• Baseline microvessel density predicts response to neoadjuvant bevacizumab treatment of locally advanced breast cancer 

      Krüger, Kristi; Silwal-Pandit, Laxmi; Wik, Elisabeth; Straume, Oddbjørn; Stefansson, Ingunn Marie; Borgen, Elin; Garred, Øystein; Naume, Bjørn; Engebråten, Olav; Akslen, Lars Andreas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      A subset of breast cancer patients benefits from preoperative bevacizumab and chemotherapy, but validated predictive biomarkers are lacking. Here, we aimed to evaluate tissue-based angiogenesis markers for potential ...
    • Breast cancer stromal elastosis is associated with mammography screening detection, low Ki67 expression and favourable prognosis in a population-based study 

      Chen, Ying; Klingen, Tor Audun; Wik, Elisabeth; Aas, Hans; Vigeland, Einar; Liestøl, Knut; Garred, Øystein; Mæhlen, Jan; Akslen, Lars A.; Lømo, Jon (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-12-19)
      Background: Mammography screen-detected breast cancers have a better prognosis than predicted from established prognostic markers. A search for additional features that are characteristic for these tumours and their prognosis ...
    • An independent poor-prognosis subtype of breast cancer defined by a distinct tumor immune microenvironment 

      Tekpli, Xavier; Lien, Tonje Gulbrandsen; Røssevold, Andreas Hagen; Nebdal, Daniel J.H.; Borgen, Elin; Ohnstad, Hege Oma; Kyte, Jon A; Vallon-Christersson, Johan; Fongaard, Marie; Due, Eldri Undlien; Svartdal, Lisa Gregusson; Sveli, My Anh Tu; Garred, Øystein; Frigessi Di Rattalma, Arnoldo; Sahlberg, Kristine Kleivi; Sørlie, Therese; Russnes, Hege Elisabeth Giercksky; Naume, Bjørn; Kristensen, Vessela N. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      How mixtures of immune cells associate with cancer cell phenotype and affect pathogenesis is still unclear. In 15 breast cancer gene expression datasets, we invariably identify three clusters of patients with gradual levels ...
    • Retrospective evaluation of whole exome and genome mutation calls in 746 cancer samples

      The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) curated consensus somatic mutation calls using whole exome sequencing (WES) and whole genome sequencing (WGS), respectively. Here, as part ...
    • Sex differences in oncogenic mutational processes 

      Li, Constance H.; Prokopec, Stephenie D.; Sun, Ren X.; Yousif, Fouad; Schmitz, Nathaniel; Boutros, Paul C.; Aure, Miriam Ragle; Børresen-Dale, Anne-Lise; Langerød, Anita; Wright, Derek W.; Baumhoer, Daniel; Bjerkehagen, Bodil; Garred, Øystein; Lingjærde, Ole Christian; Sauer, Torill; Zaikova, Olga; Myklebost, Ola; Knappskog, Stian; Vazquez, Miguel; Van Loo, Peter (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      Sex differences have been observed in multiple facets of cancer epidemiology, treatment and biology, and in most cancers outside the sex organs. Efforts to link these clinical differences to specific molecular features ...
