Confidence intervals for the difference of median failure times applied to censored tumor growth delay data.

Statistics in biopharmaceutical research

Wu J.
PMID: 28966720
Stat Biopharm Res. 2011;3(3):488-496. doi: 10.1198/sbr.2011.10020. Epub 2012 Jan 24.

In tumor xenograft experiments, tumor response to the anti-cancer agents is often assessed by tumor growth delay, the difference in median tumor quadrupling times between treatment and control. Tumor quadrupling time is often subjected to right censoring because death...

Single-Arm Phase II Survival Trial Design Under the Proportional Hazards Model.

Statistics in biopharmaceutical research

Wu J.
PMID: 28966721
Stat Biopharm Res. 2017;9(1):25-34. doi: 10.1080/19466315.2016.1174147. Epub 2017 Mar 02.

For designing single-arm phase II trials with time-to-event endpoints, a sample size formula is derived for the modified one-sample log-rank test under the proportional hazards model. The derived formula enables new methods for designing trials that allow a flexible...

Use of Fungal Diagnostics and Therapy in Pediatric Cancer Patients in Resource-Limited Settings.

Current clinical microbiology reports

Mukkada S, Kirby J, Apiwattanakul N, Hayden RT, Caniza MA.
PMID: 27672551
Curr Clin Microbiol Rep. 2016 Sep;3(3):120-131. doi: 10.1007/s40588-016-0038-2. Epub 2016 Apr 18.

Fungal diseases are an important cause of mortality in immunocompromised hosts, and their incidence in pediatric cancer patients in low- to middle-income countries is underestimated. In this review, we present relevant, up-to-date information about the most common opportunistic and...

Double small bowel intussusception complicating bilateral partial nephrectomies.

Journal of pediatric surgery case reports

Wahid FN, Malkan AD, McCarville MB, Davidoff AM.
PMID: 24795858
J Pediatr Surg Case Rep. 2014 Jan;2(1):30-32. doi: 10.1016/j.epsc.2013.12.003.

An 11.5-month-old male, diagnosed with bilateral Wilms tumor at 10 months of age, received 6 weeks of chemotherapy and subsequently underwent bilateral partial nephrectomies. On postoperative day 5, he had crampy abdominal pain and bilious vomiting. Abdominal ultrasound confirmed...

Generation of a lentiviral vector producer cell clone for human Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome gene therapy.

Molecular therapy. Methods & clinical development

Wielgosz MM, Kim YS, Carney GG, Zhan J, Reddivari M, Coop T, Heath RJ, Brown SA, Nienhuis AW.
PMID: 26052531
Mol Ther Methods Clin Dev. 2015 Jan 21;2:14063. doi: 10.1038/mtm.2014.63. eCollection 2015.

We have developed a producer cell line that generates lentiviral vector particles of high titer. The vector encodes the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) protein. An insulator element has been added to the long terminal repeats of the integrated vector to...

Regulated lysosomal exocytosis mediates cancer progression.

Science advances

Machado E, White-Gilbertson S, van de Vlekkert D, Janke L, Moshiach S, Campos Y, Finkelstein D, Gomero E, Mosca R, Qiu X, Morton CL, Annunziata I, d'Azzo A.
PMID: 26824057
Sci Adv. 2015 Dec 18;1(11):e1500603. doi: 10.1126/sciadv.1500603. eCollection 2015 Dec.

Understanding how tumor cells transition to an invasive and drug-resistant phenotype is central to cancer biology, but the mechanisms underlying this transition remain unclear. We show that sarcomas gain these malignant traits by inducing lysosomal exocytosis, a ubiquitous physiological...

A Spline-Based Lack-Of-Fit Test for Independent Variable Effect in Poisson Regression.

Journal of modern applied statistical methods : JMASM

Li CS, Tu W.
PMID: 18997877
J Mod Appl Stat Methods. 2007 May;6(1):239-247. doi: 10.22237/jmasm/1177993260.

In regression analysis of count data, independent variables are often modeled by their linear effects under the assumption of log-linearity. In reality, the validity of such an assumption is rarely tested, and its use is at times unjustifiable. A...

Regulation of Apoptosis by Gram-Positive Bacteria: Mechanistic Diversity and Consequences for Immunity.

Current immunology reviews

Ulett GC, Adderson EE.
PMID: 19081777
Curr Immunol Rev. 2006 May;2(2):119-141. doi: 10.2174/157339506776843033.

Apoptosis, or programmed cell death (PCD), is an important physiological mechanism, through which the human immune system regulates homeostasis and responds to diverse forms of cellular damage. PCD may also be involved in immune counteraction to microbial infection. Over...
