Investigating the Contribution of Collagen to the Tumor Biomechanical Phenotype with Noninvasive Magnetic Resonance Elastography.
(2019-11)Increased stiffness in the extracellular matrix (ECM) contributes to tumor progression and metastasis. Therefore, stromal modulating therapies and accompanying biomarkers are being developed to target ECM stiffness. Magnetic ... -
Investigating the efficacy of osimertinib and crizotinib in phase 3 clinical trials on anti-cancer treatment-induced cardiotoxicity: are real-world studies the way forward?
(SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD, 2022-02-15)BACKGROUND.: Oncology clinical trials demonstrate the risk of cardiotoxicity but are not sufficient to reveal the true risk. In this article, we compared the incidence of cardiotoxicity of crizotinib and osimertinib from ... -
Investigating the heterogeneity of alkylating agents' efficacy and toxicity between sexes: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized trials comparing cyclophosphamide and ifosfamide (MAIAGE study).
(2017-08)Background A marginal interaction between sex and the type of alkylating agent was observed for event-free survival in the Euro-EWING99-R1 randomized controlled trial (RCT) comparing cyclophosphamide and ifosfamide in Ewing ... -
Is breast seroma after tumour resection associated with patient-reported breast appearance change following radiotherapy? Results from the IMPORT HIGH (CRUK/06/003) trial.
(2019-07)Background Seroma describes a collection of serous fluid within a cavity, occurring following surgery. Seroma is associated with normal tissue effects (NTE) following breast radiotherapy, as reported by clinicians and on ... -
Is mobile phone radiation genotoxic? An analysis of micronucleus frequency in exfoliated buccal cells
(2017)Electromagnetic fields (EMF) are classified as "possibly carcinogenic" by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). Some publications have reported associations between EMF exposure and DNA damage, but many ... -
Is surveillance imaging in pediatric patients treated for localized rhabdomyosarcoma useful? The European experience.
Background After the completion of therapy, patients with localized rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) are subjected to intensive radiological tumor surveillance. However, the clinical benefit of this surveillance is unclear. This ... -
Isolated bone marrow involvement in diffuse large B cell lymphoma: A report of three cases with review of morphological, immunophenotypic and cytogenetic findings
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2004-04)Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBL) comprises a heterogenous entity characterized by the presence of large cells, exhibiting a mature B cell phenotype. The high proliferation rate and aggressive disease remain a therapeutic ... -
Isolated central nervous system involvement in adult T-cell lymphoma/leukaemia
(BLACKWELL PUBLISHING, 2005-08)Central nervous system (CNS) presentation of adult T-cell lymphoma/leukaemia is rare, and almost invariably associated with systemic disease. We report an unusual manifestation of adult T-cell lymphoma/leukaemia, with ... -
Isolated limb perfusion for locally advanced angiosarcoma in extremities: A multi-centre study.
(2017-11)Background Angiosarcomas are rare and aggressive soft-tissue sarcomas. The only potential curative treatment is complete surgical excision. This study reports the outcome of isolated limb perfusion (ILP) with high-dose ... -

Ki67 Is an Independent Predictor of Recurrence in the Largest Randomized Trial of 3 Radiation Fractionation Schedules in Localized Prostate Cancer.
(2018-06)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 ... -
KRAS and BRAF mutations in circulating tumour DNA from locally advanced rectal cancer.
(2018-01-23)There are limited data on circulating, cell-free, tumour (ct)DNA analysis in locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). Digital droplet (dd)PCR was used to investigate KRAS/BRAF mutations in ctDNA from baseline blood samples ... -
Lack of response to nivolumab in a patient with EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer adenocarcinoma sub-type transformed to small cell lung cancer.
(2017-09)Small cell transformation is a rare but well recognised mechanism of acquired resistance to EGFR-TKI therapy in EGFR-mutated NSCLC, but optimal drug therapy thereof is unknown. Nivolumab has demonstrated activity in relapsed ... -
Late normal tissue effects in the arm and shoulder following lymphatic radiotherapy: Results from the UK START (Standardisation of Breast Radiotherapy) trials.
(2018-01)Background and purpose Adjuvant lymphatic radiotherapy (LNRT) is recommended for selected axillary node positive women with early breast cancer. We investigated whether hypofractionated LNRT is safe combined with ...
