Panobinostat Synergizes with Chemotherapeutic Agents and Improves Efficacy of Standard-of-Care Chemotherapy Combinations in Ewing Sarcoma Cells
There has been little improvement in Ewing sarcoma survival rates over the past several decades and new therapeutic options are desperately needed. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are known to play a[...]
DFMO inhibition of neuroblastoma tumorigenesis
Most high-risk neuroblastoma patients who relapse succumb to disease despite the existing therapy. We recently reported increased event-free and overall survival in neuroblastoma patients receiving difluoromethylornithine (DFMO) during maintenance therapy.[...]
Molecular-guided therapy for the treatment of patients with relapsed and refractory childhood cancers: a Beat Childhood Cancer Research Consortium trial
A total of 186 eligible patients were enrolled with 144 evaluable for safety and 124 evaluable for response. The average number of days from biopsy to initiation of the MTB‑recommended[...]
Maintenance DFMO Increases Survival in High Risk Neuroblastoma
High risk neuroblastoma (HRNB) accounts for 15% of all pediatric cancer deaths. Despite aggressive therapy approximately half of patients will relapse, typically with only transient responses to second-line therapy. This[...]
