Body composition as an independent determinant of 5-fluorouracil-based chemotherapy toxicity.

TL;DR: Low LBM is a significant predictor of toxicity in female patients administered 5-FU using the convention of dosing per unit of body surface area, and it is concluded that variation in toxicity between females and males may be partially explained by this feature of body composition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ramucirumab (IMC-1121B): a novel attack on angiogenesis.

Journal ArticleDOI
