Disease relevance of Penile Neoplasms

• FDG uptake was seen in one of the three primary RCCs, in the local recurrence of RCC, in the squamous RCC, and in the metastases of penile cancer [1].

High impact information on Penile Neoplasms

• PURPOSE: To ascertain whether HPV is associated with penile cancer, we used a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based assay to test specimens of penile SCC for the presence of HPV DNA [2].
• METHODS: Thirteen patients (mean +/- SD age, 64 +/- 14.0 y) with suspected penile cancer or suspected recurrent disease were examined with a Gemini PET/CT system (200 MBq of (18)F-FDG) [3].
• Parathyroid hormone related protein producing penile cancer [4].
• Brachytherapy with a mold for penile cancer was considered to be the first choice for penis-conserving therapy, and the patients with T1 and T2 tumors have good indications for this method of treatment [5].
• Cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil in advanced cancer of the penis [6].

Chemical compound and disease context of Penile Neoplasms

• Sequential trials of methotrexate, cisplatin and bleomycin for penile cancer [7].
• Cancer of the penis. Experience at the Norwegian Radium Hospital 1974-1985 [8].
• In addition, data of four patients with penile cancer treated at Memorial Hospital in 1971-72 as part of a drug-oriented prospective Phase I-II trial of bleomycin are included [9].
• From 1980 to 1997, 31 patients with node-negative penile cancer were treated with an iridium-192 implant to the penis [10].
• The paclitaxel/carboplatin combination has potential activity in penile cancer [11].

Biological context of Penile Neoplasms

• Chromosome findings in cultured skin fibroblasts from a patient treated with an anti-cancer drug, pepleomycin sulfate, for his penis cancer are reported [12].

Anatomical context of Penile Neoplasms

• Bleomycin was applied alone or in combination with actinomycin D, vinblastine, radiation and/or surgery in cancer of the penis (6) and testis (6) [13].

Gene context of Penile Neoplasms

• E-cadherin, MMP-2, and MMP-9 as prognostic markers in penile cancer: analysis of 125 patients [14].
• Human papillomavirus RNA-positive penile cancers were significantly more likely to exhibit adjacent PIN 3 lesions than were HPV-negative tumors, and PIN 3 lesions adjacent to tumors always contained the same HPV-RNA type as was present in the invasive tumor [15].
• An inverse correlation between HPV and p53 gene mutation is not observed in penile cancers [16].
• One hundred and fifteen patients with penile cancer were treated at Roswell Park Memorial Institute from 1952 to 1975 [17].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Penile Neoplasms

• Cisplatin pasting for radiotherapy of penile cancer [18].
• Major tumor regression after paclitaxel and carboplatin polychemotherapy in a patient with advanced penile cancer [11].
