Expression profiling of single cells and patient cohorts identifies multiple immunosuppressive pathways and an altered NK cell phenotype in glioblastoma.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2020-03-11)
Glioblastoma (GBM) is an aggressive cancer with a very poor prognosis. Generally viewed as weakly immunogenic, GBM responds poorly to current immunotherapies. To understand this problem more clearly we used a combination ...
Standard and Hypofractionated Dose Escalation to Intraprostatic Tumor Nodules in Localized Prostate Cancer: Efficacy and Toxicity in the DELINEATE Trial.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2020-03-15)
PURPOSE: To report a planned analysis of the efficacy and toxicity of dose escalation to the intraprostatic dominant nodule identified on multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging using standard and hypofractionated ...
Evaluating a digital tool for supporting breast cancer patients: a randomized controlled trial protocol (ADAPT).
(BMC, 2020-01-15)
BACKGROUND: There are a growing number of mHealth tools for breast cancer patients but a lack of scientific evidence for their effects. Recent studies have shown a mix of positive and negative impacts on users. Here we ...
Loss of 5'-Methylthioadenosine Phosphorylase (MTAP) is Frequent in High-Grade Gliomas; Nevertheless, it is Not Associated with Higher Tumor Aggressiveness.
(MDPI, 2020-02-20)
The 5'-methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP) gene is located in the chromosomal region 9p21. MTAP deletion is a frequent event in a wide variety of human cancers; however, its biological role in tumorigenesis remains ...
The secreted protease Adamts18 links hormone action to activation of the mammary stem cell niche.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-03-26)
Estrogens and progesterone control breast development and carcinogenesis via their cognate receptors expressed in a subset of luminal cells in the mammary epithelium. How they control the extracellular matrix, important ...
Measuring single cell divisions in human tissues from multi-region sequencing data.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-02-25)
Both normal tissue development and cancer growth are driven by a branching process of cell division and mutation accumulation that leads to intra-tissue genetic heterogeneity. However, quantifying somatic evolution in ...
Inactivation of NF1 Promotes Resistance to EGFR Inhibition in KRAS/NRAS/BRAFV600 -Wild-Type Colorectal Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2020-06-01)
Through the use of an unbiased, genome-scale CRISPR modifier screen, we identified NF1 suppression as a mechanism of resistance to EGFR inhibition in NRAS/KRAS/BRAFV600 -wild-type colorectal cancer cells. Reduced NF1 ...
Rationale and design of the POLEM trial: avelumab plus fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy as adjuvant treatment for stage III mismatch repair deficient or POLE exonuclease domain mutant colon cancer: a phase III randomised study.
(ELSEVIER, 2020-01-01)
BACKGROUND: 10%-15% of early-stage colon cancers harbour either deficient mismatch repair (dMMR), microsatellite instability high (MSI-H) or POLE exonuclease domain mutations, and are characterised by high tumour mutational ...
Lenalidomide, dexamethasone and alemtuzumab or ofatumumab in high-risk chronic lymphocytic leukaemia: final results of the NCRI CLL210 trial.
(FERRATA STORTI FOUNDATION, 2020-12-01)
The Risk of Ovarian Cancer Increases with an Increase in the Lifetime Number of Ovulatory Cycles: An Analysis from the Ovarian Cancer Cohort Consortium (OC3).
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2020-03-01)
Repeated exposure to the acute proinflammatory environment that follows ovulation at the ovarian surface and distal fallopian tube over a woman's reproductive years may increase ovarian cancer risk. To address this, analyses ...
