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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
canSAR: update to the cancer translational research and drug discovery knowledgebase.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2021-01-08)
canSAR (http://cansar.icr.ac.uk) is the largest, public, freely available, integrative translational research and drug discovery knowledgebase for oncology. canSAR integrates vast multidisciplinary data from across genomic, ...
Investigating acute cellular responses to elevated APOBEC3B expression
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-09-30)
The cytosine deaminase APOBEC3B (A3B) functions as part of innate immunity by mutating viral DNA and preventing replication. Large-scale genome sequencing studies and examination of expression levels have identified mutations ...
Characterizing the metabolic fate of (2S, 4R)-4-[18F]fluoroglutamine and its applications in cancer imaging and treatment response monitoring
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-01-31)
Glutaminolysis is a crucial pathway to provide the nitrogen source in addition to the carbon source from the glycolysis pathway for proliferating cells. (2S, 4R)-4-[18F]fluoroglutamine (4-[18F]fluoroglutamine) is potentially ...
Triplet Therapy with Palbociclib, Taselisib, and Fulvestrant in PIK3CA-Mutant Breast Cancer and Doublet Palbociclib and Taselisib in Pathway-Mutant Solid Cancers.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2021-01-01)
Cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) and PI3K inhibitors synergize in PIK3CA-mutant ER-positive HER2-negative breast cancer models. We conducted a phase Ib trial investigating the safety and efficacy of doublet CDK4/6 ...
Near-InfraRed PhotoImmunoTherapy (NIR-PIT) for the local control of solid cancers: Challenges and potentials for human applications.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2021-05-01)
Near-InfraRed PhotoImmunoTherapy (NIR-PIT) is a novel cancer-targeted treatment effected by a chemical conjugation between a photosensitiser (e.g. the NIR phthalocyanine dye IRDye700DX) and a cancer-targeting moiety (e.g. ...
Mesothelin-targeted CAR-T cell therapy for solid tumors.
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2021-04-03)
Introduction: Mesothelin (MSLN) is a tumor differentiation antigen normally restricted to the body's mesothelial surfaces, but significantly overexpressed in a broad range of solid tumors. For this reason, MSLN has emerged ...
