Bayesian network meta-analysis (NMA) was conducted to integrate direct and indirect comparisons, addressing the lack of head-to-head trials. Eleven studies (2 RCTs, 9 retrospective; 826 patients) evaluated four treatment strategies: pyrotinib + RT, pyrotinib alone, RT alone, and lapatinib + RT. In contrast, lapatinib + RT appeared to offer limited benefit and a higher risk of SAEs. Further randomized controlled trials are needed to validate these findings.
Percentage cost variation ranged from 8% (Bosutinib) to 14,774.74% (Midostaurin), with corresponding cost ratios up to 148.75...Absolute savings versus median branded costs ranged from ₹2,968 (Dasatinib) to ₹25,270 (Lapatinib), while percentage savings ranged from 58.89% (Dasatinib) to 91.32% (Imatinib)...However, limited PMBJP coverage restricts their overall benefit. Expanding Janaushadhi availability, improving price regulation, and encouraging rational prescribing are crucial to ensure equitable access to targeted cancer therapies in India.

Drug sensitivity screening identified six small molecules (PD0325901, ERK-6604, paclitaxel, ribociclib, TAF1, and lapatinib) that targeted SLC12A5-related pathways. Crucially, multivariate Cox regression analysis confirmed that SLC12A5 was an independent prognostic factor (HR p = 0.04). This study established SLC12A5 as a novel biomarker for GBM, uniquely bridging molecular dysregulation, edema pathogenesis, and radiomics with implications for prognosis and targeted therapy.

Established therapies such as trastuzumab, pertuzumab, trastuzumab/pertuzumab, lapatinib and tucatinib are widely used and are selectively toxic to HER2-positive breast cancer cell line. In conclusion, we demonstrate different time- and concentration-dependent effects of anti-HER2-targeted therapies for the treatment of advanced HER2-positive breast cancer on the BBB in vitro. Further experiments are required to assess the clinical relevance of our results.

A subgroups comparison found that significant differences were observed in patients who had not used lapatinib (P = 0.016), had a number of metastatic sites ≤ 2 (P = 0.011), were intolerant to trastuzumab (P = 0.004), and were on first-line pyrotinib treatment (P = 0.036), with these patients having median progression-free survival lengths of 13.0 months, 15.9 months, 23.5 months, and 23.5 months, respectively. In addition, a rare positive fecal occult blood profile (5.4%) was observed. Pyrotinib-based regimens have shown satisfactory clinical efficacy in HER2-positive stage III/IV BC patients, and pyrotinib is well tolerated with manageable adverse events.

Among them, ATF-2 demonstrated antiproliferative activity comparable to HER2 inhibitor lapatinib and significantly suppressed HER2 expression and activity, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) activity, and cyclin-dependent kinase 6 (CDK6) expression in HCC1954 breast cancer cells. These findings highlight ATF-2 as a promising dual HSP90-HER2 inhibitor with broader inhibitory effects on the HER2, EGFR, and CDK6 pathways.

Targeted therapies of lapatinib, fulvestrant, and endocrine agents (letrozole or ribociclib) show disproportionately high AE reporting odds ratios, necessitating vigilant monitoring. HER2-positive BC treatments (trastuzumab) and TNBC agents (sonidegib) exhibit distinct risk profiles, advocating for personalized risk-benefit assessments for BC patients.
Beyond its anticancer effects, the nanocarrier displayed broad-spectrum antibacterial activity (minimum bactericidal concentrations: 5 mg mL-1 for Staphylococcus aureus and 10 mg mL-1 for Escherichia coli) and moderate antioxidant capacity (DPPH IC50 = 666 μg mL-1). Collectively, these results position LAP@ZIF-8 as a versatile, pH-sensitive platform that combines selective anticancer efficacy with low toxicity to healthy cells alongside ancillary antibacterial and antioxidant properties suitable for multimodal therapy.
Somatic mutations demonstrated that the mutation rate of Cluster B was higher than that of Cluster A. In addition, candidate drugs for two clusters of patients were predicted, with Lapatinib, Doramapimod, and SCH772984 may be potential drugs for Cluster A patients. Luminespib, Staurosporine, and Dasatinib may be more suitable for Cluster B patients. The study provides a reference for guiding the clinical treatment of BLCA patients.
In patients treated with HER2-based neoadjuvant therapy, quantitative analysis of the readily available pretreatment HER2/CEP17 ratio by FISH is predictive of pCR.
Tumors that express HER2 are susceptible to HER2-targeted therapies, which include inhibitory antibodies such as trastuzumab and pertuzumab, as well as small inhibitor molecules such as lapatinib and tucatinib. Moreover, our detection technology can discriminate between soluble HER2 and membrane-bound HER2, enabling precise identification of the latter. This advancement opens up the possibility of introducing HER2 detection as a highly accurate and quantitative liquid biopsy method for detecting HER2 in blood, in full-length forms, offering new avenues for non-invasive diagnostics, patients monitoring, and early prediction of therapy.
