© 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...

Treatment strategies and survival outcomes in older women with breast cancer: a comparative study between the FOCUS cohort and Nottingham cohort (2018)
Journal Article
Schuil, H., Derks, M., Liefers, G., Portielje, J., van de Velde, C., Syed, B., …Bastiaannet, E. (in press). Treatment strategies and survival outcomes in older women with breast cancer: a comparative study between the FOCUS cohort and Nottingham cohort. Journal of Geriatric Oncology, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jgo.2018.05.004

Objective: Clinical trials investigating breast cancer treatment often exclude or misrepresent older adults. This study compares treatment patterns and survival of older women diagnosed with breast cancer between a Dutch and a British observational c...

Prognostic significance of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes in ductal carcinoma in situ of the breast (2018)
Journal Article
Toss, M. S., Miligy, I., Al-Kawaz, A., Alsleem, M., Khout, H., Rida, P. C., …Rakha, E. (in press). Prognostic significance of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes in ductal carcinoma in situ of the breast. Modern Pathology, https://doi.org/10.1038/s41379-018-0040-8

Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) provide prognostic value in invasive breast cancer and guidelines for their assessment have been published. This study aims to evaluate: (a) methods of TILs assessment, and (b) their prognostic significance in br...
