A fatty-acid based probe for near-infrared fluorescence guided surgery of glioblastoma

High-grade gliomas (HGG) are the most common and most aggressive primary tumors of the brain. Despite recent advances in neuro-oncology survival of these tumors remains around 12-15 months. The first-line of treatment is surgical resection. However, due to ...

Trametinib Induces the Stabilization of a Dual GNAQ p.Gly48Leu-and FGFR4 p.Cys172Gly-Mutated Uveal Melanoma. The Role of Molecular Modelling in Personalized Oncology

Olivier Michielin, Krisztian Homicsko, Alexandre Wicky

We report a case of an uveal melanoma patient with GNAQ p.Gly48Leu who responded to MEK inhibition. At the time of the molecular analysis, the pathogenicity of the mutation was unknown. A tridimensional structural analysis showed that G alpha(q) can adopt ...

A Compact Laser-Steering End-Effector for Transoral Robotic Surgery

Laryngeal cancer treatments, while curative, often lead to voice impairment. Minimally invasive surgical methods that facilitate greater preservation of healthy tissue have recently emerged, but they are still limited in important ways. In this work, we de ...

Carboplatin/paclitaxel, E7-vaccination and intravaginal CpG as tri-therapy towards efficient regression of genital HPV16 tumors

Douglas Hanahan, Gabriele Galliverti

High-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) are responsible for genital and oral cancers associated with the expression of the E6/E7 HPV oncogenes. Therapeutic vaccines targeting those oncogenes can only partially control tumor progression, highlighting the neces ...

Anti-angiogenic immunotherapy for lung cancer

Ece Kadioglu

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-associated deaths worldwide. Platinum-based chemotherapy is the most common therapeutic approach in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), particularly for tumors that carry non-druggable activating mutation ...

Engineering cancer vaccines using stimuli-responsive biomaterials

Li Tang, Yugang Guo, Yu Zhao

Cancer vaccines aimed at expanding the pool or increasing the activity of tumor-specific T cells against malignancies is an important immunotherapy modality that has been extensively pursued in the past decades. However, the clinical efficacy of cancer vac ...

MedCo: Enabling Privacy-Conscious Exploration of Distributed Clinical and Genomic Data

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Jean Louis Raisaro, Bryan Alexander Ford, Olivier Michielin, Juan Ramón Troncoso-Pastoriza, Joao André Gomes de Sá e Sousa, Mickaël Misbach

Being able to share large amounts of sensitive clinical and genomic data across several institutions is crucial for precision medicine to scale up. Unfor- tunately, existing solutions only partially address this challenge and are still unable to provide th ...

Time-resolved imaging system for fluorescence-guided surgery with lifetime imaging capability

Edoardo Charbon, Claudio Bruschini, Douglas Hanahan, François Eric Powolny, Harald Arjan Robert Homulle, Krisztian Homicsko, Riccardo Sinisi

We present a single-photon camera for fluorescence imaging, with a time resolution better than 100ps, capable of providing both intensity and lifetime images. the camera was fabricated in standard CMOS technology. With this FluoCam we show the possibility ...

Targeting and Modulating Tumor-Associated Sites with Novel Nanoparticle-Based Immunotherapies

Laura Jeanbart

Cancer is a global disease and a leading cause of death worldwide. While surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy comprise the classical tools to eradicate tumors, they do not cure cancer, cannot prevent metastases, lead to side effects, and most importantly ...

A Handheld beta(+) Probe for Intra-Operative Detection of Radiotracers

Edoardo Charbon, Claudio Bruschini, Christian Mester

A handheld probe for direct positron detection based on scintillators coupled to silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) is presented in this paper. The battery-powered system is optimised for intra-operative use. It is fully sterilisable and wirelessly connected ...

Accelerators for hadrontherapy: From Lawrence cyclotrons to linacs

Adriano Garonna, Alberto Degiovanni

Hadrontherapy with protons and carbon ions is a fast developing methodology in radiation oncology. The accelerators used and planned for this purpose are reviewed starting from the cyclotrons used in the thirties. As discussed in the first part of this pap ...

Autofluorescence detection of tumors in the human lung - spectroscopical measurements in situ, in an in vivo model and in vitro

Georges Wagnières, Tanja Gabrecht

To detect bronchial carcinoma by autofluorescence, we measured the spectra of tumor and normal tissue in situ, in an in vivo model and in vitro by fiber optic spectrometer and two-dimensional resolved microspectroscopy. The in situ measurements were perfor ...

Photodetection and photodynamic therapy of "early" squamous cell carcinomas of the pharynx, oesophagus and tracheo-bronchial tree

Hubert van den Bergh, Christian Depeursinge, Georges Wagnières, André Châtelain

The efficacy of photodynamic therapy (PDT) alone was evaluated on 41 ‘early’ squamous cell carcinomas of the pharynx (10), oesophagus (15) and tracheo-bronchial tree (16). All lesions but two were synchronous second primaries in ENT-patients suffering from ...
