DNA-PK controls Apollo's access to leading-end telomeres.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2024-05-08)
The complex formed by Ku70/80 and DNA-PKcs (DNA-PK) promotes the synapsis and the joining of double strand breaks (DSBs) during canonical non-homologous end joining (c-NHEJ). In c-NHEJ during V(D)J recombination, DNA-PK ...
Nivolumab Combination Therapy in Advanced Esophageal Squamous-Cell Carcinoma.
<h4>Background</h4>First-line chemotherapy for advanced esophageal squamous-cell carcinoma results in poor outcomes. The monoclonal antibody nivolumab has shown an overall survival benefit over chemotherapy in previously ...
Safety and efficacy of durvalumab with R-CHOP or R<sup>2</sup>-CHOP in untreated, high-risk DLBCL: a phase 2, open-label trial.
(2021-11-19)
Patients with high-risk diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) have poor outcomes following first-line cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone, and rituximab (R-CHOP). Evidence shows chemotherapy and immune ...
Salvage stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for intraprostatic relapse after prostate cancer radiotherapy: An ESTRO ACROP Delphi consensus.
<h4>Background and purpose</h4>Between 30% and 47% of patients treated with definitive radiotherapy (RT) for prostate cancer are at risk of intraprostatic recurrence during follow-up. Re-irradiation with stereotactic body ...
Aspirin in patients admitted to hospital with COVID-19 (RECOVERY): a randomised, controlled, open-label, platform trial.
<h4>Background</h4>Aspirin has been proposed as a treatment for COVID-19 on the basis of its anti-thrombotic properties. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of aspirin in patients admitted to hospital with ...
Brigatinib vs alectinib in crizotinib-resistant advanced anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive non-small-cell lung cancer (ALTA-3).
Crizotinib is highly efficacious and more tolerable than chemotherapy for ALK<sup>+</sup> non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but its progression-free survival benefit and intracranial efficacy have limitations. Head-to-head ...
Abiraterone in "High-" and "Low-risk" Metastatic Hormone-sensitive Prostate Cancer.
(ELSEVIER, 2019-12-01)
BACKGROUND: Abiraterone acetate received licencing for use in only "high-risk" metastatic hormone-naïve prostate cancer (mHNPC) following the LATITUDE trial findings. However, a "risk"-related effect was not seen in the ...
Nilotinib in KIT-driven advanced melanoma: Results from the phase II single-arm NICAM trial
(CELL PRESS, 2024-03-19)
PARP Inhibitors - Trapped in a Toxic Love Affair.
It is often the case that when an investigational cancer drug first enters clinical development, its precise mechanism of action is unclear. This was the case for PARP inhibitors (PARPi) used to treat homologous ...
Magnetic resonance linear accelerator technology and adaptive radiation therapy: An overview for clinicians.
Radiation therapy (RT) continues to play an important role in the treatment of cancer. Adaptive RT (ART) is a novel method through which RT treatments are evolving. With the ART approach, computed tomography or magnetic ...
