A Multidisciplinary Approach to
Gastrointestinal Bleeding in
Cancer Patients
John J.Imbesi,MD,and Robert C.Kurtz,MD
Abstract Gastrointestinal bleeding remains one of the most challenging
areas in medicine today,especially in the patient with cancer .New tech-
niques and technology have added much to the diagnosis and manage-
ment of gastrointestinal bleeding.Although gastroenterologists remain
at the center of the evaluation of these patients, the incorporation of
new techniques has meant that interventional radiologists and nuclear
medicine specialists often have important roles in assessing ...

Abstract
Octreotide represents a novel approach to the treatment of various endocrinological
and oncological disorders. Its effects are mediated through its interaction with the
somatostatin receptor subtype 2, and to a lesser extent subtypes 5 and 3, and
subsequent effects on hormone secretion. A long-acting repeatable (LAR)
formulation of octreotide is now available. It is administered by intramuscular injection
every 4 weeks. Results to date suggest that octreotide LAR appears ...

GASTROINTESTINAL CANCER
Prof. Dr. E. Van Cutsem
Digestive Oncology Unit
University Hospital Gasthuisberg
Leuven, Belgium
Although the number of new phase 3 studies with
positive outcome presented at the meeting of the
American Society of Oncology in New-Orleans in
2004, that will influence daily practise, was lower in
2004 than in 2003, the 2004 meeting revealed again
very important new scientific information and new
clinical data. In the plenary session 2 studies on colon
cancer were presented:a population based case
control study showed that HMG CoA reductase
inhibitors are associated with a reduction in the risk of
colorectal cancer (abstract 1) and study on translatio-
nal research suggested a link between Quality of life
during chemotherapy for metastatic colorectal cancer
and genetic markers (abstract 5). Very large adjuvant
studies were reported ...
