Hello - I would like to add the information website for patients diagnosed with CUP, their families and carers to this article. The website address is http://www.cupfoundjo.org/. Please could you confirm whether this is ok? Thanks Nancy Nancyplatts (talk) 13:47, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi Nancy, I'll add this to the 'External Links' section of the page now. Cheers, HenryScow (talk) 15:07, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

JFW, do you have an interest in working on this right now? WhatamIdoing (talk) 03:54, 25 August 2014 (UTC)

Hello WhatamIdoing, I am struggling to commit large amounts of editing time currently but I can definitely help out. There's a couple of good recent reviews and we can use National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence. Clinical guideline 104: Metastatic malignant disease of unknown primary origin. London, 2010. JFW | T@lk 08:32, 25 August 2014 (UTC)

I am looking at some good sources, using Pubmed with the search "Neoplasms, Unknown Primary"[MAJR] and "Review".

doi:10.1007/s00428-014-1545-2 - Gene expression profiling as a guide to treatment

doi:10.1007/s11864-013-0257-1 - Molecular diagnosis

doi:10.1016/j.suronc.2013.06.002 - Meta-analysis of PET scanning

doi:10.1111/eci.12062 - Exploring the biology

doi:10.2214/AJR.12.9363 - Radiological aspects

doi:10.1038/bjc.2012.516 - Some benefit from platinum- or taxane-containing regimens (meta-analysis)

doi:10.1016/j.critrevonc.2012.03.003 - What to do about the "unfavourable" group

doi:10.1186/1479-5876-10-12 - Broad review

Then there's the NCCN guideline also at PMID 22157556

I'll try to help out. JFW | T@lk 08:56, 25 August 2014 (UTC)
