abstract

  • OBJECTIVE: Can biochip arrays identify which individuals with metastatic disease will respond to an anti-metastatic agent? DESIGN AND METHODS: Cytokine and cell adhesion arrays (Randox Ltd) were measured over 1 month in 9 research participants receiving CTCE-9908 in a Phase I/II study. RESULTS: Research participants with stable disease (n=2) had significantly higher soluble VCAM-1 as compared to those that progressed. DISCUSSION: VCAM-1 measurement early during CTCE-9908 treatment might be used as a surrogate for response.
