HER2-targeted molecular probes for cancer imaging: construction, optimization, and clinical applications. (PubMed, Int J Surg)
Despite considerable preclinical progress, the widespread clinical translation of these probes remains challenged by issues in scalable manufacturing, reproducible quality control, and regulatory validation. Addressing these application barriers represents a critical objective for future research to fully realize the potential of HER2-targeted molecular imaging in precision oncology.

Expression of Survivin and HER-2 as Independent Predictive Factors for Treatment Response in Locally Advanced Breast Cancer: A Prospective Cohort Study. (PubMed, Asian Pac J Cancer Prev)
Survivin and HER-2 expression are significantly associated and serve as independent predictors of poor response to NACT in LABC patients. Evaluation of these biomarkers could be crucial in risk stratification and the personalization of therapy.

Characteristics of Patients with De Novo Metastatic Breast Cancer and Positive Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 in a Reference Center in Mexico. (PubMed, Cureus)
No relevant statistical significance was found; the exploratory survival outcomes should be interpreted as exploratory due to high lost-to-follow up rate. These results could be useful in terms of design of future clinical trials.

Optimizing second-line endocrine-based treatment in HR positive HER2 negative metastatic breast cancer: a comprehensive expert statement from the Gulf Cooperation Council Region. (PubMed, Front Oncol)
This consensus uniquely contextualizes global evidence for GCC-specific healthcare constraints, addressing gaps in diagnostic access, affordability, and real-world feasibility, while providing treatment recommendations that help clinicians refine therapeutic strategies and incorporate patient preferences for improved outcomes. The panel recommends early genomic testing (PIK3CA, AKT, BRCA, ESR1) to guide therapy, prioritizing targeted agents such as oral SERDs and PI3K/AKT inhibitors in second-line sequencing, cautious use of alpelisib in diabetic patients, and incorporating patient preferences through shared decision-making and multidisciplinary care.

Gastric Adenocarcinoma With Enteroblastic Differentiation Presenting as Lung Nodules: A Diagnostic Dilemma. (PubMed, J Community Hosp Intern Med Perspect)
The patient was started on capecitabine and oxaliplatin in addition to trastuzumab with subsequent clinical and radiological improvement. Unresectable, metastatic HER2 positive conventional adenocarcinoma is being managed using platinum-fluoropyrimidine doublet therapy with anti-HER2 monoclonal antibody trastuzumab. This case report calls for aggressive IHC staining for prompt diagnosis where necessary as well as proper guidelines for management.

Event-Free Survival After Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Oligoprogressive Metastatic Breast Cancer. (PubMed, Clin Breast Cancer)
Our findings suggest that PDRT may delay the occurrence of events and the need to change systemic therapy in selected patients. This benefit appears more prominent in cases of HER2 positive or luminal aBC and in cases of nodal progression. Future research should focus on refining selection criteria to identify patients with higher benefit from PDRT.

Resistance Mechanisms and Post-Trastuzumab Deruxtecan (T-DXd) Strategies in HER2+ and HER2-Low Breast Cancer: From Biology to Clinical Practice. (PubMed, Crit Rev Oncol Hematol)
Novel agents such as ARX788, patritumab deruxtecan, and Dato-DXd demonstrate promise in overcoming resistance through diversified mechanisms. Real-world data further support a "three-step strategy" involving ADC rechallenge after interim non-ADC therapies, offering a practical, mechanism-informed treatment model. This review provides a framework for precision-guided care in patients with advanced breast cancer and supports ongoing efforts to extend the therapeutic window beyond initial T-DXd benefit.

HER2-Targeting and TRAIL-Presenting Protein Nanoparticles Induce a Concentration-Dependent Biphasic Response in HER2-Positive Breast Cancer Cells. (PubMed, Biomacromolecules)
Unexpectedly, dual-ligand AaLS protein nanoparticles (AaLS/TRAIL/A10 and AaLS/TRAIL/2Rb17C) exhibited biphasic cytotoxicity; low doses synergistically enhanced apoptosis in HER2-positive cells, whereas higher doses reduced efficacy, likely due to the activation of survival signaling. These results highlight the importance of dose optimization for maximizing the use of TRAIL-based targeted therapies.
