Mashup Score: 1
Introduction: More than 150,000 women die worldwide every year of Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC). There are a range of treatment options, but no good way to match patients to their optimal treatment. For most newly diagnosed patients with early TNBC, the current standard of care is neoadjuvant chemo/immunotherapy before surgery, with patients who achieve a pathological complete response (pCR) having a better prognosis. We have developed a Functional Precision Medicine (FPM) test that uses a fresh biopsy, dissociates the cells, embeds them in a 3D hydrogel matrix, cultures them in a microfluidics device and tests them against a range of systemic therapies, while using a computer vision pipeline to measure responses to therapies ex vivo. Methods: We designed and conducted an observational multi-centre clinical trial to assess the feasibility of using our FPM assay in patients with newly diagnosed TNBC undergoing neoadjuvant therapy. Patients underwent an additional core needle biop

Mashup Score: 3UK Optune Support Group | Computational Oncology Laboratory - 3 month(s) ago
Optune (Tumour-Treating Fields) are a new anti-cancer modality, with evidence to support their use in brain and lung cancer patients. However, because it is a new treatment, there are a lot of mis-conceptions and barriers to using Optune. To address this, we host the UK Optune support group to help provide peer support and guidance for all Optune users in the UK. This includes patients accessing Optune through a trial, or as part of routine care, and irrespective of which part of the body they are having
