Case Report: Successful conversion surgery following chemo-antiangiogenic therapy in a lung adenocarcinoma patient with active rheumatoid arthritis and rare EGFR mutation after immunotherapy-triggered flare. (PubMed, Front Oncol)
Initial therapy with 'pemetrexed + carboplatin + tislelizumab' was administered...The RA flare was managed with methylprednisolone 1 mg/kg/day followed by a slow prednisone taper and sulfasalazine. Treatment was switched to 'pemetrexed + carboplatin + bevacizumab'...It may create a potential opportunity for conversion surgery in well-responding patients, enabling long-term disease control. This case underscores the critical importance of highly individualized, multidisciplinary treatment decision-making.

Assessing in house comprehensive genomic profiling by liquid biopsy for NSCLC patients. (PubMed, Tumori)
TSO500 demonstrates high concordance with G360 for detecting actionable alterations and robust fusion identification. Its ability to detect additional variants and resistance mutations not found in tissue highlights its potential value in guiding personalized treatment decisions for NSCLC patients.

High-fidelity super-resolution CT radiomics for non-invasive EGFR mutation prediction in lung adenocarcinoma: a multi-center pooled analysis. (PubMed, Radiol Med)
RCAN-driven SR reconstruction effectively addresses CT resolution limitations, capturing fine-grained radiogenomic signatures critical for molecular phenotyping. This high-fidelity framework offers a robust, non-invasive decision-support tool for personalized precision oncology in LUAD.

Molecular characteristics and modifications of glioblastoma affecting the efficacy of immunotherapy. (PubMed, Exp Neurol)
The use of advanced technologies, including single-cell sequencing and machine learning, is identified as crucial in uncovering the complexities of tumor-immune interactions, leading to more refined and effective treatment strategies. Ultimately, a comprehensive approach integrating genetic and epigenetic factors offers promising prospects for transforming glioblastoma into a more manageable condition, improving patient prognosis and quality of life.

A pilot single-case longitudinal multi-omics of canine oral melanoma characterizes endogenous mutation patterns and radiotherapy-associated responses. (PubMed, Gene)
Shared differentially expressed genes between tumor and blood post-RT samples suggest that peripheral blood may partially capture systemic molecular responses after RT. These findings offer preliminary insights into the molecular landscape of canine oral melanoma and provide a hypothesis-generating basis for future validation of candidate molecular markers associated with RT response.

The clinicoradiological and pathological-molecular characteristics associated with spread through air spaces in stage IA invasive lung adenocarcinoma. (PubMed, Insights Imaging)
Preoperative identification of STAS remains a clinical challenge in stage IA lung adenocarcinoma. Our clinicoradiological model can simultaneously predict STAS and stratify recurrence risk. STAS-positive cases can be characterized by micropapillary/solid patterns and KRAS/ALK mutations. These findings may assist with surgical decision-making and facilitate tailored adjuvant therapy selection.

Transplacental transfer of osimertinib and alectinib using an ex vivo human placental perfusion model. (PubMed, Placenta)
These findings suggest that osimertinib crosses the placenta with a moderate tissue uptake, while alectinib and its metabolite M4 do not appear to be transferred to the fetus but accumulate significantly within the placental tissue. Further studies are needed to guide treatment selection for NSCLC in pregnant women.

Optimal Use of Targeted Therapy and Immunotherapy in Early-Stage, Resectable Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer. (PubMed, Am Soc Clin Oncol Educ Book)
Recent clinical trials have led to US Food and Drug Administration approval of osimertinib and alectinib as adjuvant treatments for resected pathologic stage II/III EGFR and ALK-mutated NSCLC; their use in the neoadjuvant setting remains subject to trials. These questions are the subject of two ongoing National Clinical Trials Network trials: CTIU2317-A082304-S2402-Perioperative versus Adjuvant Systemic Therapy in Patients with Resectable NSCLC (PROSPECT-Lung; ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04267848)-and S2414-A Randomized Phase III Trial Incorporating Pathologic Response in Participants with Early-Stage NSCLC to Optimize Immunotherapy in the Adjuvant Setting (INSIGHT; ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT06498635). We discuss why there is sufficient equipoise to justify seeking answers to these two extremely important, patient-centered questions.

Effect of EGFR-TP53 co-mutation on the efficacy of EGFR-TKIs in patients with advanced NSCLC and therapeutic strategies: A retrospective study. (PubMed, Medicine (Baltimore))
The mOS of the EGFR-TP53 co-mutant group who received second-line TKIs combined with platinum-containing double-drug chemotherapy and bevacizumab after the progression of first-line single-drug TKIs was 27.0 months versus 6.0 months compared with those who did not receive second-line therapy (P = .019). In first-line EGFR-TKIs monotherapy in patients with EGFR-TP53 co-mutation, osimertinib was clearly superior to gefitinib. In first-line EGFR-TKIs monotherapy progression, TKIs combined with chemotherapy and antiangiogenesis therapy could prolong patients' survival.
