Site-specific neoepitope induction by RNA editing reprograms tumor immunogenicity. (PubMed, Front Immunol)
These findings provide proof-of-concept that site-directed RNA editing can be used to reprogram tumor immunogenicity by generating defined neoantigen-like epitopes from shared tumor-associated antigens. This strategy may expand neoantigen-based immunotherapy beyond tumors with high mutational burden and warrants further investigation for clinical translation.

Targeting non-canonical antigens unlocks functional T-cell responses in renal cell carcinoma. (PubMed, J Immunother Cancer)
Our work is the first to demonstrate that non-canonical antigens drive immunogenicity in low-mutation RCC, thereby resolving a key question in cancer immunology-how tumors with low mutational burden can provoke robust T-cell responses.

Antigen Spreading via Localized Administration Enhances Adoptive TCR-T Cell Therapy in Pancreatic Cancer. (PubMed, Adv Sci (Weinh))
Meanwhile, cDC1-mediated antigen spreading induced by ILvax enabled the expansion of adoptive TCR-T while shifting TCR-T metabolism toward oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). Localized tumor administration with ILvax simultaneously enhances the functionality of both endogenous CD8+ T cells and adoptive TCR-T cells, offering a clinically translatable collaborative strategy against pancreatic cancer.

Evaluation of Prognostic Factors and Outcomes in Primary versus Secondary Myeloid Sarcoma. (PubMed, Hum Pathol)
Outcomes appear to be influenced by an interplay of disease context, clonal architecture, and therapeutic strategy rather than individual mutations alone, underscoring the need for integrated molecular profiling and prospective studies to guide management. This study highlights that MS with MR mutations may follow different cellular pathways to evolution.

Case Report: Tumor regression and neurological recovery in paraplegia from POLD1-mutated hepatocellular carcinoma treated with targeted immunotherapy and electroacupuncture. (PubMed, Front Immunol)
Immunotherapy with atezolizumab (1200 mg every 3 weeks [Q3W]) combined with targeted therapy with bevacizumab (600 mg Q3W) was initiated in July 2021.A substantial temporal gap of approximately 21 months followed, after which electroacupuncture-based rehabilitation (5-Hz continuous-wave, stimulating Jiaji acupoints, Zusanli, etc) was started in May 2023. Targeted immunotherapy combined with electroacupuncture may influence neural remodeling by modulating a pro-reparative inflammatory microenvironment, which could potentially support functional reconstruction in patients with spinal metastases. However, there is no direct evidence that immunotherapy accelerates neural recovery, and these observations should be interpreted as hypothesis-generating findings requiring rigorous testing in prospective studies.

Immune biomarker landscape and fusion partner-phenotype associations in thoracic and head-and-neck NUT carcinoma. (PubMed, Front Immunol)
The predominance of PD-L1 negativity together with MSS/low-TMB features suggests a generally immunologically "cold" phenotype in most reported tumors, while exploratory fusion partner-specific enrichment patterns may help refine diagnostic suspicion and generate hypotheses for future biomarker-guided stratification. These findings provide a translational basis for rare-cancer immunobiology research and for the rational design of biomarker-integrated prospective studies.

Robust response to pembrolizumab in Temozolomide-Associated Hypermutated and Microsatellite Instability-High Functional Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumor. (PubMed, Oncologist)
We present a case of a 68-year-old woman with metastatic functional PanNET (VIPoma) who developed a treatment-associated hypermutated, microsatellite instability-high (MSIhigh) phenotype following capecitabine-temozolomide (CAPTEM) therapy. Treatment with pembrolizumab resulted in a robust clinical, biochemical, and radiographic response. This case highlights dynamic genomic evolution in PanNETs and underscores the importance of serial molecular profiling in guiding therapeutic decisions.
