MET Dependence Oversteps EGFR Dependence via Balancing Dimerization of the Receptor Tyrosine Kinases in Osimertinib-Resistant MET-Amplified, EGFR-Mutated Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer. (PubMed, Thorac Cancer)
MET amplification alters the balance of EGFR/MET/ERBB3 dimerization, leading to a shift in signaling dependence from EGFR to MET. These findings provide insight into therapeutic strategies for EGFR-mutated NSCLC.

A model of Helicobacter infection using an artificial liver constructed by a radial-flow bioreactor. (PubMed, Hum Cell)
These findings demonstrate that H. pylori can infect the 3D liver model and induce apoptosis and signaling alterations in hepatocytes, suggesting a potential pathological impact on the liver. Further studies are required to determine whether similar effects occur in the human liver in vivo.

First-line osimertinib in advanced EGFR-mutated NSCLC: real-world outcomes, clinicogenomic correlates, and oligoprogression management in a multicenter Spanish cohort. (PubMed, ESMO Real World Data Digit Oncol)
In routine practice, first-line osimertinib shows robust effectiveness but lower rwOS than expected and substantial post-progression attrition. These findings underscore the need for risk-adapted treatment strategies and support prospective evaluation of OPD management approaches, including integration of LAT alongside contemporary systemic options.

c-Met-targeted NIR-II imaging for precision management of oral squamous cell carcinoma and premalignant lesions. (PubMed, Theranostics)
On this basis, we developed IR788-Crizotinib, a c-Met-targeted near-infrared window-II (NIR-II) fluorescent probe, and evaluated its imaging performance in subcutaneous xenograft, 4-NQO-induced oral lesion, orthotopic tongue OSCC and lymph node metastasis mouse models...In cervical lymph nodes, it detected micro-metastatic foci as small as 342 μm, with 100% sensitivity. c-Met-targeted NIR-II imaging provides an integrated visualization strategy for premalignant lesion screening, primary tumor delineation and metastatic lymph node detection in OSCC, with translational potential for precision management of oral cancer.

The efficacy of targeted therapy in ALK-positive non-small-cell lung cancer patients and analysis of MET/PD-L1 expression status. (PubMed, Ther Adv Med Oncol)
Crizotinib showed no significant difference in progression-free survival (PFS) or overall survival (OS) between first-line and post-chemotherapy use (PFS: p = 0.803; OS: p = 0.761). For second-generation ALK-TKIs, first-line treatment had numerically longer PFS compared to post-chemotherapy (alectinib: 41 vs 24 months; ceritinib: 30 vs 8 months), but these differences were not statistically significant after adjustment (p = 0.120 and 0.284, respectively)...Among patients treated with alectinib, there appears to be a trend toward shorter PFS and OS in those with MET overexpression. In a limited number of matched samples, PD-L1 expression did not change significantly after TKI resistance, although a slight increase was observed.

Resistance to EGFR Inhibitors in NSCLC: Mechanistic Insights and Emerging Therapies. (PubMed, Int J Mol Sci)
EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have transformed management, with first-line osimertinib demonstrating a median progression-free survival (PFS) of 18.9 months and overall survival (OS) of 38.6 months in the FLAURA trial...Understanding these mechanisms is critical for optimizing patient outcomes and guiding personalized therapeutic approaches. This review discusses current strategies to delay or overcome resistance and highlights emerging therapeutic avenues with the potential to reshape the management of EGFR-mutant NSCLC.

Molecular and Clinical Determinants of Targeted Therapy Treatment in Biliary Tract Cancer. (PubMed, Clin Cancer Res)
This comprehensive molecular profiling study illustrates the real-world utility and limitations of targeted next-generation sequencing of BTC and affirms the use of precision medicine in patients with these diseases. Characterization of genomic heterogeneity and therapeutic resistance has the potential to inform ongoing drug development efforts for BTC.

Real-world prevalence of actionable genomic alterations detected by next-generation sequencing in non-small cell lung cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis. (PubMed, Clin Transl Oncol)
Rare actionable genomic alterations are recurrently identified in NGS-assessed NSCLC cohorts. These findings support the clinical value of broad genomic profiling, provide realistic expectations for diagnostic yield in routine practice, and may inform precision oncology implementation, molecular-testing pathways, and resource allocation.

Neurotrophic Keratitis Associated With Telisotuzumab Vedotin: A Case Report. (PubMed, Cornea)
This report describes the first documented case of NK associated with Teliso-V therapy. The temporal association between Teliso-V exposure, bilateral corneal hypoesthesia, persistent epithelial defects, and concurrent peripheral neuropathy suggests a potential neurotoxic mechanism related to the drug's monomethyl auristatin E payload. Clinicians should maintain a high index of suspicion for NK in patients receiving ADCs who present with painless visual decline and corneal epithelial disease. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment with cenegermin may facilitate corneal healing and prevent vision-threatening complications.
