Discovery of naturally occurring ESR1 mutations in breast cancer cell lines modelling endocrine resistance.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2017-11-30)
Resistance to endocrine therapy remains a major clinical problem in breast cancer. Genetic studies highlight the potential role of estrogen receptor-α (ESR1) mutations, which show increased prevalence in the metastatic, ...
Predicting response to radical (chemo)radiotherapy with circulating HPV DNA in locally advanced head and neck squamous carcinoma.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2017-09-05)
BACKGROUND: Following chemo-radiotherapy (CCRT) for human papilloma virus positive (HPV+) locally advanced head and neck cancer, patients frequently undergo unnecessary neck dissection (ND) and/or repeated biopsies for ...
Modeling Therapy Resistance in BRCA1/2-Mutant Cancers.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2017-09-01)
Although PARP inhibitors target BRCA1- or BRCA2-mutant tumor cells, drug resistance is a problem. PARP inhibitor resistance is sometimes associated with the presence of secondary or "revertant" mutations in BRCA1 or BRCA2 ...
