Abstract

Recent studies have shown that c-Met is an important signal in the development of colorectal cancer, but the prognostic value of c-Met remains unclear. We aimed to analyze the prognostic effect of c-Met in colorectal cancer through a systematic review and meta-analysis. Through database searches, we identified six articles describing how c-Met status affects colorectal cancer prognosis. A meta-analysis was performed to investigate the relationship between the hazard ratio and survival. The available outcome data from six articles were examined. A meta-analysis of the HR and the 95 % confidence interval (CI) indicated a significantly poor overall survival and disease-free survival in patients with high expression levels of c-Met. The subgroup analysis showed that the prognostic effect of the c-Met level was similar in different methods and was not associated with disease stages. High c-Met expression levels could predict a poor prognosis in colorectal cancer patients. The c-Met status could be used to evaluate the prognosis in clinical patients.

Mehr Lebenszeit mit Abemaciclib bei fortgeschrittenem Brustkrebs?

24.05.2024 Mammakarzinom Nachrichten

In der MONARCHE-3-Studie lebten Frauen mit fortgeschrittenem Hormonrezeptor-positivem, HER2-negativem Brustkrebs länger, wenn sie zusätzlich zu einem nicht steroidalen Aromatasehemmer mit Abemaciclib behandelt wurden; allerdings verfehlte der numerische Zugewinn die statistische Signifikanz.

ADT zur Radiatio nach Prostatektomie: Wenn, dann wohl länger

24.05.2024 Prostatakarzinom Nachrichten

Welchen Nutzen es trägt, wenn die Strahlentherapie nach radikaler Prostatektomie um eine Androgendeprivation ergänzt wird, hat die RADICALS-HD-Studie untersucht. Nun liegen die Ergebnisse vor. Sie sprechen für länger dauernden Hormonentzug.

Das sind die führenden Symptome junger Darmkrebspatienten

Darmkrebserkrankungen in jüngeren Jahren sind ein zunehmendes Problem, das häufig längere Zeit übersehen wird, gerade weil die Patienten noch nicht alt sind. Welche Anzeichen Ärzte stutzig machen sollten, hat eine Metaanalyse herausgearbeitet.

„Überwältigende“ Evidenz für Tripeltherapie beim metastasierten Prostata-Ca.

22.05.2024 Prostatakarzinom Nachrichten

Patienten mit metastasiertem hormonsensitivem Prostatakarzinom sollten nicht mehr mit einer alleinigen Androgendeprivationstherapie (ADT) behandelt werden, mahnt ein US-Team nach Sichtung der aktuellen Datenlage. Mit einer Tripeltherapie haben die Betroffenen offenbar die besten Überlebenschancen.
