As pathological response rate and consequently its impact on OS is significantly influenced by treatment choice (e.g., chemotherapy, targeted therapies, and immunotherapy), the FDA used disease-free survival (DFS) or event-free survival (EFS) as approval endpoints for RCC, breast cancer, melanoma...
Asbestos lung cancer is a cancer of the lungs; mesothelioma can affect the lining of the lungs (pleural mesothelioma), abdomen (peritoneal mesothelioma), heart (pericardial mesothelioma), or testicles (testicular mesothelioma).

Localized prostate cancer survival rate.Some92% of all prostate cancers are found when they're in the early stage, called local or regional. "Local" means there's no indication that cancer has spread beyond the prostate. "Regional" means it's spread (metastasized) to nearbylymph nodesor othe...
Nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) has a unique histopathology compared with other head and neck cancers. Individual NPC patients may attain different outcomes. This study aims to build a prognostic system by combining a highly accurate machine learning model (
Out of 50 patients, 11 patients had recurrent tumors after microsurgical resection and the other 39 patients received GKRS alone. The study population was followed clinically and radiographically after GKRS treatment. GKRS on MBTs metastasized from breast cancer showed significant variations in tumor ...

(metastasized). Fibroids, like all benign tumors, lack the capacity to shed cells into the blood and lymph systems and cannot travel to other places in the body and grow. A cancer, on the other hand, can shed cells from the original tumor that can float likedandelionseeds in the wind ...
