Germline BRCA mutation and outcome in young-onset breast cancer (POSH): a prospective cohort study.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2018-02-01)
BACKGROUND: Retrospective studies provide conflicting interpretations of the effect of inherited genetic factors on the prognosis of patients with breast cancer. The primary aim of this study was to determine the effect ...
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 ...
The impact of 2D cine MR imaging parameters on automated tumor and organ localization for MR-guided real-time adaptive radiotherapy.
(IOP PUBLISHING LTD, 2018-11-22)
2D cine MR imaging may be utilized to monitor rapidly moving tumors and organs-at-risk for real-time adaptive radiotherapy. This study systematically investigates the impact of geometric imaging parameters on the ability ...
The National Cancer Institute Cohort Consortium: An International Pooling Collaboration of 58 Cohorts from 20 Countries.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2018-11-01)
Cohort studies have been central to the establishment of the known causes of cancer. To dissect cancer etiology in more detail-for instance, for personalized risk prediction and prevention, assessment of risks of subtypes ...
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 ...
Loss of heterozygosity as a marker of homologous repair deficiency in multiple myeloma: a role for PARP inhibition?
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-07-01)
PARP inhibitors can induce synthetic lethality in tumors characterized by homologous recombination deficiency (HRD), which can be detected by evaluating genome-wide loss of heterozygosity (LOH). Multiple myeloma (MM) is a ...
The genomic landscape of plasma cells in systemic light chain amyloidosis.
(AMER SOC HEMATOLOGY, 2018-12-27)
Breast Cancer Risk After Recent Childbirth: A Pooled Analysis of 15 Prospective Studies.
(AMER COLL PHYSICIANS, 2018-12-11)
BACKGROUND: Parity is widely recognized as protective for breast cancer, but breast cancer risk may be increased shortly after childbirth. Whether this risk varies with breastfeeding, family history of breast cancer, or ...
Noncoding RNA in Cholangiocarcinoma.
(THIEME MEDICAL PUBL INC, 2019-02-01)
Cholangiocarcinomas (CCAs) are tumors with a dismal prognosis. Early diagnosis is a key challenge because of the lack of specific symptoms, and the curability rate is low due to the difficulty in achieving a radical resection ...
Toward personalized treatment in multiple myeloma based on molecular characteristics.
(AMER SOC HEMATOLOGY, 2019-02-14)
To date, the choice of therapy for an individual multiple myeloma patient has been based on clinical factors such as age and comorbidities. The widespread evolution, validation, and clinical utilization of molecular ...
