PI3K signaling plays an important role in cancer cell survival, angiogenesis and metastasis, making it a promising therapeutic target. There are several ongoing and completed clinical trials involving PI3K inhibitors (pan, isoform-specific and dual PI3K/mTOR) with the goal to find efficient PI3K inhibitors that could overcome resistance to current therapies. This review focuses on the current landscape of various PI3K inhibitors either as monotherapy or in combination therapies and the treatment outcomes involved in various phases of clinical trials in different cancer types. There is a discussion of the drug-related toxicities, challenges associated with these PI3K inhibitors and the adverse events leading to treatment failure. In addition, novel PI3K drugs that have potential to be translated in the clinic are highlighted.

  • Intermedial Autobiography Since Roland Barthes A
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Between Erasure and Exposure: Intermedial Autobiography Since Roland Barthes A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in French and Francophone Studies by Lauren Elizabeth Van Arsdall 2015 © Copyright by Lauren Elizabeth Van Arsdall 2015 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Between Erasure and Exposure: Intermedial Autobiography Since Roland Barthes by Lauren Elizabeth Van Arsdall Doctor of Philosophy in French and Francophone Studies University of California, Los Angeles, 2015 Professor Malina Stefanovska, Chair In my dissertation, I investigate the trend toward intermedial representations of the self in contemporary French personal writing of an autobiographical type. The theoretical framework of my dissertation is based on notions of referentiality presented in La chambre claire, and in essays contemporaneous to Roland Barthes’s by Jean-Luc Nancy, Jacques Derrida, Pierre Bourdieu, and Jean Baudrillard. As I demonstrate, they are in dialogue with it, all the while exploring the boundaries of self-representation in relation to illness and death. At the outset, an analysis of the discourses of photography in France from the 1980s to the early 2000s informs my discussion of representations of an expected death in works by Alix Cléo Roubaud, Jacques Roubaud, Annie Ernaux, and Hervé Guibert. I argue that the legacy of a Barthesian conceptualization of the photograph obliges writers to rethink their stance towards representing the self. Through gestures of erasure and exposure, they create an intermedial aesthetic coupling writing, photography, and film to explore anew certain taboos concerning self and death. Intermediality opens up the notions of referentiality presented in Roland Barthes’s La chambre ii claire: note sure la photographie— the making of traces through writing, memories, and recording the body.

Therefore, I feel it is only right to take the time now to thank them for their support. My advisor and dissertation chair, Rachel Walker, has been an amazing mentor and role model. Rachel embodies the well-balanced academic, her teaching and advising styles are enviable, and as I now realize more than ever before, her seemingly effortless manner stems from constant dedication and preparation. I am extremely grateful for her support in all aspects of my education, including the many service projects I found myself involved in. I could not have asked for a more understanding and compassionate advisor.
