EpCAMhigh and EpCAMlow circulating tumor cells in metastatic prostate and breast cancer patients.
(Impact Journals, LLC, 2018-11-02)
The presence of high expressing epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAMhigh) circulating tumor cells (CTC) enumerated by CellSearch® in blood of cancer patients is strongly associated with poor prognosis. This raises the ...
Genomic correlates of clinical outcome in advanced prostate cancer.
(NATL ACAD SCIENCES, 2019-06-04)
Heterogeneity in the genomic landscape of metastatic prostate cancer has become apparent through several comprehensive profiling efforts, but little is known about the impact of this heterogeneity on clinical outcome. Here, ...
Multidisciplinary interventions in a specialist Drug Development Unit to improve family history documentation and onward referral of patients with advanced cancer to cancer genetics services.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2019-06-01)
BACKGROUND: Molecular aberrations in cancer may represent therapeutic targets, and, if arising from the germline, may impact further cancer risk management in patients and their blood relatives. Annually, 600-700 patients ...
PARP Inhibitors for Advanced Prostate Cancer: Validating Predictive Biomarkers.
(ELSEVIER, 2019-10-01)
Clinical Utility of Circulating Tumour Cell Androgen Receptor Splice Variant-7 Status in Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer.
(ELSEVIER, 2019-11-01)
BACKGROUND: Detection of androgen receptor splice variant-7 (AR-V7) mRNA in circulating tumour cells (CTCs) is associated with worse outcome in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). However, studies ...
Circulating tumor cells, tumor-derived extracellular vesicles and plasma cytokeratins in castration-resistant prostate cancer patients.
(Impact Journals, LLC, 2018-04-10)
PURPOSE: The presence of Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (CRPC) patients is associated with poor prognosis. In this study, we evaluated the association of clinical outcome in 129 CRPC ...
Androgen receptor splice variant-7 expression emerges with castration resistance in prostate cancer.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL INVESTIGATION INC, 2019-01-02)
BACKGROUND: Liquid biopsies have demonstrated that the constitutively active androgen receptor splice variant-7 (AR-V7) associates with reduced response and overall survival from endocrine therapies in castration-resistant ...
Scanning Electron Microscopy of Circulating Tumor Cells and Tumor-Derived Extracellular Vesicles.
(MDPI, 2018-10-31)
To explore morphological features of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and tumor-derived extracellular vesicles (tdEVs), we developed a protocol for scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of CTCs and tdEVs. CTCs and tdEVs were ...
Toward a real liquid biopsy in metastatic breast and prostate cancer: Diagnostic LeukApheresis increases CTC yields in a European prospective multicenter study (CTCTrap).
(WILEY, 2018-11-15)
Frequently, the number of circulating tumor cells (CTC) isolated in 7.5 mL of blood is too small to reliably determine tumor heterogeneity and to be representative as a "liquid biopsy". In the EU FP7 program CTCTrap, we ...
The role of genomic profiling in adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with advanced cancer participating in phase I clinical trials.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2018-05-01)
INTRODUCTION: Adolescents and young adults (AYAs) diagnosed with cancer between ages 15-39 years may harbour germline variants associated with cancer predisposition. Such variants represent putative therapeutic targets, ...
