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.

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.

Efficacy of first-line immunochemotherapy across KRAS mutation subtypes in advanced lung adenocarcinoma. (PubMed, Int J Cancer)
Within the major subgroups (G12A, G12C, G12D, and G12V), PD-L1 levels were not predictive of PFS. STK11 co-mutations were enriched in G12C, G12V, and other subtypes and were associated with shorter PFS.

Design and Synthesis of KRASG12C Inhibitors for Antitumor Evaluation Harboring Combination Therapy with Nrf2, PARP-7, and Pan-USP Inhibitors to Alleviate Drug Resistance Synergistically. (PubMed, J Med Chem)
Compared with positive control MRTX849, the synthesized compounds 7g, 7p, 7q, 7r, 7v, and 7y displayed stronger antiproliferative activities against H358 cells with IC50 values of < 1 nM (3D cell culture) and comparable inhibitory potency against KRASG12C...Meaningfully, 7q combined with Nrf2 inhibitor ML385 or PARP7 inhibitor RBN-2397 greatly enhanced the sensitivity of 7q against lung cells (H1373) in vivo. Furthermore, combination therapy of 7q with pan-USP inhibitor PR-619 obtained a statistically significant synergistic inhibition of H1373 cell growth in vitro and in vivo. Our findings indicate that 7q may be a promising drug candidate for the treatment of cancers harboring the KRASG12C mutation, and the results of the combination regimen established a pharmacological foundation for addressing drug resistance.
