Purpose
Early cardiac toxicity is a risk associated with adjuvant chemotherapy plus trastuzumab. However, objective measures of cardiac function and health-related quality of life are lacking in long-term follow-up of patients who remain cancer free after completion of adjuvant treatment.
Patients and Methods
Patients in NSABP Protocol B-31 received anthracycline and taxane chemotherapy with or without trastuzumab for adjuvant treatment of node-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2–positive early-stage breast cancer. A long-term follow-up assessment was undertaken for patients who were alive and disease free, which included measurement of left ventricular ejection fraction by multigated acquisition scan along with patient-reported …

In this work we have developed a multi-tiered computational platform to study protein-drug interactions. At the beginning of the workflow more efficient and less accurate methods are used to enable large libraries of proteins in many conformations and massive chemical libraries to be screened. At each subsequent step in the workflow a subset of input data is investigated with increased accuracy and more computationally expensive methods. We demonstrate the developed workflow with the investigation of the lymphocyte-specific kinase LCK, which is implicated as a drug target in many cancers and also known to have toxic effects when unintentionally targeted. Several …

Purpose
Treatment options for neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) remain limited. This trial assessed the progression-free survival (PFS) of bevacizumab or interferon alfa-2b (IFN-α-2b) added to octreotide among patients with advanced NETs.
Patients and Methods
Southwest Oncology Group (SWOG) S0518, a phase III study conducted in a US cooperative group system, enrolled patients with advanced grades 1 and 2 NETs with progressive disease or other poor prognostic features. Patients were randomly assigned to treatment with octreotide LAR 20 mg every 21 days with either bevacizumab 15 mg/kg every 21 days or 5 million units of IFN-α-2b three times per week. The primary …
