Clinical and immunologic implications of COVID-19 in patients with melanoma and renal cell carcinoma receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors.
The clinical and immunologic implications of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic for patients with cancer receiving systemic anticancer therapy have introduced a multitude of clinical challenges and academic controversies. This review ...
Combining DNA damaging therapeutics with immunotherapy: more haste, less speed.
(2018-02)
The idea that chemotherapy can be used in combination with immunotherapy may seem somewhat counterproductive, as it can theoretically eliminate the immune cells needed for antitumour immunity. However, much preclinical ...
Effectiveness and safety of immunotherapy in NSCLC patients with ECOG PS score ≥2 - Systematic review and meta-analysis.
Background Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are standard of care in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), however their status in patients with poor performance status (PS) is poorly defined. We aimed to evaluate ...
The PI3K Pathway at the Crossroads of Cancer and the Immune System: Strategies for Next Generation Immunotherapy Combinations.
(2018-01)
Immunotherapy has led to a paradigm shift in the treatment of some malignancies, providing long-term, durable responses for a subset of patients with advanced cancers. Increasingly, research has identified links between ...
Biological effects of combination therapy with oncolytic reovirus and palbociclib
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-09-30)
Reovirus type 3 Dearing (RtD3) is an oncolytic dsRNA virus with limited single-agent activity in clinical studies but has potential for use in combination regimens. Herein, I sought to discover synergistic drug-virotherapy ...
Towards Precision Medicine in the Clinic: From Biomarker Discovery to Novel Therapeutics.
(2017-01)
Precision medicine continues to be the benchmark to which we strive in cancer research. Seeking out actionable aberrations that can be selectively targeted by drug compounds promises to optimize treatment efficacy and ...
Development of molecularly targeted agents and immunotherapies in small cell lung cancer.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2016-06-01)
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a smoking-induced malignancy with multiple toxin-associated mutations, which accounts for 15% of all lung cancers. It remains a clinical challenge with a rapid doubling time, early dissemination ...
Mechanism and non-mechanism based imaging biomarkers for assessing biological response to treatment in non-small cell lung cancer.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2016-05-01)
Therapeutic options in locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) have expanded in the past decade to include a palate of targeted interventions such as high dose targeted thermal ablations, radiotherapy and growing ...
