EGFR positive

This extensive data pool suggests significant benefit of CDK4/6i regimens after disease progression as compared with ET monotherapy. Our data also support current guideline recommendations of ET-based therapies over chemotherapy for treatment sequencing.

When administered above the microdose, ABY-029 demonstrated high correlation to EGFR expression and contrast values that were encouraging for translation to clinical practice. Contrast was similar to those observed with antibody agents, but with substantially reduced imaging-to-resection time, and no drug-related adverse events.

The multi-parametric MRI model we developed outperformed the base models in predicting breast cancer molecular subtypes. Our study also showed the potential of FS-T1WI base model in predicting breast cancer molecular subtypes.

We believe that FGFR4 overexpression and complex formation with HER2 can serve as molecular markers to assist clinicians in identifying trastuzumab-resistant tumors. Our results suggest that FGF401 combined with trastuzumab as adjuvant therapy for patients with trastuzumab-resistant breast cancer may be a potential new treatment strategy.

The patient, now on combination therapy for exceeding 12 months, exhibits further decreased tumor size and a high quality of life. This case underscores the importance of precise molecular diagnosis in guiding therapeutic strategies and provides a valuable reference for clinical decision-making in EGFR-positive NSCLC cases with atypical mutations.

EGFR mutations are associated with a favorable prognosis in nodules with lower IASLC grading or more ground glass opacity (GGO) components. The results were reversed in patients with higher IASLC grading or no GGO component.

Chemotherapy is more effective in patients with YWBC. We need to pay more attention to this group and achieve individualized treatment, which will facilitate improved treatment of BC and provide new targets and blueprints for clinical therapy.

The PFS benefit was more pronounced in those individuals who received abemaciclib or ribociclib as second CDK4/6i. Continuation of CDK4/6 inhibition was associated with higher rates of grade 3 and 4 neutropenia (range: 25-40%) and anemia (range: 1.7-11%). In conclusion, switching CDK4/6i and ET conferred a statistically significant improvement of PFS in comparison to ET alone in patients with progression or recurrence on prior CDK4/6i-containing therapy.

We searched the FAERS database for reports of cardiovascular adverse events in patients with HER2-positive breast cancer receiving trastuzumab, ado-trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1), and trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-Dxd). Proportionate analysis showed age and weight were the two key factors contributing to the occurrence of T-DCs induced MACE. HER2-positive breast cancer patients receiving T-DCs require additional cardiac monitoring, particularly for stroke in younger patients.

Recent studies indicate that adding inavolisib, a PI3Kα inhibitor, to palbociclib/fulvestrant benefits patients with endocrine-resistant HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer with a PIK3CA mutation. Alpelisib and capivasertib are both US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved in combination with fulvestrant in patients with endocrine-resistant HR+/HER2-, PIK3CA-mutant metastatic breast cancer, both with activity in the post-CDK4/6 setting...Toxicity profiles of all agents necessitate careful patient selection. Several mutant-selective and pan-mutant-selective novel inhibitors are under investigation with the potential to improve tolerability and efficacy.

Many patients require osimertinib dose reduction due to adverse events, but this process does not adversely affect the drug efficacy.

In this large French observational study, T-DXd users were older, had more comorbidities, and had more brain metastases than patients included in registration trials. The rapid expansion of clinical indications of T-DXd calls for proactive surveillance and timely management of potentially life-threatening T-DXd-related toxicity.

To our knowledge, the SH3PXD2B::FER fusion has never been reported previously. Whether the current case represents an example of a plexiform myofibroblastic tumor or a distinct tumor entity remains to be determined.

Among patients with ER-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer, treatment with imlunestrant led to significantly longer progression-free survival than standard therapy among those with ESR1 mutations but not in the overall population. Imlunestrant-abemaciclib significantly improved progression-free survival as compared with imlunestrant, regardless of ESR1-mutation status. (Funded by Eli Lilly; EMBER-3 ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT04975308.).

Unfortunately, the patient progressed rapidly during maintenance therapy when cadonilimab was replaced by sintilimab, the monoclonal antibody against PD-1, indicating the more powerful anti-tumor activity of dual blockade immunotherapy. To conclude, cadonilimab offers a promising and effective therapeutic approach for R/M CC. Notably, HER-2 is also expected to be a new reference target for cadonilimab therapy.

Interestingly, full-time employment was associated with improved breast cancer DFS. These findings highlight the importance of considering genetic ancestry beyond self-reported race and accounting for social determinants of health, in efforts to improve survival outcomes among Black women with breast cancer.

High SUOX expression may be a new indicator of recurrence risk in surgically resected lung adenocarcinomas.

Research on the potential role of immunotherapy, particularly programmed cell death protein 1/programmed cell death ligand 1 inhibitors, is rapidly expanding in both the early and metastatic settings with some preliminary evidence suggesting benefit when used as part of combination therapy. Several ongoing phase 3 studies should help define their future role in treating these patients.

It is used for the treatment of adult patients with hormone receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative metastatic breast cancer with at least one alteration on PIK3CA/AKT1/PTEN. In this short perspective, Capivasertib's physicochemical properties, synthesis, mechanism of action, binding mode, pharmacokinetics, drug interaction studies, and treatment-emergent adverse events are discussed.

IBMs play a diverse predictive role in pCR in HER2-positive breast cancer stratified by neoadjuvant regimens. The combination of high MLR and high NLR enabled better identification of patients with poor responses to anti-HER2 therapy than high MLR or NLR alone.

This real-world study confirms that patients with HR+ BC and unfavorable clinicopathological features are at risk of relapse early in their adjuvant treatment trajectory, despite (neo)adjuvant chemotherapy. It is imperative to implement innovative treatment approaches for high-risk patients, ideally adding them as early as possible to the adjuvant treatment.

Initially treated for early-stage disease with surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and ET, she progressed to metastatic disease and received ribociclib, letrozole, and goserelin, achieving a partial response. Managed with prednisolone and azathioprine, ribociclib was reintroduced at a reduced dose and later escalated to full dose. This case report highlights the importance of a multidisciplinary approach to balance oncologic efficacy with hepatologic safety.

Between January 2020 and February 2024, we identified four patients with either EML4-ALK fusions (2/4) or EGFR mutations (2/4) who underwent treatment with brigatinib or osimertinib before surgery. This case series highlights the potential of targeted therapies for resectable NSCLC in the neoadjuvant setting. Further research is required to confirm their benefits, assess their safety and efficacy, and determine optimal timing and sequencing.

Patients with EGFR-positive NSCLC and postoperative recurrence have a better ECOG-PS and fewer distant metastases at the start of first-line osimertinib, and better PFS and OS than those with de novo unresectable disease. Postoperative recurrence should be considered as a stratification factor in future clinical trials for advanced EGFR-positive NSCLC.

Patients with luminal HER2-negative ABC may be offered numerous effective lines of systemic treatment, complicating this decision further. Implementing clearer guidelines for end-of-life care for this group and providing proper training for healthcare providers is essential.

The epithelial alternatively spliced FGFR2 IIIb isoform was significantly enriched in ER+ breast cancer, while the mesenchymal FGFR2 IIIc isoform was significantly prevalent in HER2+ cancer. Increased levels of FGFR2 and IIIb splice isoforms are associated with less aggressive breast cancer phenotypes, while decreased levels of FGFR2 and increased IIIc splice isoform are associated with more aggressive phenotypes.

Consensus was defined a priori as ≥75% of voters agreeing with the recommendation as written. There are 9 recommendations in the early setting; 7 recommendations in the metastatic setting; and 10 recommendations for patients with brain metastases.

Panitumumab was successfully and reproducibly labelled with 203Pb in high radiochemical purity using the chelator PSC-NCS. 203Pb-PSC-panitumumab was specifically accumulated and retained in EGFR + tumours in NRG mice with s.c. HNSCC PDX. 203Pb-PSC-panitumumab is a suitable immuno-SPECT radioligand for imaging EGFR + tumours and has great potential for combining with 212Pb-PSC-panitumumab in a radiotheranostic strategy for imaging and treating HNSCC.

Timely recognition and appropriate management may mitigate adverse outcomes. Further studies are needed to confirm these findings and to better understand the role of TBLC and histopathological examination in diagnosing and managing abemaciclib-induced ILD.

Findings from this real-world study indicate patients with HR+/HER2- ABC treated with palbociclib plus ET maintain their QoL for at least 18 months.

We found that the PRS was more strongly associated with EGFR-positive LUAD compared to EGFR-negative LUAD, where the association between the fourth quartile of the PRS and EGFR-positive LUAD (OR=8.63, 95% CI:5.67, 13.14) was significantly higher than the association between the fourth quartile of the PRS with EGFR-negative LUAD (OR=3.50, 95% CI: 2.44, 5.00) (p-heterogeneity=3.66x10-3). Our findings suggest that germline genetic susceptibility may be differentially associated with LUAD in never-smoking female East Asian patients depending on the cancer's mutation status, which may have important public health and clinical implications.

Based on our clinical experience, we provide a unanimous consensus concerning the treatment of elderly patients as well as those with brain-only metastases, leptomeningeal disease, oligometastatic disease, central nervous system oligo-progressive disease or ERBB2-mutant disease. We also discuss how to combine HER2-targeted therapy with endocrine therapy in patients with HER2-positive/hormone-receptor-positive disease, considerations for potential discontinuation of HER2-targeted therapy in patients with long-term remission and how to treat patients whose metastatic biopsy no longer confirms their HER2-positive status.

The combination of CDK4/6i and ET significantly improves PFS and OS compared to ET alone in both Asian and non-Asian patients with HR+/HER2-aBC. Although the magnitude of benefit appears to be independent of ethnicity, future clinical trials should devise a standardized method for stratifying patients by ethnicity to more effectively assess potential differences in treatment benefits.

Additionally, PET/CT imaging with 68Ga-DOTA-Olmutinib showed significant tumor uptake at 60 min with 4 % ID/g post-injection, marking a breakthrough, though the uptake is not yet ideal. Overall, our results suggest that 68Ga-labeled Olmutinib holds promise as a potential PET tracer for detecting EGFR-positive cancers.

This initiative demonstrated the ability to rapidly and effectively transition >95% of eligible breast cancer patients from separate IV trastuzumab and pertuzumab to a fixed combined SC formulation. Patient benefits included shorter administration appointments and a less invasive form of treatment, whereas healthcare system benefits included substantial savings in aseptic preparation time and chair time, and a meaningful increase in clinic capacity. The reported treatment-switch process provides a model that can be adopted by other centres wishing to implement similar treatment switches.

Treatment regimen patterns for HER2-positive BC evolved in correspondence with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's approval of new drugs for this cancer and National Comprehensive Cancer Network treatment guidelines.

IVIM-related metrics exhibited relationships with breast cancer molecular prognosis factors and subtypes.
