Philippine Clinical Practice Guidelines for Periodic Health Examination: Screening for Neoplastic Diseases. (PubMed, Acta Med Philipp)
Through a comprehensive and systematic search of the best available evidence, the Neoplastic Diseases Task Force developed 20 recommendations on screening and risk factor assessment for 10 specific questions on neoplastic diseases. These recommendations serve as guidance on screening neoplastic diseases at the primary care level.

A CDK4/6 inhibitor-armed oncolytic adenovirus reverses T cell exhaustion through the Rb-p65-CCL5 pathway and potentiates the antitumor activity of anti-PD-1 or CAR-T therapy in colorectal cancer. (PubMed, Front Immunol)
Correspondingly, ADV-PTD4-D3 treatment improved the antitumor response to both PD-1 blockade and CAR-T cell therapy in combination studies. These findings suggest that engineering oncolytic viruses to locally modulate pathways involved in T cell exhaustion represents a viable and translatable strategy for enhancing antitumor immunity.

Three-Dimensional Platform-Dependent Modulation of Stemness and EMT-Associated Gene Expression in Primary and Metastatic Uveal Melanoma Models. (PubMed, Exp Eye Res)
Three-dimensional culture architecture was associated with differential modulation of stemness- and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition-associated transcription in uveal melanoma. Platform selection and tumour origin were associated with differences in the phenotype observed in vitro and should be carefully aligned with specific biological endpoints when modelling disease progression.

CDK4/6-targeted therapy: From clinical inhibitors to emerging strategies to overcome resistance. (PubMed, Bioorg Med Chem)
The clinical deployment of ATP-competitive inhibitors-Palbociclib, Ribociclib, and Abemaciclib-has revolutionized the standard of care for hormone receptor-positive breast cancer. By recruiting the ubiquitin-proteasome system to catalytically degrade target proteins, CDK4/6-PROTACs eliminate both enzymatic activity and non-catalytic scaffolding functions, offering a mechanistically distinct strategy to overcome the structural limitations of traditional inhibitors. This review summarizes the progression from clinical inhibitors to strategies for overcoming resistance, offering insights into the future development of CDK4/6-targeted therapies.

Vasoproliferative Retinal Tumor with Hemangioblastoma-like Features: Evaluation with von Wilebrand Factor. (PubMed, J Clin Med)
Our findings demonstrate that VPRT may exhibit mixed clinicopathologic features, including hemangioblastoma-like components, which underscores the necessity of immunohistochemical assessment for definitive diagnosis. Furthermore, the quantification of VWF abnormalities in the plasma and vitreous suggests that VWF serves as a potential biomarker reflecting endothelial activation and/or blood-retinal barrier disruption in vascularized retinal tumors.

PRMT5 as a Key Driver of Stemness and Metastatic Potential in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer. (PubMed, Biomolecules)
Notably, PRMT5 inhibitors demonstrate synergistic anticancer activity when combined with inhibitors of key oncogenic signaling pathways, including EGFR, PARP, and AKT. While several PRMT5 inhibitors are currently being evaluated in clinical trials for other malignancies, no clinical trials have yet been initiated specifically for TNBC.
