Nonmelanoma skin cancer is the most common cancer in humans, comprising mainly basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). BCC proliferation is highly dependent on the Hedgehog signaling pathway. We aimed to investigate a panel of anticancer drugs with known activity against skin c ...

Liposomal irinotecan (irinotecan liposome injection, nal-IRI), a liposomal formulation of irinotecan, is designed for extended circulation relative to irinotecan and for exploiting discontinuous tumor vasculature for enhanced drug delivery to tumors. Following tumor deposition, nal-IRI is taken up b ...
Promising clinical efficacy has been observed with receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) particularly in lung and gastric cancers with mutations or amplifications in the targeted receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). However, the efficacy and the duration of the response to these inhibitors are lim ...
N1-guanyl-1,7-diaminoheptane (GC7), a deoxyhypusine synthase inhibitor, has been shown to exert antiproliferation effects in many solid tumors by regulating eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5a2 (eif5a-2). However, little is known about the role of GC7 and eif5a-2 in drug resistance in acute ...

Polymer prodrugs can considerably improve the treatment of tumors with multidrug resistance, often caused by overexpression of P-glycoprotein (P-gp). Here, we present the effect of the N-(2-hydroxypropyl) methacrylamide-based polymer conjugate with P-gp inhibitor ritonavir (RIT) on the increase of f ...
A close correlation between early tumor shrinkage (ETS) and overall survival (OS) has been shown in antiepidermal growth factor receptor antibody-based chemotherapies for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), but the clinical impact of ETS in bevacizumab-based chemotherapy has not been adequately cla ...
Cancer cells have an increased requirement for iron than normal cells, and iron chelators are under active consideration for cancer treatment. The metal-sequestering potential and antiproliferative mechanisms of a novel hydroxyphenyl hydrazone derivate YCL0426 were investigated here. Antiproliferati ...
The Hippo pathway has generated considerable interest in recent years because of its involvement in several key hallmarks of cancer progression and metastasis. Research on the Hippo signaling pathway in cancer has been used to determine the activity of yes-associated protein (YAP) in tumorigenesis a ...

This prospective, noninterventional study is the first phase IV trial designed to evaluate trabectedin in patients with advanced soft tissue sarcoma in real-life clinical practice across Europe. To be included in the study, patients must have received more than or equal to one cycle of trabectedin a ...

Gallic acid (GA) possesses potential antitumoral activity on different types of malignancies. In this study, we aimed to explore the antitumoral effects of GA on triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells, the breast cancer cells showing resistance to hormonal therapy or HER2 receptor targeting ther ...
