Journal ArticleDOI

Development of Hong Kong Liver Cancer Staging System With Treatment Stratification for Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma

TL;DR: The Hong Kong Liver Cancer (HKLC) classification had significantly better ability than the BCLC system to distinguish between patients with specific overall survival times and identified subsets of BCLCs intermediate- and advanced-stage patients for more aggressive treatments than what were recommended by the B CLC system, which improved survival outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Yes-associated protein is an independent prognostic marker in hepatocellular carcinoma.

TL;DR: Investigation of the clinical significance of YAP in HCC and its prognostic values in predicting survival and tumor recurrence found it to be related to hepatocarcinogenesis.
Journal Article

GM2-KLH Conjugate Vaccine: Increased Immunogenicity in Melanoma Patients after Administration with Immunological Adjuvant QS-21

TL;DR: The finding that QS-21 significantly increased the immunogenicity of GM2-KLH suggests that it may do the same for other conjugate vaccines, many of which are currently used without adjuvant.
Journal ArticleDOI

Paclitaxel as second and subsequent therapy for metastatic breast cancer: activity independent of prior anthracycline response.

TL;DR: The lack of impact of prior doxorubicin therapy on the likelihood of subsequent response to paclitaxel suggests an important role for this agent in the treatment of refractory metastatic breast cancer.
Journal Article

Vaccination of high-risk breast cancer patients with mucin-1 (MUC1) keyhole limpet hemocyanin conjugate plus QS-21.

TL;DR: This M UC1-KLH conjugate plus QS-21 was immunogenic and well tolerated in breast cancer patients and additional trials are ongoing to determine the optimal MUC1 peptide for use in larger clinical trials.
