Targeting Bromodomain and Extra-Terminal (BET) Family Proteins in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (CRPC).
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2018-07-01)
Purpose: Persistent androgen receptor (AR) signaling drives castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) and confers resistance to AR-targeting therapies. Novel therapeutic strategies to overcome this are urgently required. ...
Impact of mutational profiles on response of primary oestrogen receptor-positive breast cancers to oestrogen deprivation.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2016-11-09)
Pre-surgical studies allow study of the relationship between mutations and response of oestrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer to aromatase inhibitors (AIs) but have been limited to small biopsies. Here in phase I ...
Adjuvant Olaparib for Patients with BRCA1- or BRCA2-Mutated Breast Cancer.
(MASSACHUSETTS MEDICAL SOC, 2021-06-24)
BACKGROUND: Poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase inhibitors target cancers with defects in homologous recombination repair by synthetic lethality. New therapies are needed to reduce recurrence in patients with ...
PARP Inhibitors - Trapped in a Toxic Love Affair.
It is often the case that when an investigational cancer drug first enters clinical development, its precise mechanism of action is unclear. This was the case for PARP inhibitors (PARPi) used to treat homologous ...
The kinase polypharmacology landscape of clinical PARP inhibitors.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-02-17)
Polypharmacology plays an important role in defining response and adverse effects of drugs. For some mechanisms, experimentally mapping polypharmacology is commonplace, although this is typically done within the same protein ...
Intratumoral therapies in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma: A systematic review and future perspectives.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2024-06-01)
BACKGROUND: Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) presents an ideal scenario for intratumoral therapies (IT), due to its local recurrence pattern and frequent superficial extension. IT therapies aim to effect tumor ...
Selective protection of human cardiomyocytes from anthracycline cardiotoxicity by small molecule inhibitors of MAP4K4.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-07-21)
Given the poor track record to date of animal models for creating cardioprotective drugs, human pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hPSC-CMs) have been proposed as a therapeutically relevant human platform to ...
Promising novel therapeutic approaches in the management of gastrointestinal stromal tumors.
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2017-01-01)
Primary and secondary resistance to currently available licensed tyrosine kinase inhibitors poses a real clinical challenge in the management of advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors. Within the frame of early phase ...
Circulating Cell-Free DNA to Guide Prostate Cancer Treatment with PARP Inhibition.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2017-09-01)
Biomarkers for more precise patient care are needed in metastatic prostate cancer. We have reported a phase II trial (TOPARP-A) of the PARP inhibitor olaparib in metastatic prostate cancer, demonstrating antitumor activity ...
Nilotinib in KIT-driven advanced melanoma: Results from the phase II single-arm NICAM trial.
(Elsevier BV, 2024-03-19)
Mucosal (MM) and acral melanomas (AM) are rare melanoma subtypes of unmet clinical need; 15%-20% harbor KIT mutations potentially targeted by small-molecule inhibitors, but none yet approved in melanoma. This multicenter, ...
