Comparison of protein expression between formalin-fixed core-cut biopsies and surgical excision specimens using a novel multiplex approach.
(2019-06)
Purpose We evaluated whether multiplex protein quantification using antibody bar-coding with photocleavable oligonucleotides (NanoString) can be applied to evaluate protein expression in breast cancer FFPE specimens. We ...
Autoimmunity and Benefit from Trastuzumab Treatment in Breast Cancer: Results from the HERA Trial.
(2019-02)
BACKGROUND/AIM:This study sought to determine whether an autoimmune background could identify patients with HER2-positive early breast cancer (EBC) who derive differential benefit from primary adjuvant trastuzumab-based ...
Calculation of absorbed dose in radiotherapy by solution of the linear Boltzmann transport equations.
(2019-01-10)
Over the last decade, dose calculations which solve the linear Boltzmann transport equations have been introduced into clinical practice and are now in widespread use. However, knowledge in the radiotherapy community ...
A Tool for Shared Decision Making on Referral for Prostate Biopsy in the Primary Care Setting: Integrating Risks of Cancer with Life Expectancy.
(2019-04-22)
Prostate cancer (PCa) testing involves a complex individually based decision making process. It should consider competing risks from other comorbidities when estimating a survival benefit from the early detection of ...
Patient preferences for whole-body MRI or conventional staging pathways in lung and colorectal cancer: a discrete choice experiment.
(2019-07)
Objectives To determine the importance placed by patients on attributes associated with whole-body MRI (WB-MRI) and standard cancer staging pathways and ascertain drivers of preference. Methods Patients recruited to two ...
Toronto Workshop on Late Recurrence in Estrogen Receptor-Positive Breast Cancer: Part 1: Late Recurrence: Current Understanding, Clinical Considerations.
(2019-12)
Disease recurrence (locoregional, distant) exerts a significant clinical impact on the survival of estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer patients. Many of these recurrences occur late, more than 5 years after original ...
The treatment of neuroendocrine prostate cancer; current status and future directions
(FUTURE MEDICINE LTD, 2019-11-01)
Small-molecule targeting of brachyury transcription factor addiction in chordoma.
(2019-02)
Chordoma is a primary bone cancer with no approved therapy 1 . The identification of therapeutic targets in this disease has been challenging due to the infrequent occurrence of clinically actionable somatic mutations in ...
Integration of RNAi and Small Molecule Screens to Identify Targets for Drug Development.
(2019-01)
Cellular models for siRNA and small molecule high-throughput screening have been widely used in the last decade to identify targets for drug discovery. As an example, we present a twofold readout approach based on cell ...
