Journal ArticleDOI

Gains of chromosome 8 are confined to mesenchymal components in pleuropulmonary blastoma.

TL;DR: It is indicated that clonal proliferation in pleuropulmonary blastoma is restricted to the malignant mesenchymal elements, supporting the notion that the epithelial components of this tumor are non-neoplastic.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of Bcl-2 family members sensitizes mesenchymal chondrosarcoma to conventional chemotherapy: report on a novel mesenchymal chondrosarcoma cell line.

TL;DR: Combination treatments demonstrated ABT-737 synergism with cisplatin as well as doxorubicin as shown by induction of apoptosis and reduction in cell proliferation, indicating that combining the inhibition of Bcl-2 family members with conventional chemotherapy can be a possible therapeutic strategy for patients with mesenchymal chondrosarcoma.
Journal ArticleDOI

Insulin receptor activation in solitary fibrous tumours.

TL;DR: Uniform activation of the insulin receptor (IR) pathway in SFTs, which are mesenchymal tumours frequently associated with hypoglycaemia, is reported and studies suggest that IR activation plays an oncogenic role in S FTs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phase I dose-escalation study of the SRC and multi-kinase inhibitor BMS-354825 in patients (pts) with GIST and other solid tumors

TL;DR: This is the first study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacologic profiles of BMS-354825 in pts with treatment-resistant GIST and other refractory solid tumors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Targeting SALL4 by entinostat in lung cancer.

TL;DR: It is reported for the first time that entinostat can target SALL4-positive lung cancer, and this lays the foundation for future clinical studies evaluating the therapeutic efficacy of ent inostat in Sall4- positive lung cancer patients.
