Lifileucel, a Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocyte Therapy, in Metastatic Melanoma.
(2021-05-12)
Purpose Effective treatment options are limited for patients with advanced (metastatic or unresectable) melanoma who progress after immune checkpoint inhibitors and targeted therapies. Adoptive cell therapy using ...
The molecular pathology of infant gliomas
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-04-30)
Infant high grade gliomas appear clinically distinct from their counterparts in older children, indicating that histopathologic grading may not accurately reflect the biology of these tumours. I have collected 241 cases ...
Investigating roles of the SWI/SNF complex subunits in genome stability, chromatin organisation, innate immune signalling and replication stress
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-12-31)
The alterations of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodelling complex subunits happen in 30% of malignancies. The exact mechanisms by which SWI/SNF alterations contribute to tumourigenesis are still not entirely clear. Here, I ...
Diagnostic Accuracy of FEC-PET/CT, FDG-PET/CT, and Diffusion-Weighted MRI in Detection of Nodal Metastases in Surgically Treated Endometrial and Cervical Carcinoma.
(2021-09-15)
Purpose Preoperative nodal staging is important for planning treatment in cervical cancer and endometrial cancer, but remains challenging. We compare nodal staging accuracy of 18 F-ethyl-choline-(FEC)-PET/CT, 18 ...
Applications of liquid biopsies in metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2020-02-29)
Despite many recent advances, treating advanced prostate cancer (PC) remains clinically challenging. The need for vaildated circulating biomarkers is well recognised in almost all cancers, including in PC. Whilst circulating ...
Identification of novel targets for the treatment of endocrine-resistant breast cancer
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2022-05-31)
While endocrine therapy is an effective, well-tolerated treatment for oestrogen receptor positive (ER-positive) breast cancer, a large proportion of initial responders will develop hormone therapy resistance, and relapse. ...
Biomarkers of therapy response and resistance in clear cell renal cell carcinoma AND Adaptive immune response to SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 vaccines in cancer patients
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2022-04-30)
The cornerstone of treatment for metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) are anti-VEGF and/or immune checkpoint inhibitors (CPI). However, there are no clinically implemented predictive biomarkers in any therapeutic ...
Four-dimensional imaging for radiotherapy planning in children and teenagers
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-02-28)
Respiratory-related organ motion (RROM) is a potential source of geometric uncertainty in RT planning and delivery. Approaches to mitigate its effects are well described in adults. For example, four-dimensional computed ...
Estrogen and Progesterone Receptor Testing in Breast Cancer: American Society of Clinical Oncology/College of American Pathologists Guideline Update.
(2020-05)
PURPOSE.—:To update key recommendations of the American Society of Clinical Oncology/College of American Pathologists estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PgR) testing in breast cancer guideline. METHODS.—:A ...
Systemic Radiotherapy of Bone Metastases With Radionuclides.
(2021-02)
Treatments of bone metastases using radionuclides are now well established in oncology. It is also a field that continues to develop. This article reviews the evidence base that led to the approval of strontium-89 and ...
