A Novel Aptamer LL4A Specifically Targets Vemurafenib-Resistant Melanoma through Binding to the CD63 Protein. [PDF]

, 2019
Melanoma is a highly aggressive tumor with a poor prognosis, and half of all melanoma patients harbor BRAF mutations. A BRAF inhibitor, vemurafenib (PLX4032), has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European Medicines Agency ...

Recent advances in malignant melanoma [PDF]

Internal Medicine Journal, 2017
AbstractIn Australia, there is a high incidence of melanoma, and until recently, the treatment and median overall survival for advanced metastatic melanoma had not changed in decades. The recognition of BRAF as an important tumour oncogene in melanoma has led to the development of targeted therapies, and in the last few years, we have seen the impact ...

Emerging role of ARHGAP29 in melanoma cell phenotype switching

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study gives first insights into the role of ARHGAP29 in malignant melanoma. ARHGAP29 was revealed to be connected to tumor cell plasticity, promoting a mesenchymal‐like, invasive phenotype and driving tumor progression. Further, it modulates cell spreading by influencing RhoA/ROCK signaling and affects SMAD2 activity. Rho GTPase‐activating protein

Combination therapies in advanced melanoma [PDF]

Melanoma Management, 2014
Until recently, melanoma represented a significant clinical challenge to oncologists. However, the approval in 2011 of ipilimumab, an anti-CTLA4 monoclonal antibody, and vemurafenib, a BRAF inhibitor, completely changed melanoma management, with both drugs being shown to improve overall survival. The advent of these two drugs, together with the ongoing

Gut microbiota diversity is prognostic in metastatic hormone receptor‐positive breast cancer patients receiving chemotherapy and immunotherapy

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In this exploratory study, we investigated the relationship between the gut microbiota and outcome in patients with metastatic hormone receptor‐positive breast cancer, treated in a randomized clinical trial with chemotherapy alone or chemotherapy in combination with immune checkpoint blockade.

Exploiting the neoantigen landscape for immunotherapy of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma [PDF]

, 2016
Immunotherapy approaches for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) have met with limited success. It has been postulated that a low mutation load may lead to a paucity of T cells within the tumor microenvironment (TME).
