Circulating tumour DNA sequencing to determine therapeutic response and identify tumour heterogeneity in patients with paediatric solid tumours.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2021-12-18)OBJECTIVE: Clinical diagnostic sequencing of circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) is well advanced for adult patients, but application to paediatric cancer patients lags behind. METHODS: To address this, we have developed a ... -
Clinical and co-clinical genomics of paediatric solid tumours with a special focus in DIPG
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2020-07-31)Cure rates for paediatric solid cancers have not improved in the last decade. Delivering precision medicine to stratify patients based on their molecular profiling is a key goal to support existing and upcoming adaptive ... -
Clinical characteristics and outcomes of IgD myeloma: experience across UK national trials.
(ELSEVIER, 2022-09-13)Immunoglobulin D (IgD) myeloma is a subtype often considered to have adverse features and inferior survival, but there is a paucity of data from large clinical studies. We compare the clinical characteristics and outcomes ... -
Clinical factors of response in patients with advanced ovarian cancer participating in early phase clinical trials.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2017-05-01)Drug resistance to conventional anticancer therapies is almost inevitable in patients with advanced ovarian cancer (AOC), limiting their available treatment options. Novel phase I trial therapies within a dedicated drug ... -
Clinical Outcome of Patients with Advanced Biliary Tract Cancer in a Dedicated Phase I Unit.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE LONDON, 2018-03-01)AIMS: Advanced biliary tract carcinomas (ABC) are malignancies with limited effective therapies for advanced disease. There is little published evidence of outcomes of ABC patients participating in phase I clinical trials. ... -
Clinical Outcome of Prostate Cancer Patients with Germline DNA Repair Mutations: Retrospective Analysis from an International Study.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2018-05-01)BACKGROUND: Germline DNA damage repair gene mutation (gDDRm) is found in >10% of metastatic prostate cancer (mPC). Their prognostic and predictive impact relating to standard therapies is unclear. OBJECTIVE: To determine ... -
Clinical outcomes and prognostic factors of patients with advanced mesothelioma treated in a phase I clinical trials unit.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2017-04-01)BACKGROUND: We have previously reported a prognostic score for patients in phase I trials in the Drug Development Unit, treated at the Royal Marsden Hospital (RPS). The RPS is an objective tool used in patient selection ... -
Clinical Utility of Circulating Tumour Cell Androgen Receptor Splice Variant-7 Status in Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer.
(ELSEVIER, 2019-11-01)BACKGROUND: Detection of androgen receptor splice variant-7 (AR-V7) mRNA in circulating tumour cells (CTCs) is associated with worse outcome in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). However, studies ... -
Clinical, Radiologic, Pathologic, and Molecular Characteristics of Long-Term Survivors of Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG): A Collaborative Report From the International and European Society for Pediatric Oncology DIPG Registries.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2018-05-10)Purpose Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is a brainstem malignancy with a median survival of < 1 year. The International and European Society for Pediatric Oncology DIPG Registries collaborated to compare clinical, ... -
Clonal evolution in myeloma: the impact of maintenance lenalidomide and depth of response on the genetics and sub-clonal structure of relapsed disease in uniformly treated newly diagnosed patients.
(FERRATA STORTI FOUNDATION, 2019-06-30)The emergence of treatment resistant sub-clones is a key feature of relapse in multiple myeloma. Therapeutic attempts to extend remission and prevent relapse include maximizing response and the use of maintenance therapy. ... -
Cloning, purification and structure determination of the HIV integrase-binding domain of lens epithelium-derived growth factor.
(INT UNION CRYSTALLOGRAPHY, 2018-03-01)Lens epithelium-derived growth factor (LEDGF)/p75 is the dominant binding partner of HIV-1 integrase in human cells. The crystal structure of the HIV integrase-binding domain (IBD) of LEDGF has been determined in the absence ... -
CNS cancer immunity cycle and strategies to target this for glioblastoma.
(Impact Journals, LLC, 2018-04-27)Immunotherapeutics have revolutionized the management of solid malignancies over the last few years. Nevertheless, despite relative successes of checkpoint inhibitors in numerous solid tumour types, success in tumours of ... -
Combination Therapies Targeting ALK-aberrant Neuroblastoma in Preclinical Models.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2023-04-03)PURPOSE: ALK-activating mutations are identified in approximately 10% of newly diagnosed neuroblastomas and ALK amplifications in a further 1%-2% of cases. Lorlatinib, a third-generation anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) ... -
Combine and conquer: challenges for targeted therapy combinations in early phase trials.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-01-01)Our increasing understanding of cancer biology has led to the development of molecularly targeted anticancer drugs. The full potential of these agents has not, however, been realised, owing to the presence of de novo ... -
Combined MYC and P53 defects emerge at medulloblastoma relapse and define rapidly progressive, therapeutically targetable disease.
(CELL PRESS, 2015-01-12)We undertook a comprehensive clinical and biological investigation of serial medulloblastoma biopsies obtained at diagnosis and relapse. Combined MYC family amplifications and P53 pathway defects commonly emerged at relapse, ... -
Combined Pan-RAF and MEK Inhibition Overcomes Multiple Resistance Mechanisms to Selective RAF Inhibitors.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2015-12-01)RAF and MEK inhibitors are effective in BRAF-mutant melanoma but not in BRAF-mutant colorectal cancer. To gain additional insights into this difference, we performed a genome-scale pooled shRNA enhancer screen in a ... -
Combined targeting of MEK and the glucocorticoid receptor for the treatment of RAS-mutant multiple myeloma.
(BMC, 2020-03-30)BACKGROUND: Multiple myeloma (MM) remains incurable despite recent therapeutic advances. RAS mutations are frequently associated with relapsed/refractory disease. Efforts to target the mitogen-activated protein kinase ... -
Combining DNA damaging therapeutics with immunotherapy: more haste, less speed.
(2018-02)The idea that chemotherapy can be used in combination with immunotherapy may seem somewhat counterproductive, as it can theoretically eliminate the immune cells needed for antitumour immunity. However, much preclinical ... -
