Targeting PARP1 in XRCC1-deficient sporadic invasive breast cancer or preinvasive ductal carcinoma in situ induces synthetic lethality and chemoprevention (2018)
Journal Article

© 2018 American Association for Cancer Research. Targeting PARP1 for synthetic lethality is a new strategy for breast cancers harboring germline mutations in BRCA. However, these mutations are rare, and reactivation of BRCA-mediated pathways may resu...

The relationship of CDK18 expression in breast cancer to clinicopathological parameters and therapeutic response (2018)
Journal Article

Background: Cyclin-Dependent Kinases (CDKs) are established anti-cancer drug targets and a new generation of CDK inhibitors are providing clinical benefits to a sub-set of breast cancer patients. We have recently shown that human CDK18 promotes effic... Read More about The relationship of CDK18 expression in breast cancer to clinicopathological parameters and therapeutic response.

Circulating biomarkers during treatment in patients with advanced biliary tract cancer receiving cediranib in the UK ABC-03 trial (2018)
Journal Article

BACKGROUND: Advanced biliary tract cancer (ABC) has a poor prognosis. Cediranib, in addition to cisplatin/gemcitabine [CisGem], improved the response rate, but did not improve the progression-free survival (PFS) in the ABC-03 study. Minimally invasiv...

Targeting ataxia telangiectasia mutated and Rad3 related kinase (ATR) in PTEN deficient breast cancers for personalized therapy (2018)
Journal Article

Purpose: PTEN, a negative regulator of PI3K signaling, is involved in DNA repair. ATR is a key sensor of DNA damage and replication stress. We evaluated whether ATR signaling has clinical significance and could be targeted by synthetic lethality in P...
