BRAF and MEK Inhibitors: Use and Resistance in BRAF-Mutated Cancers [PDF]
The mitogen activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-related kinase (MAPK/ERK) signaling pathway serves an integral role in growth, proliferation, differentiation, migration, and survival of all mammalian cells. Aberrant signaling of this pathway is often observed in several types of hematologic and solid malignancies.

Targeting human apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) in phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) deficient melanoma cells for personalized therapy [PDF]
Phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) loss is associated with genomic instability. APE1 is a key player in DNA base excision repair (BER) and an emerging drug target in cancer.

Inhibition of BRAF kinase suppresses cellular proliferation, but not enough for complete growth arrest in BRAF V600E mutated papillary and undifferentiated thyroid carcinomas [PDF]
The aim of our study was to inhibit BRAF kinase expression and investigate its effect on cellular functions in thyroid carcinomas. 8505C (BRAF V600E/V600E) undifferentiated thyroid carcinoma cell line and B-CPAP (BRAF V600E/V600E) papillary thyroid ...

BRAF inhibitors: From the laboratory to clinical trials [PDF]
BRAF is one of the most commonly mutated proto-oncogenes and plays a significant role in the development of numerous cancers of high clinical impact. Due to the commonality of BRAF mutations, a number of BRAF inhibitors have been developed as tools in ...

Combined BRAF and MEK Inhibition versus BRAF Inhibition Alone in Melanoma [PDF]
Combined BRAF and MEK inhibition, as compared with BRAF inhibition alone, delays the emergence of resistance and reduces toxic effects in patients who have melanoma with BRAF V600E or V600K mutations.In this phase 3 trial, we randomly assigned 423 previously untreated patients who had unresectable stage IIIC or stage IV melanoma with a BRAF V600E or ...

Re‐Irradiation in Pediatric Diffuse Midline Glioma: A Multi‐Institutional Retrospective Study
ABSTRACT Background Children with recurrent diffuse midline gliomas (DMGs) have limited therapeutic options at recurrence. Re‐irradiation (RT2) may be used at progression, but with uncertainty about the benefit. Methods We conducted a multi‐institutional retrospective study of children aged < 18 with DMG treated at three centers (Toronto, Canada ...

Proteogenomic characterization of cholangiocarcinoma
Proteogenomic characterization of cholangiocarcinoma with therapeutic strategies Abstract Background and Aims Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a highly heterogeneous cancer with limited understanding and few effective therapeutic approaches. We aimed at providing a proteogenomic CCA characterization to inform biological processes and treatment ...

Pharmacological targeted therapy of Braf mutant melanoma (Braf and MEK inhibitors) [PDF]
The Thesis is based upon the approach of Pharmacological targeted therapy of Braf mutant melanoma with both Braf and MEK inhibitors. The BRAF inhibitors, Vemurafenib (Zelboraf) and Dabrafenib (Tafinlar), targets the BRAF kinase directly resulting in the ...
