Survival with Olaparib in Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer.
(MASSACHUSETTS MEDICAL SOC, 2020-12-10)
BACKGROUND: We previously reported that olaparib led to significantly longer imaging-based progression-free survival than the physician's choice of enzalutamide or abiraterone among men with metastatic castration-resistant ...
Protein-altering germline mutations implicate novel genes related to lung cancer development.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-05-11)
Few germline mutations are known to affect lung cancer risk. We performed analyses of rare variants from 39,146 individuals of European ancestry and investigated gene expression levels in 7,773 samples. We find a large-effect ...
Discovery of Potent, Selective, and Orally Bioavailable Small-Molecule Modulators of the Mediator Complex-Associated Kinases CDK8 and CDK19.
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2016-02-11)
The Mediator complex-associated cyclin-dependent kinase CDK8 has been implicated in human disease, particularly in colorectal cancer where it has been reported as a putative oncogene. Here we report the discovery of 109 ...
Meta-analysis of five genome-wide association studies identifies multiple new loci associated with testicular germ cell tumor.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2017-07-01)
The international Testicular Cancer Consortium (TECAC) combined five published genome-wide association studies of testicular germ cell tumor (TGCT; 3,558 cases and 13,970 controls) to identify new susceptibility loci. We ...
A seven-Gene Signature assay improves prognostic risk stratification of perioperative chemotherapy treated gastroesophageal cancer patients from the MAGIC trial.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2018-12-01)
BACKGROUND: Following neoadjuvant chemotherapy for operable gastroesophageal cancer, lymph node metastasis is the only validated prognostic variable; however, within lymph node groups there is still heterogeneity with risk ...
The genomic landscape of plasma cells in systemic light chain amyloidosis.
(AMER SOC HEMATOLOGY, 2018-12-27)
Does age matter? A comparison of health-related quality of life issues of adolescents and young adults with cancer.
(WILEY, 2018-11-01)
OBJECTIVE: Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) concerns of adolescents and young adults (AYAs) aged 14-25 years were compared with those of older adults (26-60 years) with cancer. METHODS: AYAs and older adults receiving ...
Toxicity and Patient-Reported Outcomes of a Phase 2 Randomized Trial of Prostate and Pelvic Lymph Node Versus Prostate only Radiotherapy in Advanced Localised Prostate Cancer (PIVOTAL).
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2019-03-01)
PURPOSE: To establish the toxicity profile of high-dose pelvic lymph node intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and to assess whether it is safely deliverable at multiple centers. METHODS AND MATERIALS: In this phase ...
Circulating Metabolic Biomarkers of Screen-Detected Prostate Cancer in the ProtecT Study.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2019-01-01)
BACKGROUND: Whether associations between circulating metabolites and prostate cancer are causal is unknown. We report on the largest study of metabolites and prostate cancer (2,291 cases and 2,661 controls) and appraise ...
Age-related sarcoma patient experience: results from a national survey in England.
(BMC, 2018-10-17)
BACKGROUND: Sarcomas are rare, heterogeneous tumours affecting patients of any age. Previous surveys describe that sarcoma patients report a significantly worse experience than those with common cancers. Consequently, ...
