Targeted therapy for LIMD1-deficient non-small cell lung cancer subtypes.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2021-11-11)An early event in lung oncogenesis is loss of the tumour suppressor gene LIMD1 (LIM domains containing 1); this encodes a scaffold protein, which suppresses tumorigenesis via a number of different mechanisms. Approximately ... -
Targeting acute myeloid leukemia by drug-induced c-MYB degradation.
(2018-04)Despite advances in our understanding of the molecular basis for particular subtypes of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), effective therapy remains a challenge for many individuals suffering from this disease. A significant ... -
Targeting an Initiator Allergen Provides Durable and Expansive Protection against House Dust Mite Allergy.
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2022-09-09)Whereas treatment of allergic diseases such as asthma relies largely on the targeting of dysregulated effector pathways, the conceptually attractive alternative of preventing them by a pharmaceutical, at-source intervention ... -
Targeting Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) in Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) with the Second-Generation ALK Inhibitor Ceritinib.
(2017-12)The receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) has been implicated in the tumorigenesis of rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS). However, the exact role of ALK in RMS is debatable and remains to be elucidated.To ... -
Targeting Androgen Receptor Aberrations in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2016-09-01)Androgen receptor (AR) splice variants (SV) have been implicated in the development of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer and resistance to AR targeting therapies, including abiraterone and enzalutamide. Agents ... -
Targeting androgen receptor splicing in lethal prostate cancer
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-04-30)Over the past decade, androgen receptor (AR) directed therapies such as abiraterone and enzalutamide have become the standard of care for treating advanced prostate cancer, improving both progression-free and overall ... -
Targeting aneuploidy, CIN and mechanisms of DNA content reduction in cancer
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-02-28)Chromosomal instability (CIN) and aneuploidy are distinct events that can coexist in a tumour and one can result from the other. They can arise through direct errors in mitosis or in DNA damage repair and response machineries, ... -
Targeting Angiogenic Pathways in Colorectal Cancer: Complexities, Challenges and Future Directions.
(2017-01)Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the commonest cancers in the world. During the last decade, the development of targeted therapies has given cancer treatment a novel direction in management of metastatic CRC (mCRC) and ... -
Targeting Bromodomain and Extra-Terminal (BET) Family Proteins in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (CRPC).
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2018-07-01)Purpose: Persistent androgen receptor (AR) signaling drives castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) and confers resistance to AR-targeting therapies. Novel therapeutic strategies to overcome this are urgently required. ... -
Targeting Cancer Heterogeneity with Immune Responses Driven by Oncolytic Peptides.
(CELL PRESS, 2021-01-11)Accumulating preclinical and clinical evidence indicates that high degrees of heterogeneity among malignant cells constitute a considerable obstacle to the success of cancer therapy. This calls for the development of ... -
Targeting CD38 and PD-1 with isatuximab plus cemiplimab in patients with advanced solid malignancies: results from a phase I/II open-label, multicenter study.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2022-01-01)BACKGROUND: Preclinical data suggest that concurrent treatment of anti-CD38 and antiprogrammed death 1 (PD-1)/programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) antibodies substantially reduce primary tumor growth by reversing T-cell ... -
Targeting Cyclin-Dependent Kinases in Synovial Sarcoma: Palbociclib as a Potential Treatment for Synovial Sarcoma Patients.
(2016-09)Background In synovial sarcomas alterations in the cyclin D1-CDK4/6-Rb axis have been described. Also, β-catenin, a cyclin D1 regulator, is often overexpressed. Additionally, studies have shown that the t(X;18) translocation ... -
Targeting cyclooxygenase by indomethacin decelerates progression of acute lymphoblastic leukemia in a xenograft model.
(AMER SOC HEMATOLOGY, 2019-11-12)Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) develops in the bone marrow in the vicinity of stromal cells known to promote tumor development and treatment resistance. We previously showed that the cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitor ... -
Targeting deficient DNA damage repair in gastric cancer.
(2016-09)Introduction Over recent years our understanding of DNA damage repair has evolved leading to an expansion of therapies attempting to exploit DNA damage repair deficiencies across multiple solid tumours. Gastric cancer has ... -
Targeting DNA damage response in oesophagogastric cancers
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2023-05-30)A subset of patients with oesphophagogastric (OG) adenocarcinomas are characterised by homologous recombination repair deficiency (HRD), providing the rationale for poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor (PARPi) therapy ... -
Targeting DNA Repair in Cancer: Beyond PARP Inhibitors.
(2017-01)Germline aberrations in critical DNA-repair and DNA damage-response (DDR) genes cause cancer predisposition, whereas various tumors harbor somatic mutations causing defective DDR/DNA repair. The concept of synthetic lethality ... -
Targeting EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations in non-small cell lung cancer.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2019-03-08)Inframe insertions of three or more base pairs in exon 20 of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene were among the first EGFR mutations to be identified as oncogenic drivers in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). ... -
Targeting Endo180 with an antibody-drug conjugate for cancer treatment
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2024-03-22)Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are formed of an antibody attached to a cytotoxic drug via a linker which is cleaved upon internalisation of the ADC into the cell. This allows very toxic drugs to be directed to specific ... -
