Targeting collagen XVIII improves the efficiency of ErbB inhibitors in breast cancer models
The tumor extracellular matrix (ECM) critically regulates cancer progression and treatment response. Expression of the basement membrane component collagen XVIII (ColXVIII) is induced in solid tumors, but its involvement in tumorigenesis has remained ...

Covalent drug discovery: Progress against key targets, emerging strategies and lessons learnt
Abstract Covalent drug discovery is currently experiencing a boom in industrial and academic interest. To date, at least 75 covalent drugs have received regulatory approval, targeting both traditional target classes and more challenging proteins for which other approaches failed. In many cases, unique aspects of covalent targeting are essential for the

The characterization, management, and future considerations for ErbB-family TKI-associated diarrhea. [PDF]
PurposeDiarrhea is recognized as a common adverse event associated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), with those targeting the ErbB family of receptors being associated with the highest rate of diarrhea.MethodsThis paper reviews data on the ...

HER2 testing in breast cancer: Opportunities and challenges [PDF]
Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is overexpressed in 15-25% of breast cancers, usually as a result of HER2 gene amplification. Positive HER2 status is considered to be an adverse prognostic factor. Recognition of the role of HER2 in breast

Cardiotoxicity of BRAF/MEK inhibitors
Abstract Rapidly accelerated fibrosarcoma type B/B‐Raf proto‐oncogene, serine/threonine kinase (BRAF) and mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MEK) inhibitors have transformed outcomes in cancer therapy, particularly in melanoma. However, cardiovascular toxicities are increasingly recognized in real‐world clinical practice.

Targeting tumour re-wiring by triple blockade of mTORC1, epidermal growth factor, and oestrogen receptor signalling pathways in endocrine-resistant breast cancer [PDF]
Background Endocrine therapies are the mainstay of treatment for oestrogen receptor (ER)-positive (ER+) breast cancer (BC). However, resistance remains problematic largely due to enhanced cross-talk between ER and growth factor pathways, circumventing ...

Amplification and overexpression of the EGF receptor and c-erbB-2 proto-oncogenes in human stomach cancer [PDF]
We set out to determine the frequency of EGF receptor and c-erbB-2 gene amplification and rearrangement by Southern blotting, and to survey the expression of each of these proto-oncogenes by immunohistochemistry in a parallel series of frozen and routinely-fixed paraffin-embedded gastric cancer ...
