Book Synopsis Cytokines in Cancer Therapy by : Frances R. Balkwill
Download or read book Cytokines in Cancer Therapy written by Frances R. Balkwill and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1989 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cytokines, a broad class of proteins, have a role in fighting infection and in mounting an immune response; in mediating cell differentiation and embryogenesis; in promoting cell growth; and in inhibiting growth or causing cell death. Recent advances in cell culture, monoclonal antibodies and recombinant DNA technology have made it possible to isolate these proteins and to obtain sufficient quantities to conduct clinical studies as well as laboratory experiments. Thus, the foundations have been laid for a new form of cancer therapy and for understanding how abnormalities in the cytokine network could contribute to the process of malignancy. Up-to-date and comprehensive, this book brings together current research and discusses it in the context of its present and potential clinical application. The book is intended for cancer researchers, clinical oncologists, and those involved in the pharmaceutical and biological product industries.

Book Synopsis Interleukin 12: Antitumor Activity and Immunotherapeutic Potential in Oncology by : Witold Lasek
Download or read book Interleukin 12: Antitumor Activity and Immunotherapeutic Potential in Oncology written by Witold Lasek and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-23 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the immunotherapeutic potential of Interleukin 12 in the context of clinical oncology, as well as antitumor effects confirmed in preclinical studies and clinical trials in cancer immunotherapy. Due to its ability to activate both innate (NK cells) and adaptive (cytotoxic T lymphocytes) immunities, Interleukin 12 (IL-12) has been regarded as a promising candidate for tumor immunotherapy. However, despite the encouraging results in animal models, only very modest antitumor effects have been confirmed in early clinical trials. Recently, several clinical studies have been initiated in which IL-12 was applied as an adjuvant in cancer vaccines, in gene therapy including locoregional injections of IL-12 plasmid, and in the form of tumor-targeting immunocytokines (IL-12 fused to monoclonal antibodies).

Book Synopsis Clinical Applications of Cytokines by : Joost J. Oppenheim
Download or read book Clinical Applications of Cytokines written by Joost J. Oppenheim and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1993 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The driving force for research on cytokines has always been their clinical promise. Their biological properties suggested a key role in hematopoiesis, immunity, tumor genesis, hemostasis, vascularization, repair of connective tissues and integration of the immune system with the neuroendocrine system. Animal studies have shown that cytokines could be used as effective biotherapeutics with easily manageable and reversible toxicities. Clinical trials have confirmed these findings, culminating in the licensing of a number of the cytokines such as interferon alpha, interferon gamma, interleukin 2, erythropoietin, granulocyte colony stimulating factor, and granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor. Many other cytokines are in clinical trials. This is the first comprehensive volume on the cytokines written primarily from a medical perspective. After presenting background information about the structure, production, assays and systemic effects of cytokines and their receptors, it is organized around diseases and organ systems. Infectious diseases, autoimmunity, immunodeficiency states, defective hematopoiesis, allergies, injury repair, cancer, vascular and skin diseases, and neurological disorders are all covered. This work reviews the role that cytokines play in the pathogenesis, diagnosis and therapy of each disease. The authors assess both the current state of the art and the potential for future applications.

Book Synopsis Cytokines: Interleukins and Their Receptors by : Razelle Kurzrock
Download or read book Cytokines: Interleukins and Their Receptors written by Razelle Kurzrock and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 583 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last decade, cytokine research has emerged as one of the most exciting and critical fields for providing fundamental knowledge of normal and abnormal human development. Today, it is apparent that cytokines orchestrate growth from the early embryonic stage to maturity and are responsible for the normal function of virtually every organ system. Furthermore, virtually all disease states have been associated, at least in part, with cytokine aberrations. In this volume, the editors have brought together internationally known experts in the field of interleukin research to provide a comprehensive review of the biology of the interleukins and their role in both health and illness, while maintaining a balance between the basic science and clinical aspects. Cytokines: Interleukins and their Receptors should be of interest to a wide variety of researchers including clinical hematologists, oncologists, immunologists, in addition to medical and PhD students and researchers with an interest in cytokines.

Book Synopsis Principles of Cancer Biotherapy by : Robert K. Oldham
Download or read book Principles of Cancer Biotherapy written by Robert K. Oldham and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-08-29 with total page 743 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the time of the first edition of Principles of Cancer Biotherapy in 1987, this book represented the first comprehensive textbook on biological therapy. In 1991, when the second edition was published, there was still some doubt on the part of many oncologists and cancer researchers as to the therapeutic value of these new approaches. By 2003 and the fourth edition, it was generally agreed that biopharmaceuticals were producing major opportunities for new cancer therapies. Cancer biotherapy has now truly matured into the fourth modality of cancer treatment. This fifth revised edition describes the tremendous progress that has been made in recent years using biologicals in cancer treatment. This book summarizes an evolving science and a rapidly changing medical practice in biotherapy. In this new millennium, it is now possible to envision a much more diversified system of cancer research and treatment that will afford greater opportunities for a patient’s personalized cancer treatment. This was first envisioned in the 1987 initial edition of this textbook and is now a “new” and popular approach to cancer treatment. Some forms of cancer biotherapy use the strategy of tumor stabilization and control through continued biological therapy, akin to the use of insulin in the treatment of diabetes. This textbook illustrates new methods of thinking and new strategies for control of cancer. It is always difficult to move from past dogma to future opportunity, but this fifth edition of Principles of Cancer Biotherapy illustrates why it is so important to the patients for researchers and clinicians to explore and quickly apply these new opportunities in cancer biotherapy.
