The use of digital pathology and image analysis in clinical trials.
(WILEY, 2019-04-01)
Digital pathology and image analysis potentially provide greater accuracy, reproducibility and standardisation of pathology-based trial entry criteria and endpoints, alongside extracting new insights from both existing and ...
Crosstalk with lung fibroblasts shapes the growth and therapeutic response of mesothelioma cells.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2023-11-08)
Mesothelioma is an aggressive cancer of the mesothelial layer associated with an extensive fibrotic response. The latter is in large part mediated by cancer-associated fibroblasts which mediate tumour progression and poor ...
Microsatellite instability in gastric cancer: molecular bases, clinical perspectives, and new treatment approaches.
(SPRINGER BASEL AG, 2018-11-01)
Gastric cancer is one of the most aggressive malignancies, with limited treatment options in both locally advanced and metastatic setting, resulting in poor prognosis. Based on genomic characterization, stomach tumour has ...
Adding abiraterone or docetaxel to long-term hormone therapy for prostate cancer: directly randomised data from the STAMPEDE multi-arm, multi-stage platform protocol.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2018-05-01)
BACKGROUND: Adding abiraterone acetate with prednisolone (AAP) or docetaxel with prednisolone (DocP) to standard-of-care (SOC) each improved survival in systemic therapy for advanced or metastatic prostate cancer: evaluation ...
Abiraterone in "High-" and "Low-risk" Metastatic Hormone-sensitive Prostate Cancer.
(ELSEVIER, 2019-12-01)
BACKGROUND: Abiraterone acetate received licencing for use in only "high-risk" metastatic hormone-naïve prostate cancer (mHNPC) following the LATITUDE trial findings. However, a "risk"-related effect was not seen in the ...
Detecting truly clonal alterations from multi-region profiling of tumours.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2017-03-27)
Modern cancer therapies aim at targeting tumour-specific alterations, such as mutations or neo-antigens, and maximal treatment efficacy requires that targeted alterations are present in all tumour cells. Currently, treatment ...
Cancer associated fibroblast FAK regulates malignant cell metabolism.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-03-10)
Emerging evidence suggests that cancer cell metabolism can be regulated by cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), but the mechanisms are poorly defined. Here we show that CAFs regulate malignant cell metabolism through ...
Biopsy variability of lymphocytic infiltration in breast cancer subtypes and the ImmunoSkew score.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2016-11-04)
The number of tumour biopsies required for a good representation of tumours has been controversial. An important factor to consider is intra-tumour heterogeneity, which can vary among cancer types and subtypes. Immune cells ...
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 ...
