In patients with metastatic melanoma, the identification and validation of accurate prognostic biomarkers will assist rational treatment planning. Studies based on "-omics" technologies have focussed on a single high-throughput data type such as gene or microRNA transcripts. Occasionally, ...
Prediction of outcome for melanoma patients with surgically-resected macroscopic nodal metastases is very imprecise. We performed a comprehensive clinicopathologic assessment of fresh-frozen macroscopic nodal metastases and the preceding primary melanoma, somatic mutation profiling and gene expressi...
Purpose: Deregulated phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase pathway signaling through AGC kinases including AKT, p70S6 kinase, PKA, SGK and Rho kinase, is a key driver of multiple cancers. The simultaneous inhibition of multiple AGC kinases may increase antitumor activity and minimize clinical resistance com...
Illumina platform sequencing of whole genome libraries prepared from paired tumour/normal samples from 87 cases of melanoma Acral subtype. 63 cases also have RNASeq sequencing from the tumour sample.
Illumina platform sequencing data for matched tumour-normal DNA samples from 77 melanoma patients participating in a study investigating response to immunotherapy. Selected cases also have RNA sequencing of the tumour.
