Targeted Therapies for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

TLDR
Identification of oncogenes that mediate tumor progression, and trials that monitor their products as biomarkers, might lead to personalized therapy; reagents that interfere with signaling pathways required for HCC progression might be used to treat selected populations, and thereby maximize the efficacy and cost benefit.

Sorafenib in combination with transarterial chemoembolization improves the survival of patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma: a propensity score matching study.

TL;DR: This prospective non‐randomized controlled trial aimed to compare the efficacy of sorafenib in combination with transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) vs TACE alone for the treatment of patients with unresectable intermediate or advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.

lncRNA MIAT promotes proliferation and invasion of HCC cells via sponging miR-214.

TL;DR: This is the first research showing long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) myocardial infarction-associated transcript (MIAT) to have a regulatory effect on hepatocellular carcinoma, and downregulation of MIAT markedly suppressed the tumor growth of HCC via releasing miR-214.

Efficacy of annexin A3 blockade in sensitizing hepatocellular carcinoma to sorafenib and regorafenib.

TL;DR: This study represents the most extensive pre-clinical characterization of anti-ANXA3 monoclonal antibodies for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma to date and results support the clinical trial development ofAnti-ANxA3 antibodies in combination with sorafenib/regorafenIB represents a novel therapeutic strategy for HCC treatment.

New Guidelines to Evaluate the Response to Treatment in Solid Tumors

TL;DR: A model by which a combined assessment of all existing lesions, characterized by target lesions and nontarget lesions, is used to extrapolate an overall response to treatment is proposed, which is largely validated by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Group and integrated into the present guidelines.

Cancer Statistics, 2009

TL;DR: The most recent data on cancer incidence, mortality, and survival from the American Cancer Society (ACS) is presented in this paper, where the authors compare the three major cancer sites in men (lung, prostate, and colon and rectum [colorectum]) and in two major cancers sites in women (breast and colorectal) over a 15-year period.
