j***z 发帖数: 105 | 1 It is true that so far molecular biomarkers have not reached people's
expectation in cancer diagnosis.The only example I can think of is BRCA1/2.
Perhaps deep sequencing of circulating tumor DNA will reach clinic someday
and transform the early diagnosis. Cancer research is heavily skewed towards
treatment, which in my view is wrong.
But I think it is unfair to say "癌症分子水平研究对近年的癌症治疗的进展
贡献微小". There are already impressive examples like Gleevec and PD-1/CTLA

BRCA is not used for screening for breast cancer or ovarian cancer in
general population. For breast cancer screening, still mammography for older
than 50 yo. For ovarian cancer, no screening markers. BRCA test is only
used when there is strong family history of breast/ovanrian cancers.
As for treatment, Gleevec is one of the very few molecules that are targeted
for therapy. Compared with the numbers of known molecules in signal

sometimes the mechanism is not exactly known. Gleevec's first paper was
published in cancer research (IF ~8). The compound itself with its target
was published in Structures (IF~2). How about dimethyl fumarate for MS? It
was published in journal I have never heard of. Just imagine that you tell
the editors and reviewers that a glutathione depleting agent is going to
work in MS. They will laugh at you.

B******f 发帖数: 2489 | 9 最近几天看到生物版又有人讨论起来cancer research方向来,不由挠动俺的一点点小
想法。
俺曾经做过几年癌症研究,也发过几篇说的过去的cancer课题论文,应该说对癌症还是
有一点点皮毛的了解的。现就自己一点点局限的认识,跟大家交流几句。因为俺已经离
开基础研究领域了,要是谁从这点交流中得到一点灵感,万一得了炸药奖或将来卖个牛
x的抗癌药,千万要pm俺一下,好替你高兴。
单刀直入说吧,一句话概括:俺觉得现在癌症基础研究方面有个很大的缺陷,即对分化
(differentiation)投入的力量过于薄弱,而主要精力仍然盯在proliferation和
apoptosis上。
怀疑是不是很多纯生物专业毕业的同仁不太了解癌症的病理分级分期。在病理上,定性
一个癌凶猛与否的最重要指标就是differention程度,而proliferation和apoptosis的
markers如Ki67,p53等只在很少数的癌症诊断中使用。一般而言,分化越低,
prognosis越差。

是放疗,化疗;生物制剂如Gleev... 阅读全帖 |

they are just waiting literally. |

人自己都没claim有啥贡献。。。Druker当时是他实验室唯一做这个的,公司找上门的
时候就和Druker联系了。Gleevec确实也是在他到OHSU之后才做到CML里面的。 |

A******y 发帖数: 2041 | 12 That's not the problem. The problem is that the treatment life extension is
marginal. Also, it is for prostate cancer. Also, if you have prostate
cancer, you are more likely died of old age than the cancer. If you can
curve a cancer, you can set crazy amount of money. Look at Gleevec, the
price has doubled over last few years but you have to buy it or you die. |
|
A******y 发帖数: 2041 | 13 I won't cite a site that spells drug name wrong. If you look into those FDA
approved drugs, they are all have a lead molecule (already known or exist)
to work with or already exist in a HTS library (Gleevec). If you found a
new target and there is absolute no lead, you are in trouble. Btw, sometime
understanding the biology of the target will help because the substrate of
the target usually will give you some lead. |

If today's medicine is focusing on tropical diseases, then for chemistry, it
could go to people who are studying tropical diseases such as malaria,
sleeping sickness, or cholera toxin (a lot of x-ray people). If the focus
is on targeted therapy, my prediction still got a shot this year (Gleevec to
Druker et al). |

Prism). The author literally said that if you have to use the program to
tell you if you hypothesis is significant or not; it is likely NOT in the

publication is in Structures (IF ~ 2). It finally made it to Cancer
Research because no one believes that targeting Bcr-Abl is possible and is
the right target.

A******y 发帖数: 2041 | 20 It is about hype...CNS is very good at doing that. Very good for academia,
but poorly for industry. When Gleevec was first discovered, the guy cannot
get it published in CNS at all (including sub-journal) and finally settled
for Cancer Research (its crystal structure with Bcr-Abl was first, it
published in a IF 2 journal).

二位肝癌与骨髓癌的比较

没有多余的时间写些诊疗日志,今天适逢周末,因此利用清晨时间写下这几个案例,除
了给未能来参加跟诊的同学看之外,也给西医师们看一看,请不要再继续闹下去了。
第一位是68岁左右的美国白人,去年他因为得到胃癌,之后被西医切除75%的胃,
接着继续做化疗,直到西医告诉他,其癌症已经扩散开了之后,他才来找我治疗,经过
服用中药一段时间后,他被本地西医证明,已经找不到任何胃癌细胞了。
但是今年六月时,我正好赴大陆山西,他又因为身体不适,而去医院做检查,这次
却被查出又得到肝癌了,当时我不在美国,加上他太太给他许多压力,于是他只好先服
用美国西医开的Gleevec,服用这种魔药后,让他双腿水肿,腹水增加,全身发黯黄,
我返国后,他来诊时,双眼袋已经出现卧蚕状,望诊可见其面色黯黄又黯青,已经是危

a*******e 发帖数: 253 | 28 达人们,您们好。我爸的病经过北大医院的骨髓化验,他们结论是嗜酸粒细胞白血病。
我有一位生物学专家朋友告诉我,慢性粒细胞白血病(chronic myeloid leukemia)美国
已有药治疗,是Novartis公司生产的,叫作Gleevec(named "Glivec" in Europe),主
要成分是imatinib。
请问哪位达人了解这种药?它对嗜酸粒细胞白血病有疗效吗?
即使这药有用,也要美国癌症医生开处方才可买到。

Many Chinese patients join a charity program called "GAPIP" launched by the

It is said the program requires patients to pay for 3-6 months of treatment
at regular price, then life-time free medication afterwards. |
