Hypofractionated breast radiotherapy for 1 week versus 3 weeks (FAST-Forward): 5-year efficacy and late normal tissue effects results from a multicentre, non-inferiority, randomised, phase 3 trial.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2020-05-23)BACKGROUND: We aimed to identify a five-fraction schedule of adjuvant radiotherapy (radiation therapy) delivered in 1 week that is non-inferior in terms of local cancer control and is as safe as an international standard ... -
Hypofractionated radiotherapy in locally advanced bladder cancer: an individual patient data meta-analysis of the BC2001 and BCON trials.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2021-02-01)BACKGROUND: Two radiotherapy fractionation schedules are used to treat locally advanced bladder cancer: 64 Gy in 32 fractions over 6·5 weeks and a hypofractionated schedule of 55 Gy in 20 fractions over 4 weeks. Long-term ... -
Hypofractionated radiotherapy versus conventionally fractionated radiotherapy for patients with intermediate-risk localised prostate cancer: 2-year patient-reported outcomes of the randomised, non-inferiority, phase 3 CHHiP trial.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2015-12-01)BACKGROUND: Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) might detect more toxic effects of radiotherapy than do clinician-reported outcomes. We did a quality of life (QoL) substudy to assess PROs up to 24 months after conventionally ... -
Hypofractionated Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy for Recurrent or Oligometastatic Tumours in Children and Young Adults.
Aims Cancer remains a leading cause of death in children and adolescents in the developed world. Despite advances in oncological management, rates of primary treatment failure remain significant. Radiation of recurrent or ... -
Hypoxia and its therapeutic possibilities in paediatric cancers.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2021-02-02)In tumours, hypoxia-a condition in which the demand for oxygen is higher than its availability-is well known to be associated with reduced sensitivity to radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and with immunosuppression. The ... -
Identification of 12 new susceptibility loci for different histotypes of epithelial ovarian cancer.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2017-05-01)To identify common alleles associated with different histotypes of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), we pooled data from multiple genome-wide genotyping projects totaling 25,509 EOC cases and 40,941 controls. We identified ... -
Identification of 19 new risk loci and potential regulatory mechanisms influencing susceptibility to testicular germ cell tumor.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2017-07-01)Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have transformed understanding of susceptibility to testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs), but much of the heritability remains unexplained. Here we report a new GWAS, a meta-analysis ... -
Identification of Germline Genetic Variants that Increase Prostate Cancer Risk and Influence Development of Aggressive Disease.
(MDPI, 2021-02-12)Prostate cancer (PrCa) is a heterogeneous disease, which presents in individual patients across a diverse phenotypic spectrum ranging from indolent to fatal forms. No robust biomarkers are currently available to enable ... -
Identification of multiple risk loci and regulatory mechanisms influencing susceptibility to multiple myeloma.
(2018-09-13)Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have transformed our understanding of susceptibility to multiple myeloma (MM), but much of the heritability remains unexplained. We report a new GWAS, a meta-analysis with previous ... -

Identification of nine new susceptibility loci for testicular cancer, including variants near DAZL and PRDM14.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2013-06-01)Testicular germ cell tumor (TGCT) is the most common cancer in young men and is notable for its high familial risks. So far, six loci associated with TGCT have been reported. From genome-wide association study (GWAS) ... -
Identification of Novel Susceptibility Loci and Genes for Prostate Cancer Risk: A Transcriptome-Wide Association Study in Over 140,000 European Descendants.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2019-07-01)Genome-wide association study-identified prostate cancer risk variants explain only a relatively small fraction of its familial relative risk, and the genes responsible for many of these identified associations remain ... -
Identification of ten variants associated with risk of estrogen-receptor-negative breast cancer.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2017-12-01)Most common breast cancer susceptibility variants have been identified through genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of predominantly estrogen receptor (ER)-positive disease. We conducted a GWAS using 21,468 ER-negative ... -
IGF1R signalling in testicular germ cell tumour cells impacts on cell survival and acquired cisplatin resistance.
(WILEY, 2018-02-01)Testicular germ cell tumours (TGCTs) are the most frequent malignancy and cause of death from solid tumours in the 20- to 40-year age group. Although most cases show sensitivity to cis-platinum-based chemotherapy, this is ... -
Image-guided Adaptive Radiotherapy for Bladder Cancer.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE LONDON, 2021-06-01)Technological advancement has facilitated patient-specific radiotherapy in bladder cancer. This has been made possible by developments in image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT). Particularly transformative has been the integration ... -
