    • Aneuploidy related transcriptional changes in endometrial cancer link low expression of chromosome 15q genes to poor survival 

      Mauland, Karen Klepsland; Wik, Elisabeth; Høivik, Erling Andre; Kusonmano, Kanthida; Halle, Mari Kyllesø; Berg, Anna; Haugland, Hans Kristian; Øyan, Anne Margrete; Kalland, Karl-Henning; Stefansson, Ingunn Marie; Akslen, Lars A.; Krakstad, Camilla; Trovik, Jone; Werner, Henrica Maria Johanna; Salvesen, Helga Birgitte (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)
      Aneuploidy is a widely studied prognostic marker in endometrial cancer (EC), however, not implemented in clinical decision-making. It lacks validation in large prospective patient cohorts adjusted for currently standard ...

    • 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 ...

    • High BMI is significantly associated with positive progesterone receptor status and clinico-pathological markers for non-aggressive disease in endometrial cancer 

      Mauland, Karen Klepsland; Trovik, Jone; Wik, Elisabeth; Ræder, Maria B.; Njølstad, Tormund Salvesen; Stefansson, Ingunn Marie; Øyan, Anne Margrete; Kalland, Karl-Henning; Bjørge, Tone; Akslen, Lars A.; Salvesen, Helga Birgitte (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011)
      Background: Endometrial cancer incidence is increasing in industrialised countries. High body mass index (BMI, kg m−2) is associated with higher risk for disease. We wanted to investigate if BMI is related to clinico-pathological ...

    • Molecular and phenotypic characteristics influencing the degree of cytoreduction in high-grade serous ovarian carcinomas 

      Torkildsen, Cecilie Fredvik; Thomsen, Liv Cecilie Vestrheim; Sande, Ragnar; Krakstad, Camilla; Stefansson, Ingunn Marie; Lamark, Eva Karin; Knappskog, Stian; Bjørge, Line (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Background: High-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) is the deadliest ovarian cancer subtype, and survival relates to initial cytoreductive surgical treatment. The existing tools for surgical outcome prediction remain ...

    • MRI-assessed tumor-free distance to serosa predicts deep myometrial invasion and poor outcome in endometrial cancer 

      Dybvik, Julie Andrea; Fasmer, Kristine Eldevik; Ytre-Hauge, Sigmund; Husby, Jenny Hild Aase; Salvesen, Øyvind; Stefansson, Ingunn Marie; Krakstad, Camilla; Trovik, Jone; Haldorsen, Ingfrid S. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Objectives To explore the diagnostic accuracy of preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-derived tumor measurements for the prediction of histopathological deep (≥ 50%) myometrial invasion (pDMI) and prognostication ...

    • Patient-derived organoids reflect the genetic profile of endometrial tumors and predict patient prognosis 

      Berg, Hege Fredriksen; Hjelmeland, Marta Espevold; Lien, Hilde Eide; Espedal, Heidi; Fonnes, Tina; Srivastava, Aashish; Stokowy, Tomasz; Strand, Elin; Bozickovic, Olivera; Stefansson, Ingunn Marie; Bjørge, Line; Trovik, Jone; Haldorsen, Ingfrid S.; Høivik, Erling Andre; Krakstad, Camilla (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Background: A major hurdle in translational endometrial cancer (EC) research is the lack of robust preclinical models that capture both inter- and intra-tumor heterogeneity. This has hampered the development of new treatment ...
