A blood transcriptome-based analysis of disease progression, immune regulation, and symptoms in coronavirus-infected patients.
(2020-12-08)COVID-19 patients show heterogeneity in clinical presentation and outcomes that makes pandemic control and strategy difficult; optimizing management requires a systems biology approach of understanding the disease. Here ... -
Defective ALC1 nucleosome remodeling confers PARPi sensitization and synthetic lethality with HRD.
(2020-12-15)Chromatin is a barrier to efficient DNA repair, as it hinders access and processing of certain DNA lesions. ALC1/CHD1L is a nucleosome-remodeling enzyme that responds to DNA damage, but its precise function in DNA repair ... -
Clinical and co-clinical genomics of paediatric solid tumours with a special focus in DIPG
(2020-07-31)Cure rates for paediatric solid cancers have not improved in the last decade. Delivering precision medicine to stratify patients based on their molecular profiling is a key goal to support existing and upcoming adaptive ... -
Abiraterone in "High-" and "Low-risk" Metastatic Hormone-sensitive Prostate Cancer.
<h4>Background</h4>Abiraterone acetate received licencing for use in only "high-risk" metastatic hormone-naïve prostate cancer (mHNPC) following the LATITUDE trial findings. However, a "risk"-related effect was not seen ... -
Genomic and transcriptomic heterogeneity in metaplastic carcinomas of the breast.
Metaplastic breast cancer (MBC) is a rare special histologic type of triple-negative breast cancer, characterized by the presence of neoplastic cells showing differentiation towards squamous epithelium and/or mesenchymal ... -

Artificial intelligence and digital pathology: Opportunities and implications for immuno-oncology.
(2021-02-06)The field of immuno-oncology has expanded rapidly over the past decade, but key questions remain. How does tumour-immune interaction regulate disease progression? How can we prospectively identify patients who will benefit ... -
Olaparib and temozolomide in desmoplastic small round cell tumors: a promising combination in vitro and in vivo.
<h4>Purpose</h4>Desmoplastic small round cell tumors (DSRCTs) are highly malignant and very rare soft tissue sarcomas with a high unmet need for new therapeutic options. Therefore, we examined poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase ... -
EGFR Blockade Reverts Resistance to KRAS<sup>G12C</sup> Inhibition in Colorectal Cancer.
Most patients with <i>KRAS</i> <sup>G12C</sup>-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) experience clinical benefit from selective KRAS<sup>G12C</sup> inhibition, whereas patients with colorectal cancer bearing the same ... -
A Review of Clinical Practice Guidelines and Treatment Recommendations for Cancer Care in the COVID-19 Pandemic.
(2020-08-29)The COVID-19 pandemic has inevitably caused those involved in cancer care to change clinical practice in order to minimize the risk of infection while maintaining cancer treatment as a priority. General advice during the ... -
Vault RNAs: hidden gems in RNA and protein regulation.
(2020-10-15)Non-coding RNAs are important regulators of differentiation during embryogenesis as well as key players in the fine-tuning of transcription and furthermore, they control the post-transcriptional regulation of mRNAs under ... -
Hypoxia and its therapeutic possibilities in paediatric cancers.
(2020-10-27)In tumours, hypoxia-a condition in which the demand for oxygen is higher than its availability-is well known to be associated with reduced sensitivity to radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and with immunosuppression. The ... -
Optimal Clinical Management and the Molecular Biology of Angiosarcomas.
(2020-11-10)Angiosarcomas comprise less than 3% of all soft tissue sarcomas but have a poor prognosis. Most angiosarcomas occur without obvious risk factors but secondary angiosarcoma could arise after radiotherapy or chronic lymphedema. ... -
Exposure-Response and Population Pharmacokinetic Analyses of a Novel Subcutaneous Formulation of Daratumumab Administered to Multiple Myeloma Patients.
(2020-11-03)We report the population pharmacokinetic (PK) and exposure-response analyses of a novel subcutaneous formulation of daratumumab (DARA) using data from 3 DARA subcutaneous monotherapy studies (PAVO Part 2, MMY1008, COLUMBA) ... -
HOX genes promote cell proliferation and are potential therapeutic targets in adrenocortical tumours.
(2020-11-20)<h4>Background</h4>Understanding the pathways that drive adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is essential to the development of more effective therapies. This study investigates the role of the transcription factor HOXB9 and ... -
WDHD1 is essential for the survival of PTEN-inactive triple-negative breast cancer.
(2020-11-21)Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive type of breast cancer that lacks the oestrogen receptor, progesterone receptor and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2, making it difficult to target ... -
<sup>18</sup>F-meta-fluorobenzylguanidine (<sup>18</sup>F-mFBG) to monitor changes in norepinephrine transporter expression in response to therapeutic intervention in neuroblastoma models.
(2020-12)Targeted radiotherapy with <sup>131</sup>I-mIBG, a substrate of the human norepinephrine transporter (NET-1), shows promising responses in heavily pre-treated neuroblastoma (NB) patients. Combinatorial approaches that ...
