USP20-RAB8A signaling axis restricts pancreatic cancer progression by disrupting GLUT1 vesicular trafficking and inhibiting glucose uptake. (PubMed, Cancer Lett)
Collectively, our findings reveal that the USP20-RAB8A-GLUT1 axis regulates glucose uptake and metabolic reprogramming in PDAC, thereby inhibiting tumor growth and metastasis. Targeting this signaling axis provides a novel insight into metabolic therapy for pancreatic cancer.

A stratified two-stage tumor molecular profiling algorithm to identify clinically actionable molecular alterations in pancreatic cancer. (PubMed, ESMO Gastrointest Oncol)
Stratified two-stage TMP reliably identifies actionable alterations in PC patients, with potential therapeutic benefit. The proposed TMP algorithm might be as effective, yet more feasible and economic compared with comprehensive upfront testing.

Tumor microenvironment changes after treatment with avelumab and immune- stimulating agent combinations in patients with advanced solid tumors. (PubMed, Res Sq)
Methods We performed whole exome sequencing (WES), bulk RNAseq, multiplex immunofluorescence (mIF) and chromogenic immunohistochemistry (IHC) on tumor tissue and flow cytometry of the peripheral blood to study longitudinal changes following the combination of avelumab with utomilumab (a 4-1BB agonist) (arm A), PF-04518600 (an OX40 agonist) (arm B), utomilumab and PF-04518600 (arm C) and utomilumab and radiotherapy (arm D) in phase I/II study (NCT03217747). Conclusions Our findings, though limited, highlight genomic differences between histologic subsets and outcome as well as the need for combination strategies that drive the recruitment and/or priming of anti-tumor T cells and address low immune permissive tumor states in patients with advanced solid tumors. Clinical trial registration: This clinical trial was registered on clinicaltrials.gov NCT03217747.

Spectrum of KRAS variants in primary lung mucinous adenocarcinoma: implications for diagnosis, testing, and therapy. (PubMed, J Am Soc Cytopathol)
In our cohort, KRAS mutations were more prevalent in PLMAC than PLNMAC (72% vs. 40%, P < 0.05). However, the KRAS G12C variant was significantly less frequent in PLMAC compared to PLNMAC (19% vs. 47%, P < 0.05), suggesting that patients with PLMAC are less likely to benefit from KRAS G12C-targeted therapy. These findings underscore the importance of comprehensive KRAS genotyping and highlight the need for developing additional KRAS variant-targeted therapy for patients with PLMAC.

Oral immunization with Listeria monocytogenes vaccine enhances immunotherapy for protective immunity in murine models of colorectal cancer. (PubMed, J Immunother Cancer)
Oral Lm-based cancer vaccines targeting CRC elicit robust, widely disseminated, and persistent tumor-specific immune responses in mice. These vaccines limit CRC development when administered prophylactically and provide tumor control when administered therapeutically with ICI. Thus, oral delivery of Lm-based cancer vaccines coupled with ICI may provide improved control of CRC progression in clinical application.

Endothelial oncogenic KRAS mutation drives the dynamics of microglia and macrophages in brain arteriovenous malformation. (PubMed, JCI Insight)
Inhibition of MG/Mϕ with long-term minocycline treatment attenuated the incidence of ICHs around bAVMs. Our study indicates that MG/Mϕ are involved in destabilization of KRAS-induced bAVM, leading to hemorrhagic conversion/ICH. Thus, modulation of MG/Mϕ may reduce ICH risk in bAVM patients.

Genomic Characterization of Lung Cancer in Never-Smokers Using Deep Learning. (PubMed, Mod Pathol)
Compared to results from established architectures such as Inception-v3 on the same WSIs, our model demonstrated significantly improved performance for most features. With further optimization, our model could support triaging for molecular testing and inform precision treatment strategies for NS-LUAD patients.

Kras G12C- and G12D-driven lung cancers differ in oncogenic potency, immunogenicity, and relapse after Kras inhibition in mouse models. (PubMed, Sci Transl Med)
This combination induces durable immune memory in immunogenic models but not in nonimmunogenic settings. Our findings underscore key differences between KRAS G12D and G12C mutations in shaping lung cancer biology, reveal distinct resistance dynamics under long-term targeted therapy, and uncover immune-mediated mechanisms specific to KRASG12D inhibition with direct clinical and translational relevance.

Case report: Immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced fulminant diabetic ketoacidosis: a case-based review and considerations for immunotherapy discontinuation. (PubMed, Front Immunol)
An elderly male diagnosed with Stage IV LUAD achieved sustained stable disease (SD) and symptomatic improvement through a sequential therapeutic strategy, including platinum-based chemotherapy followed by the PD-1 inhibitor sintilimab combined with anti-angiogenic agents (apatinib or anlotinib). This case demonstrates that while ICIs can provide exceptional long-term benefits in advanced NSCLC, particularly in patients with highly immunogenic mutation profiles, they may also trigger late-onset fatal irAEs. Our findings underscore the imperative for close, long-term metabolic surveillance throughout the course of immunotherapy, regardless of treatment duration or radiological stability.

Treatment resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy in lung and ovarian cancer is driven by a targetable TGFβ senescent secretome. (PubMed, Nat Aging)
TGFBR1 inhibition with galunisertib or senolytic treatment reduces tumor progression driven by cisplatin-induced senescence, and concomitant use of TGFBR1 inhibitors with platinum-based chemotherapy reduces tumor burden and improves survival. Finally, we validate the translational relevance of tumor-promoting TGFβ-enriched SASP using clinical NSCLC and HGSOC samples from patients who received neoadjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy. Together, our findings identify a potential cancer therapy resistance mechanism and provide preclinical proof of concept for future trials.
