Validation of the OncoMasTR Risk Score in Estrogen Receptor-Positive/HER2-Negative Patients: A TransATAC study.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2020-02-01)
PURPOSE: To test the validity of OncoMasTR Molecular Score (OMm), OMclin1, and OncoMasTR Risk Score (OMclin2) prognostic scores for prediction of distant recurrence (DR) in estrogen receptor (ER)-positive/HER2-negative ...
Intraductal patient-derived xenografts of estrogen receptor α-positive breast cancer recapitulate the histopathological spectrum and metastatic potential of human lesions.
(WILEY, 2019-03-01)
Estrogen receptor α-positive (ER-positive) or 'luminal' breast cancers were notoriously difficult to establish as patient-derived xenografts (PDXs). We and others recently demonstrated that the microenvironment is critical ...
Real-time ex vivo perfusion of human lymph nodes invaded by cancer (REPLICANT): a feasibility study.
(WILEY, 2020-03-01)
Understanding how breast cancer (BC) grows in axillary lymph nodes (ALNs), and refining how therapies might halt that process, is clinically important. However, modelling the complex ALN microenvironment is difficult, and ...
Clinical considerations of the role of palbociclib in the management of advanced breast cancer patients with and without visceral metastases.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2018-03-01)
BACKGROUND: This report assesses the efficacy and safety of palbociclib plus endocrine therapy (ET) in women with hormone receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative advanced breast cancer (ABC) ...
Breast cancer risk in relation to history of preeclampsia and hyperemesis gravidarum: Prospective analysis in the Generations Study.
(WILEY, 2018-08-15)
Preeclampsia and hyperemesis gravidarum are pregnancy complications associated with altered sex hormone levels. Previous studies suggest preeclampsia may be associated with a decreased risk of subsequent breast cancer and ...
E-Cadherin/ROS1 Inhibitor Synthetic Lethality in Breast Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2018-04-01)
The cell adhesion glycoprotein E-cadherin (CDH1) is commonly inactivated in breast tumors. Precision medicine approaches that exploit this characteristic are not available. Using perturbation screens in breast tumor cells ...
Capture Hi-C identifies putative target genes at 33 breast cancer risk loci.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-03-12)
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified approximately 100 breast cancer risk loci. Translating these findings into a greater understanding of the mechanisms that influence disease risk requires identification ...
Development and responses of brain metastases during treatment with trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) for HER2 positive advanced breast cancer: A single institution experience.
(WILEY, 2018-05-01)
Ado-trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) is an antibody-drug conjugate that does not cross an intact blood-brain barrier. In the EMILIA trial of T-DM1 vs capecitabine/lapatinib for HER2 positive advanced breast cancer, all patients ...
Evaluation of CDK12 Protein Expression as a Potential Novel Biomarker for DNA Damage Response-Targeted Therapies in Breast Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2018-01-01)
Disruption of Cyclin-Dependent Kinase 12 (CDK12) is known to lead to defects in DNA repair and sensitivity to platinum salts and PARP1/2 inhibitors. However, CDK12 has also been proposed as an oncogene in breast cancer. ...
Treatment and prognosis of leptomeningeal disease secondary to metastatic breast cancer: A single-centre experience.
(CHURCHILL LIVINGSTONE, 2017-12-01)
PURPOSE: Leptomeningeal disease (LMD) is an uncommon complication of advanced breast cancer. The prognosis is poor, and although radiotherapy (RT), systemic and intra-thecal (IT) chemotherapy are accepted treatment modalities, ...
