TITLE: Requirements for human antibody cocktails for oncology.
PUBDATE: 20051001
Cancer patients receiving antibodies as monotherapy have benefited from these treatments. However, significant improvements can be made that should make the therapy more effective. Applying lessons learned from the natural oligoclonal antibody response that cancer patients mount to their own tumours suggests that cocktails of monoclonal antibodies could be formulated, which may be more effective in treating cancers. The next phase of antibody immunotherapy will include cocktails of monoclonal antibodies. Various requirements for human antibody cocktails are discussed, as well as potential limitations of this approach.

TITLE: [Lung cancer with polyarthropathy due to parvovirus B19: report of a case]
PUBDATE: 20051201
We reported a case of lung cancer with polyarthropathy induced by human parvovirus B19. A 60-year-old female with lung cancer was admitted to our hospital with polyarthropathy similar to rheumatoid arthritis. Although the abnormal accumulation of 99mTc-MDP in the bone scan film and rheumatoid factor positive were detected before operation, we diagnosed polyarthropathy induced by parvovirus B19 through the detection of parvovirus B19 IgM and B19 DNA. The joint pain gradually improved after surgical treatment for lung cancer.

PUBDATE: 20051001
The development of novel 'new generation' vaccine systems that is based on proteins, peptides or DNA is of great current interest. However, due to the lower efficiencies of these new generation vaccines, they are seldomly used alone. Rather, their formulations often contain adjuvants, either to enhance the immune responses or to reduce dosing. The present chapter will provide a brief overview of the recent advances in peptide-based cancer vaccine adjuvants, focusing mainly on Liposome-Protamine-DNA (LPD) nanoparticle-mediated antigen delivery.

The mutual goal of the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) and the American Cancer Society partnership is to provide patients and the generalpublic with state of the art cancer treatment information in understandable language. This treatment information is based on the professional guidelines developed by the NCCN. It is intended to assist patients in a discussion with their doctor about the treatment that is best for their specific situation. Part I of these guidelines addressed melanoma risk factors, prevention, diagnosis, stages, prevention, and clinical trials (Vol. 17, No 2, pp. 119-131). Part II describes decision trees for evaluation and treatment.

The isolation of this organism should prompt investigation for colorectal neoplasm, which may be present but asymptomatic, without metastases, and therefore at a curative stage.

Esophageal cancers are highly lethal neoplasms which are generally refractory to conventional multidisciplinary interventions. Recent elucidation of the mechanisms of esophageal carcinogenesis, as well as preclinical studies utilizing chromatin remodeling agents and inhibitors of oncogene signaling in conjunction with conventional chemotherapeutic agents provide new opportunities for the development of potentially efficacious molecular targeted therapies for these malignancies.

Essiac is a popular complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) that is utilized by many cancer patients in North America.

We describe here the case of a 64-year-old man whose hormone-refractory prostate cancer responded well to Essiac tea.

TITLE: Senescent cells, tumor suppression, and organismal aging: good citizens, bad neighbors.
PUBDATE: 20050201
Cells from organisms with renewable tissues can permanently withdraw from the cell cycle in response to diverse stress, including dysfunctional telomeres, DNA damage, strong mitogenic signals, and disrupted chromatin. This response, termed cellular senescence, is controlled by the p53 and RB tumor suppressor proteins and constitutes a potent anticancer mechanism. Nonetheless, senescent cells acquire phenotypic changes that may contribute to aging and certain age-related diseases, including late-life cancer. Thus, the senescence response may be antagonistically pleiotropic, promoting early-life survival by curtailing the development of cancer but eventually limiting longevity as dysfunctional senescent cells accumulate.

TITLE: Current management of anal canal cancer.
PUBDATE: 20051201
Combined-modality therapy consisting of radiation therapy and 5-fluorouracil plus mitomycin remains the standard treatment for localized anal canal cancer, permitting preservation of organ function and achieving high response and survival rates. Current trials are evaluating the ability to deliver higher doses of radiation therapy over shorter intervals. Currently, the most common indication for radical surgery is failure of chemoradiation. Metastatic disease is less responsive to chemoradiation treatment. Neoadjuvant and adjuvant strategies are being evaluated, and additional drugs including capecitabine, irinotecan, and oxaliplatin are being assessed in treatment of localized and advanced disease.

In the 40 years since the publication of the article by Harris (Eur J Cancer 1965, 1, 183-188), considerable progress has been made towards the understanding of the contribution of infectious agents to the development of tumours. It is estimated that 15-20% of human malignancies may have an infectious aetiology. This article attempts to summarise the current level of our knowledge with respect to tumour-associated viruses, and to place this in the context of the earlier article by Harris (Eur J Cancer 1965, 1, 183-188).

Three new diterpenoids and one known diterpenoid have been isolated from a sea anemone of the order Actiniara, and the structures of the new compounds, actiniarins A-C (1-3) were established on the basis of extensive 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic data interpretation. Compound 1 has a six-membered ring hemiacetal ring, and the equilibrium of this ring is discussed. All the isolates were evaluated for their inhibition of Cdc25B and for cytotoxicity against the A2780 ovarian cancer cell line.

Developing small molecule inhibitors of oncoproteins, which are activated in tumor cells, is a newly popular strategy for cancer-related drug discovery. The complementary strategy, developing small molecules that restore the function of missing tumor suppressors, is much more difficult to realize. However, in this issue of Cancer Cell, Kau et al. report the discovery of small molecules that reverse some cellular consequences of the loss of the tumor suppressor PTEN.

TITLE: Perinatal selenium exposure decreases spontaneous liver tumorogenesis in CBA mice.
PUBDATE: 20020501
This study was designed to investigate the influence of neonatal selenium (an anticarcinogenic agent) exposure on spontaneous liver tumor formation in adult mice. Pregnant CBA mice were administered selenium during the last week of pregnancy and for ten days following parturition. Selenium significantly reduced the incidence of spontaneous hepatomas in adult male progeny, while having no effect on the lower hepatoma incidence in adult females. The data indicate that neonatal selenium alters hepatoma incidence in a sex-dependent manner. This study represents the model of neonatal cancer prevention.
