Targeted PET/MRI Imaging Super Probes: A Critical Review of Opportunities and Challenges.
(DOVE MEDICAL PRESS LTD, 2021-01-01)Recently, the demand for hybrid PET/MRI imaging techniques has increased significantly, which has sparked the investigation into new ways to simultaneously track multiple molecular targets and improve the localization and ... -
Targeted therapy for LIMD1-deficient non-small cell lung cancer subtypes.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2021-11-11)An early event in lung oncogenesis is loss of the tumour suppressor gene LIMD1 (LIM domains containing 1); this encodes a scaffold protein, which suppresses tumorigenesis via a number of different mechanisms. Approximately ... -
Targeting an Initiator Allergen Provides Durable and Expansive Protection against House Dust Mite Allergy.
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2022-09-09)Whereas treatment of allergic diseases such as asthma relies largely on the targeting of dysregulated effector pathways, the conceptually attractive alternative of preventing them by a pharmaceutical, at-source intervention ... -
Targeting Androgen Receptor Aberrations in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2016-09-01)Androgen receptor (AR) splice variants (SV) have been implicated in the development of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer and resistance to AR targeting therapies, including abiraterone and enzalutamide. Agents ... -
Targeting androgen receptor splicing in lethal prostate cancer
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-04-30)Over the past decade, androgen receptor (AR) directed therapies such as abiraterone and enzalutamide have become the standard of care for treating advanced prostate cancer, improving both progression-free and overall ... -
Targeting Bromodomain and Extra-Terminal (BET) Family Proteins in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (CRPC).
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2018-07-01)Purpose: Persistent androgen receptor (AR) signaling drives castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) and confers resistance to AR-targeting therapies. Novel therapeutic strategies to overcome this are urgently required. ... -
Targeting DNA Repair in Cancer: Beyond PARP Inhibitors.
(2017-01)Germline aberrations in critical DNA-repair and DNA damage-response (DDR) genes cause cancer predisposition, whereas various tumors harbor somatic mutations causing defective DDR/DNA repair. The concept of synthetic lethality ... -
Targeting molecular addictions in cancer.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2014-11-25)Cancer cells depend on a finite number of critical signals for their survival. Oncogene addiction, that is, the acquired dependence of a cancer cell on the activity of a single oncogenic gene product, has been the basis ... -
Targeting radioresistance and replication fork stability in prostate cancer.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL INVESTIGATION INC, 2022-05-09)The bromodomain and extraterminal (BET) family of chromatin reader proteins bind to acetylated histones and regulate gene expression. The development of BET inhibitors (BETi) has expanded our knowledge of BET protein ... -
Targeting secondary protein complexes in drug discovery: studying the druggability and chemical biology of the HSP70/BAG1 complex.
(ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY, 2017-05-04)Proteins typically carry out their biological functions as multi-protein complexes, which can significantly affect the affinity of small-molecule inhibitors. HSP70 is an important target in oncology, so to study its chemical ... -
Targeting the Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptors with Immuno-PET: Imaging Biomarkers from Bench to Bedside.

Targeting the p300/CBP Axis in Lethal Prostate Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2021-05-01)Resistance to androgen receptor (AR) blockade in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) is associated with sustained AR signaling, including through alternative splicing of AR (AR-SV). Inhibitors of transcriptional ... -
Targeting the PD-1/PD-L1 axis in non-small cell lung cancer.
The last decade has witnessed rapid advances in the discovery and development of immune checkpoint inhibitors in cancer medicine, particularly drugs targeting programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) and programmed cell death ligand ... -
Targeting therapeutic vulnerabilities associated with EWS fusion proteins in Ewing sarcoma
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-01-31)Ewing sarcoma (ES) is a are and aggressive bone tumour affecting children and young adults and that requires better therapeutic options to improve patient outcomes. ES is characterised by chromosomal rearrangements producing ... -
The addition of vorinostat to lenalidomide maintenance for patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma of all ages: results from 'Myeloma XI', a multicentre, open-label, randomised, phase III trial.
(WILEY, 2022-12-21)Lenalidomide is an effective maintenance agent for patients with myeloma, prolonging first remission and, in transplant eligible patients, improving overall survival (OS) compared to observation. The 'Myeloma XI' trial, ... -
The ALK inhibitor PF-06463922 is effective as a single agent in neuroblastoma driven by expression of ALK and MYCN.
