Machine learning combined to mechanistic modeling of differential effects of neoadjuvant sunitinib on primary tumor and metastatic growth
Introduction: Despite proven clinical action of angiogenic inhibitors [1], recent experimental evidence also suggests differential effects of these drugs on…
Read moreA new approach to predict PFS in Ovarian Cancer based on tumor growth dynamics.
Objectives: Progression free survival (PFS) is a surrogate efficacy endpoint that is being used for regulatory approval of investigational drugs…
Read moreDynamics of the humoral immune response to a two-dose heterologous vaccine regimen against Ebola virus.
Introduction: The two-dose heterologous vaccine regimen Ad26.ZEBOV,MVA-BN-Filo against Ebola virus has been evaluated in multiple clinical trials. However, the long-term…
Read moreAssociation between tumor size kinetics and survival in advanced urothelial carcinoma patients treated with atezolizumab: implication for patient’s follow-up
Context: Immune-oncology is revolutionizing cancer treatment, but the association between treatment response and survival remains poorly understood. The response kinetics,…
Read moreIntegrated efficacy-safety QSP model of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) generates insights into the role of clinical dose schedules on cytopenia
Introduction: Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is an aggressive hematological malignancy, characterized by an accumulation of leukemic blast cells in the…
Read moreBody composition and drug exposure in adipose tissue are key for antibiotic dose-individualisation in obese individuals
Objectives: The introduction of model-informed precision dosing (MIPD) promises a shift from the “one-size-fits-all” paradigm in antimicrobial dosing. Yet, the…
Read moreCombination of in vivo phage therapy data with in silico model highlights key parameters for treatment efficacy
Objectives: Bacteriophage (phage) therapy provides an attractive option to the increasing failure of antibiotics treatments. Phages are viruses that specifically…
Read moreStratified medicine approaches for drug susceptible tuberculosis patients
Objectives: Tuberculosis (TB) kills more people than any other infectious disease. All current approaches to TB treatment are based on…
Read moreModel-based individual managing of thrombocytopenia during multi-cyclic chemotherapy
Objectives: Thrombocytopenia is a major side-effect of cytotoxic cancer therapies. The development of individual therapy adaptations is a non-trivial task since thrombocytopenic…
