Sequencing of prostate cancers identifies new cancer genes, routes of progression and drug targets.
(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 ...
Descriptive analysis of MRI functional changes occurring during reduced dose radiotherapy for myxoid liposarcomas.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2021-10-01)
OBJECTIVES: Myxoid liposarcomas (MLS) show enhanced response to radiotherapy due to their distinctive vascular pattern and therefore could be effectively treated with lower radiation doses. This is a descriptive study to ...
Gene and pathway level analyses of germline DNA-repair gene variants and prostate cancer susceptibility using the iCOGS-genotyping array.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2016-04-12)
BACKGROUND: Germline mutations within DNA-repair genes are implicated in susceptibility to multiple forms of cancer. For prostate cancer (PrCa), rare mutations in BRCA2 and BRCA1 give rise to moderately elevated risk, ...
Alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma with regional nodal involvement: Results of a combined analysis from two cooperative groups.
(WILEY, 2021-03-01)
BACKGROUND: Treatment of children and adolescents with alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS) and regional nodal involvement (N1) have been approached differently by North American and European cooperative groups. In order to ...
BOXIT-A Randomised Phase III Placebo-controlled Trial Evaluating the Addition of Celecoxib to Standard Treatment of Transitional Cell Carcinoma of the Bladder (CRUK/07/004).
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2019-04-01)
BACKGROUND: Non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) has a significant risk of recurrence despite adjuvant intravesical therapy. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether celecoxib, a cyclo-oxygenase 2 inhibitor, reduces the risk ...
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 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) ...
Validated machine learning tools to distinguish immune checkpoint inhibitor, radiotherapy, COVID-19 and other infective pneumonitis.
(Elsevier BV, 2024-06-01)
BACKGROUND: Pneumonitis is a well-described, potentially disabling, or fatal adverse effect associated with both immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) and thoracic radiotherapy. Accurate differentiation between checkpoint ...
Large-scale Analysis Demonstrates Familial Testicular Cancer to have Polygenic Aetiology.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2018-09-01)
UNLABELLED: Testicular germ cell tumour (TGCT) is the most common cancer in young men. Multiplex TGCT families have been well reported and analyses of population cancer registries have demonstrated a four- to eightfold ...
Cross-Cancer Genome-Wide Analysis of Lung, Ovary, Breast, Prostate, and Colorectal Cancer Reveals Novel Pleiotropic Associations.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2016-09-01)
Identifying genetic variants with pleiotropic associations can uncover common pathways influencing multiple cancers. We took a two-stage approach to conduct genome-wide association studies for lung, ovary, breast, prostate, ...
