We analyzed global gene expression patterns of 91 human hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) to define the molecular characteristics of the tumors and to test the prognostic value of the expression profiles. Unsupervised classification methods revealed two distinctive subclasses of HCC that are highly a

## BACKGROUND. Tamoxifen sensitizes cancer cells to chemotherapeutic agents. High dose tamoxifen has been tested in the treatment of patients with melanoma and other cancers. The authors conducted a Phase II study of high dose tamoxifen plus cisplatin and etoposide for patients with advanced, inop
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third most common cause of cancer mortality worldwide. Survival is poor for patients with advancedβstage HCC, and small trials of tamoxifen for patients with this disease have shown conflicting results. The authors conducted a systema
## Background: The goal of the current study was to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of capecitabine in patients with nonresectable hepatobiliary carcinoma. ## Methods: The authors performed a retrospective analysis of all patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (hcc), cholangiocarcinoma (cca),
BACKGROUND. The use of either mitotane or chemotherapy in the treatment of advanced adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) has led to scanty and controversial results. The recent finding that mitotane is able to reverse in vitro multidrug resistance has provided a rational basis for combining this agent wit
