Afatinib for the Treatment of NSCLC Harboring Uncommon EGFR Mutations: A Database of 693 Cases.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2020-05-01)
INTRODUCTION: Limited clinical data are available regarding the efficacy of EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR TKIs) in patients with NSCLC harboring uncommon EGFR mutations. This pooled analysis assessed the activity ...
RAMPART: A phase III multi-arm multi-stage trial of adjuvant checkpoint inhibitors in patients with resected primary renal cell carcinoma (RCC) at high or intermediate risk of relapse.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2021-09-16)
BACKGROUND: 20-60% of patients with initially locally advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) develop metastatic disease despite optimal surgical excision. Adjuvant strategies have been tested in RCC including cytokines, ...
A Review of the Metrics Used to Assess Auto-Contouring Systems in Radiotherapy
(Elsevier BV, 2023-01-31)
A Case Report on Longitudinal Collection of Tumour Biopsies for Gene Expression-Based Tumour Microenvironment Analysis from Pancreatic Cancer Patients Treated with Endoscopic Ultrasound Guided Radiofrequency Ablation.
(MDPI, 2022-09-21)
BACKGROUND: Most patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) are metastatic at presentation with dismal prognosis warranting improved systemic therapy options. Longitudinal sampling for the assessment of treatment ...
Very large hidden genetic diversity in one single tumor: evidence for tumors-in-tumor.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2022-12-12)
Despite the concern of within-tumor genetic diversity, this diversity is in fact limited by the kinship among cells in the tumor. Indeed, genomic studies have amply supported the 'Nowell dogma' whereby cells of the same ...
Outcomes of Different Quality of Life Assessment Modalities After Breast Cancer Therapy: A Network Meta-analysis.
(AMER MEDICAL ASSOC, 2023-06-01)
IMPORTANCE: Improvement in clinical understanding of the priorities of patients with breast cancer (BC) regarding postoperative aesthetic outcomes (AOs) is needed. OBJECTIVE: To assess expert panel and computerized evaluation ...
Impact of pharmacogenomic DPYD variant guided dosing on toxicity in patients receiving fluoropyrimidines for gastrointestinal cancers in a high-volume tertiary centre.
(BMC, 2023-04-26)
BACKGROUND: Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) is a key enzyme in the metabolism of fluoropyrimidines. Variations in the encoding DPYD gene are associated with severe fluoropyrimidine toxicity and up-front dose reductions ...
A treatment planning study of combined carbon ion-beam plus photon intensity-modulated radiotherapy.
(ELSEVIER, 2020-07-01)
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Combined photon intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and sequential dose-escalated carbon ion beam therapy (IBT) is a technically advanced treatment option for head and neck malignancies. We ...
Properties of non-coding mutation hotspots as urinary biomarkers for bladder cancer detection.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2023-01-19)
Mutations at specific hotspots in non-coding regions of ADGRG6, PLEKHS1, WDR74, TBC1D12 and LEPROTL1 frequently occur in bladder cancer (BC). These mutations could function as biomarkers for the non-invasive detection of ...
