Pneumatic retinopexy: patient selection and specific factors

Clinical Ophthalmology, 2018
Pneumatic retinopexy is a minimally invasive, non-incisional procedure for repairing retinal detachment. This procedure is associated with reduced morbidity, reduced cost and faster postoperative recovery compared to pars plana vitrectomy and scleral ...

Clinical applications of next‐generation sequencing‐based ctDNA analyses in breast cancer: defining treatment targets and dynamic changes during disease progression

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) offers a possibility for different applications in early and late stage breast cancer management. In early breast cancer tumor informed approaches are increasingly used for detecting molecular residual disease (MRD) and early recurrence. In advanced stage, ctDNA provides a possibility for monitoring disease progression and

Circulating tumor cells in metastatic breast cancer patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors – a biomarker analysis of the ALICE and ICON trials

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In this explorative biomarker analysis, we assessed serial sampling of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) with CellSearch in two randomized trials testing immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in metastatic breast cancer. Our data demonstrate a prognostic potential of CTCs, most apparent 4 weeks into ICI therapy.

Do all patients that undergo a ‘complete’ secondary cytoreductive surgery for platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer, benefit from it?

Pleura and Peritoneum
– Selection criteria used in all three randomized trials are predictive of a complete cytoreduction and not the benefit of surgery– Post-hoc & prespecified subgroup analyses indicate that not all patients undergoing secondary cytoreduction benefit from ...

Circulating tumor cells: advancing personalized therapy in small cell lung cancer patients

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive form of lung cancer that spreads rapidly to secondary sites such as the brain and liver. Cancer cells circulating in the blood, “circulating tumor cells” (CTCs), have demonstrated prognostic value in SCLC, and evaluating biomarkers on CTCs could guide treatment decisions such as for PARP inhibitors ...

Integrate Multi-omic Data Using Affinity Network Fusion (ANF) for Cancer Patient Clustering [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
Clustering cancer patients into subgroups and identifying cancer subtypes is an important task in cancer genomics. Clustering based on comprehensive multi-omic molecular profiling can often achieve better results than those using a single data type, since each omic data type (representing one view of patients) may contain complementary information ...
