A Phase II Study of Talazoparib after Platinum or Cytotoxic Nonplatinum Regimens in Patients with Advanced Breast Cancer and Germline BRCA1/2 Mutations (ABRAZO).
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2019-05-01)
PURPOSE: To assess talazoparib activity in germline BRCA1/2 mutation carriers with advanced breast cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS: ABRAZO (NCT02034916) was a two-cohort, two-stage, phase II study of talazoparib (1 mg/day) ...
Cyclin E1 Expression and Palbociclib Efficacy in Previously Treated Hormone Receptor-Positive Metastatic Breast Cancer.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL ONCOLOGY, 2019-02-26)
PURPOSE: A large-panel gene expression analysis was conducted to identify biomarkers associated with the effectiveness of adding palbociclib to fulvestrant. METHODS: The PALOMA-3 ( ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01942135) ...
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 ...
PARP inhibition enhances tumor cell-intrinsic immunity in ERCC1-deficient non-small cell lung cancer.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL INVESTIGATION INC, 2019-03-01)
The cyclic GMP-AMP synthase/stimulator of IFN genes (cGAS/STING) pathway detects cytosolic DNA to activate innate immune responses. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) selectively target cancer cells with DNA ...
Metabolism of the dual FLT-3/Aurora kinase inhibitor CCT241736 in preclinical and human in vitro models: Implication for the choice of toxicology species.
(ELSEVIER, 2019-11-01)
CCT241736 is a dual fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3)/Aurora kinase inhibitor in development for the treatment of acute myeloid leukaemia. The successful development of any new drug relies on adequate safety testing including ...
Combined quantitative measures of ER, PR, HER2, and KI67 provide more prognostic information than categorical combinations in luminal breast cancer.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2019-09-01)
Although most women with luminal breast cancer do well on endocrine therapy alone, some will develop fatal recurrence thereby necessitating the need to prospectively determine those for whom additional cytotoxic therapy ...
Dissecting PARP inhibitor resistance with functional genomics.
(CURRENT BIOLOGY LTD, 2019-02-01)
The poly-(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor (PARPi) olaparib was the first licenced cancer drug that targeted an inherited form of cancer, namely ovarian cancers caused by germline BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene mutations. ...
Brain and Salivary Gland Tumors and Mobile Phone Use: Evaluating the Evidence from Various Epidemiological Study Designs.
(ANNUAL REVIEWS, 2019-04-01)
Mobile phones (MPs) are the most relevant source of radiofrequency electromagnetic field (RF-EMF) exposure to the brain and the salivary gland. Whether this exposure implies a cancer risk has been addressed in several ...
Breast cancer risk prediction in women aged 35-50 years: impact of including sex hormone concentrations in the Gail model.
(BMC, 2019-03-19)
BACKGROUND: Models that accurately predict risk of breast cancer are needed to help younger women make decisions about when to begin screening. Premenopausal concentrations of circulating anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), a ...
miR-31-3p Expression and Benefit from Anti-EGFR Inhibitors in Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Patients Enrolled in the Prospective Phase II PROSPECT-C Trial.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2019-07-01)
PURPOSE: Anti-EGFR mAbs are effective in the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients. RAS status and tumor location (sidedness) are predictive markers of patients' response to anti-EGFR mAbs. Recently, ...
