Abstract
I-SPY 2 (investigation of serial studies to predict your therapeutic response with imaging and molecular analysis 2) is a process targeting the rapid, focused clinical development of paired oncologic therapies and biomarkers. The framework is an adaptive phase II clinical trial design in the neoadjuvant setting for women with locally advanced breast cancer. I-SPY 2 is a collaborative effort among academic investigators, the National Cancer Institute, the US Food and Drug Administration, and the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries under the auspices of the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health Biomarkers Consortium.

Tumour heterogeneity in the clinic

TL;DR: A large number of cancer cells with unique genomes in the same patient may exist across different geographical regions of a tumour or evolve over time, called intratumour heterogeneity, and Sequencing technologies can be used to characterize intratumours heterogeneity at diagnosis, monitor clonal dynamics during treatment and identify the emergence of clinical resistance during disease progression.

Toil enables reproducible, open source, big biomedical data analyses

TL;DR: It is envisage that in future individual research laboratories, or clusters of colocated laboratories, will have in-house, low-cost automation work cells but will access DNA foundries via the cloud to carry out complex experimental workflows and accelerate the development and sharing of standardized protocols and metrology standards.

Adaptive Randomization of Veliparib–Carboplatin Treatment in Breast Cancer

TL;DR: The process used in the I-SPY 2 trial showed that veliparib-carboplatin added to standard therapy resulted in higher rates of pathological complete response than standard therapy alone specifically in triple-negative breast cancer.

The price of innovation: new estimates of drug development costs

TL;DR: The research and development costs of 68 randomly selected new drugs were obtained from a survey of 10 pharmaceutical firms and used to estimate the average pre-tax cost of new drug development.

Bayesian clinical trials

TL;DR: The rationale underlying Bayesian clinical trials is explained, the potential of such trials to improve the effectiveness of drug development is discussed, and the potential for smaller more informative trials and for patients to receive better treatment is discussed.

Clinical application of the 70-gene profile: the MINDACT trial.

TL;DR: The 70-gene profile is a new prognostic tool that has the potential to greatly improve risk assessment and treatment decision making for early breast cancer and is currently ongoing through the MINDACT trial.

Locally Advanced Breast Cancer.

TL;DR: Multidisciplinary therapy that includes primary chemotherapy provides appropriate local control and the possibility of breast conservation therapy; it increases surgical resectability and survival rates in patients with locally advanced breast cancer.
