In the United States, darbepoetin alfa (Aranesp) is often used to treat patients with chemotherapy-induced anemia using weekly or every-2-week administration schedules. Europe, either in every-3-week dosing. The schedule can be synchronized many chemotherapy regimens, resulting fewer visits and reducing burden patients, but safety efficacy of this regimen have not been clear.A randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, active-controlled phase 3 trial was performed 110 European centers. Eligible...
Abstract Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the leading causes cancer related death worldwide. Liver resection or transplantation curative for a subset patients with localized disease, but treatments advanced disease are generally toxic and ineffective. Aberrant expression vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has been implicated in progression HCC represents valid target anticancer therapy. Bevacizumab, humanized anti‐VEGF monoclonal antibody, currently being evaluated...
