Proton Beam Therapy for Early Breast Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Clinical Outcomes.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2023-11-15)PURPOSE: Adjuvant proton beam therapy (PBT) is increasingly available to patients with breast cancer. It achieves better planned dose distributions than standard photon radiation therapy and therefore may reduce the risks. ... -
Proton Beam Therapy in Breast Cancer Patients: The UK PARABLE Trial is Recruiting.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE LONDON, 2023-06-01) -
Proton Pump Inhibitor Use and Efficacy of Nivolumab and Ipilimumab in Advanced Melanoma.
(MDPI, 2022-05-05)The impact of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) on clinical outcomes with first-line immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in patients with metastatic melanoma was previously analyzed in the phase II study, CheckMate 069. This ... -
Protracted dormancy of pre-leukemic stem cells.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2015-11-01)Cancer stem cells can escape therapeutic killing by adopting a quiescent or dormant state. The reversibility of this condition provides the potential for later recurrence or relapse, potentially many years later. We describe ... -
Pseudoprogression in patients with uterine leiomyosarcoma treated with first-line single-agent doxorubicin.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2023-10-01)AIM: To evaluate the incidence of pseudoprogression in patients with metastatic or inoperable uterine leiomyosarcoma (LMS) treated with first-line single-agent doxorubicin. METHODS: The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust ... -
Psychological stress, adverse life events and breast cancer incidence: a cohort investigation in 106,000 women in the United Kingdom.
(BIOMED CENTRAL LTD, 2016-07-15)BACKGROUND: Women diagnosed with breast cancer frequently attribute their cancer to psychological stress, but scientific evidence is inconclusive. We investigated whether experienced frequency of stress and adverse life ... -
Psychosocial challenges and health-related quality of life of adolescents and young adults with hematologic malignancies.
(AMER SOC HEMATOLOGY, 2018-07-26)Adolescents and young adults (AYAs) occupy a unique place within the hematologic malignancy community due to the challenges they face related to their disease biology and physical, psychosocial, and economic circumstances, ... -
Psychosocial effects of whole-body MRI screening in adult high-risk pathogenic TP53 mutation carriers: a case-controlled study (SIGNIFY).
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-04-01)BACKGROUND: Germline TP53 gene pathogenic variants (pv) cause a very high lifetime risk of developing cancer, almost 100% for women and 75% for men. In the UK, annual MRI breast screening is recommended for female TP53 pv ... -
Psychosocial impact of undergoing prostate cancer screening for men with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations.
(WILEY, 2019-02-01)OBJECTIVES: To report the baseline results of a longitudinal psychosocial study that forms part of the IMPACT study, a multi-national investigation of targeted prostate cancer (PCa) screening among men with a known pathogenic ... -
Psychosocial morbidity in TP53 mutation carriers: is whole-body cancer screening beneficial?
(SPRINGER, 2017-07-01)Germline TP53 mutation carriers are at high risk of developing a range of cancers. Effective cancer risk management is an important issue for these individuals. We assessed the psychosocial impact in TP53 mutation carriers ... -
PTEN inactivation has distinct effects on the signalling properties of EGFR and MET and their response to kinase inhibitors
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2020-09-30)Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are a family of cell-surface receptors that play a major role in regulating pro-proliferative and pro-survival signalling pathways, such as the Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K/Akt) pathway. ... -
Pten Regulates Epithelial Cytodifferentiation during Prostate Development.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2015-06-15)Gene expression and functional studies have indicated that the molecular programmes involved in prostate development are also active in prostate cancer. PTEN has been implicated in human prostate cancer and is frequently ... -
Pubertal development and prostate cancer risk: Mendelian randomization study in a population-based cohort.
(BMC, 2016-04-04)BACKGROUND: Epidemiological studies have observed a positive association between an earlier age at sexual development and prostate cancer, but markers of sexual maturation in boys are imprecise and observational estimates ... -
Public preferences for delayed or immediate antibiotic prescriptions in UK primary care: A choice experiment.
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2021-08-01)BACKGROUND: Delayed (or "backup") antibiotic prescription, where the patient is given a prescription but advised to delay initiating antibiotics, has been shown to be effective in reducing antibiotic use in primary care. ... -
Public resources for chemical probes: the journey so far and the road ahead.
(Future Science Ltd, 2019-11-28)High-quality small molecule chemical probes are extremely valuable for biological research and target validation. However, frequent use of flawed small-molecule inhibitors produces misleading results and diminishes the ... -
Publisher Correction: Cancer genetics, precision prevention and a call to action.
(2019-01)In the version of this article originally published, there was an error in the second-to-last sentence of the abstract. In this sentence, the final phrase "to identify carriers of first-wave gene mutation carriers" should ... -
Pulsed focused ultrasound can improve the anti-cancer effects of immune checkpoint inhibitors in murine pancreatic cancer.
(ROYAL SOC, 2021-07-07)Pulsed high-intensity focused ultrasound (pHIFU) uses acoustic pressure to physically disrupt tumours. The aim of this study was to investigate whether pHIFU can be used in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors ... -
