A first-in-human phase 1 and pharmacological study of TAS-119, a novel selective Aurora A kinase inhibitor in patients with advanced solid tumours.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2021-01-19)
BACKGROUND: This is a first-in-human study with TAS-119, an Aurora A kinase (AurA) inhibitor. METHODS: Patients with advanced, refractory, solid tumours were enrolled into 5 dose escalation cohorts (70-300 mg BID, 4 days ...
Radiological evaluation of malignant pleural mesothelioma - defining distant metastatic disease.
(BMC, 2020-12-09)
BACKGROUND: Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is traditionally characterized by local destructive spread of the pleura and surrounding tissues. Patient outcomes in MPM with distant metastatic dissemination are lacking. ...
Post Hoc Health-Related Quality of Life Analysis According to Response Among Patients with Prostate Cancer in the PROSELICA and FIRSTANA Studies.
(WILEY, 2021-05-21)
BACKGROUND: The phase III PROSELICA (NCT01308580) and FIRSTANA (NCT01308567) trials investigated taxane chemotherapy among men with postdocetaxel metastatic, castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) or chemotherapy-naïve ...
Biomarkers Associating with PARP Inhibitor Benefit in Prostate Cancer in the TOPARP-B Trial.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2021-11-01)
PARP inhibitors are approved for treating advanced prostate cancers (APC) with various defective DNA repair genes; however, further studies to clinically qualify predictive biomarkers are warranted. Herein we analyzed ...
HER3 expression and MEK activation in non-small-cell lung carcinoma.
(FUTURE MEDICINE LTD, 2021-04-09)
AIM: We explore HER3 expression in lung adenocarcinoma (adeno-NSCLC) and identify potential mechanisms of HER3 expression. MATERIALS & METHODS: Tumor samples from 45 patients with adeno-NSCLC were analyzed. HER3 and HER2 ...
Elucidating Prostate Cancer Behaviour During Treatment via Low-pass Whole-genome Sequencing of Circulating Tumour DNA.
(ELSEVIER, 2021-08-01)
BACKGROUND: Better blood tests to elucidate the behaviour of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) are urgently needed to drive therapeutic decisions. Plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) comprises normal and ...
Value of Early Circulating Tumor Cells Dynamics to Estimate Docetaxel Benefit in Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC) Patients.
(MDPI, 2021-05-12)
Circulating tumor cell (CTC) enumeration and changes following treatment have been demonstrated to be superior to PSA response in determining mCRPC outcome in patients receiving AR signaling inhibitors but not taxanes. We ...
Two first-in-human studies of xentuzumab, a humanised insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-neutralising antibody, in patients with advanced solid tumours.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2020-04-28)
BACKGROUND: Xentuzumab, an insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1/IGF-2-neutralising antibody, binds IGF-1 and IGF-2, inhibiting their growth-promoting signalling. Two first-in-human trials assessed the maximum-tolerated/relevant ...
A phase I dose-escalation study of enzalutamide in combination with the AKT inhibitor AZD5363 (capivasertib) in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.
(ELSEVIER, 2020-02-21)
BACKGROUND: Activation of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway through loss of phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) occurs in approximately 50% of patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Recent evidence ...
Molecular and immunological features of a prolonged exceptional responder with malignant pleural mesothelioma treated initially and rechallenged with pembrolizumab.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-03-01)
BACKGROUND: This case represents an exceptional response to pembrolizumab in a patient with epithelioid mesothelioma with a further response on rechallenge. CASE PRESENTATION: A 77-year-old woman with advanced epithelioid ...
