Prognostic role of KRAS and BRAF in stage II and III resected colon cancer: results of the translational study on the PETACC-3, EORTC 40993, SAKK 60-00 trial.
Arnaud Roth,Sabine Tejpar,Mauro Delorenzi,Pu Yan,Roberto Fiocca,Dirk Klingbiel,Daniel Dietrich,Bart Biesmans,György Bodoky,Carlo Barone,Enrique Aranda,Bernard Nordlinger,Laura Cisar,Roberto Labianca,David Cunningham,Eric Van Cutsem,Fred T. Bosman +16 more
TL;DR: In stage II-III colon cancer, the KRAS mutation status does not have major prognostic value, but BRAF is prognostic for OS in MS-L/S tumors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Percutaneous US-guided radio-frequency tissue ablation of liver metastases: treatment and follow-up in 16 patients.
Luigi Solbiati,Tiziana Ierace,S N Goldberg,Sandro Sironi,T. Livraghi,Roberto Fiocca,G. Servadio,G Rizzatto,Peter R. Mueller,A. Del Maschio,G S Gazelle +10 more
TL;DR: RF ablation appears to be a simple, safe, and potentially effective treatment for selected patients with liver metastases and may become a less invasive alternative to surgical therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gastro-oesophageal reflux symptoms, oesophagitis and Barrett’s oesophagus in the general population: the Loiano–Monghidoro study
Rocco Maurizio Zagari,Lorenzo Fuccio,Mari-Ann Wallander,Saga Johansson,Roberto Fiocca,S. Casanova,Bahman Farahmand,Christopher C Winchester,Enrico Roda,Franco Bazzoli +9 more
TL;DR: GORD is common in Italy, but the prevalence of Barrett’s oesophagus in the community is lower than has been reported in selected populations, and both frequent and infrequent reflux symptoms are associated with an increased risk of Oesophagitis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Laparoscopic antireflux surgery vs esomeprazole treatment for chronic GERD: the LOTUS randomized clinical trial.
Jean-Paul Galmiche,Jan Gunnar Hatlebakk,Stephen Attwood,Christian Ell,Roberto Fiocca,Stefan Eklund,Göran Långström,Tore Lind,Lars Lundell +8 more
TL;DR: This multicenter clinical trial demonstrated that with contemporary antireflux therapy for GERD, either by drug-induced acid suppression with esomeprazole or by LARS, most patients achieve and remain in remission at 5 years.
Journal ArticleDOI

Massimo Rugge,Pelayo Correa,Michael F. Dixon,Roberto Fiocca,Takanori Hattori,Juan Lechago,Gioacchino Leandro,A. B. Price,Pentti Sipponen,Enrico Solcia,Hidemi Watanabe,Robert M. Genta +11 more
TL;DR: An international group of pathologists pursued the following aims: to generate an acceptable definition and a simple reproducible classification of gastric atrophy and to develop guidelines for the recognition of atrophy useful for increasing agreement among observers.
