Oncology: a branch of medicine that deals with the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer. A medical professional who practices oncology is an oncologist. It includes medical oncology (the use of chemotherapy, hormone therapy, and other drugs to treat cancer), radiation oncology (the use of radiation therapy to treat cancer), and surgical oncology (the use of surgery and other procedures to treat cancer).
Background: CDK4/6 inhibitors increase tumor immunogenicity in preclinical models of breast cancer and several trials combining CDK4/6 inhibitors and anti-PD1/PDL1 therapies are underway. Ho...
Metastatic prostate cancer (mPC) is a phenotypically diverse disease with poor responses to immune based therapeutics. Development of immunotherapeutic strategies for mPC is hampered by the...
The spread of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS CoV2), changed the daily life of medical oncologists. To keep safe both patients and healthy workers is the most important...
While many technologies focus on either exploring the spatial context of a handful of targets, or expression patterns of hundreds or thousands of targets in bulk samples or dissociated singl...
Targeted therapies for cancer are increasingly being developed as an alternative for, and in addition to, immunotherapy. Altered tumor signaling can be exploited to single-out cancer cells f...
The RNAscope in situ hybridization technology allows high sensitivity, specificity and spatial resolution providing pivotal single-cell gene expression information to gain better insights in...
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) have shown durable and long-term benefits in a subset of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients. To identify patient-responders from non-re...
The majority of patients with advanced NSCLC do not respond to monotherapy with PD-1 axis inhibition, and more robust predictive biomarkers are needed. In this study, we assessed tumor sampl...
We applied CITE-Seq to measure >150 cell surface immune markers and checkpoint proteins simultaneous to RNA-Sequencing. We resolve the tumour-immune milieu with high precision and reveal...
B-cell lymphomas and leukemias originate from the malignant transformation and proliferation of one or a small number of B cells. Since each B-cell expresses distinct B-cell receptors (BCRs)...
