Acute skin toxicity associated with a 1-week schedule of whole breast radiotherapy compared with a standard 3-week regimen delivered in the UK FAST-Forward Trial.
Brunt, AM; Wheatley, D; Yarnold, J; Somaiah, N; Kelly, S; et al. (ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2016-07-15)BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: FAST-Forward is a phase 3 clinical trial testing a 1-week course of whole breast radiotherapy against the UK standard 3-week regimen after primary surgery for early breast cancer. Two acute skin ... -
Development and responses of brain metastases during treatment with trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) for HER2 positive advanced breast cancer: A single institution experience.
Okines, A; Irfan, T; Khabra, K; Smith, I; O'Brien, M; et al. (WILEY, 2018-05-01)Ado-trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) is an antibody-drug conjugate that does not cross an intact blood-brain barrier. In the EMILIA trial of T-DM1 vs capecitabine/lapatinib for HER2 positive advanced breast cancer, all patients ... -
Does breast composition influence late adverse effects in breast radiotherapy?
Juneja, P; Bonora, M; Haviland, JS; Harris, E; Evans, P; et al. (CHURCHILL LIVINGSTONE, 2016-04-01)BACKGROUND: Large breast size is associated with increased risk of late adverse effects after surgery and radiotherapy for early breast cancer. It is hypothesised that effects of radiotherapy on adipose tissue are responsible ... -
FFPE breast tumour blocks provide reliable sources of both germline and malignant DNA for investigation of genetic determinants of individual tumour responses to treatment.
Wilkins, A; Chauhan, R; Rust, A; Pearson, A; Daley, F; et al. (SPRINGER, 2018-08-01)BACKGROUND: Bio-banked formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues provide an excellent opportunity for translational genomic research. Historically matched blood has not always been collected as a source of germline ... -
Five-fraction Radiotherapy for Breast Cancer: FAST-Forward to Implementation.
Brunt, AM; Haviland, JS; Kirby, AM; Somaiah, N; Wheatley, DA; et al. (ELSEVIER SCIENCE LONDON, 2023-05-19)INTRODUCTION: The phase 3 FAST-Forward trial reported outcomes for 26 and 27 Gy schedules delivered in 5 fractions over 1 week versus 40 Gy in 15 fractions over 3 weeks in 4000 patients. We discuss concerns raised by the ... -
Hypofractionated breast radiotherapy for 1 week versus 3 weeks (FAST-Forward): 5-year efficacy and late normal tissue effects results from a multicentre, non-inferiority, randomised, phase 3 trial
Haviland, J; Sydenham, M; Hopwood, P; Kirby, A; Somaiah, N; et al. -
Hypofractionated breast radiotherapy for 1 week versus 3 weeks (FAST-Forward): 5-year efficacy and late normal tissue effects results from a multicentre, non-inferiority, randomised, phase 3 trial.
Murray Brunt, A; Haviland, JS; Wheatley, DA; Sydenham, MA; Alhasso, A; et al. (ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2020-05-23)BACKGROUND: We aimed to identify a five-fraction schedule of adjuvant radiotherapy (radiation therapy) delivered in 1 week that is non-inferior in terms of local cancer control and is as safe as an international standard ... -
Ki67 Is an Independent Predictor of Recurrence in the Largest Randomized Trial of 3 Radiation Fractionation Schedules in Localized Prostate Cancer.
Wilkins, AC; Gusterson, B; Szijgyarto, Z; Haviland, J; Griffin, C; et al. (ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2018-06-01)PURPOSE: To assess whether the cellular proliferation marker Ki67 provides prognostic information and predicts response to radiation therapy fractionation in patients with localized prostate tumors participating in a ... -
Multi-candidate immunohistochemical markers to assess radiation response and prognosis in prostate cancer: results from the CHHiP trial of radiotherapy fractionation.
Wilkins, A; Gusterson, B; Tovey, H; Griffin, C; Stuttle, C; et al. (ELSEVIER, 2023-02-01)BACKGROUND: Protein markers of cellular proliferation, hypoxia, apoptosis, cell cycle checkpoints, growth factor signalling and inflammation in localised prostate tumours have previously shown prognostic ability. A ...
