MUKtwelve protocol: a phase II randomised, controlled, open, parallel group, multicentre trial of selinexor, cyclophosphamide and prednisolone (SCP) versus cyclophosphamide and prednisolone (CP) in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2022-10-26)INTRODUCTION: Multiple myeloma is a malignancy of plasma cells with around 6000 new cases per year in the UK. Cyclophosphamide plus prednisolone is considered a standard of care for disease and symptom control in the ... -
Multi-candidate immunohistochemical markers to assess radiation response and prognosis in prostate cancer: results from the CHHiP trial of radiotherapy fractionation.
(ELSEVIER, 2023-02-01)BACKGROUND: Protein markers of cellular proliferation, hypoxia, apoptosis, cell cycle checkpoints, growth factor signalling and inflammation in localised prostate tumours have previously shown prognostic ability. A ... -
Multi-Channel Optical Coherence Elastography Using Relative and Absolute Shear-Wave Time of Flight.

A Multicenter Phase II Study of AMG 337 in Patients with MET-Amplified Gastric/Gastroesophageal Junction/Esophageal Adenocarcinoma and Other MET-Amplified Solid Tumors.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2019-04-15)PURPOSE: MET gene amplification is associated with poor prognosis in gastric/gastroesophageal junction/esophageal (G/GEJ/E) cancers. We determined antitumor activity, safety, and pharmacokinetics of the small-molecule MET ... -
Multidisciplinary interventions in a specialist Drug Development Unit to improve family history documentation and onward referral of patients with advanced cancer to cancer genetics services.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2019-06-01)BACKGROUND: Molecular aberrations in cancer may represent therapeutic targets, and, if arising from the germline, may impact further cancer risk management in patients and their blood relatives. Annually, 600-700 patients ... -
Multigene expression of protein complexes by iterative modification of genomic Bacmid DNA
(BIOMED CENTRAL LTD, 2009-09-02)Background: Many cellular multi-protein complexes are naturally present in cells at low abundance. Baculovirus expression offers one approach to produce milligram quantities of correctly folded and processed eukaryotic ... -
Multimeric antibodies with increased valency surpassing functional affinity and potency thresholds using novel formats.
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2020-01-01)The success of therapeutic antibodies is largely attributed for their exquisite specificity, homogeneity, and functionality. There is, however, a need to engineer antibodies to extend and enhance their potency. One parameter ... -
Multiparameter Lead Optimization to Give an Oral Checkpoint Kinase 1 (CHK1) Inhibitor Clinical Candidate: (R)-5-((4-((Morpholin-2-ylmethyl)amino)-5-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-2-yl)amino)pyrazine-2-carbonitrile (CCT245737).
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2016-06-09)Multiparameter optimization of a series of 5-((4-aminopyridin-2-yl)amino)pyrazine-2-carbonitriles resulted in the identification of a potent and selective oral CHK1 preclinical development candidate with in vivo efficacy ... -
Multiparametric Analysis of Cell Shape Demonstrates that β-PIX Directly Couples YAP Activation to Extracellular Matrix Adhesion.
(CELL PRESS, 2017-01-25)Mechanical signals from the extracellular matrix (ECM) and cellular geometry regulate the nuclear translocation of transcriptional regulators such as Yes-associated protein (YAP). Elucidating how physical signals control ... -
Multiparametric bone MRI can improve CT-guided bone biopsy target selection in cancer patients and increase diagnostic yield and feasibility of next-generation tumour sequencing.
(SPRINGER, 2022-01-29)OBJECTIVES: To evaluate whether multiparametric bone MRI (mpBMRI) utilising a combination of DWI signal, ADC and relative fat-fraction (rFF) can identify bone metastases, which provide high diagnostic biopsy yield and ... -
Multiparametric bone MRI targeting aides lesion selection for CT-guided sclerotic bone biopsies in metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer.
(BMC, 2023-12-15)BACKGROUND: Bone biopsies in metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) patients can be challenging. This study's objective was to prospectively validate a multiparametric bone MRI (mpBMRI) algorithm to facilitate ... -
Multiparametric Magnetic Resonance Imaging for Bladder Cancer: Development of VI-RADS (Vesical Imaging-Reporting And Data System).
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2018-09-01)CONTEXT: Management of bladder cancer (BC) is primarily driven by stage, grade, and biological potential. Knowledge of each is derived using clinical, histopathological, and radiological investigations. This multimodal ... -
Multiparametric Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Prostate Cancer Bone Disease: Correlation With Bone Biopsy Histological and Molecular Features.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2018-02-01)OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to correlate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) bone metastases with histological and molecular features of bone metastases. MATERIALS AND ... -
Multiparametric MRI to improve detection of prostate cancer compared with transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy alone: the PROMIS study.
(2018-07)Background Men with suspected prostate cancer usually undergo transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided prostate biopsy. TRUS-guided biopsy can cause side effects and has relatively poor diagnostic accuracy. Multiparametric ... -
