The Journal of Clinical Investigation is a century-old physician-scientist journal, free to read, publishing mechanistic disease biology including tumour immunology, metabolism and early CAR-T science.
Monthly and fully free to read, published by the non-profit American Society for Clinical Investigation. Publishes translational studies across medicine with a strong cancer immunology and haematology component, including early CAR-T and tumour-microenvironment work. JCI Insight is its open-access sister.
This is the paper Europe PMC returns for registry id NCT02576431 with the most citations, so it is the natural first reading for anyone following the NAVIGATE trial. Read the abstract above alongside the trial page and the registry entry; the record was linked automatically and its figures have not been checked by hand.
It splits the alterations into two groups with different practical meanings. The repair defects are present at diagnosis at close to their castration-resistant prevalence, so testing early is worthwhile; AR, TP53 and RB1 changes accumulate later, so a diagnostic sample does not answer questions about the disease in front of you at relapse.
It gives the field a vocabulary for the states between androgen receptor-driven adenocarcinoma and small cell carcinoma, which matters because those in-between tumours are the ones most likely to be mismanaged as ordinary castration-resistant disease.
It explains why a PD-L1 score alone predicts imperfectly: PD-L1 on stromal cells with excluded T cells is a poor-outcome pattern, and B7-H4 marks the cold tumours now being targeted by antibody-drug conjugates.
One technology page on OnCo cites this paper by its DOI; this record gives the citation a page of its own so a reader can follow it without leaving OnCo. Read the abstract above alongside the citing page listed under Related; the record was created automatically from the Europe PMC entry and its figures have not been checked by hand.
One of the most cited trial reports Europe PMC returns for CD19 in Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, so it is a natural first reading for anyone weighing the idea it is linked from. The record was linked automatically by title and abstract; read the abstract above and the paper itself before relying on any figure.
One pathway page on OnCo cites this paper by its DOI; this record gives the citation a page of its own so a reader can follow it without leaving OnCo. Read the abstract above alongside the citing page listed under Related; the record was created automatically from the Europe PMC entry and its figures have not been checked by hand.
The vocabulary used on the triple-negative page (basal-like 1 and 2, mesenchymal, luminal androgen receptor, immunomodulatory) comes from this paper; it made triple-negative breast cancer several diseases with several possible drugs rather than one disease with none.
EMT is the most cited explanation for how carcinomas invade and spread and for part of their drug resistance. This primer is the entry point for the field, and its framework informs current work on partial EMT states, circulating tumour cells and therapies aimed at the transition.
