Phase 1 study of the pan-RAF inhibitor tovorafenib in patients with advanced solid tumors followed by dose expansion in patients with metastatic melanoma.
(SPRINGER, 2023-07-01)
PURPOSE: Genomic alterations of BRAF and NRAS are oncogenic drivers in malignant melanoma and other solid tumors. Tovorafenib is an investigational, oral, selective, CNS-penetrant, small molecule, type II pan‑RAF inhibitor. ...
Clinical trial designs for evaluating and exploiting cancer evolution.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2023-07-01)
The evolution of drug-resistant cell subpopulations causes cancer treatment failure. Current preclinical evidence shows that it is possible to model herding of clonal evolution and collateral sensitivity where an initial ...
Pathological regression of primary tumour and metastatic lymph nodes following chemotherapy in resectable OG cancer: pooled analysis of two trials.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2023-06-15)
BACKGROUND: No definitive largescale data exist evaluating the role of pathologically defined regression changes within the primary tumour and lymph nodes (LN) of resected oesophagogastric (OG) adenocarcinoma following ...
A phase Ib trial of combined PKC and MEK inhibition with sotrastaurin and binimetinib in patients with metastatic uveal melanoma.
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2023-06-09)
BACKGROUND: Uveal melanoma is a disease characterized by constitutive activation of the G alpha pathway and downstream signaling of protein kinase C (PKC) and the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. While ...
A Phase I/II Trial of Oral SRA737 (a Chk1 Inhibitor) Given in Combination with Low-Dose Gemcitabine in Patients with Advanced Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2023-01-17)
PURPOSE: This was a Phase I/II trial of the novel checkpoint kinase 1 (Chk1) inhibitor SRA737 given in combination with gemcitabine. Its objectives were to establish the safety profile, recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D), ...
Biological Role and Clinical Implications of MYOD1L122R Mutation in Rhabdomyosarcoma.
(MDPI, 2023-03-07)
Major progress in recent decades has furthered our clinical and biological understanding of rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) with improved stratification for treatment based on risk factors. Clinical risk factors alone were used to ...
A Subset of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients Treated with Pemetrexed Show 18F-Fluorothymidine "Flare" on Positron Emission Tomography.
(MDPI, 2023-07-22)
UNLABELLED: Thymidylate synthase (TS) remains a major target for cancer therapy. TS inhibition elicits increases in DNA salvage pathway activity, detected as a transient compensatory "flare" in 3'-deoxy-3'-[18F]fluorothymidine ...
Robotic versus freehand CT-guided radiofrequency ablation of pulmonary metastases: a comparative cohort study.
(SPRINGER HEIDELBERG, 2023-04-18)
PURPOSE: Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a curative treatment option for small lung metastases, which conventionally involves multiple freehand manipulations until the treating electrode is satisfactorily positioned. ...
The influence of procedural volume on short-term outcomes for robotic pancreatoduodenectomy-a cohort study and a learning curve analysis.
(SPRINGER, 2023-03-08)
BACKGROUND: An increasing number of robotic pancreatoduodenectomies (RPD) are reported, however, questions remain on the number of procedures needed for gaining technical proficiency in RPD. Therefore, we aimed to assess ...
RELAY, Ramucirumab Plus Erlotinib (RAM+ERL) in Untreated Metastatic EGFR-Mutant NSCLC (EGFR+ NSCLC): Association Between TP53 Status and Clinical Outcome.
(Elsevier BV, 2023-03-21)
BACKGROUND: Ramucirumab plus erlotinib (RAM+ERL) demonstrated superior progression-free survival (PFS) in RELAY, a randomised Phase III trial in patients with untreated, metastatic, EGFR-mutated, non-small-cell lung cancer ...
