Comparing the effect of traditional and novel tyrosine kinase inhibitors for epidermal growth factor receptor exon 20 insertions by molecular dynamics simulation. (PubMed, J Int Med Res)
When binding to osimertinib, ASV- and SVD-EGFR still revealed two energy minima on their free energy landscapes, but with considerably less conformational probability distribution at collective variable 2 >1.00 Å. In contrast, mobocertinib eliminated the energy minima at collective variable 2 >1.00 Å while decreasing the K745-E762 salt bridge formation rates.ConclusionsMobocertinib outperforms osimertinib in targeting specific subtypes of EGFR exon 20 insertions, highlighting its ability to restore the inactive state of this protein.

Brain Metastatic Tumor Flare After Sunvozertinib Dose Reduction in a Patient with Surgical Resected EGFR ex20ins NSCLC. (PubMed, Onco Targets Ther)
Our case highlighted the feasibility of sunvozertinib neoadjuvant therapy in EGFR ex20ins-positive NSCLC patient with locally advanced disease. Importantly, adjuvant therapy using an adequate dosage of sunvozertinib is pivotal to prevent disease flare and tumor recurrence.

Fibrous Disease of the Breast Can Obscure Breast Cancer Margins on Ultrasound: A Case Report. (PubMed, Cureus)
The patient recovered uneventfully, was discharged on the second day after surgery, received one year of trastuzumab monotherapy as the postoperative adjuvant therapy due to the patient's strong preference, and has been well for 14 months. Diagnostic physicians should note that unilateral fibrous disease of the breast should be evaluated with MRI before tissue sampling, and the change of posterior echoes is an important diagnostic clue for the diagnosis of breast cancer in the fibrous disease of the breast.

NRG1 fusion-positive solid tumors: clinical detection, genomic landscape, and real-world data in pancreatic cancer. (PubMed, J Natl Cancer Inst)
NRG1 fusions are a newly described clinically actionable target in solid tumors. We report the landscape of NRG1+ cancers and highlight the importance of RNA testing. NRG1+ PDAC is enriched in younger patients with KRAS wild-type disease and has a unique biology.

Efficacy and Safety of Different Treatment Regimens for Previously Untreated Patients with HER2-positive Advanced Gastric Cancer: A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials. (PubMed, J Gastrointest Cancer)
No first-line regimen significantly improved OS or PFS in HER2-positive advanced gastric cancer. However, HLX22-based and immune-combination strategies show potential clinical value-particularly in enhancing ORR-and merit further investigation.

CPT1A exacerbates trastuzumab-induced cardiotoxicity via promotion of mitochondrial dysfunction. (PubMed, Int J Biol Macromol)
In vitro mechanistic studies revealed that CPT1A may promote mitochondrial damage and induce cardiomyocyte injury by interacting with Parkin. This study underscores the utility of multi-omics integration in elucidating TIC mechanisms and paves the way for personalized cardioprotective strategies in HER2-targeted therapy.

Mechanism exploration of Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge against trastuzumab induced cardiotoxicity via multi-omics. (PubMed, J Ethnopharmacol)
DS extract alleviates TRZ-induced cardiotoxicity, manifested by improved cardiac function, reduced myocardial injury markers, and mitigated tissue and mitochondrial damage. Its mechanism of action is associated with regulating proteins in the ferroptosis pathway (upregulating GPX4 and downregulating ACSL4). Additionally, tanshinone I, IIA, and IIB have been identified as potential active components.
