Prostate specific membrane antigen and DNA damage repair in advanced prostate cancer
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2022-03-31)
Identification and implementation of novel therapeutic strategies for advanced prostate cancer (PCa) remains an urgent, unmet clinical need. Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA), a PCa biomarker, is currently being ...
Combining large scale in silico analysis with fragment screening to identify novel, ligandable secondary sites in cancer-associated proteins
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2020-01-31)
Proteins often have multiple binding sites involved in interactions with other molecules. The majority of currently approved drugs bind a protein's primary site, the major functional site in the protein. Targeting the ...
The molecular pathology of infant gliomas
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-04-30)
Infant high grade gliomas appear clinically distinct from their counterparts in older children, indicating that histopathologic grading may not accurately reflect the biology of these tumours. I have collected 241 cases ...
Applications of liquid biopsies in metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2020-02-29)
Despite many recent advances, treating advanced prostate cancer (PC) remains clinically challenging. The need for vaildated circulating biomarkers is well recognised in almost all cancers, including in PC. Whilst circulating ...
Exploiting the CRL4-CRBM E3 ubiquitin ligase complex for the development of iTAG: a versatile targeted protein degradation system to enable functional evaluation and target validation
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2022-02-28)
Modulating target protein expression to probe for its relevance and function in a disease is critical in the drug discovery process of target validation. Current genetic methods and chemico-biology tools are widely employed ...
PET imaging to monitor NET-1 and GD2 expression in neuroblastoma
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-01-31)
Within neuroblastoma (NB), approximately 50% of patients are considered high-risk, presenting widespread distant metastasis and, frequently, MYCN amplification. NB is further characterised by the selective presence of the ...
Frailty-adjusted therapy in Transplant Non-Eligible patients with newly diagnosed Multiple Myeloma (FiTNEss (UK-MRA Myeloma XIV Trial)): a study protocol for a randomised phase III trial.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2022-06-02)
INTRODUCTION: Multiple myeloma is a bone marrow cancer, which predominantly affects older people. The incidence is increasing in an ageing population.Over the last 10 years, patient outcomes have improved. However, this ...
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 ...
Fragment-based discovery of HSP70 inhibitors
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-01-31)
Heat Shock Protein 70s (HSP70s) are key molecular chaperones that are overexpressed in many cancers and are often associated with metastasis and poor prognosis. Dual silencing of two isoforms, HSP72 and HSC70, using siRNA ...
