PURPOSE
Addition of aprepitant, a neurokinin-1 receptor antagonist (NK1RA), to an ondansetron and dexamethasone regimen improves prevention of chemotherapy-induced nausea/vomiting (CINV),… Expand
Circulating microRNAs as Specific Biomarkers for Breast Cancer Detection
Background We previously showed microRNAs (miRNAs) in plasma are potential biomarkers for colorectal cancer detection. Here, we aimed to develop specific blood-based miRNA assay for breast cancer… Expand
Laboratory markers of tumor burden in nasopharyngeal carcinoma: A comparison of viral load and serologic tests for Epstein‐Barr virus
- H. Fan, J. Nicholls, +4 authors M. Gulley
- Biology, Medicine
- International journal of cancer
- 20 December 2004
Epstein‐Barr virus (EBV) is present within the tumor cells of most cases of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Recent studies suggest that tumor burden is proportional to the level of EBV DNA in blood… Expand
Prevalence of and racial differences in pterygium: a multiethnic population study in Asians.
PURPOSE
To describe the prevalence and risk factors of pterygium in a multiethnic Asian population and to examine racial differences.
DESIGN
Population-based study in Singapore, located 1° north of… Expand
EBV specific antibody‐based and DNA‐based assays in serologic diagnosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma
- K. H. Chan, Y. Gu, +9 authors M. Ng
- Medicine
- International journal of cancer
- 10 July 2003
We assessed 5 EBV specific assays for their capacity to effect serologic diagnosis of suspected NPC. The assays were the immunofluorescent assays, VCA IgA and EA IgA, the enzyme‐linked immunosorbent… Expand

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is endemic in China and Southeast Asia where it is tightly associated with infections by Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). The role of tumor-associated viral antigens in NPC… Expand
Lapatinib plus capecitabine in treating HER2-positive advanced breast cancer: efficacy, safety, and biomarker results from Chinese patients
Overexpression of human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2) in metastatic breast cancer (MBC) is associated with poor prognosis. This single-arm open-label trial (EGF109491; NCT00508274) was… Expand
Pre-emptive and therapeutic adoptive immunotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma: Phenotype and effector function of T cells impact on clinical response
ABSTRACT Adoptive T cell therapy has emerged as a powerful strategy to treat human cancers especially haematological malignancies. Extension of these therapies to solid cancers remains a significant… Expand
LTBP-2 confers pleiotropic suppression and promotes dormancy in a growth factor permissive microenvironment in nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
This study identified LTBP-2 as a pleiotropic tumor suppressor in nasopharyngeal carcinoma, which safeguards against critical malignant behaviors of tumor cells. LTBP-2 expression was significantly… Expand
Lung metastasis alone in nasopharyngeal carcinoma: A relatively favorable prognostic group
The current study was conducted to examine the pattern and the predictive factors of distant metastases (DM) in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) after primary radiotherapy treatment.
