Optimal acquisition scheme for flow-compensated intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion-weighted imaging in the abdomen: An accurate and precise clinically feasible protocol.
(2020-03)
Purpose Flow-compensated (FC) diffusion-weighted MRI (DWI) for intravoxel-incoherent motion (IVIM) modeling allows for a more detailed description of tissue microvasculature than conventional IVIM. The long acquisition ...
Performance of African-ancestry-specific polygenic hazard score varies according to local ancestry in 8q24.
(2021-06-14)
<h4>Background</h4>We previously developed an African-ancestry-specific polygenic hazard score (PHS46+African) that substantially improved prostate cancer risk stratification in men with African ancestry. The model consists ...
Health-related quality of life and pain with selinexor in patients with advanced dedifferentiated liposarcoma.
(2021-04-15)
Objective: Compare health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of selinexor versus placebo in patients with dedifferentiated liposarcoma. Materials & methods: HRQoL was assessed at baseline and day 1 of each cycle using the ...
Squeezing through the microcirculation: survival adaptations of circulating tumour cells to seed metastasis.
(2021-01)
During metastasis, tumour cells navigating the vascular circulatory system-circulating tumour cells (CTCs)-encounter capillary beds, where they start the process of extravasation. Biomechanical constriction forces exerted ...
Treatment outcomes for small cell carcinoma of the bladder: results from a UK patient retrospective cohort study.
(2021-02-06)
Background Small cell carcinoma of the bladder (SCCB) is rare, accounting for under 1% of all bladder carcinomas. It is aggressive and outcomes are poor due to early metastatic spread. Owing to its rarity, there are ...
Efficacy and Safety of Cabazitaxel Versus Abiraterone or Enzalutamide in Older Patients with Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer in the CARD Study.
(2021-07-14)
Background In the CARD study (NCT02485691), cabazitaxel significantly improved median radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) and overall survival (OS) versus abiraterone/enzalutamide in patients with metastatic ...
The Association of Intraoperative driving pressure with postoperative pulmonary complications in open versus closed abdominal surgery patients - a posthoc propensity score-weighted cohort analysis of the LAS VEGAS study.
(2021-03-19)
<h4>Background</h4>It is uncertain whether the association of the intraoperative driving pressure (ΔP) with postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) depends on the surgical approach during abdominal surgery. Our primary ...
The Urine Biomarker PUR-4 Is Positively Associated with the Amount of Gleason 4 in Human Prostate Cancers.
(2021-11-03)
The Prostate Urine Risk (PUR) biomarker is a four-group classifier for predicting outcome in patients prior to biopsy and for men on active surveillance. The four categories correspond to the probabilities of the presence ...
Impact of COVID-19 on cancer service delivery: results from an international survey of oncology clinicians.
(2020-12)
Objectives: To report clinician-perceived changes to cancer service delivery in response to COVID-19. Design: Multidisciplinary Australasian cancer clinician survey in collaboration with the European Society of Medical ...
PTEN inactivation has distinct effects on the signalling properties of EGFR and MET and their response to kinase inhibitors
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2020-09-30)
Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are a family of cell-surface receptors that play a major role in regulating pro-proliferative and pro-survival signalling pathways, such as the Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K/Akt) pathway. ...
