Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
2. Treatment of Experimental Neuroblastoma with Angiogenic Inhibitors
Sammanfattning : Neuroblastoma is a childhood cancer that originates from neuroblasts in the peripheral nervous system. Neuroblastoma show considerable heterogeneity with respect to location, responsiveness to treatment and prognosis. LÄS MER
3. Novel Treatment Modalities for High-Risk Neuroblastoma : Studies in Animal Models
Sammanfattning : Neuroblastoma, the most common extracranial solid tumor of childhood, is a heterogeneous tumor. In some patients, the tumor can go into spontaneous regression and disappear whereas other patients have rapidly growing tumors with a poor prognosis. LÄS MER
4. Angiogenesis in childhood malignancies
Sammanfattning : Angiogenesis is necessary for the growth and spread of solid tumors. In these studies angiogenesis was measured in childhood malignancies in general and in Wilms’ tumor in particular, and cutting needle biopsy (CNB) specimens were evaluated for diagnosis in childhood renal tumors.

5. Application of a New Logic to Old Drugs: Angiogenesis Inhibition in Neuroblastoma
Sammanfattning : Neuroblastoma is one of the most common solid cancers of early childhood. In Sweden, approximately 10-15 cases occur annually. The overall five-year neuroblastoma survival in Europe is approximately 45%. Since cancer treatment involves drugs with risks of side effects in the growing child, there is a need for more effective and less toxic drugs. LÄS MER
