(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2016-03-17) -
Dual blockade of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR (AZD8055) and RAS/MEK/ERK (AZD6244) pathways synergistically inhibits rhabdomyosarcoma cell growth in vitro and in vivo.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2013-08-05)PURPOSE: To provide rationale for using phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) and/or mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway inhibitors to treat rhabdomyosarcomas, a major cause of pediatric and adolescent cancer deaths. ... -
Dual IGF1R/IR inhibitors in combination with GD2-CAR T-cells display a potent anti-tumor activity in diffuse midline glioma H3K27M-mutant.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS INC, 2022-07-01)BACKGROUND: Diffuse midline gliomas (DMG) H3K27M-mutant, including diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG), are pediatric brain tumors associated with grim prognosis. Although GD2-CAR T-cells demonstrated significant ... -
Dual Targeting of PDGFRα and FGFR1 Displays Synergistic Efficacy in Malignant Rhabdoid Tumors.
(CELL PRESS, 2016-10-25)Subunits of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex are mutated in a significant proportion of human cancers. Malignant rhabdoid tumors (MRTs) are lethal pediatric cancers characterized by a deficiency in the SWI/SNF ... -
Ductal Ngn3-expressing progenitors contribute to adult β cell neogenesis in the pancreas.
(CELL PRESS, 2021-11-04)Ductal cells have been proposed as a source of adult β cell neogenesis, but this has remained controversial. By combining lineage tracing, 3D imaging, and single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) approaches, we show that ... -
E-Cadherin/ROS1 Inhibitor Synthetic Lethality in Breast Cancer.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2018-04-01)The cell adhesion glycoprotein E-cadherin (CDH1) is commonly inactivated in breast tumors. Precision medicine approaches that exploit this characteristic are not available. Using perturbation screens in breast tumor cells ... -
Early Enrichment of ESR1 Mutations and the Impact on Gene Expression in Presurgical Primary Breast Cancer Treated with Aromatase Inhibitors.
(2019-12)PURPOSE:To investigate the presence of ESR1 mutations in primary estrogen-receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer treated with extended (>4 weeks) neoadjuvant (presurgical) aromatase inhibitor (NAI) therapy and to identify ... -
Early Enrichment of ESR1 Mutations and the Impact on Gene Expression in Presurgical Primary Breast Cancer Treated with Aromatase Inhibitors.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2019-12-15)PURPOSE: To investigate the presence of ESR1 mutations in primary estrogen-receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer treated with extended (>4 weeks) neoadjuvant (presurgical) aromatase inhibitor (NAI) therapy and to identify ... -
Early relapse after high-dose melphalan autologous stem cell transplant predicts inferior survival and is associated with high disease burden and genetically high-risk disease in multiple myeloma.
(WILEY, 2020-06-10)Predicting patient outcome in multiple myeloma remains challenging despite the availability of standard prognostic biomarkers. We investigated outcome for patients relapsing early from intensive therapy on NCRI Myeloma XI. ... -
Effect of Pathologic Tumor Response and Nodal Status on Survival in the Medical Research Council Adjuvant Gastric Infusional Chemotherapy Trial.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL ONCOLOGY, 2016-08-10)PURPOSE: The Medical Research Council Adjuvant Gastric Infusional Chemotherapy (MAGIC) trial established perioperative epirubicin, cisplatin, and fluorouracil chemotherapy as a standard of care for patients with resectable ... -
Efficacy and Cardiotoxic Safety Profile of Raltitrexed in Fluoropyrimidines-Pretreated or High-Risk Cardiac Patients With GI Malignancies: Large Single-Center Experience.
(CIG MEDIA GROUP, LP, 2019-03-01)BACKGROUND: Gastrointestinal (GI) cancer patients may not be considered for therapy with fluoropyrimidines (FPs) because of previous cardiovascular (CV) toxicity or preexisting risk factors; such patients may benefit from ... -
Efficacy and safety of larotrectinib in TRK fusion-positive primary central nervous system tumors
Abstract Background Larotrectinib is a first-in-class, highly selective tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) inhibitor approved to treat adult and pediatric patients with TRK fusion-positive cancer. The aim of this study was ... -
Efficacy of Eribulin in Soft Tissue Sarcomas.
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2022-03-30)Soft tissue sarcomas are a highly heterogenous group of tumors with limited systemic therapy options. Eribulin, a synthetic analogue of halichondrin B, is a potent mitotic inhibitor. A phase 3 trial of previously treated ... -
Efficacy of Gemcitabine-based Chemotherapy in Clear Cell Sarcoma of Soft Tissue.
(INT INST ANTICANCER RESEARCH, 2020-12-01)BACKGROUND/AIM: Clear cell sarcoma (CCS) is an aggressive sarcoma subtype, resistant to conventional anthracycline-based chemotherapy and radiation. The diagnosis is often challenging due to similarities with malignant ... -
Efficient Genotyping of KRAS Mutant Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Using a Multiplexed Droplet Digital PCR Approach.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2015-09-28)Droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) can be used to detect low frequency mutations in oncogene-driven lung cancer. The range of KRAS point mutations observed in NSCLC necessitates a multiplex approach to efficient mutation detection ... -
