Extensive mucocutaneous, oesophageal and otic lichen planus secondary to nivolumab therapy.
(Wiley, 2021-03-01)
We report a 73-year-old female with metastatic renal cell carcinoma who developed a widespread lichenoid reaction following nivolumab treatment. The timeline of the reaction strongly correlated with the nivolumab treatment ...
Crossover and rechallenge with pembrolizumab in recurrent patients from the EORTC 1325-MG/Keynote-054 phase III trial, pembrolizumab versus placebo after complete resection of high-risk stage III melanoma.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2021-10-18)
BACKGROUND: In the phase III double-blind European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer 1325/KEYNOTE-054 trial, pembrolizumab improved recurrence-free and distant metastasis-free survival in patients with stage ...
Predicting development of ipilimumab-induced hypophysitis: utility of T4 and TSH index but not TSH.
(SPRINGER, 2020-05-24)
PURPOSE: Ipilimumab, a monoclonal antibody inhibiting CLTA-4, is an established treatment in metastatic melanoma, either alone or in combination with nivolumab, and results in immune mediated adverse events, including ...
Immune reconstitution in children following chemotherapy for acute leukemia.
(Wiley, 2020-07-01)
Although survival rates for pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia are now excellent, this is at the expense of prolonged chemotherapy regimens. We report the long-term immune effects in children treated according to the ...
Association Between Immune-Related Adverse Events and Recurrence-Free Survival Among Patients With Stage III Melanoma Randomized to Receive Pembrolizumab or Placebo: A Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Clinical Trial.
(AMER MEDICAL ASSOC, 2020-04-01)
Importance: Whether immune-related adverse events (irAEs) indicate drug activity in patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors remains unknown. Objective: To investigate the association between irAEs and recurrence-free ...
Common mechanistic pathways in cancer and heart failure. A scientific roadmap on behalf of the Translational Research Committee of the Heart Failure Association (HFA) of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC).
(WILEY, 2020-11-12)
The co-occurrence of cancer and heart failure (HF) represents a significant clinical drawback as each disease interferes with the treatment of the other. In addition to shared risk factors, a growing body of experimental ...
British Society of Gastroenterology endorsed guidance for the management of immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced enterocolitis.
(ELSEVIER INC, 2020-07-01)
Immune checkpoint inhibitors are a novel class of cancer treatment that have improved outcomes for a subset of cancer patients. They work by antagonising inhibitory immune pathways, thereby augmenting immune-mediated ...
Adipocytes disrupt the translational programme of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia to favour tumour survival and persistence.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2021-09-17)
The specific niche adaptations that facilitate primary disease and Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia (ALL) survival after induction chemotherapy remain unclear. Here, we show that Bone Marrow (BM) adipocytes dynamically evolve ...
Y disruption, autosomal hypomethylation and poor male lung cancer survival.
(2021-06-14)
Lung cancer is the most frequent cause of cancer death worldwide. It affects more men than women, and men generally have worse survival outcomes. We compared gene co-expression networks in affected and unaffected lung ...
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 ...
