Antiviral antibody responses to systemic administration of an oncolytic RNA virus: the impact of standard concomitant anticancer chemotherapies.
(BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, 2021-01-01)BACKGROUND: Oncolytic reovirus therapy for cancer induces a typical antiviral response to this RNA virus, including neutralizing antibodies. Concomitant treatment with cytotoxic chemotherapies has been hypothesized to ... -
Recent advances in testicular germ cell tumours.
(Faculty Opinions Ltd, 2021-01-01)Testicular germ cell tumours (TGCTs) are the most common solid tumours in young men and have an excellent overall cure rate and prognosis. In most patients, localised disease is cured by surgery alone, and a minority of ... -
Updates in Prostate Cancer Research and Screening in Men at Genetically Higher Risk.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2021-01-01)PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Prostate cancer (PrCa) is the most common cancer in men in the western world and is a major source of morbidity and mortality. Currently, general population PrCa screening is not recommended due to the ... -
Targeted PET/MRI Imaging Super Probes: A Critical Review of Opportunities and Challenges.
(DOVE MEDICAL PRESS LTD, 2021-01-01)Recently, the demand for hybrid PET/MRI imaging techniques has increased significantly, which has sparked the investigation into new ways to simultaneously track multiple molecular targets and improve the localization and ... -

Characterisation of Prostate Lesions Using Transrectal Shear Wave Elastography (SWE) Ultrasound Imaging: A Systematic Review.
(MDPI, 2021-01-02)BACKGROUND: ultrasound-based shear wave elastography (SWE) can non-invasively assess prostate tissue stiffness. This systematic review aims to evaluate SWE for the detection of prostate cancer (PCa) and compare diagnostic ... -
Trans-ancestry genome-wide association meta-analysis of prostate cancer identifies new susceptibility loci and informs genetic risk prediction.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2021-01-04)Prostate cancer is a highly heritable disease with large disparities in incidence rates across ancestry populations. We conducted a multiancestry meta-analysis of prostate cancer genome-wide association studies (107,247 ... -
Computational Image Analysis of T-Cell Infiltrates in Resectable Gastric Cancer: Association with Survival and Molecular Subtypes.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS INC, 2021-01-04)BACKGROUND: Gastric and gastro-esophageal junction cancers (GCs) frequently recur after resection, but markers to predict recurrence risk are missing. T-cell infiltrates have been validated as prognostic markers in other ... -
CT diagnosis of ilioinguinal lymph node metastases in melanoma using radiological characteristics beyond size and asymmetry.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2021-01-08)BACKGROUND: Diagnosis of lymph node (LN) metastasis in melanoma with non-invasive methods is challenging. The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of six LN characteristics on CT in detecting ... -
Additional SNPs improve risk stratification of a polygenic hazard score for prostate cancer.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2021-01-08)BACKGROUND: Polygenic hazard scores (PHS) can identify individuals with increased risk of prostate cancer. We estimated the benefit of additional SNPs on performance of a previously validated PHS (PHS46). MATERIALS AND ... -
Rare Germline Variants in ATM Predispose to Prostate Cancer: A PRACTICAL Consortium Study.
(ELSEVIER, 2021-01-09)BACKGROUND: Germline ATM mutations are suggested to contribute to predisposition to prostate cancer (PrCa). Previous studies have had inadequate power to estimate variant effect sizes. OBJECTIVE: To precisely estimate the ... -
Targeting Cancer Heterogeneity with Immune Responses Driven by Oncolytic Peptides.
(CELL PRESS, 2021-01-11)Accumulating preclinical and clinical evidence indicates that high degrees of heterogeneity among malignant cells constitute a considerable obstacle to the success of cancer therapy. This calls for the development of ... -
MRI texture feature repeatability and image acquisition factor robustness, a phantom study and in silico study.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2021-01-19)PURPOSE: To evaluate robustness and repeatability of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) texture features in water and tissue phantom test-retest study. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Separate water and tissue phantoms were imaged ... -
