MicroRNAs as biomarkers of response to HER2 inhibitors in gastro-oesophageal cancers
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-01-31)Trastuzumab in combination with chemotherapy represents the standard of care in HER2-positive advanced gastro-oesophageal cancer (GOC), but development of resistance limits response. MicroRNAs (miRs) modulate key pathways ... -
Molecular characterisation and functional assessment of FGFR3 mutations in cancer
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2020-01-31)Genetic alterations such as mutations in the Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptors (FGFRs) family play important roles in the development and progression of several cancer types. How these mutations affect protein function ... -
Next generation circulating tumour DNA detection and subclonality analysis for gastrointestinal cancer therapy personalisation
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-05-31)Background: Gastrointestinal cancers are associated with poor outcomes as many patients present with advanced disease. Intratumour heterogeneity (ITH) is a major barrier to predicting the evolution of cancers and successful ... -
Reconstructing cancer evolution at the single-cell level in patient-derived organoids
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2024-01-30)Genetic mutations in cancer driver genes are heritable and can confer aggressive and therapy-resistant properties to cells. However genetic driver events do not fully explain the malignant phenotype, and it is becoming ... -
Spatial interrogation of tumour microenvironment using artificial intelligence
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2023-03-06)The tumour microenvironment can provide critical information for disease diagnosis, treatment planning, and prognosis. However, the complexity of its morphological, cellular, and spatial architecture hinders accurate ... -
Spatial Phenotyping of Tumour Immune Microenvironment in the Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Using Artificial Intelligence
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2024-02-26)Lung cancer is the second most common cancer type worldwide, with a five-year survival rate of about 20%. The aggressiveness of the disease and the inefficiency of treatment are partially attributed to the intra-tumour ... -
The molecular pathology of infant gliomas
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2021-04-30)Infant high grade gliomas appear clinically distinct from their counterparts in older children, indicating that histopathologic grading may not accurately reflect the biology of these tumours. I have collected 241 cases ... -
Utilising Quantitative Imaging And Radiomics To Unravel Intra-tumoural Heterogeneity In Soft Tissue Sarcoma
(Institute of Cancer Research (University Of London), 2024-05-09)Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are rare mesenchymal tumours that exhibit extensive biological and clinical heterogeneity. Our understanding of this heterogeneity is incomplete and has continued to be a barrier to clinical ...
