Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Surgery

Takuji Okusaka spends much of his time researching Internal medicine, Gastroenterology, Hepatocellular carcinoma, Oncology and Pancreatic cancer. Chemotherapy, Phases of clinical research, Gemcitabine, Survival rate and Hazard ratio are the primary areas of interest in his Internal medicine study. His research integrates issues of Radiation therapy, Surgery, Adverse effect, Neutropenia and Clinical endpoint in his study of Gastroenterology.

His research investigates the connection between Hepatocellular carcinoma and topics such as Carcinoma that intersect with issues in Radiology. His Oncology research includes elements of Cancer, Irinotecan and Survival analysis. His work deals with themes such as Weight loss, Bioinformatics, Carcinogenesis and Pancreatic disease, Pancreas, which intersect with Pancreatic cancer.

His most cited work include:

  • Everolimus for Advanced Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors (1972 citations)
  • Whole-genome sequencing of liver cancers identifies etiological influences on mutation patterns and recurrent mutations in chromatin regulators (608 citations)
  • Pan-cancer analysis of whole genomes (538 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Takuji Okusaka mainly focuses on Internal medicine, Oncology, Gastroenterology, Hepatocellular carcinoma and Gemcitabine. His work on Pancreatic cancer, Chemotherapy and Phases of clinical research as part of general Internal medicine research is frequently linked to In patient, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Oncology study incorporates themes from Cancer, Regimen, Clinical trial and Cisplatin.

His research investigates the link between Gastroenterology and topics such as Clinical endpoint that cross with problems in Hazard ratio. His studies deal with areas such as Carcinoma, Ramucirumab and Toxicity as well as Hepatocellular carcinoma. His Gemcitabine study combines topics in areas such as Combination chemotherapy, Chemoradiotherapy, Combination therapy and Antimetabolite.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (75.46%)
  • Oncology (42.35%)
  • Gastroenterology (33.61%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (75.46%)
  • Hepatocellular carcinoma (28.40%)
  • Gastroenterology (33.61%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Internal medicine, Hepatocellular carcinoma, Gastroenterology, Oncology and Sorafenib are his primary areas of study. He integrates many fields, such as Internal medicine and In patient, in his works. His Hepatocellular carcinoma research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Carcinoma, Ramucirumab and Objective response.

Takuji Okusaka interconnects Tolerability, Neutropenia, Phases of clinical research and Hazard ratio in the investigation of issues within Gastroenterology. He has researched Oncology in several fields, including Neuroendocrine tumors, Combination chemotherapy, Nivolumab and Predictive marker. His Gemcitabine research integrates issues from Clinical trial, Pancreatic cancer and Cisplatin.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Pan-cancer analysis of whole genomes (538 citations)
  • Ramucirumab after sorafenib in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma and increased α-fetoprotein concentrations (REACH-2): a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 trial. (410 citations)
  • Sorafenib plus low-dose cisplatin and fluorouracil hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy versus sorafenib alone in patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (SILIUS): a randomised, open label, phase 3 trial. (81 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Internal medicine
  • Cancer
  • Surgery

Internal medicine, Hepatocellular carcinoma, Oncology, Gastroenterology and Sorafenib are his primary areas of study. His works in Adverse effect, Clinical endpoint, Gemcitabine, Pancreatic cancer and Hazard ratio are all subjects of inquiry into Internal medicine. His study in the fields of Lenvatinib under the domain of Hepatocellular carcinoma overlaps with other disciplines such as In patient.

Takuji Okusaka has included themes like Combination chemotherapy, Chemotherapy, Nivolumab and Erlotinib in his Oncology study. His research in Gastroenterology intersects with topics in Cancer, Fluorouracil, Carcinoma and Neutropenia. As a member of one scientific family, Takuji Okusaka mostly works in the field of Sorafenib, focusing on Combination therapy and, on occasion, Nausea, Transcatheter arterial chemoembolization, Milan criteria, Tumor progression and ECOG Performance Status.
