Ki67 Proliferation Index as a Tool for Chemotherapy Decisions During and After Neoadjuvant Aromatase Inhibitor Treatment of Breast Cancer: Results From the American College of Surgeons Oncology Group Z1031 Trial (Alliance).
(2017-04)Purpose To determine the pathologic complete response (pCR) rate in estrogen receptor (ER) -positive primary breast cancer triaged to chemotherapy when the protein encoded by the MKI67 gene (Ki67) level was > 10% after 2 ... -
Large-scale Analysis Demonstrates Familial Testicular Cancer to have Polygenic Aetiology.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2018-09-01)UNLABELLED: Testicular germ cell tumour (TGCT) is the most common cancer in young men. Multiplex TGCT families have been well reported and analyses of population cancer registries have demonstrated a four- to eightfold ... -
Large-scale genotyping identifies 41 new loci associated with breast cancer risk.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2013-04-01)Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women. Common variants at 27 loci have been identified as associated with susceptibility to breast cancer, and these account for ∼9% of the familial risk of the disease. We ... -
Large-Scale Profiling of Kinase Dependencies in Cancer Cell Lines.
(CELL PRESS, 2016-03-15)One approach to identifying cancer-specific vulnerabilities and therapeutic targets is to profile genetic dependencies in cancer cell lines. Here, we describe data from a series of siRNA screens that identify the kinase ... -
Late recurrence in ER+ breast cancer - refining risk prediction beyond 5 years
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-11-30)ER positive (ER+) breast cancer has the potential to recur many years following diagnosis. Predicting who is most at risk of recurrence and when this may occur is complex. Risk prediction incorporates clinical, pathological ... -
Late-Stage Metastatic Melanoma Emerges through a Diversity of Evolutionary Pathways.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2023-06-02)UNLABELLED: Understanding the evolutionary pathways to metastasis and resistance to immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) in melanoma is critical for improving outcomes. Here, we present the most comprehensive intrapatient ... -
Length of FMR1 repeat alleles within the normal range does not substantially affect the risk of early menopause.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2016-10-01)STUDY QUESTION: Is the length of FMR1 repeat alleles within the normal range associated with the risk of early menopause? SUMMARY ANSWER: The length of repeat alleles within the normal range does not substantially affect ... -
Lkb1 Deficiency Alters Goblet and Paneth Cell Differentiation in the Small Intestine
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2009-01)The Lkb1 tumour suppressor is a multitasking kinase participating in a range of physiological processes. We have determined the impact of Lkb1 deficiency on intestinal homeostasis, particularly focussing on secretory cell ... -
LKB1 is required for hepatic bile acid transport and canalicular membrane integrity in mice.
(2011-02)LKB1 is a 'master' protein kinase implicated in the regulation of metabolism, cell proliferation, cell polarity and tumorigenesis. However, the long-term role of LKB1 in hepatic function is unknown. In the present study, ... -
Long-term Multimodal Recording Reveals Epigenetic Adaptation Routes in Dormant Breast Cancer Cells.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2024-05-01)UNLABELLED: Patients with estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer receive adjuvant endocrine therapies (ET) that delay relapse by targeting clinically undetectable micrometastatic deposits. Yet, up to 50% of patients ... -
Long-term outcome and prognostic value of Ki67 after perioperative endocrine therapy in postmenopausal women with hormone-sensitive early breast cancer (POETIC): an open-label, multicentre, parallel-group, randomised, phase 3 trial.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2020-11-01)BACKGROUND: Preoperative and perioperative aromatase inhibitor (POAI) therapy has the potential to improve outcomes in women with operable oestrogen receptor-positive primary breast cancer. It has also been suggested that ... -
Long-term outcomes for neoadjuvant versus adjuvant chemotherapy in early breast cancer: meta-analysis of individual patient data from ten randomised trials.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2018-01-01)BACKGROUND: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) for early breast cancer can make breast-conserving surgery more feasible and might be more likely to eradicate micrometastatic disease than might the same chemotherapy given after ... -
Long-Term Pooled Safety Analysis of Palbociclib in Combination with Endocrine Therapy for Hormone Receptor-Positive/Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2-Negative Advanced Breast Cancer: Updated Analysis with up to 5 Years of Follow-Up.
(WILEY, 2021-03-10)BACKGROUND: Previous studies demonstrated the tolerability of palbociclib plus endocrine therapy (ET). This analysis evaluated safety based on more recent cutoff dates and a longer palbociclib treatment exposure. PATIENTS ... -
Long-term Pooled Safety Analysis of Palbociclib in Combination With Endocrine Therapy for HR+/HER2- Advanced Breast Cancer.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS INC, 2019-04-01)BACKGROUND: Palbociclib administered with endocrine therapy was tolerable when the overall incidence of toxicities was assessed separately for three PALOMA studies. This study analyzed pooled, longer-term PALOMA safety ... -
Longitudinal analysis of a secondary BRCA2 mutation using digital droplet PCR.
(WILEY, 2019-11-20)Development of resistance to platinum and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors via secondary BRCA gene mutations that restore functional homologous recombination has been observed in a number of cancer types. Here we ... -
Longitudinal Liquid Biopsy and Mathematical Modeling of Clonal Evolution Forecast Time to Treatment Failure in the PROSPECT-C Phase II Colorectal Cancer Clinical Trial.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2018-08-30)Sequential profiling of plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) holds immense promise for early detection of patient progression. However, how to exploit the predictive power of cfDNA as a liquid biopsy in the clinic remains unclear. ... -
Longitudinal profiling identifies co-occurring BRCA1/2 reversions, TP53BP1, RIF1 and PAXIP1 mutations in PARP inhibitor-resistant advanced breast cancer.
