    Phase 1b/2 study of batiraxcept alone and in combination with cabozantinib with or without nivolumab for advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma. (PubMed, Oncologist)
    Batiraxcept was well tolerated with promising early efficacy signal when combined with cabozantinib, especially in heavily pretreated patients with ccRCC. The trial was discontinued early due to the sponsor's internal decision.

    CD73 promotes non-small cell lung cancer metastasis by regulating Axl signaling independent of GAS6. (PubMed, Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A)
    We also identified the distinct function of CD73 activity in adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. Our findings indicated a role of CD73 in mediating NSCLC metastasis and propose it as a therapeutic target for NSCLC.

    GAS6-AS1 drives bladder cancer progression by increasing MMP7 expression in a ceRNA- and RBP-dependent manner. (PubMed, Transl Oncol)
    To sum up, GAS6-AS1 promotes UBC progression through two distinct axes: the GAS6-AS1/miR-367-3p/MMP7 axis and the GAS6-AS1/PRC1/APC/Wnt/MMP7 axis, respectively. As a potential biomarker for UBC, GAS6-AS1 holds promising prospects for the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of UBC.
