Metastasis on pause: How dormant tumor cells stay hidden within the tumor microenvironment and evade immune surveillance

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dormant cancer cells can hide in distant organs for years, evading treatment and the immune system. This review highlights how signals from the surrounding tissue and immune environment keep these cells inactive or trigger their reawakening. Understanding these mechanisms may help develop therapies to eliminate or control dormant cells and prevent ...

Combination therapies in advanced melanoma [PDF]

open access: yesMelanoma 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

Liquid biopsy‐based diagnostic evaluation of hypermethylated CpG sites for ovarian cancer diagnosis

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This schematic outlines the workflow from biomarker identification to duplex MethyLight assay validation for epithelial ovarian cancer diagnosis using cfDNA‐based liquid biopsy. Initial screening of hypermethylated CpG candidates (cg02957270, cg10061138 cg00480298, COL2A1) was performed in tissue using ARMS‐PCR, COBRA, qPCR and image analysis. Selected

Disparities in melanoma Breslow thickness at diagnosis in north-east London

open access: yesClinical Medicine
Background: International studies have observed inequalities in the stage of diagnosis of melanoma.1–5 Given that this has not been sufficiently studied in the UK, the purpose of this study was to investigate whether there are age-related, gender and ...

Low Vitamin D Status Predicts Poor Clinical Outcome in Advanced Melanoma Treated With Immune Checkpoint or BRAF/MEK Inhibitors: A Prospective Non-Interventional Side-by-Side Analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
In melanoma and other malignancies, low vitamin D status is associated with increased risk and poor prognosis. However, there are limited data of the impact of 25(OH)D serum concentration (s.c.) on clinical outcome in advanced melanoma.

Epigenetic heterogeneity and plasticity in therapy‐induced tumor states through single‐cell multi‐omics

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Single‐cell multi‐omics reveals epigenetic heterogeneity across therapy‐adaptive tumor states, including quiescent/dormant, drug‐tolerant persister, and EMT‐like phenotypes. By linking regulatory features with state‐associated biomarkers, these approaches inform biomarker‐guided therapeutic strategies for evolving tumors.

Therapeutic Advancements Across Clinical Stages in Melanoma, With a Focus on Targeted Immunotherapy

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2021
Melanoma is the most fatal skin cancer. In the early stages, it can be safely treated with surgery alone. However, since 2011, there has been an important revolution in the treatment of melanoma with new effective treatments.

Recent advances in malignant melanoma [PDF]

open access: yesInternal 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 ...

Updates in Therapy for Advanced Melanoma [PDF]

open access: yesCancers, 2016
Cutaneous melanoma is one of the most aggressive forms of skin cancer, and is correlated with a large proportion of skin cancer-related deaths. Therapy for cutaneous melanoma has advanced greatly through careful identification of therapeutic targets and the development of novel immunotherapeutic approaches.
