Characterisation of tumour microenvironment remodelling following oncogene inhibition in preclinical studies with imaging mass cytometry.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2021-10-08)
Mouse models are critical in pre-clinical studies of cancer therapy, allowing dissection of mechanisms through chemical and genetic manipulations that are not feasible in the clinical setting. In studies of the tumour ...
Genetically predicted physical activity levels are associated with lower colorectal cancer risk: a Mendelian randomisation study.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2021-03-30)
BACKGROUND: We conducted a Mendelian randomisation (MR) study to investigate whether physical activity (PA) causes a reduction of colorectal cancer risk and to understand the contributions of effects mediated through changes ...
A phase 1/2 study of the combination of acalabrutinib and vistusertib in patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell malignancies.
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2021-07-15)
In a phase 1b study of acalabrutinib (a covalent Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor) in combination with vistusertib (a dual mTORC1/2 inhibitor) in patients with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), ...
Bromodomain and extra-terminal inhibitors-A consensus prioritisation after the Paediatric Strategy Forum for medicinal product development of epigenetic modifiers in children-ACCELERATE.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2021-02-16)
Based on biology and pre-clinical data, bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET) inhibitors have at least three potential roles in paediatric malignancies: NUT (nuclear protein in testis) carcinomas, MYC/MYCN-driven cancers and ...
Early-Stage Glottic Squamous Cell Carcinoma in the Era of Image-Guided Radiotherapy.
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2021-09-20)
Early-stage squamous cell cancer (SCC) of the glottis has a good prognosis. Therefore, patients have long survival outcomes and may potentially suffer from late toxicities of radiotherapy. Radiotherapy with a conventional ...
Systematic literature review for the association of biomarkers with efficacy of anti-PD-1 inhibitors in advanced melanoma.
(FUTURE MEDICINE LTD, 2021-03-30)
Aim: Summarize the literature assessing biomarkers in predicting efficacy of anti-PD-1 therapy for patients with high-risk unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Materials & methods: Relevant studies were identified via a ...
RAMPART: A model for a regulatory-ready academic-led phase III trial in the adjuvant renal cell carcinoma setting.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2021-09-16)
The development of therapeutics in oncology is a highly active research area for the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, but also has a strong academic base. Many new agents have been developed in recent years, ...
Cannabinoids in the landscape of cancer.
(SPRINGER, 2021-07-14)
INTRODUCTION: Cannabinoids are a group of terpenophenolic compounds derived from the Cannabis sativa L. plant. There is a growing body of evidence from cell culture and animal studies in support of cannabinoids possessing ...
Avapritinib in Patients With Advanced Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors Following at Least Three Prior Lines of Therapy.
(WILEY, 2021-02-01)
BACKGROUND: Most gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) driven by KIT or platelet-derived growth factor receptor A (PDGFRA) mutations develop resistance to available tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatments. NAVIGATOR ...
