AR positive

Although significance was observed only in certain subgroups, AR status may have clinical value and warrants further investigation using standardised assessment methods. CRD42023447385.

In summary, an optimized one-pot, two-step synthesis of [18F]FPIA on a vial-based automated synthesizer was successful and a seamless transition into a GMP facility is reported, enabling a streamlined transition to clinical production. Furthermore, we have demonstrated the use of [18F]FPIA for noninvasive metabolic imaging in prostate cancer and its potential to distinguish between different prostate cancer subtypes.

Moreover, immunohistochemical analysis of ex vivo- irradiated, patient - derived PCa tissues from patients with newly diagnosed high - Gleason score prostate cancer undergoing prostatectomy further demonstrated that radiation-induced autophagy supports the survival of high-grade AR-positive tumor cells. Collectively, our findings reveal that AR promotes radioresistance in PCa by enhancing both DNA repair and autophagy.

Small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors such as lenvatinib and axitinib may provide disease stabilization in adenoid cystic carcinoma, although tumor shrinkage is uncommon and toxicity limits their long-term use. For most patients without a targetable alteration, platinum-based combinations remain the pragmatic choice, though expectations for benefit should be tempered. Future strategies will likely hinge on optimizing biomarker-driven therapies, expanding access to antibody-drug conjugates, and pursuing collaborative trial designs to overcome the rarity and heterogeneity of these tumors.

Consequently, combination therapies targeting DHODH and glutamine metabolism were synergistic in impairing PCa cell proliferation. Altogether, these results highlight DHODH as a metabolic vulnerability of AR-positive and AR-negative PCa cells by regulating central carbon and nitrogen metabolism.

AR expression is associated with improved prognosis in ER-positive BC, but its role in TNBC and HER2-positive BC remains unclear due to heterogeneity and non-significant results. Standardized AR evaluation and prospective studies are needed to confirm its prognostic and predictive value for personalized BC treatment.

This case underscores several diagnostic challenges: (1) histology from the primary lesion initially suggested a benign tumour, discordant with aggressive radiological features; (2) ancillary molecular testing with PLAG1 FISH was critical in linking the primary PA with metastatic carcinoma; and (3) HER2 overexpression and androgen receptor positivity highlighted potential therapeutic targets, though the rapid disease course precluded treatment. Correlation of imaging, histology, cytology, and molecular studies is crucial, particularly when biopsy findings appear discordant with clinical behaviour.

This may be the result of a functional interaction between ERβ and p53 or AR. The role of ERβ in TNBC will be elucidated in further complex studies considering multiple molecules.

These findings suggest that the circulating 3LS is not just a prognostic biomarker, but an actionable signature reflecting changes in PC biology. The plasma lipid milieu identified by the 3LS drives a pro-survival phenotype by modifying lipid metabolism and upregulating ceramide/S1P signalling. The study provides the biological rationale to target ceramide-S1P signalling in patients, who are 3LS-positive.

We report the case of a 38-year-old male with unresectable intra-abdominal DSRCT treated with the VAC-IE regimen (vincristine, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide, alternating with ifosfamide and etoposide) as first-line therapy...As second-line therapy, he received gemcitabine and docetaxel...Alternative regimens include temozolomide plus irinotecan or gemcitabine plus doxorubicin. In patients with androgen receptor positivity, hormonal blockade with leuprolide and bicalutamide may be a therapeutic option, particularly in frail patients...DSRCT is a challenging and aggressive malignancy requiring a multidisciplinary and individualized approach. The combination of systemic therapy and local control measures remains critical for improving patient outcomes.
