Characterizing therapeutic target antigen expression in anaplastic carcinoma of the ovary. (PubMed, Gynecol Oncol Rep)
FOLR1 expression in the two cases was weak and below currently used clinical cutoffs for mirvetuximab soravtansine eligibility...Only a subset of anaplastic carcinomas of the ovary express targetable tumor antigens at low levels, suggesting that these may have limited benefit from antibody-drug conjugates. Likewise, due to mismatch repair proficiency and low tumor mutational burden, immunotherapy is unlikely to be effective in this rare disease.

Antibody conjugation of paclitaxel enables aqueous compatibility and enhances tumor-targeted efficacy in vitro and in vivo. (PubMed, Front Pharmacol)
These findings establish hRS7-PTX as an effective, solvent-free strategy for targeted PTX delivery that expands the therapeutic index of this widely used drug. The combination of selective tumor targeting, improved tolerability, and robust antitumor activity supports the further development of hRS7-PTX for the treatment of TROP2-positive malignancies.

The Importance of 5-hmC Expression Loss in Diagnosis of Mesothelioma and the Relationship Between TROP2 Expression and Histomorphological Parameters in Mesotheliomas. (PubMed, Int J Surg Pathol)
No significant association was found between TROP2 expression and other histological parameters.ConclusionLoss of ≥50% nuclear 5-hmC is a sensitive and specific marker for distinguishing mesothelioma from RMH. High TROP2 expression in tumors with high mitotic figures and higher nuclear and tumor grade suggests these patients may benefit from sacituzumab govitecan therapy.

TROP2/claudin program mediates immune exclusion to impede checkpoint blockade in breast cancer. (PubMed, J Immunother Cancer)
This study defines a new mechanism of barrier-mediated immune exclusion in cancer controlled by TROP2-dependent tight junctions. This mechanism drives tumor progression but can be targeted via TROP2-directed therapy to activate antitumor immunity and enhance immunotherapy response.

Sequential Use of Trastuzumab Deruxtecan and Sacituzumab Govitecan in Patients with Breast Cancer: A Pharmacological Approach to Support the Clinical Rationale. (PubMed, Drugs)
By contrast, sacituzumab govitecan is a TROP-2-targeted ADC conjugated through a hydrolysable CL2A linker to SN-38, the active metabolite of irinotecan. Clinically, trastuzumab deruxtecan has shown substantial efficacy in both HER2-positive and HER2-low breast cancer, whereas sacituzumab govitecan has demonstrated efficacy across triple-negative and hormone receptor-positive/HER2-negative breast cancers. Collectively, these agents highlight how variations in target antigen, linker chemistry, and payload potency impact ADC activity, therapeutic index, and potential strategies for sequential treatment in advanced breast cancer.

Preclinical activity of SHR-A1921, a novel antibody-drug conjugate targeting trophoblast cell-surface antigen2 (Trop-2) in prostate cancer. (PubMed, Front Pharmacol)
SHR-A1921 is a promising Trop-2-targeted ADC that leverages innovative technology to deliver potent antitumor activity against Trop-2-expressing prostate cancer cells, with an acceptable safety profile observed in preclinical studies. These results highlight the promising clinical potential of SHR-A1921 as a therapeutic option for prostate cancer patients with Trop-2-positive tumors.

Cost-Effectiveness Analysis of Sacituzumab Govitecan Versus Chemotherapy for the Treatment of Metastatic Triple-Negative Breast Cancer With Different Trophoblast Cell-Surface Antigen 2 Expression Levels in Chinese Mainland. (PubMed, Value Health Reg Issues)
In conclusion, although SG is clinically effective for mTNBC, its high cost makes it economically unfeasible in mainland China. A substantial price reduction is essential for it to become a viable option, enabling more patients to benefit from its therapeutic potential.

Characterization of TROP-2 bispecific T cell engagers for immunotherapy of triple negative breast and bladder cancer. (PubMed, Front Immunol)
Thus, TROP-2-directed bsAbs can achieve effective tumor cell killing without over dependence on antigen density, in contrast to ADC-based approaches. Our results support further development of TROP-2×CD3 bsAbs as immunotherapy for solid tumors with heterogeneous or low TROP-2 expression.

Multi-omics reveals key molecular and cellular features of advanced small cell lung cancers associated with distinct therapeutic opportunities. (PubMed, Genome Med)
We showed that methylation of the most common source of tumor tissue in the clinical setting can stratify SCLCs with distinct clinical outcomes and potentially tailored therapeutic options. Methylation can characterize the intrinsic and extrinsic heterogeneity of SCLCs and fuel the discovery of novel therapeutic vulnerabilities to help bridge the gap between research and clinical application to improve care for SCLC patients.
