Discovery of 4,6-disubstituted pyrimidines as potent inhibitors of the heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) stress pathway and CDK9.
Rye, CS; Chessum, NEA; Lamont, S; Pike, KG; Faulder, P; et al. (ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY, 2016-08-01)Heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) is a transcription factor that plays key roles in cancer, including providing a mechanism for cell survival under proteotoxic stress. Therefore, inhibition of the HSF1-stress pathway represents ... -
Imaging biomarker roadmap for cancer studies.
O'Connor, JPB; Aboagye, EO; Adams, JE; Aerts, HJWL; Barrington, SF; et al. (NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2017-03-01)Imaging biomarkers (IBs) are integral to the routine management of patients with cancer. IBs used daily in oncology include clinical TNM stage, objective response and left ventricular ejection fraction. Other CT, MRI, PET ... -
Inhibition of mTOR-kinase destabilizes MYCN and is a potential therapy for MYCN-dependent tumors.
Vaughan, L; Clarke, PA; Barker, K; Chanthery, Y; Gustafson, CW; et al. (IMPACT JOURNALS LLC, 2016-09-06)MYC oncoproteins deliver a potent oncogenic stimulus in several human cancers, making them major targets for drug development, but efforts to deliver clinically practical therapeutics have not yet been realized. In childhood ... -
Orally bioavailable CDK9/2 inhibitor shows mechanism-based therapeutic potential in MYCN-driven neuroblastoma.
Poon, E; Liang, T; Jamin, Y; Walz, S; Kwok, C; et al. (AMER SOC CLINICAL INVESTIGATION INC, 2020-11-02)The undruggable nature of oncogenic Myc transcription factors poses a therapeutic challenge in neuroblastoma, a pediatric cancer in which MYCN amplification is strongly associated with unfavorable outcome. Here, we show ... -
Patient-derived organoids model treatment response of metastatic gastrointestinal cancers.
Vlachogiannis, G; Hedayat, S; Vatsiou, A; Jamin, Y; Fernández-Mateos, J; et al. (AMER ASSOC ADVANCEMENT SCIENCE, 2018-02-23)Patient-derived organoids (PDOs) have recently emerged as robust preclinical models; however, their potential to predict clinical outcomes in patients has remained unclear. We report on a living biobank of PDOs from ... -
Pediatric and adult glioblastoma radiosensitization induced by PI3K/mTOR inhibition causes early metabolic alterations detected by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
Agliano, A; Balarajah, G; Ciobota, DM; Sidhu, J; Clarke, PA; et al. (IMPACT JOURNALS LLC, 2017-07-18)Poor outcome for patients with glioblastomas is often associated with radioresistance. PI3K/mTOR pathway deregulation has been correlated with radioresistance; therefore, PI3K/mTOR inhibition could render tumors radiosensitive. ... -
Sequencing of prostate cancers identifies new cancer genes, routes of progression and drug targets.
Wedge, DC; Gundem, G; Mitchell, T; Woodcock, DJ; Martincorena, I; et al. (NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-05-01)Prostate cancer represents a substantial clinical challenge because it is difficult to predict outcome and advanced disease is often fatal. We sequenced the whole genomes of 112 primary and metastatic prostate cancer ... -
The BRAF Inhibitor Vemurafenib Activates Mitochondrial Metabolism and Inhibits Hyperpolarized Pyruvate-Lactate Exchange in BRAF-Mutant Human Melanoma Cells.
Delgado-Goni, T; Miniotis, MF; Wantuch, S; Parkes, HG; Marais, R; et al. (AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2016-12-01)Understanding the impact of BRAF signaling inhibition in human melanoma on key disease mechanisms is important for developing biomarkers of therapeutic response and combination strategies to improve long-term disease ...
