Association of the CHEK2 c.1100delC variant, radiotherapy, and systemic treatment with contralateral breast cancer risk and breast cancer-specific survival.
(WILEY, 2023-08-01)BACKGROUND: Breast cancer (BC) patients with a germline CHEK2 c.1100delC variant have an increased risk of contralateral BC (CBC) and worse BC-specific survival (BCSS) compared to non-carriers. AIM: To assessed the ... -
Identification of an Imidazopyridine-based Compound as an Oral Selective Estrogen Receptor Degrader for Breast Cancer Therapy.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2023-07-27)UNLABELLED: The pro-oncogenic activities of estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) drive breast cancer pathogenesis. Endocrine therapies that impair the production of estrogen or the action of the ERα are therefore used to prevent ... -
Evaluation of non-vendor magnetic resonance imaging sequences for use in bladder cancer magnetic resonance image guided radiotherapy.

Obinutuzumab Versus Rituximab Immunochemotherapy in Previously Untreated iNHL: Final Results From the GALLIUM Study.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2023-07-01)The phase III GALLIUM trial assessed the safety and efficacy of obinutuzumab-based versus rituximab-based immunochemotherapy in patients with previously untreated follicular lymphoma (FL) or marginal zone lymphoma (MZL). ... -
Increase in power by obtaining 10 or more controls per case when type-1 error is small in large-scale association studies.
(BMC, 2023-06-29)BACKGROUND: The rule of thumb that there is little gain in statistical power by obtaining more than 4 controls per case, is based on type-1 error α = 0.05. However, association studies that evaluate thousands or millions ... -
Evaluation of Performance Tradeoffs When Using Mechanically Swept 1-D Linear Arrays for 3-D DCE-US.
(IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC, 2023-07-01)Dynamic contrast-enhanced ultrasound imaging (DCE-US) may be used to characterize tumor vascular perfusion using metrics derived from time-amplitude curves (TACs). The 3-D DCE-US enables generation of 3-D parametric maps ... -
Incorporating clinicopathological and molecular risk prediction tools to improve outcomes in early HR+/HER2- breast cancer.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2023-06-28)Stratification of recurrence risk is a cornerstone of early breast cancer diagnosis that informs a patient's optimal treatment pathway. Several tools exist that combine clinicopathological and molecular information, including ... -
Prospective Evaluation of Whole-Body MRI versus FDG PET/CT for Lesion Detection in Participants with Myeloma.
(RADIOLOGICAL SOC NORTH AMERICA (RSNA), 2021-09-01)Purpose To compare disease detection of myeloma using contemporary whole-body (WB) MRI and fluorine 18 (18F) fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/CT protocols and to correlate imaging with laboratory estimates of disease burden, ... -
A HUWE1 defect causes PARP inhibitor resistance by modulating the BRCA1-∆11q splice variant.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2023-09-01)Although PARP inhibitors (PARPi) now form part of the standard-of-care for the treatment of homologous recombination defective cancers, de novo and acquired resistance limits their overall effectiveness. Previously, ... -
A Phase Ib/II study of IGF-neutralising antibody xentuzumab with enzalutamide in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.
(SPRINGERNATURE, 2023-10-05)BACKGROUND: This multicentre, open-label, Phase Ib/II trial evaluated the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) 1/2 neutralising antibody xentuzumab plus enzalutamide in metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). ... -
Accelerating 4D image reconstruction for magnetic resonance-guided radiotherapy.
(ELSEVIER, 2023-07-01)BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Physiological motion impacts the dose delivered to tumours and vital organs in external beam radiotherapy and particularly in particle therapy. The excellent soft-tissue demarcation of 4D magnetic ... -
Updates on radiotherapy-immunotherapy combinations: Proceedings of 6th annual ImmunoRad conference.
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2023-12-31)Focal radiation therapy (RT) has attracted considerable attention as a combinatorial partner for immunotherapy (IT), largely reflecting a well-defined, predictable safety profile and at least some potential for immunostimulation. ... -
Enhancing anti-tumour innate immunity by targeting the DNA damage response and pattern recognition receptors in combination with radiotherapy
(Frontiers Media SA, 2022-08-29)<jats:p>Radiotherapy is one of the most effective and frequently used treatments for a wide range of cancers. In addition to its direct anti-cancer cytotoxic effects, ionising radiation can augment the anti-tumour immune ... -
