Hematological malignancies in pregnancy (2017)
Book Chapter
Allsup, D., Ali, S., & Robinson, S. (2017). Hematological malignancies in pregnancy. In D. James, P. Steer, C. Weiner, B. Gonik, & S. Robson (Eds.), High-Risk Pregnancy: Management Options (1006-1043). Cambridge University Press

The diagnosis of a hematological malignancy during pregnancy poses a major challenge to the pregnant woman, her family, and the medical team. Treatment of a pregnant woman with chemotherapy poses a risk to the fetus and raises therapeutic, ethical, a... Read More about Hematological malignancies in pregnancy.

The use of ofatumumab in the treatment of B-cell malignancies (2017)
Journal Article
Soe, Z. N., & Allsup, D. (2017). The use of ofatumumab in the treatment of B-cell malignancies. Future oncology, 13(29), 2611-2628. https://doi.org/10.2217/fon-2017-0275

Ofatumumab has been extensively studied in the treatment of B-cell malignancies. Currently, it has been approved for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia in a number of different situations. However, there is still no compelling evidence con... Read More about The use of ofatumumab in the treatment of B-cell malignancies.

Background
Treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) has seen a substantial improvement over the last few years. Combination immunochemotherapy, such as fludarabine, cyclophosphamide and rituximab (FCR), is now standard first-line therapy. How...

Cancer bioimprinting and cell shape recognition for diagnosis and targeted treatment (2017)
Journal Article
Medlock, J., Das, A. A. K., Madden, L. A., Allsup, D. J., & Paunov, V. N. (2017). Cancer bioimprinting and cell shape recognition for diagnosis and targeted treatment. Chemical Society Reviews, 46(16), 5110-5127. https://doi.org/10.1039/c7cs00179g

Cancer incidence and mortality have both increased in the last decade and are predicted to continue to rise. Diagnosis and treatment of cancers are often hampered by the inability to specifically target neoplastic cells. Bioimprinting is a promising...
