Journal Article
The study of gemcitabine in combination with other chemotherapeutic agents as an effective treatment for prostate cancer.
Heather J. Muenchen,Martha M. Quigley,Mary Josephine P. Pilat,Lehr Je,Susan K. Brumfield,Michael Mahoney,Kenneth J. Pienta +6 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrated the potent activity of gemcitabine against prostate cancer in the Dunning rat model and suggest the addition of paclitaxel may not aid in this activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
The use of prostate-specific antigen as a surrogate end point in the treatment of patients with hormone refractory prostate cancer
David Smith,Kenneth J. Pienta +1 more
TL;DR: Data suggest that a decline in prostate-specific antigen of at least 50% from baseline may be an important predictor of survival for patients receiving cytotoxic therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cancer cells homing to bone: the significance of chemotaxis and cell adhesion.
Carlton R. Cooper,Robert A. Sikes,Brian E. Nicholson,Yanxi Sun,Kenneth J. Pienta,Russell S. Taichman +5 more
TL;DR: Although the metastatic pattern of some cancers may be explained by anatomy, such as the pattern of efferent venous and lymphatic drainage, anatomy does not account for the metastasis pattern of all cancers.
