Tropomyosin receptor kinase inhibitors in the management of sarcomas.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2020-06-05)
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Genetic aberrations resulting in tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) fusion proteins can drive oncogenesis and are postulated to occur in up to 1% of solid tumours. However, TRK fusions in adult sarcomas ...
Targeting the Src Pathway Enhances the Efficacy of Selective FGFR Inhibitors in Urothelial Cancers with FGFR3 Alterations.
(MDPI, 2020-05-01)
Selective FGFR inhibitors such as infigratinib (BGJ398) and erdafitinib (JNJ-42756493) have been evaluated in clinical trials for cancers with FGFR3 molecular alterations, particularly in urothelial carcinoma patients. ...
Phase III Soft Tissue Sarcoma Trials: Success or Failure?
(SPRINGER, 2017-03-01)
Two recently reported phase III randomised control trials (RCTs) have resulted in the registration of two new systemic therapies for advanced soft tissue sarcoma. Both of these trials' designs were informed by phase II ...
Exploiting Synthetic Lethality and Network Biology to Overcome EGFR Inhibitor Resistance in Lung Cancer.
(ACADEMIC PRESS LTD- ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2017-06-16)
Despite the recent approval of third-generation therapies, overcoming resistance to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitors remains a major challenge in non-small cell lung cancer. Conceptually, synthetic lethality ...
Systematic analysis of tumour cell-extracellular matrix adhesion identifies independent prognostic factors in breast cancer.
(IMPACT JOURNALS LLC, 2016-08-17)
Tumour cell-extracellular matrix (ECM) interactions are fundamental for discrete steps in breast cancer progression. In particular, cancer cell adhesion to ECM proteins present in the microenvironment is critical for ...
Novel therapeutic approaches in chondrosarcoma.
(FUTURE MEDICINE LTD, 2017-03-01)
Chondrosarcoma is a malignant tumor of bones, characterized by the production of cartilage matrix. Due to lack of effective treatment for advanced disease, the clinical management of chondrosarcomas is exceptionally ...
Advances in mass spectrometry based strategies to study receptor tyrosine kinases.
(INT UNION CRYSTALLOGRAPHY, 2017-02-23)
Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are key transmembrane environmental sensors that are capable of transmitting extracellular information into phenotypic responses, including cell proliferation, survival and metabolism. ...
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 ...
Comparative proteomic assessment of matrisome enrichment methodologies.
(PORTLAND PRESS LTD, 2016-11-01)
The matrisome is a complex and heterogeneous collection of extracellular matrix (ECM) and ECM-associated proteins that play important roles in tissue development and homeostasis. While several strategies for matrisome ...
Spatial localisation of Discoidin Domain Receptor 2 (DDR2) signalling is dependent on its collagen binding and kinase activity.
(ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2018-06-18)
Discoidin Domain Receptor 2 (DDR2) is a collagen-binding receptor tyrosine kinase that initiates delayed and sustained tyrosine phosphorylation signalling. To understand the molecular basis of this unique phosphorylation ...
