Patients received either pemetrexed plus cisplatin (control group, n=56) or the same regimen with osimertinib (experimental group, n=56). The incidence of adverse reactions did not differ significantly between groups (P>0.05). In this retrospective cohort, the addition of osimertinib to platinum-based chemotherapy was associated with improved disease control and prolonged survival, along with greater reductions in angiogenesis-related and tumor marker levels, without increasing treatment-related toxicity.

He received afatinib as frontline treatment and showed a partial response; however, the right lung lesion progressed after 14 months of treatment...Because EGFR testing using resected tissue showed only the original mutation, we switched his regimen to pemetrexed and carboplatin...Although an association between MET amplification and rapidly progressive lung cancer has been predicted previously, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the potential contribution of other mutations, such as those in RNA-binding motif 10, during MET-driven rapid progression. Our report highlights the importance of more active utilization of molecular profiling for the emergence of resistance during tyrosine kinase inhibitor use and the early identification of MET amplification and timely initiation of MET-targeted therapy, such as MET inhibitors in combination with EGFR-TKIs, to potentially mitigate rapid disease progression and clinical deterioration.

However, epcoritamab induced a rapid systemic response along with partial neurological improvement. This case highlights the potential role of bispecific antibody therapy in refractory DLBCL with CNS involvement, an area of significant unmet clinical need.

Based on the above results, the patient received chemotherapy with carboplatin and pemetrexed disodium combined with targeted therapy using the EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) almonertinib mesylate tablets. The two cases reported in this paper demonstrate that targeted and immune treatment plans based on the tissue of origin of the tumor can serve as a clinical option for patients with CUP. These findings may provide new information and references for clinical decision-making in the management of CUP.

He received five cycles of first-line chemotherapy with pemetrexed and cisplatin (PP regimen), which was followed by sequential maintenance therapy with nivolumab (200 mg, Q3W). For patients with PD-L1-high advanced NSCLC, nivolumab monotherapy can induce deep and durable immune responses, enabling long-term survival with a manageable safety profile, even in elderly patients with multiple comorbidities. This case provides compelling real-world evidence for the remarkable efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors.

Overall survival data were immature (data maturity, 4%). The ACROSS2 trial provides the first prospective evidence supporting a genotype-directed, chemotherapy-targeted intensification approach favoring aumolertinib plus carboplatin-pemetrexed for this molecularly defined population.

In non-squamous (NSQ) NSCLC with PD-L1 ≥1%, pemetrexed-platinum plus single immunotherapy (SI), with maintenance pemetrexed plus anti-PD-(L)1, may be the most appropriate option...With increasing PD-L1 expression, chemo-immunotherapy [CT plus a single anti-PD-(L)1 antibody] was associated with durable clinical benefit. However, additional evidence is needed to compare continuous DI with other MT-containing strategies, particularly for progression-free survival in key subgroups.

Majority of patients received reduced intensity conditioning with Fludarabine-Melphalan +/-total body irradiation (n=32) and all had peripheral blood grafts with donor source being matched sibling in 22 (64.7%), unrelated donor in 9 (26.5%) [7 full HLA match, one 9/10 HLA match and one 8/10 HLA match] and haploidentical in 3 (8.8%)...The majority received calcineurin inhibitor + methotrexate (n=28) as Graft versus Host Disease (GVHD) prophylaxis...On last follow up, 15 (44.1%) patients are alive while 19 have died. Allo-SCT for myelofibrosis is associated with reasonable cure rates, however strategies to reduce graft failure and GVHD are required.

We report a case of radiation recall supraglottitis in a patient receiving maintenance pemetrexed and pembrolizumab for the treatment of metastatic lung adenocarcinoma. Despite being treated with high-dose intravenous steroids and interleukin-6 inhibitors, there was minimal clinical response. This report highlights the importance of recognising supraglottitis as a possible irAE in a patient who has had previous radiation treatment to the head and neck region.
