Undefined familial colorectal cancer and the role of pleiotropism in cancer susceptibility genes.
(SPRINGER, 2016-06-29)
Although family history is a major risk factor for colorectal cancer (CRC) a genetic diagnosis cannot be obtained in over 50 % of familial cases when screened for known CRC cancer susceptibility genes. The genetics of ...
Modeling the prevention of colorectal cancer from the combined impact of host and behavioral risk factors.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-03-01)
PURPOSE: This study investigated the utility of modeling modifiable lifestyle risk factors in addition to genetic variation in colorectal cancer (CRC) screening/prevention. METHODS: We derived a polygenic risk score for ...
Risk of Second Cancer in Hodgkin Lymphoma Survivors and Influence of Family History.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL ONCOLOGY, 2017-05-10)
Purpose Although advances in Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) treatment have led to improved disease-free survival, this has been accompanied by an increased risk of second cancers. We sought to quantify the second cancer risks and ...
Prediction of outcome in newly diagnosed myeloma: a meta-analysis of the molecular profiles of 1905 trial patients.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-01-01)
Robust establishment of survival in multiple myeloma (MM) and its relationship to recurrent genetic aberrations is required as outcomes are variable despite apparent similar staging. We assayed copy number alterations (CNA) ...
Rare disruptive mutations and their contribution to the heritable risk of colorectal cancer.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2016-06-22)
Colorectal cancer (CRC) displays a complex pattern of inheritance. It is postulated that much of the missing heritability of CRC is enshrined in high-impact rare alleles, which are mechanistically and clinically important. ...
Meeting report from the joint IARC-NCI international cancer seminar series: a focus on colorectal cancer.
(ELSEVIER, 2019-04-01)
Despite significant progress in our understanding of the etiology, biology and genetics of colorectal cancer, as well as important clinical advances, it remains the third most frequently diagnosed cancer worldwide and is ...
Daratumumab, Cyclophosphamide, Bortezomib, Lenalidomide, and Dexamethasone as Induction and Extended Consolidation Improves Outcome in Ultra-High-Risk Multiple Myeloma.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2023-08-10)
PURPOSE: The multicenter OPTIMUM (MUKnine) phase II trial investigated daratumumab, low-dose cyclophosphamide, lenalidomide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone (Dara-CVRd) before and after autologous stem-cell transplant (ASCT) ...
Genetically predicted physical activity levels are associated with lower colorectal cancer risk: a Mendelian randomisation study.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2021-03-30)
BACKGROUND: We conducted a Mendelian randomisation (MR) study to investigate whether physical activity (PA) causes a reduction of colorectal cancer risk and to understand the contributions of effects mediated through changes ...
Deciphering associations between three RNA splicing-related genetic variants and lung cancer risk.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-06-30)
Limited efforts have been made in assessing the effect of genome-wide profiling of RNA splicing-related variation on lung cancer risk. In the present study, we first identified RNA splicing-related genetic variants linked ...
Algorithmic considerations when analysing capture Hi-C data.
(2020-01-01)
Chromosome conformation capture methodologies have provided insight into the effect of 3D genomic architecture on gene regulation. Capture Hi-C (CHi-C) is a recent extension of Hi-C that improves the effective resolution ...
