A blood transcriptome-based analysis of disease progression, immune regulation, and symptoms in coronavirus-infected patients.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 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 ... -
A causal mechanism for childhood acute lymphoblastic leukaemia.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2018-08-01)In this Review, I present evidence supporting a multifactorial causation of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL), a major subtype of paediatric cancer. ALL evolves in two discrete steps. First, in utero initiation ... -
A clinical prediction model for outcome and therapy delivery in transplant-ineligible patients with myeloma (UK Myeloma Research Alliance Risk Profile): a development and validation study.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2019-03-01)BACKGROUND: Tolerability of treatments for multiple myeloma can depend on the characteristics of the patient being treated. We aimed to develop and validate a risk profile, using routinely collected data, that could predict ... -
A Compendium of Co-regulated Protein Complexes in Breast Cancer Reveals Collateral Loss Events.
(CELL PRESS, 2017-10-25)Protein complexes are responsible for the bulk of activities within the cell, but how their behavior and abundance varies across tumors remains poorly understood. By combining proteomic profiles of breast tumors with a ... -
A Cross-Species Analysis in Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors Reveals Molecular Subtypes with Distinctive Clinical, Metastatic, Developmental, and Metabolic Characteristics.
(2015-12)Unlabelled Seeking to assess the representative and instructive value of an engineered mouse model of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PanNET) for its cognate human cancer, we profiled and compared mRNA and miRNA ... -
A decade of clinical development of PARP inhibitors in perspective.
(ELSEVIER, 2019-09-01)Genomic instability is a hallmark of cancer, and often is the result of altered DNA repair capacities in tumour cells. DNA damage repair defects are common in different cancer types; these alterations can also induce ... -
A digital pathway for genetic testing in UK NHS patients with cancer: BRCA-DIRECT randomised study internal pilot.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2022-07-22)BACKGROUND: Germline genetic testing affords multiple opportunities for women with breast cancer, however, current UK NHS models for delivery of germline genetic testing are clinician-intensive and only a minority of breast ... -
A Four-gene Decision Tree Signature Classification of Triple-negative Breast Cancer: Implications for Targeted Therapeutics.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2019-01-01)The molecular complexity of triple-negative breast cancers (TNBCs) provides a challenge for patient management. We set out to characterize this heterogeneous disease by combining transcriptomics and genomics data, with the ... -
A genome-wide association study identifies risk loci for childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia at 10q26.13 and 12q23.1.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-03-01)Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have shown that common genetic variation contributes to the heritable risk of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). To identify new susceptibility loci for the largest subtype ... -
A genomic atlas of human adrenal and gonad development.
(2017-04-07)Background In humans, the adrenal glands and gonads undergo distinct biological events between 6-10 weeks post conception (wpc), such as testis determination, the onset of steroidogenesis and primordial germ cell development. ... -
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 PUBLISHING GROUP, 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 ...
