Evaluation of [1,2]oxazolo[5,4-e]isoindoles in lymphoma cells
2020
Anti-tubulin agents are important chemotherapeutics. Combretastatin A-4 (CA-4) emerged as lead compound for the design of new tubulin-binding agents. Its analogues 4,5-diarylisoxazoles, containing the [1,2]oxazole ring as linker of two aryl moieties, displayed higher antitubulin activity than CA-4. [1,2]oxazolo[5,4-e]isoindoles also gave excellent results reducing cell growth of NCI-60 tumor cell lines and diffuse malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (DMPM) cells. Selected derivatives showed in vivo antitumor activity at well-tolerated doses in a DMPM xenograft model. [1,2]oxazolo[5,4-e]isoindoles were screened in four lymphoma histotypes: germinal center B-cell and activated diffuse large B c…
Prognostic Role of Mismatch Repair Status, Histotype and High-Risk Pathologic Features in Stage II Small Bowel Adenocarcinomas
2020
Abstract Background Small bowel adenocarcinoma is a relatively rare cancer, often diagnosed in an advanced stage. In localized and resectable disease, surgery alone or in combination with adjuvant chemotherapy is the mainstay of treatment. In the recently published National Comprehensive Cancer Network Clinical Practice guidelines, criteria for selecting patients with stage II small bowel adenocarcinoma to receive adjuvant chemotherapy are provided, and they are mainly extrapolated from studies on colorectal cancer. Patients and Methods In the present study, we aimed to verify whether mismatch repair deficiency phenotype, high-risk pathologic features (including T4, positive resection margi…
