Construction and evaluation of a bladder cancer prognosis model based on super-enhancer-associated genes. (PubMed, Discov Oncol)
Three genes (MXRA7, PLEKHG4B and ATP2B4) were identified to construct a SERG-related model in BLCA, which provides a basis for understanding BLCA pathogenesis and new insights into BLCA treatment.

Discovery of Novel Heterotetracyclic DNA-Dependent Protein Kinase (DNA-PK) Inhibitors with Improved Oral Bioavailability and Potent Cancer Immunotherapy-Potentiating Activity. (PubMed, J Med Chem)
Remarkably, D11 exhibited excellent pharmacokinetics in SD rats (oral bioavailability: 42.6%; half-life: 50 h) and outperformed the clinical candidate AZD-7648 in LoVo xenografts (TGI = 72.9% vs 54.6% at 50 mg/kg, p.o.). It also synergized with anti-PD-L1 mAb to enhance CD8+ T-cell infiltration. Overall, D11 is a promising heterotetracyclic DNA-PK inhibitor with superior in vivo efficacy, favorable pharmacokinetics, and immunomodulatory potential, supporting further development.

Dual PI3Kδ/γ inhibition enhances radiotherapy-induced antitumor immunity via macrophage-dependent cGAS-STING-type I interferon signaling. (PubMed, Biochem Biophys Res Commun)
In the syngeneic CT26 model, dual PI3Kδ/γ inhibition (BR101801 or duvelisib), unlike selective PI3Kδ inhibition (idelalisib), synergized with RT (7.5 Gy) to suppress tumor growth and induce durable immune memory. Furthermore, blockade of the IFN-I receptor abolished CD8+ T cell infiltration and M2-like macrophage suppression, abrogating antitumor efficacy and confirming the requirement for IFN-I signaling. These findings identify macrophage-driven activation of the cGAS-STING-IFN-I axis as a key mechanism by which dual PI3Kδ/γ inhibition potentiates RT, providing a strong scientific rationale for its development as an immunomodulatory radiosensitizer.
