- In this implementation phase of the European Cancer Patient's Bill of Rights (BoR), we confirm the following three patient-centred principles that underpin this initiative: 1. The right of every European citizen to receive the most accurate information and to be proactively involved in his/her care. 2. The right of every European citizen to optimal and timely access to a diagnosis and to appropriate specialised care, underpinned by research and innovation. 3. The right of every European citizen to receive care in health systems that ensure the best possible cancer prevention, the earliest possible diagnosis of their cancer, improved outcomes, patient rehabilitation, best quality of life and affordable health care. Agree our high-level goal. The vision of 70% longterm survival for patients with cancer in 2035, promoting cancer prevention and cancer control and the associated progress in ensuring good patient experience and quality of life. Establish the major mechanisms to underpin its delivery. (1) The systematic and rigorous sharing of best practice between and across European cancer healthcare systems and (2) the active promotion of Research and Innovation focused on improving outcomes; (3) Improving access to new and established cancer care by sharing best practice in the development, approval, procurement and reimbursement of cancer diagnostic tests and treatments. Work with other organisations to bring into being a Europe based centre that will (1) systematically identify, evaluate and validate and disseminate best practice in cancer management for the different countries and regions and (2) promote Research and Innovation and its translation to maximise its impact to improve outcomes.

- The impact of null mutations of the genes for the NGF family of neurotrophins and their receptors was examined among the wide variety of medium to large caliber myelinated mechanoreceptors which have a highly specific predictable organization in the mystacial pad of mice. Immunofluorescence with anti-protein gene product 9.5, anti-200-kDa neurofilament protein (RT97), and anti-calcitonin gene-related product was used to label innervation in mystacial pads from mice with homozygous null mutations for nerve growth factor (NGF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), neurotrophin-3 (NT-3), neurotrophin-4 (NT-4), the three tyrosine kinase receptors (trkA, trkB, trkC), and the low-affinity nerve growth factor receptor p75. Specimens were sacrificed at birth and at 1, 2, and 4 weeks for each type of mutation as well as at 11 weeks and 1 year for p75 and trkC mutations, respectively. Our results demonstrate several major concepts about the role of neurotrophins in the development of cutaneous mechanoreceptors that are supplied by medium to large caliber myelinated afferents. First, each of the high-affinity tyrosine kinase receptors, trkA, trkB, and trkC, as well as the low-affinity p75 receptor has an impact on at least one type of mechanoreceptor. Second, consistent with the various affinities for particular trk receptors, the elimination of NGF, BDNF, and NT-3 has an impact comparable to or more complex than the absence of their most specific high-affinity receptors: trkA, trkB, and trkC, respectively. These complexities include potential NT-3 signaling through trkA and trkB to support some neuronal survival. Third, most types of afferents are dependent on a different combination of neurotrophins and receptors for their survival: reticular and transverse lanceolate afferents are dependent upon NT-3, NGF, and trkA; Ruffini afferents upon BDNF and trkB; longitudinal lanceolate afferents upon NGF, trkA, BDNF, and trkB; and Merkel afferents on NGF, trkA, NT-3, trkC, and p75. NT-4 has no obvious detrimental impact on the mechanoreceptor development in the presence of BDNF. Fourth, NT-4 and BDNF signaling through trkB may suppress Merkel innervation and NT-3 signaling through trkC may suppress Ruffini innervation. Finally, regardless of the neurotrophin/receptor dependency for afferent survival and neurite outgrowth, NT-3 has an impact on the formation of all the sensory endings. In the context of these findings, indications of competitive and suppressive interactions that appear to regulate the balance of innervation density among the various sets of innervation were evident.

- MEK inhibition in combination with a glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK3β) inhibitor, referred as the 2i condition, favors pluripotency in embryonic stem cells (ESCs). However, the mechanisms by which the 2i condition limits ESC differentiation and whether RAS proteins are involved in this phenomenon remain poorly understood. Here we show that RAS nullyzygosity reduces the growth of mouse ESCs (mESCs) and prohibits their differentiation. Upon RAS deficiency or MEK inhibition, ERF (E twenty-six 2 [Ets2]-repressive factor), a transcriptional repressor from the ETS domain family, translocates to the nucleus, where it binds to the enhancers of pluripotency factors and key RAS targets. Remarkably, deletion of Erf rescues the proliferative defects of RAS-devoid mESCs and restores their capacity to differentiate. Furthermore, we show that Erf loss enables the development of RAS nullyzygous teratomas. In summary, this work reveals an essential role for RAS proteins in pluripotency and identifies ERF as a key mediator of the response to RAS/MEK/ERK inhibition in mESCs.

- The European Cancer Concord is a unique patient-centered partnership that will act as a catalyst to achieve improved access to an optimal standard of cancer care and research for European citizens. In order to provide tangible benefits for European cancer patients, the partnership proposes the creation of a “European Cancer Patient's Bill of Rights,” a patient charter that will underpin equitable access to an optimal standard of care for Europe's citizens.
