FGF3 (Fibroblast growth factor 3)

LA-HNSCC patients with 11q13 amplification exhibited significantly worse DFS and OS compared to wild-type patients. The recurrence pattern in the 11q13 amplification group was primarily characterized by in-field recurrences within the 60 Gy dose.

Meanwhile, the Low-risk LUAD patients identified by the sBiosNet obtained significant longer overall survival and progression-free survival with anti-PD-1 therapy. In conclusion, the sBiosNet accurately predicts the response and survival of patients on anti-PD-1 therapy to reduce unnecessary treatment in non-responders.

Despite identifying these molecular features, poor prognosis was predicted, and no clinically actionable targets were detected, underscoring the need for future therapeutic development. This paradigm highlights molecular profiling as a critical adjunct to conventional diagnostics in maRPF, bridging the gap between histopathological ambiguity and biologically grounded clinical decision-making.

Moreover, SCC could carry canonical NSCLC) activating mutations. Our data suggest that deep molecular analyses resolve tumor heterogeneity and may help with new algorithm-based treatment strategies for SCC.

The impact of the work was to revolutionize mouse genetics by enabling the efficient creation of targeted mutations and sophisticated animal models for the analysis of any gene's function in mammalian development and health. These models have been integral to our understanding of fundamental biological processes and disease mechanisms.

In this study, a total of 784 clinically actionable mutations were reported for 1010 patients with genomic sequencing. Of these, 96/1010 (10%) patients had at least one actionable mutation in homologous recombination repair genes (BRCA1, BRCA2, PALB2) and 36/96 (37.5%) patients received PARP inhibitors (33 olaparib and three talazoparib). In addition, 381/1010 (38%) patients had at least one clinically actionable PIK3CA mutation, and 84/381 (22%) received alpelisib. Additionally, 544/1010 (54%) of patients had either AKT1 (41/1010), PIK3CA (381/1010), or PTEN (122/1010) alterations that were FDA approved in November 2023 for capivasertib in the treatment of HR+HER2- metastatic BC (MBC) patients. Furthermore, 144/1010 (14%) patients in this study had at least one ESR1 mutation, a clinically actionable mutation that was FDA approved in January 2023 for elacestrant in the treatment of ER+HER2- MBC patients (44% detected by liquid biopsy). Future studies are needed to determine the efficacy of elacestrant and capivasertib for patients with these mutations, and to tailor strategies for optimal patient quality of life and cancer outcome.

Copy number variation occurred in five genes, including PTEN, CCDN1, FGF19, FGF3 and FGF4. PTEN and fibroblast growth factors might be involved in the molecular regulation of brain metastasis in nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

Part 1 included treatment with fulvestrant (FUL) 500 mg + E7090 (105 or 140 mg) or exemestane (EXE) 25 mg + E7090 (105 or 140 mg). These results emphasize that FGFR pathway activation evaluated with mRNA expression of selected genes at BL—rather than FGFR gene abnormalities—is a key molecular determinant for sensitivity to E7090, an FGFR inhibitor. Future validation of these biomarkers is necessary in a larger population of people with ER+/HER2− BC.

The distribution of genomic alterations is consistent across breast cancer subtypes, regardless of genomic ancestry. These findings highlight the critical need for equitable genomic testing access for all patient populations.

To illustrate these points, we conclude with a case from our clinic involving a 15-year-old female with multiple CD117-positive gastric GISTs and a quadruple-negative wild-type genetic profile who required urgent surgical intervention following a failed tumor embolization. This case underscores the critical need for early diagnosis and individualized therapeutic strategies combining oncologic and surgical care to improve outcomes in pediatric GIST patients.

Our data suggest distinct molecular aberrations exist between YWBC and OWBC. Exploiting these molecular changes could refine our treatment strategies in YWBC and OWBC.

SCL5A2-H across all investigated tumors was associated with increased immune infiltrate and a T cell-inflamed phenotype in addition to improved survival in multiple cancer types. Future research on SGLT2 should delineate its role in cancer formation versus its association as a potential positive prognostic marker.
