In this updated exploratory analysis from INTRIGUE, OS was longer for ripretinib vs sunitinib for pts with KIT exon 11 + 17/18 mutations identified by baseline ctDNA. The safety profile was consistent and more favorable for ripretinib vs sunitinib in these pts. Previously presented at the 2024 ESMO Sarcoma and Rare Cancers Congress.

Meanwhile, MBZ directly targeted the colchicine-binding site of β-tubulin protein, hampered microtubule polymerization and induced mitosis arrest and mitotic catastrophe. This work discovered that anthelmintic MBZ exerts remarkable anticancer effects in both imatinib-sensitive and imatinib-resistant CML cells in vitro and revealed mechanisms underlying. From the perspective of drug repositioning and multi-target therapeutic strategy, this study provides a promising option for CML treatment, especially in TKI-resistant or intolerant individuals.

PSMA-encoding FOLH1 gene expression correlates with neoangiogenesis and predicts PFS in m-ccRCC patients treated with sunitinib TKI, suggesting that PSMA PET could be explored as a noninvasive biomarker for guiding CST choice (IO/IO or IO/VEGFi) as well as prediction of treatment response to VEGFi in m-ccRCC patients.

We validated the expression levels of these four genes using clinical samples and confirmed through cell experiments that targeted inhibition of IGFBP2 effectively suppressed proliferation of resistant CML cells, promoted apoptosis, and enhanced therapeutic sensitivity to imatinib...The identification of molecular subtypes provides valuable insights into assessing individual patients' biological characteristics for guiding clinical treatment decisions. Additionally, IGFBP2 has emerged as a promising therapeutic target for therapy-resistant cases of CML.

H&E staining of major organs revealed no signs of damage, indicating the biosafety of St/siVEGFR-2@PCN-224@HA. The prepared St/siVEGFR-2@PCN-224@HA system enables triple inhibition of tumor growth via a combination of targeted therapy and genetic and photodynamic therapy to enhance the therapeutic effects on RCC.

Collectively, GFPT2 is potentially useful as a biomarker for prognostic prediction and immune infiltration in a variety of malignancies ,and could lead to exciting new approaches to personalized oncotherapy.

Transcriptomic analysis of these resistant organoids identified key pathways related to KRAS signaling, inflammation, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), revealing potential targets for overcoming Lenvatinib resistance.

Furthermore, STAMBPL1 silencing and the tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) sunitinib also exhibited a synergistic effect on the suppression of KIRC. Collectively, targeting the STAMBPL1/TRIM21/AXL axis can decrease mesenchymal phenotype and potentiate anti-tumor efficacy of cancer therapy.

Finally, we recommended KGs-guided four repurposable drug molecules (Fluoxetine, Vatalanib, TGX221 and RO3306) against GBM through molecular docking, drug likeness, ADMET analyses and molecular dynamics simulation studies. Thus, the discoveries of this study could serve as valuable resources for wet-lab experiments in order to take a proper treatment plan against GBM.

Our findings suggest lenvatinib is a valuable treatment option for patients with HCC recurrence after LT.

Additionally, overexpression of LPAR1 restrained the biological function of miR-429 on imatinib chemoresistance. MiR-429 partly sensitized glioma cells to imatinib via downregulation LPAR1, which might provide an approach to overcome imatinib chemoresistance during glioma treatment.

Univariate and multivariate analyses showed heightened ARG1 levels and a transition from PD1/PDL1 dominance at 3 months to TIM3/GAL9 at 12 months in non-optimal responders (BCR::ABL1 ≥ 0.1%). Our longitudinal design offers a deeper exploration of immune gene expression dynamics in CML patients on imatinib, highlighting its potential implications for therapy outcomes.

These results confirmed that dasatinib is a potent chemotherapeutic drug which induces apoptosis and autophagy by suppressing the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway in bladder cancer cells.

Activation of Nrf2 signaling by LR HCC cell-derived exosomal miR-301a-3p skewed the transformation of macrophages to the M2 phenotype. Our study provides new findings on the role of miR-301a-3p, suggesting it is a promising therapeutic target to improve HCC lenvatinib resistance.

The combination regimen demonstrated promising efficacy in treating unresectable HCC, accompanied by manageable safety profiles. Furthermore, the results of this investigation suggest that AFP holds promise as predictive biomarkers for this treatment strategy.

BAIAP2L2 inhibits the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by regulating GABPB1, thereby promoting cancer properties in HCC and reducing the sensitivity of HCC to lenvatinib. In summary, this study elucidates the role and underlying mechanism of BAIAP2L2 in HCC, providing a potential biomarker and therapeutic target for this disease.

Their conjugation with the drugs Irinotecan, Imatinib, and Methotrexate was also confirmed using UV-Vis, FTIR, and Dynamic light scattering (DLS). The result of the methylthiazol tetrazolium (MTT) assay showed that conjugated AgNPs and AuNPs with Irinotecan had a higher toxic effect on the A549 cancer cell line than AgNPs and AuNPs conjugated with Imatinib. This study provides a promising avenue for further investigation and development of nanoparticle-drug conjugates as a potential cancer immunotherapy strategy.

STM2457 treatment attenuated the serine synthesis pathway, induced oxidative stress, and sensitized HCC cells to sorafenib and lenvatinib treatments. In conclusion, our findings suggest that targeting m6A could be a potential therapeutic strategy for HCC treatment.

The optimum micelles exhibited a dramatic reduction in IRF5 expression and revealed a notably higher anti-inflammatory effect than either DB or psiRF5, as indicated by more IL-10 and less IL-6 and TNF-α production by LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophages incubated with the co-delivery system. The resultant nanocarriers might be promising for more effective treatment of inflammatory diseases.

In addition to BCR-ABLIS level, HT of BCR-ABLIS can be used as another important predictor of treatment efficacy in CML patients. The combination of BCR-ABLIS level and HT has a more accurate predictive value for long-term molecular response of CML patients after TKI treatment.

To counteract monotherapy-induced tumor relapse, we assessed GSI-paclitaxel and dasatinib-paclitaxel combination treatments in NOTCH inhibitor-sensitive and -resistant TNBC xenotransplants, respectively. These distinct preventive combinations and second-line treatment option dependent on NOTCH1 and SOX2 expression in TNBC are able to induce tumor growth control and reduce metastatic burden.

Additionally, we found that ATL-I could decrease the level of EPAS1, which was upregulated in sunitinib-resistant cells, thus reversing sunitinib resistance. Collectively, our findings demonstrate that ATL-I is a robust antiangiogenic and antitumor lead compound with potential clinical application for ccRCC therapy.

Collectively, our study showed PLX-3397-related efficacy in ameliorating pain linked to the reduction of microglia and neuroinflammation in mice. Furthermore, our research provided new proof-of-concept data supporting the promise of testing PLX-3397 as an analgesic.
