[PDF][PDF] The molecular taxonomy of primary prostate cancer

…, S Balu, CE Barbieri, T Bauer, CC Benz, A Bergeron… - Cell, 2015 - cell.com
There is substantial heterogeneity among primary prostate cancers, evident in the spectrum
of molecular abnormalities and its variable clinical course. As part of The Cancer Genome …

Genomic hallmarks of localized, non-indolent prostate cancer

…, MA Chan-Seng-Yue, E Jung, Z Wang, A Bergeron… - Nature, 2017 - nature.com
Prostate tumours are highly variable in their response to therapies, but clinically available
prognostic factors can explain only a fraction of this heterogeneity. Here we analysed 200 …

[PDF][PDF] Widespread and functional RNA circularization in localized prostate cancer

…, J Li, M Orain, V Picard, H Hovington, A Bergeron… - Cell, 2019 - cell.com
The cancer transcriptome is remarkably complex, including low-abundance transcripts, many
not polyadenylated. To fully characterize the transcriptome of localized prostate cancer, we …

A prostate cancer “nimbosus”: genomic instability and SChLAP1 dysregulation underpin aggression of intraductal and cribriform subpathologies

…, J Zhang, M Orain, V Picard, H Hovington, A Bergeron… - European urology, 2017 - Elsevier
Background Intraductal carcinoma (IDC) and cribriform architecture (CA) represent unfavorable
subpathologies in localized prostate cancer. We recently showed that IDC shares a …

Bladder tumor infiltrating mature dendritic cells and macrophages as predictors of response to bacillus Calmette-Guerin immunotherapy

…, H Hovington, M Decobert, F Harel, A Bergeron… - European urology, 2009 - Elsevier
BACKGROUND: The clinical significance of tumor-infiltrating dendritic cells (TIDCs) and

High frequency of MAGE‐A4 and MAGE‐A9 expression in high‐risk bladder cancer

A Bergeron, V Picard, H LaRue, F Harel… - … Journal of Cancer, 2009 - Wiley Online Library
Cancer‐testis (CT) genes encode proteins that are ideal targets for cancer immunotherapy
because of their restricted expression in normal tissues and frequent expression in cancers. …

Toll-like receptors in urothelial cells—targets for cancer immunotherapy

H LaRue, C Ayari, A Bergeron, Y Fradet - Nature Reviews Urology, 2013 - nature.com
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) have an important role in the activation of both innate and adaptive
immunity in response to pathogens and danger signals. These receptors are expressed in …

Tn-MUC1 DC vaccination of rhesus macaques and a phase I/II trial in patients with nonmetastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer

E Scheid, P Major, A Bergeron, OJ Finn… - Cancer immunology …, 2016 - AACR
