Tumor necrosis is significantly associated with reduced recurrence-free survival after curative resection of gastrointestinal stromal tumors.
(WILEY, 2020-11-10)BACKGROUND OBJECTIVES: The impact of tumor necrosis as a prognostic factor in gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GISTs) is still debated. The objective was to determine whether tumor necrosis is an independent risk factor for ... -
Tumor PIK3CA Genotype and Prognosis in Early-Stage Breast Cancer: A Pooled Analysis of Individual Patient Data.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL ONCOLOGY, 2018-04-01)Purpose Phosphatidylinositol-4, 5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit alpha ( PIK3CA) mutations are frequently observed in primary breast cancer. We evaluated their prognostic relevance by performing a pooled analysis ... -
Tumor to cervical spinal cord standardized uptake ratio (SUR) improves the reproducibility of <sup>18</sup>F-FDG-PET based tumor segmentation in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma in a multicenter setting.
(2019-01)Background In quantitative FDG-PET data analysis, normalization of the standardized uptake value (SUV) with an internal image-derived standard improves its reproducibility. In this study, the cervical spinal cord is proposed ... -
Tumor-Infiltrating B Lymphocyte Profiling Identifies IgG-Biased, Clonally Expanded Prognostic Phenotypes in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2021-08-15)In breast cancer, humoral immune responses may contribute to clinical outcomes, especially in more immunogenic subtypes. Here, we investigated B lymphocyte subsets, immunoglobulin expression, and clonal features in breast ... -
Tumor-only sequencing for oncology management: Germline-focused analysis and implications.
(WILEY, 2020-12-15)As patients are now routinely having large somatic genomic testing panels undertaken as part of routine management, there is the rising likelihood of uncovering the presence of a germline pathogenic variant. This may be ... -
Tumor-Secreted LOXL2 Activates Fibroblasts through FAK Signaling
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2013-11-01)Cancer-associated fibroblasts enhance cancer progression when activated by tumor cells through mechanisms not yet fully understood. Blocking mammary tumor cell-derived lysyl oxidase-like 2 (LOXL2) significantly inhibited ... -
Tumour auto-contouring on 2d cine MRI for locally advanced lung cancer: A comparative study.
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2017-12-01)BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Radiotherapy guidance based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is currently becoming a clinical reality. Fast 2d cine MRI sequences are expected to increase the precision of radiation delivery by ... -
Tumour cell-derived Wnt7a recruits and activates fibroblasts to promote tumour aggressiveness.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2016-01-18)Stromal fibroblast recruitment to tumours and activation to a cancer-associated fibroblast (CAF) phenotype has been implicated in promoting primary tumour growth and progression to metastatic disease. However, the mechanisms ... -
Tumour kinome re-wiring governs resistance to palbociclib in oestrogen receptor positive breast cancers, highlighting new therapeutic modalities.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2020-06-18)Combination of CDK4/6 inhibitors and endocrine therapy improves clinical outcome in advanced oestrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer, however relapse is inevitable. Here, we show in model systems that other than ... -
Tumour responses following a steroid switch from prednisone to dexamethasone in castration-resistant prostate cancer patients progressing on abiraterone.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2014-12-09)BACKGROUND: Abiraterone is a CYP17A1 inhibitor that improves survival in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Abiraterone is licensed in combination with prednisone 5 mg twice daily to prevent a syndrome of secondary ... -
Tumour-agnostic drugs in paediatric cancers.
The recognition that new cancer drugs can be truly tumour-agnostic based on mechanism-of-action is important for paediatric cancers, where access to novel targeted therapies developed for adult indications has sometimes ... -
Tumour-suppression function of KLF12 through regulation of anoikis.
(2016-06)Suppression of detachment-induced cell death, known as anoikis, is an essential step for cancer metastasis to occur. We report here that expression of KLF12, a member of the Kruppel-like family of transcription factors, ... -
Tuning Local Hydration Enables a Deeper Understanding of Protein-Ligand Binding: The PP1-Src Kinase Case.
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2021-01-14)Water plays a key role in biomolecular recognition and binding. Despite the development of several computational and experimental approaches, it is still challenging to comprehensively characterize water-mediated effects ... -
