Öğe Epidemiology of colorectal cancer in Turkey: A cross-sectional disease registry study (A Turkish Oncology Group trial)(Aves, 2015) Aykan, Nuri Faruk; Yalcin, Suayib; Turhal, N. Serdar; Ozdogan, Mustafa; Demir, Gokhan; Ozkan, Metin; Yaren, ArzuBackground/Aims: This study aimed to determine the epidemiological characteristics of colorectal cancer in Turkey. Materials and Methods: In this multicenter, prospective, and cross-sectional registry study, data for 968 patients with colorectal cancer from 21 centers in 7 geographic regions were analyzed. Results: Diagnosis was colon cancer in 662 (68.4%) and rectum cancer in 306 (31.6%) patients. In total, 60.9% of patients was male; mean age was 58.9 +/- 12.6 years. Among patients, 15.0% was drinking alcohol, 17.5% was smoking, 1.5% had familial history of polyposis, 15.0% had diabetes mellitus, 1.0% had inflammatory bowel disease. Fruit and vegetable consumption was low (<3 times/week) in 35.5% and red meat consumption was high (>= 3 times/week) in 47.4% of the patients. Median time-to diagnosis was 3.0 months and 4.0 months for patients with colon and rectum cancer, respectively. Mean body mass index was >25 in all group of patients. Distal rectum (61.3%) and sigmoid colon (36.8%) were the most common locations of cancer, for rectum and colon respectively. In total, 85.6% of patients were operated; 25.8% had emergency surgery. Low anterior resection rate was 64.2% in rectum cancer. In majority (89.8%) of the patients with rectum cancer who received preoperative treatment, conventional chemo-radiotherapy regimen was given. pTNM staging at diagnosis showed that stage III and IV patients were in majority (35.9% and 29.7%, respectively). Conclusion: Colon cancer is more frequent than rectum cancer in Turkey. Colorectal cancer patients are diagnosed at later stages. Most of the cases were operated. Interregional differences for risk factors are worthwhile for evaluation in future trials.Öğe Impact of tivozanib on patient outcomes in treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma(Dove Medical Press Ltd, 2019) Yalcin, Suayib; Lacin, SahinRenal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most common type of kidney malignancy, and the clear-cell subtype represents the majority of RCCs. RCC is a heterogeneous disease in terms of genetic and histological features which determine the behavior of the disease. The von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) is a tumor suppressor gene and mutations of this gene are seen in 95% of clear-cell RCCs. Inactivation of VHL causes the accumulation of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1), and in turn, accumulation of HIF-1 induces overexpression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF); the increase in VEGF expression makes RCC a highly vascularized tumor, and forms the rationale for antiVEGF treatment. In the past decade, improvement in the survival of RCC patients has been observed due to new effective therapies, such as antiVEGF and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) targeting agents and immune checkpoint inhibitors. The majority of VEGF targeted agents are not just selective to VEGF receptors, but usually also have inhibitory effects on other kinases, such as c-KIT and FLT3. Tivozanib is an extremely potent and selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) of VEGFR-1, 2, and 3, with a relatively long half-life, that is approved by the European Commission for the treatment of advanced/metastatic RCC. Tivozanib, at very low serum concentration can inhibit phosphorylation of VEGFR -1, -2, and -3 tyrosine kinase activity. This article summarizes the clinical data on tivozanib in the treatment of advanced/metastatic RCC.Öğe Quality of life study in patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer treated with gemcitabine in combination with nab-paclitaxel versus gemcitabine alone:ax-panc-sy001: A phase II randomized study.(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2018) Yalcin, Suayib; Dane, Faysal; Oksuzoglu, Berna; Yildirim, Nuriye; Isikdogan, Abdurrahman; Ozkan, Metin; Demirag, Guzin[Abstract Not Available]Öğe Surgical, pathological and clinical features of advanced collorectal cancers with metastasectomy.
