Naresh, K.N., Johnson, J., Srinivas, V., Soman, C.S., Saikia, T., Advani, S.H., ...
Background: Most Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) associated lymphoproliferative disorders have high proliferation indices. However, classical Hodgkin's disease (cHD) is heterogeneous, with respect to...
Nerurkar, A. Y., Vijayan, P., Srinivas, V., Soman, C. S., Dinshaw, K. A., Advani, S. H., ...
Background: Though Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) has been linked to classical Hodgkin's disease (cHD), only a proportion of cHD cases show EBV-association. While there has been evidence to suggest a...
Advani, S., Pai, S., Venzon, D., Adde, M., Kurkure, P. K., Nair, C. N., ...
Background: In the past, treatment results in Indian children with ALL have been poor, primarily due to inadequate chemotherapy and supportive care, but perhaps reflecting differences from Western...
Essential drugs for cancer therapy: A World Health Organization consultation (1999)
Sikora, K., Advani, S., Koroltchouk, V., Magrath, I., Levy, L., Pinedo, H., ...
The WHO has previously produced recommendations on the essential drugs required for cancer therapy. Over the last five years several new anti cancer drugs have been aggressively marketed. Most of...
Gutiérrez, M. I., Bhatia, K., Cherney, B., Capello, D., Gaidano, G., Magrath, I.
Background Burkitt's lymphoma is a B-cell neoplasm characterized by a chromosomal translocation involving the c-myc gene. BL may carry, besides the c-myc translocation, several other lesions...
Combination chemotherapy for advanced bilharzial bladder carcinoma (1996)
Khaled, H. M., El-Mawla, N. Gad, El-Said, A., Gaafar, R., El-Attar, I., ...
Background: Carcinoma of the bilharzial bladder, the most common cancer in Egyptian patients has been, until recently, largely treated by surgery. We have studied the activity of a series of single...

Emanuel, B.S., Cannizzaro, L.A., Magrath, I., Tsujimoto, Y., Nowell, P.C., Croce, C.M.
We have demonstrated that the chromosomal breakpoint at 22q11 of a Burkitt lymphoma cell line (PA682) with an 8;22 translocation interrupts the variable region of the lambda light chain locus. In...
Pelicci, P G, Knowles, D M, Magrath, I, Dalla-Favera, R
We have examined the position of the chromosomal breakpoint relative to the human c-myc gene (MYC) and the presence of other structural alterations of the same locus in 19 fresh samples of Burkitt...
Chromosomal orientation of the lambda light chain locus: V lambda is proximal to C lambda in 22q11.
