Dosimetric comparison of five different techniques for craniospinal irradiation across 15 European centers: analysis on behalf of the SIOP-E-BTG (radiotherapy working group).
(2018-09)PURPOSE:Conventional techniques (3D-CRT) for craniospinal irradiation (CSI) are still widely used. Modern techniques (IMRT, VMAT, TomoTherapy®, proton pencil beam scanning [PBS]) are applied in a limited number of centers. ... -
Reply: Is the evolution of tumors Darwinian or non-Darwinian?
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2018-01-01) -
Current approaches to incorporation of radium-223 in clinical practice.
(2018-04)BACKGROUND:Treatment options for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) have expanded in recent years and include cytotoxic agents (e.g., docetaxel and cabazitaxel), immunotherapy (e.g., sipuleucel-T), ... -
Total energy expenditure and vigorous-intensity physical activity are associated with reduced odds of reclassification among men on active surveillance.
(2018-06)BACKGROUND:Research examining the association between physical activity (PA) and prostate cancer (PCa) has accumulated; however, few studies have examined this association in the context of active surveillance. The current ... -
Improving outcomes for older women with gynaecological malignancies.
(2016-11)The incidence of most gynaecological malignancies rises significantly with increasing age. With an ageing population, the proportion of women over the age of 65 with cancer is expected to rise substantially over the next ... -
Changes in radiotherapy fractionation-breast cancer.
(BRITISH INST RADIOLOGY, 2018-01-18)Conventional fractionation for half a century has been justified on the basis that 2.0 Gy fractions spare dose-limiting late-responding normal tissues to a greater degree than cancerous tissues. Early indications that ... -
RORγt+ Innate Lymphoid Cells Promote Lymph Node Metastasis of Breast Cancers.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2017-03-01)Cancer cells tend to metastasize first to tumor-draining lymph nodes, but the mechanisms mediating cancer cell invasion into the lymphatic vasculature remain little understood. Here, we show that in the human breast tumor ... -
Inhibited, trapped or adducted: the optimal selective synthetic lethal mix for BRCAness.

Visualization of Tumor-Immune Interaction - Target-Specific Imaging of S100A8/A9 Reveals Pre-Metastatic Niche Establishment.
(IVYSPRING INT PUBL, 2017-06-15)Background Systemic cancer spread is preceded by the establishment of a permissive microenvironment in the target tissue of metastasis - the premetastatic niche. As crucial players in establishment of the pre-metastatic ... -
T-cell Prolymphocytic Leukemia.
(W B SAUNDERS CO-ELSEVIER INC, 2017-04-01)T-cell prolymphocytic leukemia (T-PLL) is a rare and aggressive T-cell malignancy. T-PLL can be distinguished from other lymphoid diseases by the evaluation and integration of clinical features, morphology, immunophenotyping, ... -
Vps34 PI 3-kinase inactivation enhances insulin sensitivity through reprogramming of mitochondrial metabolism.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-11-27)Vps34 PI3K is thought to be the main producer of phosphatidylinositol-3-monophosphate, a lipid that controls intracellular vesicular trafficking. The organismal impact of systemic inhibition of Vps34 kinase activity is not ... -
The Mitotic Checkpoint Complex Requires an Evolutionary Conserved Cassette to Bind and Inhibit Active APC/C.
(CELL PRESS, 2016-12-15)The Spindle Assembly Checkpoint (SAC) ensures genomic stability by preventing sister chromatid separation until all chromosomes are attached to the spindle. It catalyzes the production of the Mitotic Checkpoint Complex ... -
Molecular alterations in triple-negative breast cancer-the road to new treatment strategies.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2017-06-17)Triple-negative breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease and specific therapies have not been available for a long time. Therefore, conventional chemotherapy is still considered the clinical state of the art. Different ... -
Delayed APC/C activation extends the first mitosis of mouse embryos.
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2017-08-29)The correct temporal regulation of mitosis underpins genomic stability because it ensures the alignment of chromosomes on the mitotic spindle that is required for their proper segregation to the two daughter cells. Crucially, ... -
Rheo-optics of concentrated kaolinite suspensions

HRDetect is a predictor of BRCA1 and BRCA2 deficiency based on mutational signatures.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-04-01)Approximately 1-5% of breast cancers are attributed to inherited mutations in BRCA1 or BRCA2 and are selectively sensitive to poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors. In other cancer types, germline and/or somatic ... -

The safety and efficacy of radium-223 dichloride for the treatment of advanced prostate cancer.
(2016-09)Introduction A number of drugs have been shown to extend life expectancy in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Skeletal related events (SREs) secondary to bone metastases cause significant morbidity for men with ...
