An environmentally friendly alternative to single-use plastics for radiotherapy bladder preparation.
(Elsevier BV, 2021-06-01)
More than 60,000 plastic cups were used annually for bladder preparation in one radiotherapy centre. As an alternative, patients were provided with a specifically designed reusable water bottle, aiming to reduce waste and ...
Antibodies against endogenous retroviruses promote lung cancer immunotherapy.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2023-04-20)
B cells are frequently found in the margins of solid tumours as organized follicles in ectopic lymphoid organs called tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS)1,2. Although TLS have been found to correlate with improved patient ...
Preclinical Three-Dimensional Vibrational Shear Wave Elastography for Mapping of Tumour Biomechanical Properties In Vivo.
(MDPI, 2022-10-03)
Preclinical investigation of the biomechanical properties of tissues and their treatment-induced changes are essential to support drug-discovery, clinical translation of biomarkers of treatment response, and studies of ...
Epithelial-mesenchymal plasticity determines estrogen receptor positive breast cancer dormancy and epithelial reconversion drives recurrence.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-08-25)
More than 70% of human breast cancers (BCs) are estrogen receptor α-positive (ER+). A clinical challenge of ER+ BC is that they can recur decades after initial treatments. Mechanisms governing latent disease remain elusive ...
Immuno-PET Imaging of Tumour PD-L1 Expression in Glioblastoma.
(MDPI, 2023-06-09)
There is no established method to assess the PD-L1 expression in brain tumours. Therefore, we investigated the suitability of affibody molecule (ZPD-L1) radiolabelled with F-18 (Al18F) and Ga-68 to measure the expression ...
TGFβ-mediated MMP13 secretion drives myoepithelial cell dependent breast cancer progression.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2023-03-02)
Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is a non-obligate precursor of invasive breast cancer. Virtually all women with DCIS are treated, despite evidence suggesting up to half would remain with stable, non-threatening, disease. ...
A Phase 1b Study Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability, and Immunogenicity of CMB305, a Lentiviral-Based Prime-Boost Vaccine Regimen, in Patients with Locally Advanced, Relapsed, or Metastatic Cancer Expressing NY-ESO-1.
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2020-11-19)
Preclinical data suggest that a "prime-boost" vaccine regimen using a target-expressing lentiviral vector for priming, followed by a recombinant protein boost, may be effective against cancer; however, this strategy has ...
The influence of procedural volume on short-term outcomes for robotic pancreatoduodenectomy-a cohort study and a learning curve analysis.
(SPRINGER, 2023-03-08)
BACKGROUND: An increasing number of robotic pancreatoduodenectomies (RPD) are reported, however, questions remain on the number of procedures needed for gaining technical proficiency in RPD. Therefore, we aimed to assess ...
RELAY, Ramucirumab Plus Erlotinib (RAM+ERL) in Untreated Metastatic EGFR-Mutant NSCLC (EGFR+ NSCLC): Association Between TP53 Status and Clinical Outcome.
(Elsevier BV, 2023-03-21)
BACKGROUND: Ramucirumab plus erlotinib (RAM+ERL) demonstrated superior progression-free survival (PFS) in RELAY, a randomised Phase III trial in patients with untreated, metastatic, EGFR-mutated, non-small-cell lung cancer ...
