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 ... -
High-Level Clonal FGFR Amplification and Response to FGFR Inhibition in a Translational Clinical Trial.
Pearson, A; Smyth, E; Babina, IS; Herrera-Abreu, MT; Tarazona, N; et al. (AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2016-08-01)UNLABELLED: FGFR1 and FGFR2 are amplified in many tumor types, yet what determines response to FGFR inhibition in amplified cancers is unknown. In a translational clinical trial, we show that gastric cancers with high-level ... -
Homologous recombination DNA repair deficiency and PARP inhibition activity in primary triple negative breast cancer.
Chopra, N; Tovey, H; Pearson, A; Cutts, R; Toms, C; et al. (NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-05-29)Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) encompasses molecularly different subgroups, with a subgroup harboring evidence of defective homologous recombination (HR) DNA repair. Here, within a phase 2 window clinical trial, RIO ... -
Molecular characterisation of aromatase inhibitor-resistant advanced breast cancer: the phenotypic effect of ESR1 mutations.
Lopez-Knowles, E; Pearson, A; Schuster, G; Gellert, P; Ribas, R; et al. (SPRINGERNATURE, 2019-01-22)BACKGROUND: Several thousand breast cancer patients develop resistance to aromatase inhibitors (AIs) each year in the UK. Rational treatment requires an improved molecular characterisation of resistant disease. MATERIALS ... -
Triplet Therapy with Palbociclib, Taselisib, and Fulvestrant in PIK3CA-Mutant Breast Cancer and Doublet Palbociclib and Taselisib in Pathway-Mutant Solid Cancers.
Pascual, J; Lim, JSJ; Macpherson, IR; Armstrong, AC; Ring, A; et al. (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 ...
