Combined MYC and P53 defects emerge at medulloblastoma relapse and define rapidly progressive, therapeutically targetable disease.
Hill, RM; Kuijper, S; Lindsey, JC; Petrie, K; Schwalbe, EC; et al. (CELL PRESS, 2015-01-12)We undertook a comprehensive clinical and biological investigation of serial medulloblastoma biopsies obtained at diagnosis and relapse. Combined MYC family amplifications and P53 pathway defects commonly emerged at relapse, ... -
In Vivo Modeling of Chemoresistant Neuroblastoma Provides New Insights into Chemorefractory Disease and Metastasis.
Yogev, O; Almeida, GS; Barker, KT; George, SL; Kwok, C; et al. (AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2019-10-15)Neuroblastoma is a pediatric cancer that is frequently metastatic and resistant to conventional treatment. In part, a lack of natively metastatic, chemoresistant in vivo models has limited our insight into the development ... -
MYCN expression induces replication stress and sensitivity to PARP inhibition in neuroblastoma.
King, D; Li, XD; Almeida, GS; Kwok, C; Gravells, P; et al. (Impact Journals, LLC, 2020-06-09)This study investigates the influence expression of the MYCN oncogene has on the DNA damage response, replication fork progression and sensitivity to PARP inhibition in neuroblastoma. In a panel of neuroblastoma cell lines, ... -
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 ...
