Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia is a risk factor for venous thromboembolism (2010)
Journal Article
Whittle, A. M., Allsup, D. J., & Bailey, J. R. (2011). Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia is a risk factor for venous thromboembolism. Leukemia Research, 35(3), 419-421. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.leukres.2010.11.011

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in cancer patients. The literature is sparse on the incidence in the most common lymphoid malignancy, chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL). We calculated the incidence rates for...

Thalidomide enhances cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone-mediated cytotoxicity towards cultured chronic lymphocytic leukaemia cells (2010)
Journal Article
Pointon, J. C., Eagle, G., Bailey, J., Evans, P., Allsup, D., & Greenman, J. (2010). Thalidomide enhances cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone-mediated cytotoxicity towards cultured chronic lymphocytic leukaemia cells. Oncology Reports, 24(5), 1315-1321. https://doi.org/10.3892/or_00000988

Numerous chemotherapeutic regimens exist for the treatment of symptomatic or progressive chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL). However, once the disease becomes refractory to nucleoside-based therapy the prognosis is poor. In this study we investigate...

To identify new risk variants for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), we conducted a genome-wide association study of 299,983 tagging SNPs, with validation in four additional series totaling 2,503 cases and 5,789 controls. We identified four new risk... Read More about Common variants at 2q37.3, 8q24.21, 15q21.3 and 16q24.1 influence chronic lymphocytic leukemia risk.
