Probiotic supplementation containing Lactobacillus Plantarum and Pediococcus acidilactici to H. pylori treatment neither decreased side effects nor improved compliance with therapy or eradication rates.
Aim: To describe the overall cancer-related healthcare utilization patterns, treatment patterns and outcomes in women diagnosed with platinum-sensitive recurrent high-grade serous ovarian cancer. Patients & methods: Subanalysis of the Spanish sample of a retrospective, noninterventional, multinational, observational study. Results: BRCA-mutated patients had better outcomes in terms of progression-free survival and overall survival than patients who were BRCA wild-type. It was observed that patients’ treatment outcomes after the first recurrence progressively worsened as the patient underwent subsequent chemotherapy lines. Healthcare resource utilization when accounting for the follow-up time did not substantially differ between BRCA1/ 2-mutated and BRCA wild-type patients. Conclusion: BRCA1/2 mutation carriers have better treatment outcomes, including longer survival, without a negative impact on the use of healthcare resources.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
