TL;DR: The findings show that a genetic grade signature can improve prognosis and therapeutic planning for breast cancer patients, and support the view that low- and high-grade disease, as defined genetically, reflect independent pathobiological entities rather than a continuum of cancer progression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Venous Thrombosis in Cancer Patients: Insights from the FRONTLINE Survey
TL;DR: The results of the FRONTLINE survey demonstrate a need for guidelines to direct clinical prac- tice in line with evidence-based data concerning cancer and VTE.
Journal ArticleDOI

Michael Millward,Michael Boyer,Manfred Lehnert,Simon Clarke,Danny Rischin,Boon Cher Goh,John Wong,Edward McNeil,James F. Bishop +8 more
TL;DR: This regimen is active in advanced NSCLC and the potential impact of ethnicity on efficacy and toxicity of treatment requires further investigation.
Journal ArticleDOI
In Vivo and In Vitro Studies Suggest a Possible Involvement of HPV Infection in the Early Stage of Breast Carcinogenesis via APOBEC3B Induction
Kenji Ohba,Koji Ichiyama,Misako Yajima,Nobuhiro Gemma,Masaru Nikaido,Qingqing Wu,Pei Pei Chong,Seiichiro Mori,Rain Yamamoto,John Wong,Naoki Yamamoto +10 more
