CD73 Blockade Promotes Dendritic Cell Infiltration of Irradiated Tumors and Tumor Rejection.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2020-04-01)
The ability of focal radiotherapy to promote priming of tumor-specific CD8+ T cells and increase responses to immunotherapy is dependent on infiltration of the tumor by Batf3-dependent conventional dendritic cell type 1 ...
Measuring single cell divisions in human tissues from multi-region sequencing data.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-02-25)
Both normal tissue development and cancer growth are driven by a branching process of cell division and mutation accumulation that leads to intra-tissue genetic heterogeneity. However, quantifying somatic evolution in ...
Characterisation and classification of oligometastatic disease: a European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology and European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer consensus recommendation.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2020-01-01)
Oligometastatic disease has been proposed as an intermediate state between localised and systemically metastasised disease. In the absence of randomised phase 3 trials, early clinical studies show improved survival when ...
Combination therapy with oncolytic viruses and immune checkpoint inhibitors.
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2020-06-02)
Introduction: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) have dramatically improved the outcome for cancer patients across multiple tumor types. However the response rates to ICI monotherapy remain relatively low, in part due to ...
Designing and evaluating dose-escalation studies made easy: The MoDEsT web app.
(SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD, 2020-04-01)
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Dose-escalation studies are essential in the early stages of developing novel treatments, when the aim is to find a safe dose for administration in humans. Despite their great importance, many dose-escalation ...
Reprogramming of fatty acid metabolism in cancer.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2020-01-07)
A common feature of cancer cells is their ability to rewire their metabolism to sustain the production of ATP and macromolecules needed for cell growth, division and survival. In particular, the importance of altered fatty ...
Quantification of subclonal selection in cancer from bulk sequencing data.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-05-28)
Subclonal architectures are prevalent across cancer types. However, the temporal evolutionary dynamics that produce tumor subclones remain unknown. Here we measure clone dynamics in human cancers by using computational ...
The role of genomic profiling in adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with advanced cancer participating in phase I clinical trials.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2018-05-01)
INTRODUCTION: Adolescents and young adults (AYAs) diagnosed with cancer between ages 15-39 years may harbour germline variants associated with cancer predisposition. Such variants represent putative therapeutic targets, ...
FDXR is a biomarker of radiation exposure in vivo.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2018-01-15)
Previous investigations in gene expression changes in blood after radiation exposure have highlighted its potential to provide biomarkers of exposure. Here, FDXR transcriptional changes in blood were investigated in humans ...
Combining radiation with hyperthermia: a multiscale model informed by in vitro experiments.
(ROYAL SOC, 2018-01-01)
Combined radiotherapy and hyperthermia offer great potential for the successful treatment of radio-resistant tumours through thermo-radiosensitization. Tumour response heterogeneity, due to intrinsic, or micro-environmentally ...
