Near-InfraRed PhotoImmunoTherapy (NIR-PIT) for the local control of solid cancers: Challenges and potentials for human applications.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2021-05-01)
Near-InfraRed PhotoImmunoTherapy (NIR-PIT) is a novel cancer-targeted treatment effected by a chemical conjugation between a photosensitiser (e.g. the NIR phthalocyanine dye IRDye700DX) and a cancer-targeting moiety (e.g. ...
Assessing the mechanism and therapeutic potential of modulators of the human Mediator complex-associated protein kinases.
(ELIFE SCIENCES PUBLICATIONS LTD, 2016-12-09)
Mediator-associated kinases CDK8/19 are context-dependent drivers or suppressors of tumorigenesis. Their inhibition is predicted to have pleiotropic effects, but it is unclear whether this will impact on the clinical utility ...
Does age matter? A comparison of health-related quality of life issues of adolescents and young adults with cancer.
(WILEY, 2018-11-01)
OBJECTIVE: Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) concerns of adolescents and young adults (AYAs) aged 14-25 years were compared with those of older adults (26-60 years) with cancer. METHODS: AYAs and older adults receiving ...
canSAR: update to the cancer translational research and drug discovery knowledgebase.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2019-01-08)
canSAR (http://cansar.icr.ac.uk) is a public, freely available, integrative translational research and drug discovery knowlegebase. canSAR informs researchers to help solve key bottlenecks in cancer translation and drug ...
Multidisciplinary interventions in a specialist Drug Development Unit to improve family history documentation and onward referral of patients with advanced cancer to cancer genetics services.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2019-06-01)
BACKGROUND: Molecular aberrations in cancer may represent therapeutic targets, and, if arising from the germline, may impact further cancer risk management in patients and their blood relatives. Annually, 600-700 patients ...
Circulating vitamin D concentration and risk of seven cancers: Mendelian randomisation study.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-10-31)
Objective To determine if circulating concentrations of vitamin D are causally associated with risk of cancer.Design Mendelian randomisation study.Setting Large genetic epidemiology networks (the Genetic Associations and ...
ATR Inhibition Potentiates the Radiation-induced Inflammatory Tumor Microenvironment.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2019-06-01)
PURPOSE: ATR inhibitors (ATRi) are in early phase clinical trials and have been shown to sensitize to chemotherapy and radiotherapy preclinically. Limited data have been published about the effect of these drugs on the ...
The immunological consequences of radiation-induced DNA damage.
(WILEY, 2019-04-01)
Historically, our understanding of the cytotoxicity of radiation has centred on tumour cell-autonomous mechanisms of cell death. Here, tumour cell death occurs when a threshold number of radiation-induced non-reparable ...
Recent developments in non-coplanar radiotherapy.
(BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY, 2019-05-01)
This paper gives an overview of recent developments in non-coplanar intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT). Modern linear accelerators are capable of automating motion around ...
3-D Microvascular Imaging Using High Frame Rate Ultrasound and ASAP Without Contrast Agents: Development and Initial In Vivo Evaluation on Nontumor and Tumor Models.
(IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC, 2019-05-01)
Three-dimensional imaging is valuable to noninvasively assess angiogenesis given the complex 3-D architecture of vascular networks. The emergence of high frame rate (HFR) ultrasound, which can produce thousands of images ...
