(MCRC Clinical) From niche to clone: linking stromal–immune ecosystems to metastatic evolution in penile cancer

The University of Manchester
Division of Cancer Sciences
Penile squamous cell carcinoma is a rare cancer in which spread to the lymph nodes is the major determinant of survival. Yet we still cannot reliably identify which primary tumours will metastasise, meaning many patients undergo invasive nodal staging without metastatic disease being found. Read more

(MCRC Clinical)Shaping early post-transplant inflammation to strengthen graft-versus- leukaemia

The University of Manchester
Division of Cancer Sciences
Allogeneic stem cell transplantation is the only cure for most patients with high-risk acute myeloid leukaemia. It works because donor immune cells recognise and destroy residual leukaemia, an effect known as graft-versus-leukaemia (GvL). Read more

(MCRC Clinical) Finding the Achilles' Heel of Drug-Resistant Breast Cancer: Exploiting Synthetic Lethal Vulnerabilities in Transcription Factor Signalling

The University of Manchester
Division of Molecular and Cellular Function
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. Every year in the UK, around 55,000 patients are diagnosed with breast cancer, and only 23% of them have preventable disease. Read more

(MCRC Clinical) An integrated digital pathology and functional tissue study of risk stratification in penile squamous cell carcinoma

The University of Manchester
Division of Cancer Sciences
Penile squamous cell carcinoma (PSCC) is a rare malignancy in which surgery is the main treatment modality. However, patients suffer substantial physical, psychological and sexual morbidity. Read more

(MCRC Clinical) Sustaining adoptive T cell immunity: defining the role of activated dendritic cells in solid tumours

The University of Manchester
Division of Cancer Sciences
Adoptive cellular therapies, in which tumour-reactive T cells are expanded or engineered before being transferred into patients, have transformed the treatment of some blood cancers and are showing increasing promise in solid tumours. Read more

(MCRC Clinical) Tissue mechanics as regulator of therapy resistance in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC)

The University of Manchester
Division of Cancer Sciences
Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma is a treatment recalcitrant tumour, driven by activation of the proto-oncogene KRAS. Recent development and clinical testing of KRAS inhibitors has demonstrated clinical benefits in second-line pre-treated patients, however development of resistance and disease progression is inevitable.
