Genome-wide interaction analysis of menopausal hormone therapy use and breast cancer risk among 62,370 women.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-04-13)
Use of menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) is associated with increased risk for breast cancer. However, the relevant mechanisms and its interaction with genetic variants are not fully understood. We conducted a genome-wide ...
Identifying local authority need for, and uptake of, school-based physical activity promotion in England-a cluster analysis.
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2022-08-25)
BACKGROUND: School-based physical activity interventions such as The Daily Mile (TDM) are widely promoted in children's physical activity guidance. However, targeting such interventions to areas of greatest need is challenging ...
'You give me fever!': are health services ready for immune cell engager therapy in advanced solid malignancies?
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2022-12-01)
Immune cell engager therapeutic strategies using bioengineered molecules to redirect immune cells into tumor are starting to demonstrate promising clinical activity in multiple early phase trials across numerous targets ...
WASp modulates RPA function on single-stranded DNA in response to replication stress and DNA damage.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-06-29)
Perturbation in the replication-stress response (RSR) and DNA-damage response (DDR) causes genomic instability. Genomic instability occurs in Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS), a primary immunodeficiency disorder, yet the ...
Radiotherapy to the prostate for men with metastatic prostate cancer in the UK and Switzerland: Long-term results from the STAMPEDE randomised controlled trial.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2022-06-01)
BACKGROUND: STAMPEDE has previously reported that radiotherapy (RT) to the prostate improved overall survival (OS) for patients with newly diagnosed prostate cancer with low metastatic burden, but not those with high-burden ...
An Immunogenic Model of KRAS-Mutant Lung Cancer Enables Evaluation of Targeted Therapy and Immunotherapy Combinations.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2022-10-04)
UNLABELLED: Mutations in oncogenes such as KRAS and EGFR cause a high proportion of lung cancers. Drugs targeting these proteins cause tumor regression but ultimately fail to elicit cures. As a result, there is an intense ...
Immunosuppressive niche engineering at the onset of human colorectal cancer.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-04-04)
The evolutionary dynamics of tumor initiation remain undetermined, and the interplay between neoplastic cells and the immune system is hypothesized to be critical in transformation. Colorectal cancer (CRC) presents a unique ...
ESMO recommendations on the use of circulating tumour DNA assays for patients with cancer: a report from the ESMO Precision Medicine Working Group.
(ELSEVIER, 2022-08-01)
Circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) assays conducted on plasma are rapidly developing a strong evidence base for use in patients with cancer. The European Society for Medical Oncology convened an expert working group to review ...
DIPG Harbors Alterations Targetable by MEK Inhibitors, with Acquired Resistance Mechanisms Overcome by Combinatorial Inhibition.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2022-03-01)
UNLABELLED: The survival of children with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) remains dismal, with new treatments desperately needed. In a prospective biopsy-stratified clinical trial, we combined detailed molecular ...
Chemotherapy and gene expression profiling in older early luminal breast cancer patients: An International Society of Geriatric Oncology systematic review.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2022-09-01)
BACKGROUND: The benefit of chemotherapy for older patients with hormone receptor (HR)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative early breast cancer (EBC) is a key area of debate. Gene expression ...
