Exploring an oncolytic virus triggered PD-L1 response via immunoPET
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2023-01-23)Oncolytic virotherapy (OV) exploits viruses which preferentially infect and kill cancerous cells. Moreover, oncolytic viruses stimulate the tumour-immune microenvironment towards an inflammatory phenotype. Therefore, OV ... -
Exploring causality in the association between circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D and colorectal cancer risk: a large Mendelian randomisation study.
(BMC, 2018-08-14)BACKGROUND: Whilst observational studies establish that lower plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OHD) levels are associated with higher risk of colorectal cancer (CRC), establishing causality has proven challenging. Since ... -
Exploring novel approaches to metastatic heterogeneity and clonal evolution
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-12-31)Background Alternative methods are required to optimise the clinical insights that may be derived from studies of cancer evolution and heterogeneity. Profiling a single biopsy of tumour tissue underestimates potential ... -
Exploring the barriers to, and importance of, participant diversity in early-phase clinical trials: an interview-based qualitative study of professionals and patient and public representatives.
(BMJ, 2024-03-19)OBJECTIVES: To explore the importance of, and barriers to achieving, diversity in early-phase clinical trials. DESIGN: Qualitative interviews analysed using thematic analysis. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS: Five professionals ... -
Exploring the Complex Relationship between Gut Microbiota and Risk of Colorectal Neoplasia Using Bidirectional Mendelian Randomization Analysis.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2023-06-01)BACKGROUND: Human gut microbiome has complex relationships with the host, contributing to metabolism, immunity, and carcinogenesis. METHODS: Summary-level data for gut microbiota and metabolites were obtained from MiBioGen, ... -
Exploring the immune microenvironment in small bowel adenocarcinoma using digital image analysis.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2023-08-01)BACKGROUND: Small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) is a rare malignancy of the small intestine associated with late stage diagnosis and poor survival outcome. High expression of immune cells and immune checkpoint biomarkers ... -
Exploring the Impact of Treatment Switching on Overall Survival from the PROfound Study in Homologous Recombination Repair (HRR)-Mutated Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC).
(SPRINGER, 2021-09-03)BACKGROUND: In oncology trials, treatment switching from the comparator to the experimental regimen is often allowed but may lead to underestimating overall survival (OS) of an experimental therapy. OBJECTIVE: This study ... -
Exploring the roles of urinary HAI-1, EpCAM & EGFR in bladder cancer prognosis & risk stratification.
(Impact Journals, LLC, 2018-05-18)OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether elevated urinary HAI-1, EpCAM and EGFR are independent prognostic biomarkers within non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) patients, and have utility for risk stratification to ... -
Exploring tumour evolution through single-cell sequencing
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2023-10-24)Tumours are composed of heterogeneous populations of cells which, under the pressure of the host and external treatments, evolve across time and space. Recent advances in next-generation sequencing technologies have ... -
Exposure to loud noise and risk of vestibular schwannoma: results from the INTERPHONE international case‒control study.
(SCANDINAVIAN JOURNAL WORK ENVIRONMENT & HEALTH, 2018-11-05)Objective Studies of loud noise exposure and vestibular schwannomas (VS) have shown conflicting results. The population-based INTERPHONE case‒control study was conducted in 13 countries during 2000-2004. In this paper, we ... -
Exposure-Response and Population Pharmacokinetic Analyses of a Novel Subcutaneous Formulation of Daratumumab Administered to Multiple Myeloma Patients.
(WILEY, 2020-11-03)We report the population pharmacokinetic (PK) and exposure-response analyses of a novel subcutaneous formulation of daratumumab (DARA) using data from 3 DARA subcutaneous monotherapy studies (PAVO Part 2, MMY1008, COLUMBA) ... -
Expression and clinical association of programmed cell death-1, programmed death-ligand-1 and CD8+ lymphocytes in primary sarcomas is subtype dependent.
(IMPACT JOURNALS LLC, 2017-07-07)In order to explore the potential of immune checkpoint blockade in sarcoma, we investigated expression and clinical relevance of programmed cell death-1 (PD-1), programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) and CD8 in tumors of 208 ... -
Expression of Mitochondrial Cytochrome C Oxidase Chaperone Gene (COX20) Improves Tolerance to Weak Acid and Oxidative Stress during Yeast Fermentation.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2015-10-01)INTRODUCTION: Saccharomyces cerevisiae is the micro-organism of choice for the conversion of fermentable sugars released by the pre-treatment of lignocellulosic material into bioethanol. Pre-treatment of lignocellulosic ... -
Expression of the fetal hematopoiesis regulator FEV indicates leukemias of prenatal origin.
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2017-05-01)The origin of cancers is associated with etiology as well as therapeutics. Several studies reveal that malignancies in children can originate in utero. However, a diagnostic approach to distinguish between cancers initiated ... -
Expression of the mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase ART1 by tumor cells mediates immune resistance in non-small cell lung cancer.
(AMER ASSOC ADVANCEMENT SCIENCE, 2022-03-16)Most patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) do not achieve durable clinical responses from immune checkpoint inhibitors, suggesting the existence of additional resistance mechanisms. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide ... -
Expression profiling of single cells and patient cohorts identifies multiple immunosuppressive pathways and an altered NK cell phenotype in glioblastoma.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2020-03-11)Glioblastoma (GBM) is an aggressive cancer with a very poor prognosis. Generally viewed as weakly immunogenic, GBM responds poorly to current immunotherapies. To understand this problem more clearly we used a combination ... -
