Pan-cancer deconvolution of tumour composition using DNA methylation.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-08-13)
The nature and extent of immune cell infiltration into solid tumours are key determinants of therapeutic response. Here, using a DNA methylation-based approach to tumour cell fraction deconvolution, we report the integrated ...
Meta-analysis of tumor- and T cell-intrinsic mechanisms of sensitization to checkpoint inhibition.
(CELL PRESS, 2021-02-04)
Checkpoint inhibitors (CPIs) augment adaptive immunity. Systematic pan-tumor analyses may reveal the relative importance of tumor-cell-intrinsic and microenvironmental features underpinning CPI sensitization. Here, we ...
The melanoma-specific graded prognostic assessment does not adequately discriminate prognosis in a modern population with brain metastases from malignant melanoma.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2015-11-03)
BACKGROUND: The melanoma-specific graded prognostic assessment (msGPA) assigns patients with brain metastases from malignant melanoma to 1 of 4 prognostic groups. It was largely derived using clinical data from patients ...
Clinical outcomes of patients with corticosteroid refractory immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced enterocolitis treated with infliximab.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2021-07-01)
INTRODUCTION: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (CPIs) have changed the treatment landscape for many cancers, but also cause severe inflammatory side effects including enterocolitis. CPI-induced enterocolitis is treated empirically ...
Urine-derived lymphocytes as a non-invasive measure of the bladder tumor immune microenvironment.
(ROCKEFELLER UNIV PRESS, 2018-11-05)
Despite the advances in cancer immunotherapy, only a fraction of patients with bladder cancer exhibit responses to checkpoint blockade, highlighting a need to better understand drug resistance and identify rational ...
Immune Surveillance in Clinical Regression of Preinvasive Squamous Cell Lung Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2020-01-01)
Before squamous cell lung cancer develops, precancerous lesions can be found in the airways. From longitudinal monitoring, we know that only half of such lesions become cancer, whereas a third spontaneously regress. Although ...
Marrow-Infiltrating Regulatory T Cells Correlate with the Presence of Dysfunctional CD4+PD-1+ Cells and Inferior Survival in Patients with Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2020-07-01)
PURPOSE: Immune dysregulation is described in multiple myeloma. While preclinical models suggest a role for altered T-cell immunity in disease progression, the contribution of immune dysfunction to clinical outcomes remains ...
From presentation to paper: Gender disparities in oncological research.
(WILEY, 2020-06-01)
Gender disparities in scientific publications have been identified in oncological research. Oral research presentations at major conferences enhance visibility of presenters. The share of women presenting at such podia is ...
Intratumoural evolutionary landscape of high-risk prostate cancer: the PROGENY study of genomic and immune parameters.
(ELSEVIER, 2017-10-01)
BACKGROUND: Intratumoural heterogeneity (ITH) is well recognised in prostate cancer (PC), but its role in high-risk disease is uncertain. A prospective, single-arm, translational study using targeted multiregion prostate ...
