Longitudinal Liquid Biopsy and Mathematical Modeling of Clonal Evolution Forecast Time to Treatment Failure in the PROSPECT-C Phase II Colorectal Cancer Clinical Trial.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2018-08-30)
Sequential profiling of plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) holds immense promise for early detection of patient progression. However, how to exploit the predictive power of cfDNA as a liquid biopsy in the clinic remains unclear. ...
Discovery of Selective Estrogen Receptor Covalent Antagonists for the Treatment of ERαWT and ERαMUT Breast Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2018-09-01)
Mutations in estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) that confer resistance to existing classes of endocrine therapies are detected in up to 30% of patients who have relapsed during endocrine treatments. Because a significant ...
Alternative splicing in prostate cancer.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-11-01)
Androgen receptor (AR) splice variants (AR-Vs) have been implicated in the development and progression of metastatic prostate cancer. AR-Vs are truncated isoforms of the AR, a subset of which lack a ligand-binding domain ...
Immunogenomic analyses associate immunological alterations with mismatch repair defects in prostate cancer.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL INVESTIGATION INC, 2018-10-01)
BACKGROUND: Understanding the integrated immunogenomic landscape of advanced prostate cancer (APC) could impact stratified treatment selection. METHODS: Defective mismatch repair (dMMR) status was determined by either loss ...
Driving next-generation autophagy researchers towards translation (DRIVE), an international PhD training program on autophagy.
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2019-02-01)
The European autophagy consortium Driving next-generation autophagy researchers towards translation (DRIVE) held its kick-off meeting in Groningen on the 14th and 15th of June 2018. This Marie Skłodowska-Curie Early Training ...
Height and Body Mass Index as Modifiers of Breast Cancer Risk in BRCA1/2 Mutation Carriers: A Mendelian Randomization Study.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS INC, 2019-04-01)
BACKGROUND: BRCA1/2 mutations confer high lifetime risk of breast cancer, although other factors may modify this risk. Whether height or body mass index (BMI) modifies breast cancer risk in BRCA1/2 mutation carriers remains ...
Large-scale transcriptome-wide association study identifies new prostate cancer risk regions.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2018-10-04)
Although genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for prostate cancer (PrCa) have identified more than 100 risk regions, most of the risk genes at these regions remain largely unknown. Here we integrate the largest PrCa GWAS ...
Starting the fight in the tumor: expert recommendations for the development of human intratumoral immunotherapy (HIT-IT).
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2018-11-01)
A European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO)-sponsored expert meeting was held in Paris on 8 March 2018 which comprised 11 experts from academia, 11 experts from the pharmaceutical industry and 2 clinicians who were ...
A Four-gene Decision Tree Signature Classification of Triple-negative Breast Cancer: Implications for Targeted Therapeutics.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2019-01-01)
The molecular complexity of triple-negative breast cancers (TNBCs) provides a challenge for patient management. We set out to characterize this heterogeneous disease by combining transcriptomics and genomics data, with the ...
Mutational signatures of ionizing radiation in second malignancies.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2016-09-12)
Ionizing radiation is a potent carcinogen, inducing cancer through DNA damage. The signatures of mutations arising in human tissues following in vivo exposure to ionizing radiation have not been documented. Here, we searched ...
