Can the human immune system recognize cancer-associated antigens? Can an anti-cancer immune response affect cancer cells and lead to increased survival? Results from animal model studies have been interpreted by optimists as encouraging, and by pessimists as being irrelevant to human cancer. Earlier studies on \"cancer vaccines\" utilized heterogeneous cell extracts of cell components. Monoclonal antibodies have enabled identification of relevant cancer-associated antigens or epitopes, such as the ganglioside GM2, the carbohydrates TF and STn, and the peptide sequences of MUC-1. In parallel with research on immune adjuvants and measures designed to inhibit suppressor activity, these epitopes are being tested for their potential in the immunotherapy of solid tumors. It is clear that some of these cancer-associated epitopes are immunogenic in humans. Mixed responses may relate to cancer heterogeneity and may indicate the importance of multi-epitopic vaccines. Responses are encouraging, but are they relevant? Prolonged disease stability challenges us to re-think the goals of cancer therapy. Recent advances in the knowledge of the effect of cytokines on tumor antigen expression and the regulation of the immune response, coupled with advances in active specific immunotherapy, provide hope that biomodulation may become an important part of the therapy of solid tumors in the next century.</p>","PeriodicalId":79379,"journal":{"name":"The Canadian journal of oncology","volume":"4 2","pages":"249-54"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"18524298","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is also expected that the activities in one area will complement those in the other areas, thereby creating a synergistic effect. To determine if the objectives of the Centre for Behavioral Research and Program Evaluation (CBRPE) are being met, the NCIC has committed to an ongoing assessment of the CBRPE's performance, including an independent review of its scientific merit by a site visit conducted at the end of the second year of the CBRPE's operation. Thus, while the behavioral initiative represents a different type of investment by the NCIC, its contributions will be judged via a process that is central to all NCIC activities--the assessment of scientific merit by teams of persons recognized nationally and internationally for their expertise in social and behavioral research as it pertains to cancer.</p>","PeriodicalId":79379,"journal":{"name":"The Canadian journal of oncology","volume":"4 2","pages":"255-61"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"18999280","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Preventive approaches need to be congruent with those adopted for other chronic diseases, with a major impact to be expected from smoking control and dietary modification. Canadian studies have contributed substantially to knowledge in both areas. Increasing interest is now being paid to other environmental causes of cancer, and to gene-environment interactions. Canadian studies have shown that screening for cancer of the cervix is effective, but improved organization of services is required to make it realize its full potential. The National Breast Screening Study has reminded us that a prerequisite for effective screening is effective therapy for the detected abnormalities, yet as therapy improves, so the contribution of screening may fall. Treatment has improved dramatically in recent decades for childhood cancer, where it is the mainstay of control. For adults, Canadian studies have contributed to improved therapy for some solid and hematogenous tumors, but important breakthroughs from molecular biology are still awaited. Finally, Canadians have been at the forefront of palliative care, as well as recognizing the need for improvement in the organization of cancer control.</p>","PeriodicalId":79379,"journal":{"name":"The Canadian journal of oncology","volume":"4 1","pages":"238-42"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1994-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"18521831","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Multidimensional standardized questionnaires provide assessments of different aspects of health-related QOL, including psychological, physical and social functioning as well as symptoms.

Examples are applications to clinical trials and to studies of patients' needs for care.
