Targeting Endo180 with an antibody-drug conjugate for cancer treatment
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2024-03-22)Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are formed of an antibody attached to a cytotoxic drug via a linker which is cleaved upon internalisation of the ADC into the cell. This allows very toxic drugs to be directed to specific ... -
Targeting myeloid chemotaxis to reverse prostate cancer therapy resistance.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2023-11-30)Inflammation is a hallmark of cancer1. In patients with cancer, peripheral blood myeloid expansion, indicated by a high neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, associates with shorter survival and treatment resistance across ... -
Targeting PIK3CA-mutant advanced breast cancer in the clinical setting.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2017-07-01) -
Targeting RIPK1 ubiquitylation to promote anti-tumour immunity
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2019-11-30)Cancer heterogeneity is a key problem of current therapies leading to resistance. The way cancer cells die can lead to anti-cancer immunity, which is frequently referred to as "immunogenic" cell death. The aim of the project ... -
Targeting TAO Kinases Using a New Inhibitor Compound Delays Mitosis and Induces Mitotic Cell Death in Centrosome Amplified Breast Cancer Cells.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2017-11-01)Thousand-and-one amino acid kinases (TAOK) 1 and 2 are activated catalytically during mitosis and can contribute to mitotic cell rounding and spindle positioning. Here, we characterize a compound that inhibits TAOK1 and ... -
Targeting the activated microenvironment with endosialin (CD248)-directed CAR-T cells ablates perivascular cells to impair tumor growth and metastasis.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2024-02-27)BACKGROUND: Targeting of solid cancers with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cells is limited by the lack of suitable tumor-specific antigens and the immunosuppressive, desmoplastic tumor microenvironment that impedes ... -
Targeting the PI3-kinase pathway in triple-negative breast cancer.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2019-05-03)Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is characterised by poor outcomes and a historical lack of targeted therapies. Dysregulation of signalling through the phosphoinositide 3 (PI3)-kinase and AKT signalling pathway is one ... -
Targeting the Progesterone Receptor in Breast Cancer: Mind the Short Form!
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2023-03-01)The presurgical window of opportunity trial (WOT) MIPRA provides evidence that neoadjuvant treatment with the progesterone receptor (PR) antagonist mifepristone (RU486) may benefit patients with estrogen receptor-positive ... -
Targeting the receptor tyrosine kinase RET in combination with aromatase inhibitors in ER positive breast cancer xenografts.
(IMPACT JOURNALS LLC, 2016-12-06)The majority of breast cancers are estrogen receptor positive (ER+). Blockade of estrogen biosynthesis by aromatase inhibitors (AIs) is the first-line endocrine therapy for post-menopausal women with ER+ breast cancers. ... -
Targeting the tumour microenvironment with endosialin-directed CAR T-cells
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2022-05-31)Advances in T-cell engineering have facilitated the generation of CAR T-cells that successfully deplete malignant cells of haematological cancers. However, attempts to target solid tumours with CAR T-cells have been hindered ... -
Targeting the Vulnerability of RB Tumor Suppressor Loss in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer.
(CELL PRESS, 2018-01-30)Approximately 30% of triple-negative breast cancers (TNBCs) exhibit functional loss of the RB tumor suppressor, suggesting a target for precision intervention. Here, we use drug screens to identify agents specifically ... -
Targeting Transcriptional Regulation with a CDK9 Inhibitor Suppresses Growth of Endocrine- and Palbociclib-Resistant ER+ Breast Cancers.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2024-01-02)UNLABELLED: The combination of endocrine therapy and CDK4/6 inhibitors such as palbociclib is an effective and well-tolerated treatment for estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer, yet many patients relapse with ... -
Targeting TRIM37-driven centrosome dysfunction in 17q23-amplified breast cancer.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-09-17)Genomic instability is a hallmark of cancer, and has a central role in the initiation and development of breast cancer1,2. The success of poly-ADP ribose polymerase inhibitors in the treatment of breast cancers that are ... -
Targeting tumour re-wiring by triple blockade of mTORC1, epidermal growth factor, and oestrogen receptor signalling pathways in endocrine-resistant breast cancer.
(BIOMED CENTRAL LTD, 2018-06-08)BACKGROUND: Endocrine therapies are the mainstay of treatment for oestrogen receptor (ER)-positive (ER+) breast cancer (BC). However, resistance remains problematic largely due to enhanced cross-talk between ER and growth ... -
Telemedicine During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Impact on Care for Rare Cancers.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL ONCOLOGY, 2020-06-01)PURPOSE: Many patients with cancer, often those with rare cancers such as sarcomas, travel long distances to access expert care. The COVID-19 pandemic necessitated widespread changes in delivery of cancer care, including ... -
TGFβ-mediated MMP13 secretion drives myoepithelial cell dependent breast cancer progression.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2023-03-02)Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is a non-obligate precursor of invasive breast cancer. Virtually all women with DCIS are treated, despite evidence suggesting up to half would remain with stable, non-threatening, disease. ... -
The anticonvulsive Phenhydan® suppresses extrinsic cell death.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2019-09-01)Different forms of regulated cell death-like apoptosis and necroptosis contribute to the pathophysiology of clinical conditions including ischemia-reperfusion injury, myocardial infarction, sepsis, and multiple sclerosis. ... -
The BRCA2 c.68-7T > A variant is not pathogenic: A model for clinical calibration of spliceogenicity.
(2018-05)Although the spliceogenic nature of the BRCA2 c.68-7T > A variant has been demonstrated, its association with cancer risk remains controversial. In this study, we accurately quantified by real-time PCR and digital PCR ... -
