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 ... -
The role of cancer-associated fibroblasts in altering signal transduction and drug resistance in KRAS mutated cancers
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2023-01-04)KRAS is commonly mutated in solid tumours but effective treatment is limited due to resistance. Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are a key tumour microenvironment component but how it interacts with KRAS mutant-cancer ... -
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 ... -
Targeting DNA damage response in oesophagogastric cancers
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2023-05-30)A subset of patients with oesphophagogastric (OG) adenocarcinomas are characterised by homologous recombination repair deficiency (HRD), providing the rationale for poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor (PARPi) therapy ... -
Targeting the inflammatory response in advanced prostate cancer
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2024-05-20)Prostate cancer is a leading cause of male cancer mortality. Despite inflammation being implicated in prostate cancer initiation and progression, patient outcomes have been minimally impacted by immunotherapies that have ... -
Utilising novel therapies in the treatment of gastrointestinal cancers
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2023-05-04)Background: Gastrointestinal (GI) malignancies are common and frequently lethal diseases. For most, treatment options revolve around chemotherapy where efficacy beyond second line is negligible, and toxicity is high. Novel ...
