Project description:Interventions: Group 1: Patients with Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors undergoing tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatment will be assessed regarding progression-free survival and overall survival within 2 years using the standard response criteria, in particular Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors, the WHO criteria for response, the tumor lesion volume as well as tumor density (according to Choi).
Group 2: Patients with Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors undergoing tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatment will be assessed regarding progression-free survival and overall survival within 2 years using the response criteria, in particular tumor lesion iodine uptake.
Primary outcome(s): Progression-free survival within 2 years.
Study Design: Allocation: Non-randomized controlled study; Masking: Open (masking not used); Control: active; Assignment: parallel; Study design purpose: treatment
Project description:Here we describe a bead-based method capable of profiling tyrosine kinase phosphorylations in a multiplexed, high-throughput and low-cost manner. This approach allows for the discovery of tyrosine kinase-activating events, even when the DNA sequence is wild-type. In an effort to pilot the establishment of a tyrosine kinase activation catalog, we profiled tyrosine phosphorylation levels of 62 tyrosine kinases in 130 human cancer lines, and followed-up on the frequent SRC phosphorylation in glioblastoma. Keywords: quantitative measurements of tyrosine phosphorylation levels on tyrosine kinases Total protein lysates were collected from 130 cancer cell lines. Tyrosine phosphorylation levels on 62 tyrosine kinases were measured with the bead assay.
Project description:Phase II randomized trial to investigate whether supplementation of zinc decreases the incidence of HFSR that occurs after treatment of tyrosine kinase inhibitor, regorafenib.

Project description:The Philadelphia chromosome (Ph) encodes the oncogenic BCR-ABL1 tyrosine kinase, which is present in almost every patient with chronic myeloid leukemia. In this study, the tyrosine kinase inhibitor Imatinib was used for pharmacological inhibition of BCR-ABL1. Gene expression profiles of CML cell lines were analyzed in response to Imatinib treatment.
Project description:The aim of this study was to investigate the inhibitory effect of TSU68, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2), platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta (PDGFRβ) and fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1), on colon cancer liver metastasis and to test the hypothesis that TSU68 modulates the microenvironment in the liver before the formation of metastasis.
Project description:The Philadelphia chromosome (Ph) encodes the oncogenic BCR-ABL1 tyrosine kinase, which defines a subset of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) with a particularly unfavorable prognosis. In this study, the tyrosine kinase inhibitor imatinib was used for pharmacological inhibition of BCR-ABL1. Gene expression profiles of Ph+ ALL cell lines were analyzed in response to imatinib treatment.
