Is the IDH Mutation a Good Target for Chondrosarcoma Treatment?
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-03-01)
<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Chondrosarcomas are rare cancers of bone that arise from the malignant transformation of cells of chondrocytic lineage. They are known to be resistant to systemic cytotoxic chemotherapy ...
Efficacy of Gemcitabine-based Chemotherapy in Clear Cell Sarcoma of Soft Tissue.
(INT INST ANTICANCER RESEARCH, 2020-12-01)
BACKGROUND/AIM: Clear cell sarcoma (CCS) is an aggressive sarcoma subtype, resistant to conventional anthracycline-based chemotherapy and radiation. The diagnosis is often challenging due to similarities with malignant ...
Optimal Clinical Management and the Molecular Biology of Angiosarcomas.
(MDPI, 2020-11-10)
Angiosarcomas comprise less than 3% of all soft tissue sarcomas but have a poor prognosis. Most angiosarcomas occur without obvious risk factors but secondary angiosarcoma could arise after radiotherapy or chronic lymphedema. ...
Sirolimus for patients with progressive epithelioid hemangioendothelioma.
(WILEY, 2020-10-27)
Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma is an ultrarare soft tissue sarcoma with limited literature to guide treatment. The results from a robust retrospective cohort study support the use of sirolimus for patients who have ...
Data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry (DIA-MS) for proteomic applications in oncology.
(ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY, 2020-10-09)
Data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry (DIA-MS) is a next generation proteomic methodology that generates permanent digital proteome maps offering highly reproducible retrospective analysis of cellular and tissue ...
Rare epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations in non-small cell lung cancer.
(ACADEMIC PRESS LTD- ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2020-04-01)
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations are the second most common oncogenic driver event in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Classical activating mutations (exon 19 deletions and the L858R point mutation) ...
A mouse SWATH-mass spectrometry reference spectral library enables deconvolution of species-specific proteomic alterations in human tumour xenografts.
(COMPANY BIOLOGISTS LTD, 2020-06-03)
SWATH-mass spectrometry (MS) enables accurate and reproducible proteomic profiling in multiple model organisms including the mouse. Here, we present a comprehensive mouse reference spectral library (MouseRefSWATH) that ...
Avapritinib in the treatment of PDGFRA exon 18 mutated gastrointestinal stromal tumors.
(FUTURE MEDICINE LTD, 2020-08-01)
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) can be molecularly classified based on different subtypes including mutations in KIT and PDGFRA. Patients with PDGFRA mutations are an important subgroup that commonly arise in the ...
Tropomyosin receptor kinase inhibitors in the management of sarcomas.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2020-06-05)
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Genetic aberrations resulting in tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) fusion proteins can drive oncogenesis and are postulated to occur in up to 1% of solid tumours. However, TRK fusions in adult sarcomas ...
Targeting the Src Pathway Enhances the Efficacy of Selective FGFR Inhibitors in Urothelial Cancers with FGFR3 Alterations.
(MDPI, 2020-05-01)
Selective FGFR inhibitors such as infigratinib (BGJ398) and erdafitinib (JNJ-42756493) have been evaluated in clinical trials for cancers with FGFR3 molecular alterations, particularly in urothelial carcinoma patients. ...
