexed (pem) in combination with bevacizumab (bev) in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC): An NCCTG and SWOG study

TL;DR: This phase II study was performed to evaluate the clinical efficacy and toxicity of pem (500 mg/m2 iv) combined with bev (15mg/kg iv) given every 3 weeks in the 2nd-line therapy of patients with multiple sclerosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

SWOG S0709: Randomized Phase II Trial of Erlotinib versus Erlotinib Plus Carboplatin/Paclitaxel in Patients with Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer and Impaired Performance Status as Selected by a Serum Proteomics Assay.

TL;DR: In a proteomics‐enriched cohort of patients with NSCLC and PS2, pharmacodynamically separated erlotinib plus chemotherapy had better efficacy than did erlot inib alone and surpassed the protocol‐specified benchmark of PFS of at least 3 months required for further study.
Journal Article

Identification of F-box/LLR-repeated protein 17 as potential useful biomarker for breast cancer therapy.

TL;DR: Validation of this protein using real-time RT-PCR indicates the F-box protein 17 (FBXL17) can serve as a therapeutic target and surrogate marker for breast cancer therapy.
