Excerpt

Tumors of the mammary gland belong to the most common tumors in the female dog. Ovarian hormones and signaling cascades involving them play an important role in mammary tumor formation and progression in the female dog, as early ovariectomy may reduce the incidence of mammary carcinoma from 30% to less than 2%. The phenotypic expression of canine mammary tumors may vary, even within one affected animal. In the past, growth factor-independent canine mammary cell lines have been isolated [1]. Molecular characterization of these cell lines and correlation of their molecular signatures to biological behavior may lead to better understanding of signaling pathways involved in mammary cancer and classification of spontaneous mammary tumors. …

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on antibody–drug conjugates in cancer

Antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) are novel agents that have shown promise across multiple tumor types. Explore the current landscape of ADCs in breast and lung cancer with our experts, and gain insights into the mechanism of action, key clinical trials data, existing challenges, and future directions.
