Germline MBD4 deficiency causes a multi-tumor predisposition syndrome.
(CELL PRESS, 2022-05-05)
We report an autosomal recessive, multi-organ tumor predisposition syndrome, caused by bi-allelic loss-of-function germline variants in the base excision repair (BER) gene MBD4. We identified five individuals with bi-allelic ...
Addition of nintedanib or placebo to neoadjuvant gemcitabine and cisplatin in locally advanced muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NEOBLADE): a double-blind, randomised, phase 2 trial.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2022-05-01)
BACKGROUND: Recurrence is common after neoadjuvant chemotherapy and radical treatment for muscle-invasive bladder cancer. We investigated the effect of adding nintedanib to neoadjuvant chemotherapy on response and survival ...
Ixazomib with cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone in relapsed or refractory myeloma: MUKeight phase II randomised controlled trial results.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2022-04-01)
The all-oral combination of ixazomib, cyclophosphamide, and dexamethasone (ICD) is well tolerated and effective in newly diagnosed and relapsed multiple myeloma (MM). We carried out MUKeight, a randomised, controlled, open, ...
Primary radiotherapy and deep inferior epigastric perforator flap reconstruction for patients with breast cancer (PRADA): a multicentre, prospective, non-randomised, feasibility study.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2022-04-07)
BACKGROUND: Radiotherapy before mastectomy and autologous free-flap breast reconstruction can avoid adverse radiation effects on healthy donor tissues and delays to adjuvant radiotherapy. However, evidence for this treatment ...
Prostate Volume Changes during Extreme and Moderately Hypofractionated Magnetic Resonance Image-guided Radiotherapy.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE LONDON, 2022-04-22)
AIMS: Prostate morphological changes during external beam radiotherapy are poorly understood. Excellent soft-tissue visualisation offered by magnetic resonance image-guided radiotherapy (MRIgRT) provides an opportunity to ...
How can we recruit more men of African or African-Caribbean ancestry into our research? Co-creating a video to raise awareness of prostate cancer risk and the PROFILE study.
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2022-04-18)
BACKGROUND: Men of African ancestry are at increased risk of developing prostate cancer (PrCa) compared to men from other backgrounds. The PROFILE study aims to understand whether genetic information can better target who ...
Resistance to DNA repair inhibitors in cancer.
(WILEY, 2022-05-14)
The DNA damage response (DDR) represents a complex network of proteins which detect and repair DNA damage, thereby maintaining the integrity of the genome and preventing the transmission of mutations and rearranged chromosomes ...
OX40 and 4-1BB delineate distinct immune profiles in sarcoma.
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2022-12-31)
Systemic relapse after radiotherapy and surgery is the major cause of disease-related mortality in sarcoma patients. Combining radiotherapy and immunotherapy is under investigation as a means to improve response rates. ...
Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen Expression and Response to DNA Damaging Agents in Prostate Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2022-07-15)
PURPOSE: Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) targeting therapies such as Lutetium-177 (177Lu)-PSMA-617 are affecting outcomes from metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). However, a significant subset ...
A phase space model of a Versa HD linear accelerator for application to Monte Carlo dose calculation in a real-time adaptive workflow.
(WILEY, 2022-09-01)
PURPOSE: This study aims to develop and validate a simple geometric model of the accelerator head, from which a particle phase space can be calculated for application to fast Monte Carlo dose calculation in real-time ...
