Modeling Therapy Resistance in BRCA1/2-Mutant Cancers.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2017-09-01)
Although PARP inhibitors target BRCA1- or BRCA2-mutant tumor cells, drug resistance is a problem. PARP inhibitor resistance is sometimes associated with the presence of secondary or "revertant" mutations in BRCA1 or BRCA2 ...
ATR Is a Therapeutic Target in Synovial Sarcoma.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2017-12-15)
Synovial sarcoma (SS) is an aggressive soft-tissue malignancy characterized by expression of SS18-SSX fusions, where treatment options are limited. To identify therapeutically actionable genetic dependencies in SS, we ...
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 ...
Functionally Null RAD51D Missense Mutation Associates Strongly with Ovarian Carcinoma.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2017-08-15)
RAD51D is a key player in DNA repair by homologous recombination (HR), and RAD51D truncating variant carriers have an increased risk for ovarian cancer. However, the contribution of nontruncating RAD51D variants to cancer ...
Phosphoproteomic Profiling Reveals ALK and MET as Novel Actionable Targets across Synovial Sarcoma Subtypes.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2017-08-15)
Despite intensive multimodal treatment of sarcomas, a heterogeneous group of malignant tumors arising from connective tissue, survival remains poor. Candidate-based targeted treatments have demonstrated limited clinical ...
