Xalkori blocks the growth of tumours caused by a mutant form of the gene which encodes a signalling molecule known as anaplastic lymphoma kinase. |
In their article, 4 of 5 cases were found to have villous or tubulovillous adenomas adjacent to the highly anaplastic carcinomas but with no obvious transition. |
Of the 14 anaplastic oligoastrocytomas, 6 were designated astrocytoma predominant and 2 were oligodendroglioma predominant. |
Finally, a highly anaplastic growth can occur, in which the cancerous cells bear no visible relation to the parent tissue. |
We defined advanced stage as nodal or metastatic spread and high grade as poorly differentiated, undifferentiated, or anaplastic disease. |
He was discussing a possible link between the implants and anaplastic large-cell lymphoma or ALCL, a cancer that involves the immune system. |
