Carbon dating cancer: defining the chronology of metastatic progression in colorectal cancer.
Lote, H; Spiteri, I; Ermini, L; Vatsiou, A; Roy, A; et al. (2017-06)Background Patients often ask oncologists how long a cancer has been present before causing symptoms or spreading to other organs. The evolutionary trajectory of cancers can be defined using phylogenetic approaches but ... -
Effect of Pathologic Tumor Response and Nodal Status on Survival in the Medical Research Council Adjuvant Gastric Infusional Chemotherapy Trial.
Smyth, EC; Fassan, M; Cunningham, D; Allum, WH; Okines, AFC; et al. (AMER SOC CLINICAL ONCOLOGY, 2016-08-10)PURPOSE: The Medical Research Council Adjuvant Gastric Infusional Chemotherapy (MAGIC) trial established perioperative epirubicin, cisplatin, and fluorouracil chemotherapy as a standard of care for patients with resectable ... -
Functional imaging and circulating biomarkers of response to regorafenib in treatment-refractory metastatic colorectal cancer patients in a prospective phase II study.
Khan, K; Rata, M; Cunningham, D; Koh, D-M; Tunariu, N; et al. (BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-08-01)OBJECTIVE: Regorafenib demonstrated efficacy in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Lack of predictive biomarkers, potential toxicities and cost-effectiveness concerns highlight the unmet need for better ... -
KRAS and BRAF mutations in circulating tumour DNA from locally advanced rectal cancer.
Sclafani, F; Chau, I; Cunningham, D; Hahne, JC; Vlachogiannis, G; et al. (NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2018-01-23)There are limited data on circulating, cell-free, tumour (ct)DNA analysis in locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). Digital droplet (dd)PCR was used to investigate KRAS/BRAF mutations in ctDNA from baseline blood samples ... -
Longitudinal Liquid Biopsy and Mathematical Modeling of Clonal Evolution Forecast Time to Treatment Failure in the PROSPECT-C Phase II Colorectal Cancer Clinical Trial.
Khan, KH; Cunningham, D; Werner, B; Vlachogiannis, G; Spiteri, I; et al. (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. ... -
MicroRNA-135b promotes cancer progression by acting as a downstream effector of oncogenic pathways in colon cancer.
Valeri, N; Braconi, C; Gasparini, P; Murgia, C; Lampis, A; et al. (CELL PRESS, 2014-04-14)MicroRNA deregulation is frequent in human colorectal cancers (CRCs), but little is known as to whether it represents a bystander event or actually drives tumor progression in vivo. We show that miR-135b overexpression is ... -
miR-31-3p Expression and Benefit from Anti-EGFR Inhibitors in Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Patients Enrolled in the Prospective Phase II PROSPECT-C Trial.
Anandappa, G; Lampis, A; Cunningham, D; Khan, KH; Kouvelakis, K; et al. (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, ... -
Patient-derived organoids model treatment response of metastatic gastrointestinal cancers.
Vlachogiannis, G; Hedayat, S; Vatsiou, A; Jamin, Y; Fernández-Mateos, J; et al. (AMER ASSOC ADVANCEMENT SCIENCE, 2018-02-23)Patient-derived organoids (PDOs) have recently emerged as robust preclinical models; however, their potential to predict clinical outcomes in patients has remained unclear. We report on a living biobank of PDOs from ... -
Wnt signalling modulates transcribed-ultraconserved regions in hepatobiliary cancers.
Carotenuto, P; Fassan, M; Pandolfo, R; Lampis, A; Vicentini, C; et al. (BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2016-09-14)OBJECTIVE: Transcribed-ultraconserved regions (T-UCR) are long non-coding RNAs which are conserved across species and are involved in carcinogenesis. We studied T-UCRs downstream of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway in liver cancer. ...
