Following reports from a phase II sunitinib study in metastatic breast cancer (Burstein et al, 2008) suggesting that some patients had increases in the size of the superficial lesions during the 2-week off-treatment period, it was hypothesised that better tumour control could be achieved with sunitinib given once daily on a continuous daily dose (CDD) schedule.
For example, this could be achieved by randomising 100 patients once and 50 patients twice (200 observations from 150 patients), or by randomising 50 patients once and 50 patients 3 times (200 observations from 100 patients).
Once Taiwanese participation could be achieved on grounds that did not contradict, and perhaps even furthered this goal, Beijing relented.
He would hold McClellan's horse, he'd once said, if a victory could be achieved.
Once this amendment was lost, nothing could be achieved in the subsequent vote.
Further, we examined whether successful control could be achieved by locking the stimulator at a static optical power once the controller stabilized.
Possibly, in Arabidopsis this could be achieved by impacting several (redundant) genes converting this to a complex process, which, once completed, would be difficult to revert.
Once the cells were attached solidly to the patch-clamp electrode, this could be achieved simply by moving the electrode.
