Longitudinal examination of perfusion and angiogenesis markers in primary colorectal tumors shows distinct signatures for metronomic and maximum-tolerated dose strategies
Abstract:Metronomic chemotherapy (MET) has been developed to address the shortcomings of maximum-tolerated chemotherapy (MTD) in regard to toxicity and development of resistance mechanisms in the tumor. In colorectal cancer (CRC), MET is a promising novel strategy to treat locally advanced malignancies when used as neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC). However, so far there are no preclinical studies to assess the impact of MET NAC in CRC to assess the benefits and challenges of this approach. Here, we used a primary model o… Show more
