Pembrolizumab given concomitantly with chemoradiation and as maintenance therapy for locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma: KEYNOTE-412.
(FUTURE MEDICINE LTD, 2020-06-03)Current treatment guidelines for patients with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) recommend multimodal treatment, including chemoradiation therapy (CRT) or surgery followed by radiation, with ... -
Pembrolizumab versus methotrexate, docetaxel, or cetuximab for recurrent or metastatic head-and-neck squamous cell carcinoma (KEYNOTE-040): a randomised, open-label, phase 3 study.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2019-01-12)BACKGROUND: There are few effective treatment options for patients with recurrent or metastatic head-and-neck squamous cell carcinoma. Pembrolizumab showed antitumour activity and manageable toxicity in early-phase trials. ... -
Pembrolizumab versus methotrexate, docetaxel, or cetuximab in recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (KEYNOTE-040): Subgroup analysis by pattern of disease recurrence.
(ELSEVIER, 2023-12-01)BACKGROUND: In the phase 3 KEYNOTE-040 study, pembrolizumab prolonged OS versus chemotherapy in previously treated recurrent or metastatic (R/M) HNSCC. We present a post hoc subgroup analysis by disease recurrence pattern: ... -
Pembrolizumab With or Without Chemotherapy in Recurrent or Metastatic Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma: Updated Results of the Phase III KEYNOTE-048 Study.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2023-02-01)PURPOSE: Pembrolizumab and pembrolizumab-chemotherapy demonstrated efficacy in recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma in KEYNOTE-048. Post hoc analysis of long-term efficacy and progression-free survival ... -
Performance of African-ancestry-specific polygenic hazard score varies according to local ancestry in 8q24.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2021-06-14)BACKGROUND: We previously developed an African-ancestry-specific polygenic hazard score (PHS46+African) that substantially improved prostate cancer risk stratification in men with African ancestry. The model consists of ... -
Performance of automatic image segmentation algorithms for calculating total lesion glycolysis for early response monitoring in non-small cell lung cancer patients during concomitant chemoradiotherapy.
(2016-06)Background and purpose This study evaluated the use of total lesion glycolysis (TLG) determined by different automatic segmentation algorithms, for early response monitoring in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients ... -
Peri-operative chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab in operable oesophagogastric adenocarcinoma (UK Medical Research Council ST03): primary analysis results of a multicentre, open-label, randomised phase 2-3 trial.
(2017-03)Background Peri-operative chemotherapy and surgery is a standard of care for patients with resectable oesophagogastric adenocarcinoma. Bevacizumab, a monoclonal antibody against VEGF, improves the proportion of patients ... -
Pericyte FAK negatively regulates Gas6/Axl signalling to suppress tumour angiogenesis and tumour growth.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-06-04)The overexpression of the protein tyrosine kinase, Focal adhesion kinase (FAK), in endothelial cells has implicated its requirement in angiogenesis and tumour growth, but how pericyte FAK regulates tumour angiogenesis is ... -
Perioperative events influence cancer recurrence risk after surgery.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-04-01)Surgery is a mainstay treatment for patients with solid tumours. However, despite surgical resection with a curative intent and numerous advances in the effectiveness of (neo)adjuvant therapies, metastatic disease remains ... -
Peritumoral Delivery of Docetaxel-TIPS Microparticles for Prostate Cancer Adjuvant Therapy.
(WILEY, 2020-10-19)Recurrence of prostate cancer after radical prostatectomy is a consequence of incomplete tumor resection. Systemic chemotherapy after surgery is associated with significant toxicity. Improved delivery methods for toxic ... -
Persistent DNA strand breaks induce a CAF-like phenotype in normal fibroblasts.
(Impact Journals, LLC, 2018-03-02)Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are an emerging target for cancer therapy as they promote tumour growth and metastatic potential. However, CAF targeting is complicated by the lack of knowledge-based strategies aiming ... -
Personalized (N-of-1) Trials for Patient-Centered Treatments of Multimorbidity.
(MIT Press, 2022-09-08)Treatment of patients who suffer from concurrent health conditions is not well served by (1) evidence-based clinical guidelines that mainly specify treatment of single conditions and (2) conventional randomized controlled ... -
Perspectives on ENCODE.
(NATURE RESEARCH, 2020-07-30)The Encylopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) Project launched in 2003 with the long-term goal of developing a comprehensive map of functional elements in the human genome. These included genes, biochemical regions associated ... -
Perspectives on the Risk-Stratified Treatment of Multiple Myeloma.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2022-07-06)The multiple myeloma treatment landscape has changed dramatically. This change, paralleled by an increase in scientific knowledge, has resulted in significant improvement in survival. However, heterogeneity remains in ... -
PET imaging to monitor NET-1 and GD2 expression in neuroblastoma
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-01-31)Within neuroblastoma (NB), approximately 50% of patients are considered high-risk, presenting widespread distant metastasis and, frequently, MYCN amplification. NB is further characterised by the selective presence of the ...
