Background People with cancer are at increased risk of hospitalisation and death following infection with SARS-CoV-2.Therefore, we aimed to conduct one of the first evaluations of vaccine effectiveness against breakthroughSARS-CoV-2 infections in pat

Objective: Single prolonged breath-holds of >5 min can be obtained in cancer patients. Currently, however, the preparation time in each radiotherapy session is a practical limitation for clinical adoption of this new technique. Here, we show by how m

A subset of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) respond well to epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR TKIs), due to the presence of sensitising mutations in the gene encoding EGFR. Mutations associated with re
