Cancer chemotherapy: insights into cellular and tumor microenvironmental mechanisms of action

TL;DR: The literature regarding the known mechanisms of action of cytotoxic chemotherapy agents and the determinants of response to chemotherapy from the level of individual cells to the composition of the tumor microenvironment are reviewed and a model for a chemotherapy sensitive tumor micro environment is proposed.

Niraparib Maintenance Therapy in Platinum-Sensitive, Recurrent Ovarian Cancer

TL;DR: Among patients with platinum-sensitive, recurrent ovarian cancer, the median duration of progression-free survival was significantly longer amongThose receiving niraparib than among those receiving placebo, regardless of the presence or absence of gBRCA mutations or HRD status, with moderate bone marrow toxicity.
