Advances in targeted therapies for hepatocellular carcinoma in the genomic era

TL;DR: The authors summarize the molecular concepts of progression, discuss the potential reasons for clinical trial failure and propose new concepts of drug development, which might lead to clinical implementation of emerging targeted agents.
Journal ArticleDOI

The significance of intertumor and intratumor heterogeneity in liver cancer.

TL;DR: Genomic analyses of primary liver cancer samples reveal a complex mutational landscape with vast intertumor and intratumor heterogeneity, which includes stemness and microenvironmental causes of the functional heterogeneity of the primary liver cancers ecosystem.
Journal ArticleDOI

The DEN and CCl4‐Induced Mouse Model of Fibrosis and Inflammation‐Associated Hepatocellular Carcinoma

TL;DR: A dramatic potentiation of liver tumor incidence is observed following administration of DEN and CCl4, with100% of mice developing liver tumors at 5 months of age, and this model can be employed for studying the molecular mechanisms of fibrogenesis and HCC development, and in cancer hazard/chemotherapy testing of drug candidates.

Machine learning approaches to analyze histological images of tissues from radical prostatectomies

TL;DR: A machine learning approach comprising of a support vector machine (SVM) followed by a random forest (RF) classifier to digitally stratify prostate tissue into ST, BN and PCa areas has the potential to aid in clinical studies in which the quantification of tumor content is necessary to prognosticate the course of the disease.

Estimates of worldwide burden of cancer in 2008: GLOBOCAN 2008.

TL;DR: The results for 20 world regions are presented, summarizing the global patterns for the eight most common cancers, and striking differences in the patterns of cancer from region to region are observed.

Use of Chemotherapy plus a Monoclonal Antibody against HER2 for Metastatic Breast Cancer That Overexpresses HER2

TL;DR: The addition of trastuzumab to chemotherapy was associated with a longer time to disease progression, a higher rate of objective response, a longer duration of response, and a lower rate of death at 1 year.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immunity, Inflammation, and Cancer

TL;DR: The principal mechanisms that govern the effects of inflammation and immunity on tumor development are outlined and attractive new targets for cancer therapy and prevention are discussed.
