A Machine Learning Platform to Optimize the Translation of Personalized Network Models to the Clinic.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL ONCOLOGY, 2019-04-17)PURPOSE: Dynamic network models predict clinical prognosis and inform therapeutic intervention by elucidating disease-driven aberrations at the systems level. However, the personalization of model predictions requires the ... -
A Machine-Learning Tool Concurrently Models Single Omics and Phenome Data for Functional Subtyping and Personalized Cancer Medicine.
(MDPI, 2020-09-30)One of the major challenges in defining clinically-relevant and less heterogeneous tumor subtypes is assigning biological and/or clinical interpretations to etiological (intrinsic) subtypes. Conventional clustering/subtyping ... -
A mouse SWATH-mass spectrometry reference spectral library enables deconvolution of species-specific proteomic alterations in human tumour xenografts.
(COMPANY BIOLOGISTS LTD, 2020-06-03)SWATH-mass spectrometry (MS) enables accurate and reproducible proteomic profiling in multiple model organisms including the mouse. Here, we present a comprehensive mouse reference spectral library (MouseRefSWATH) that ... -
A multiple myeloma classification system that associates normal B-cell subset phenotypes with prognosis.
(ELSEVIER, 2018-09-25)Despite the recent progress in treatment of multiple myeloma (MM), it is still an incurable malignant disease, and we are therefore in need of new risk stratification tools that can help us to understand the disease and ... -
A novel DNA methylation score accurately predicts death from prostate cancer in men with low to intermediate clinical risk factors
(2016-11)Clinically aggressive disease behavior is difficult to predict in men with low to intermediate clinical risk prostate cancer and methylation biomarkers may be a valuable adjunct for assessing the management of these patients. ... -
A Novel Statistical Method to Diagnose, Quantify and Correct Batch Effects in Genomic Studies.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2017-09-07)Genome projects now generate large-scale data often produced at various time points by different laboratories using multiple platforms. This increases the potential for batch effects. Currently there are several batch ... -
A novel tankyrase inhibitor, MSC2504877, enhances the effects of clinical CDK4/6 inhibitors.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2019-01-17)Inhibition of the PARP superfamily tankyrase enzymes suppresses Wnt/β-catenin signalling in tumour cells. Here, we describe here a novel, drug-like small molecule inhibitor of tankyrase MSC2504877 that inhibits the growth ... -
A PAM50-Based Chemoendocrine Score for Hormone Receptor-Positive Breast Cancer with an Intermediate Risk of Relapse.
(2017-06)Purpose: Hormone receptor-positive (HR + ) breast cancer is clinically and biologically heterogeneous, and subgroups with different prognostic and treatment sensitivities need to be identified. Experimental Design: ... -
A Perspective on Polo-Like Kinase-1 Inhibition for the Treatment of Rhabdomyosarcomas.
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2019-11-22)Rhabdomyosarcomas are the most common pediatric soft tissue sarcoma and are a major cause of death from cancer in young patients requiring new treatment options to improve outcomes. High-risk patients include those with ... -
A phospho-proteomic study of cetuximab resistance in KRAS/NRAS/BRAFV600 wild-type colorectal cancer.
(SPRINGER, 2021-08-30)PURPOSE: We hypothesised that plasticity in signal transduction may be a mechanism of drug resistance and tested this hypothesis in the setting of cetuximab resistance in patients with KRAS/NRAS/BRAFV600 wild-type colorectal ... -
A rectal cancer feasibility study with an embedded phase III trial design assessing magnetic resonance tumour regression grade (mrTRG) as a novel biomarker to stratify management by good and poor response to chemoradiotherapy (TRIGGER): study protocol for a randomised controlled trial.
(BIOMED CENTRAL LTD, 2017-08-29)BACKGROUND: Pre-operative chemoradiotherapy (CRT) for MRI-defined, locally advanced rectal cancer is primarily intended to reduce local recurrence rates by downstaging tumours, enabling an improved likelihood of curative ... -
A Review of Clinical Practice Guidelines and Treatment Recommendations for Cancer Care in the COVID-19 Pandemic.
(MDPI, 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 ... -
A robust multiplex immunofluorescence and digital pathology workflow for the characterisation of the tumour immune microenvironment.
(WILEY, 2020-10-01)Multiplex immunofluorescence is a powerful tool for the simultaneous detection of tissue-based biomarkers, revolutionising traditional immunohistochemistry. The Opal methodology allows up to eight biomarkers to be measured ... -
A seven-Gene Signature assay improves prognostic risk stratification of perioperative chemotherapy treated gastroesophageal cancer patients from the MAGIC trial.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2018-12-01)BACKGROUND: Following neoadjuvant chemotherapy for operable gastroesophageal cancer, lymph node metastasis is the only validated prognostic variable; however, within lymph node groups there is still heterogeneity with risk ... -
A simple digital image analysis system for automated Ki67 assessment in primary breast cancer.
(WILEY, 2021-08-01)AIMS: Ki67 is a well-established immunohistochemical marker associated with cell proliferation that has prognostic and predictive value in breast cancer. Quantitative evaluation of Ki67 is traditionally performed by assessing ... -
