A Phase I Trial of CT900, a Novel α-Folate Receptor-Mediated Thymidylate Synthase Inhibitor, in Patients with Solid Tumors with Expansion Cohorts in Patients with High-Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2022-11-01)PURPOSE: CT900 is a novel small molecule thymidylate synthase inhibitor that binds to α-folate receptor (α-FR) and thus is selectively taken up by α-FR-overexpressing tumors. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A 3+3 dose escalation ... -
Mutations in ALK signaling pathways conferring resistance to ALK inhibitor treatment lead to collateral vulnerabilities in neuroblastoma cells.
(BMC, 2022-06-10)BACKGROUND: Development of resistance to targeted therapies has tempered initial optimism that precision oncology would improve poor outcomes for cancer patients. Resistance mechanisms, however, can also confer new ... -
Development of a Structured Query Language and Natural Language Processing Algorithm to Identify Lung Nodules in a Cancer Centre.
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2021-11-04)Importance: The stratification of indeterminate lung nodules is a growing problem, but the burden of lung nodules on healthcare services is not well-described. Manual service evaluation and research cohort curation can be ... -
Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T Cell Therapy for Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma (MPM).
(MDPI, 2017-09-01)Cancer immunotherapy has now become a recognized approach to treating cancers. In addition to checkpoint blockade, adoptive T cell transfer (ACT) using chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) has shown impressive clinical outcomes ... -
Assessment of Androgen Receptor Splice Variant-7 as a Biomarker of Clinical Response in Castration-Sensitive Prostate Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2022-08-15)PURPOSE: Therapies targeting the androgen receptor (AR) have improved the outcome for patients with castration-sensitive prostate cancer (CSPC). Expression of the constitutively active AR splice variant-7 (AR-V7) has shown ... -
Perspectives on the Risk-Stratified Treatment of Multiple Myeloma.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2022-07-06)The multiple myeloma treatment landscape has changed dramatically. This change, paralleled by an increase in scientific knowledge, has resulted in significant improvement in survival. However, heterogeneity remains in ... -
Optimizing Shape Complementarity Enables the Discovery of Potent Tricyclic BCL6 Inhibitors.
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2022-06-23)To identify new chemical series with enhanced binding affinity to the BTB domain of B-cell lymphoma 6 protein, we targeted a subpocket adjacent to Val18. With no opportunities for strong polar interactions, we focused on ... -
Improved Binding Affinity and Pharmacokinetics Enable Sustained Degradation of BCL6 In Vivo.
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2022-06-23)The transcriptional repressor BCL6 is an oncogenic driver found to be deregulated in lymphoid malignancies. Herein, we report the optimization of our previously reported benzimidazolone molecular glue-type degrader CCT369260 ... -
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 ... -
PPM1D mutations are oncogenic drivers of de novo diffuse midline glioma formation.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-02-01)The role of PPM1D mutations in de novo gliomagenesis has not been systematically explored. Here we analyze whole genome sequences of 170 pediatric high-grade gliomas and find that truncating mutations in PPM1D that increase ... -
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 ... -
Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen Expression and Response to DNA Damaging Agents in Prostate Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2022-07-15)PURPOSE: Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) targeting therapies such as Lutetium-177 (177Lu)-PSMA-617 are affecting outcomes from metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). However, a significant subset ... -
Minimal Residual Disease After Autologous Stem-Cell Transplant for Patients With Myeloma: Prognostic Significance and the Impact of Lenalidomide Maintenance and Molecular Risk.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2022-09-01)PURPOSE: Minimal residual disease (MRD) can predict outcomes in patients with multiple myeloma, but limited data are available on the prognostic impact of MRD when assessed at serial time points in the context of maintenance ... -
Immune Biomarkers in Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer.
(ELSEVIER, 2022-04-28)BACKGROUND: Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) is a heterogeneous disease in which molecular stratification is needed to improve clinical outcomes. The identification of predictive biomarkers can have ... -
Precision-Cut Tumor Slices (PCTS) as an Ex Vivo Model in Immunotherapy Research.
(MDPI, 2022-04-06)Precision-cut tumor slices (PCTS) have recently emerged as important ex vivo human tumor models, offering the opportunity to study individual patient responses to targeted immunotherapies, including CAR-T cell therapies. ... -
Indisulam targets RNA splicing and metabolism to serve as a therapeutic strategy for high-risk neuroblastoma.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2022-03-16)Neuroblastoma is the most common paediatric solid tumour and prognosis remains poor for high-risk cases despite the use of multimodal treatment. Analysis of public drug sensitivity data showed neuroblastoma lines to be ... -
A non-coding RNA balancing act: miR-346-induced DNA damage is limited by the long non-coding RNA NORAD in prostate cancer.
(BMC, 2022-03-22)BACKGROUND: miR-346 was identified as an activator of Androgen Receptor (AR) signalling that associates with DNA damage response (DDR)-linked transcripts in prostate cancer (PC). We sought to delineate the impact of miR-346 ... -
