Monoclonal antibodies in gastrointestinal cancers

2013

Introduction: Among gastrointestinal cancers, colorectal and gastric neoplasms are the most frequent. The development of new targeted drugs improved the efficacy of systemic therapy in advanced stages of those malignancies. Areas covered: This review highlights the main biological processes implicated in gastrointestinal cancer development and progression, such as angiogenesis and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling pathway. On these bases, anti-EGFR and anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) monoclonal antibodies in colorectal and gastric cancer are discussed. Data about further monoclonal antibodies in development are also reported. Expert opinion: The use of monoclo…

Tumor del estroma gastrointestinal y schwannoma gástricos: una presentación inusual en un paciente sin neurofibromatosis

2020

The majority of gastric neoplasms are of epithelial type. Stromal tumours are the next most frequent and are most commonly gastrointestinal stromal tumours, followed by leiomyoma and schwannoma. We present an exceptional case of a patient with a gastrointestinal stromal tumour with suspicion of residual gastric disease, which was diagnosed post-operatively as a schwannoma.
