CSN and CAVA: variant annotation tools for rapid, robust next-generation sequencing analysis in the clinical setting.
(BMC, 2015-07-28)BACKGROUND: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) offers unprecedented opportunities to expand clinical genomics. It also presents challenges with respect to integration with data from other sequencing methods and historical ... -
CT diagnosis of ilioinguinal lymph node metastases in melanoma using radiological characteristics beyond size and asymmetry.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2021-01-08)BACKGROUND: Diagnosis of lymph node (LN) metastasis in melanoma with non-invasive methods is challenging. The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of six LN characteristics on CT in detecting ... -
CT-Based Pelvic T1-Weighted MR Image Synthesis Using UNet, UNet++ and Cycle-Consistent Generative Adversarial Network (Cycle-GAN).
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2021-07-30)BACKGROUND: Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are the mainstay imaging modalities in radiotherapy planning. In MR-Linac treatment, manual annotation of organs-at-risk (OARs) and clinical volumes ... -
ctDNA guided adjuvant chemotherapy versus standard of care adjuvant chemotherapy after curative surgery in patients with high risk stage II or stage III colorectal cancer: a multi-centre, prospective, randomised control trial (TRACC Part C).
(BMC, 2023-03-20)BACKGROUND: Circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) to detect minimal residual disease (MRD) is emerging as a biomarker to predict recurrence in patients with curatively treated early stage colorectal cancer (CRC). ctDNA risk ... -
ctDNA guided diagnosis and management of gastrointestinal cancers
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2023-07-05)Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers including pancreatic (PC), biliary tract (BTC) and colorectal cancers (CRC) rely on a tissue biopsy through invasive procedures such as endoscopies and colonoscopies. Timely diagnosis of these ... -
Cumulative Burden of Morbidity Among Testicular Cancer Survivors After Standard Cisplatin-Based Chemotherapy: A Multi-Institutional Study.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL ONCOLOGY, 2018-05-20)Purpose In this multicenter study, we evaluated the cumulative burden of morbidity (CBM) among > 1,200 testicular cancer survivors and applied factor analysis to determine the co-occurrence of adverse health outcomes (AHOs). ... -
Current Advances in CAR T Cell Therapy for Malignant Mesothelioma.
(Scientific Archives LLC, 2020-06-22)Malignant mesothelioma is a relatively rare malignancy arising in the body's serosal surfaces, with malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) being the most common type. It is characterized by local spread within the thorax, ... -
Current and future diagnostic and treatment strategies for patients with invasive lobular breast cancer.
(ELSEVIER, 2022-08-01)BACKGROUND: Invasive lobular breast cancer (ILC) is the second most common type of breast cancer after invasive breast cancer of no special type (NST), representing up to 15% of all breast cancers. DESIGN: Latest data on ... -
Current Applications and Future Development of Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting in Diagnosis, Characterization, and Response Monitoring in Cancer.
(2021-09-22)Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has enabled non-invasive cancer diagnosis, monitoring, and management in common clinical settings. However, inadequate quantitative analyses in MRI continue to limit its full potential and ... -
Current approaches to incorporation of radium-223 in clinical practice.
(2018-04)BACKGROUND:Treatment options for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) have expanded in recent years and include cytotoxic agents (e.g., docetaxel and cabazitaxel), immunotherapy (e.g., sipuleucel-T), ... -
Current challenges for assessing the long-term clinical benefit of cancer immunotherapy: a multi-stakeholder perspective.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-01-01)Immuno-oncologics (IOs) differ from chemotherapies as they prime the patient's immune system to attack the tumor, rather than directly destroying cancer cells. The IO mechanism of action leads to durable responses and ... -
Current perspectives on recommendations for BRCA genetic testing in ovarian cancer patients.
(2016-12)Traditionally, BRCA genetic testing has been undertaken to identify patients and family members at future risk of developing cancer and patients have been referred for testing based on family history. However, the now ... -
Current Status and Future Directions of Immunotherapies in Soft Tissue Sarcomas.
(MDPI, 2022-02-28)Immunotherapy in soft tissue sarcoma (STS) has experienced a surge of interest in the past decade, contributing to an expanding number of therapeutic options for this extremely heterogenous group of rare malignancies. ... -
Cut-and-Run: A Distinct Mechanism by which V(D)J Recombination Causes Genome Instability.
(CELL PRESS, 2019-05-02)V(D)J recombination is essential to generate antigen receptor diversity but is also a potent cause of genome instability. Many chromosome alterations that result from aberrant V(D)J recombination involve breaks at single ... -
Cutaneous head and neck melanoma in OPTiM, a randomized phase 3 trial of talimogene laherparepvec versus granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor for the treatment of unresected stage IIIB/IIIC/IV melanoma.
(WILEY, 2016-12-01)BACKGROUND: Cutaneous head and neck melanoma has poor outcomes and limited treatment options. In OPTiM, a phase 3 study in patients with unresectable stage IIIB/IIIC/IV melanoma, intralesional administration of the oncolytic ... -
CXD101 and nivolumab in patients with metastatic microsatellite-stable colorectal cancer (CAROSELL): a multicentre, open-label, single-arm, phase II trial.

Cyclin A triggers Mitosis either via the Greatwall kinase pathway or Cyclin B.
(WILEY, 2020-06-02)Two mitotic cyclin types, cyclin A and B, exist in higher eukaryotes, but their specialised functions in mitosis are incompletely understood. Using degron tags for rapid inducible protein removal, we analyse how acute ... -
