Gene Copy Number Estimation from Targeted Next-Generation Sequencing of Prostate Cancer Biopsies: Analytic Validation and Clinical Qualification.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2017-10-15)Purpose: Precise detection of copy number aberrations (CNA) from tumor biopsies is critically important to the treatment of metastatic prostate cancer. The use of targeted panel next-generation sequencing (NGS) is inexpensive, ... -
Gene expression profiling identifies distinct molecular subgroups of leiomyosarcoma with clinical relevance.
(2016-10)Background Soft tissue sarcomas are heterogeneous and a major complication in their management is that the existing classification scheme is not definitive and is still evolving. Leiomyosarcomas, a major histologic category ... -
Genetic manipulation of LKB1 elicits lethal metastatic prostate cancer.
(ROCKEFELLER UNIV PRESS, 2020-06-01)Gene dosage is a key defining factor to understand cancer pathogenesis and progression, which requires the development of experimental models that aid better deconstruction of the disease. Here, we model an aggressive form ... -
Genomic Analysis of Three Metastatic Prostate Cancer Patients with Exceptional Responses to Carboplatin Indicating Different Types of DNA Repair Deficiency.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2019-01-01)Platinum-based regimens have not been proved to increase survival from advanced prostate cancer (PCa). Incontrovertible evidence that a proportion of prostate cancers have homologous recombination DNA (HRD) repair defects, ... -
Genomic and Transcriptomic Analyses of Breast Cancer Primaries and Matched Metastases in AURORA, the Breast International Group (BIG) Molecular Screening Initiative.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2021-11-01)AURORA aims to study the processes of relapse in metastatic breast cancer (MBC) by performing multi-omics profiling on paired primary tumors and early-course metastases. Among 381 patients (primary tumor and metastasis ... -
Genomic and Transcriptomic Determinants of Therapy Resistance and Immune Landscape Evolution during Anti-EGFR Treatment in Colorectal Cancer.
(CELL PRESS, 2019-06-26)Despite biomarker stratification, the anti-EGFR antibody cetuximab is only effective against a subgroup of colorectal cancers (CRCs). This genomic and transcriptomic analysis of the cetuximab resistance landscape in 35 RAS ... -
Genomic Classification and Clinical Outcome in Rhabdomyosarcoma: A Report From an International Consortium.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2021-09-10)PURPOSE: Rhabdomyosarcoma is the most common soft tissue sarcoma of childhood. Despite aggressive therapy, the 5-year survival rate for patients with metastatic or recurrent disease remains poor, and beyond PAX-FOXO1 fusion ... -
Genomic correlates of clinical outcome in advanced prostate cancer.
(NATL ACAD SCIENCES, 2019-06-04)Heterogeneity in the genomic landscape of metastatic prostate cancer has become apparent through several comprehensive profiling efforts, but little is known about the impact of this heterogeneity on clinical outcome. Here, ... -
Genomic Instability and TP53 Genomic Alterations Associate With Poor Antiproliferative Response and Intrinsic Resistance to Aromatase Inhibitor Treatment.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL ONCOLOGY, 2019-01)PURPOSE: Although aromatase inhibitor (AI) treatment is effective in estrogen receptor-positive postmenopausal breast cancer, resistance is common and incompletely explained. Genomic instability, as measured by somatic ... -
Genomic loss of heterozygosity and survival in the REAL3 trial.
(2018-11-30)Background Homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) measured using a genomic signature for loss of heterozygosity (LOH) predicts benefit from rucaparib in ovarian cancer. We hypothesized that some oesophagogastric cancers ... -
Genomic markers of panitumumab resistance including ERBB2/ HER2 in a phase II study of KRAS wild-type (wt) metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC).
(IMPACT JOURNALS LLC, 2016-04-05)A prospective study was conducted to identify biomarkers associated with resistance to panitumumab monotherapy in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Patients with previously treated, codon 12/13 KRAS wt, ... -
Genomic profile of advanced breast cancer in circulating tumour DNA.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2021-04-23)The genomics of advanced breast cancer (ABC) has been described through tumour tissue biopsy sequencing, although these approaches are limited by geographical and temporal heterogeneity. Here we use plasma circulating ... -
Genomics of lethal prostate cancer at diagnosis and castration resistance.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL INVESTIGATION INC, 2020-04-01)The genomics of primary prostate cancer differ from those of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). We studied genomic aberrations in primary prostate cancer biopsies from patients who developed mCRPC, ... -
Germline ATM Mutations Detected by Somatic DNA Sequencing in Lethal Prostate Cancer.
(ELSEVIER, 2023-06-01)BACKGROUND: Germline mutations in the ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) gene occur in 0.5-1% of the overall population and are associated with tumour predisposition. The clinical and pathological features of ATM-mutated ... -
Germline mutations in the PAF1 complex gene CTR9 predispose to Wilms tumour.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2014-08-07)Wilms tumour is a childhood kidney cancer. Here we identify inactivating CTR9 mutations in 3 of 35 Wilms tumour families, through exome and Sanger sequencing. By contrast, no similar mutations are present in 1,000 population ... -
