Mashup Score: 2PTEN Loss Expands the Histopathologic Diversity and Lineage Plasticity of Lung Cancers Initiated by Rb1/Trp53 Deletion - 1 year(s) ago
High-grade neuroendocrine tumors of the lung such as SCLC are recalcitrant cancers for which more effective systemic therapies are needed. Despite their histopathologic and molecular heterogeneity, they are generally treated as a single disease entity with similar chemotherapy regimens. Whereas marked clinical responses can be observed, they are short-lived. Inter- and intratumoral heterogeneity…

Mashup Score: 4Quantifying the Value of Multigene Testing in Resected Early Stage Lung Adenocarcinoma - 1 year(s) ago
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), each requiring testing for precision biomarkers, have recently been approved in the adjuvant setting. We assessed the potential value of multigene testing in early lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD).

Sitravatinib, a receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting TYRO3, AXL, MERTK receptors, and vascular epithelial growth factor receptor 2, can shift the tumor microenvironment toward an immunostimulatory state. Combining sitravatinib with checkpoint inhibitors (CPIs) may augment antitumor activity.

Mashup Score: 0Analysis of serious weight gain in patients using alectinib for ALK positive lung cancer - 1 year(s) ago
Alectinib is a standard of care treatment for metastatic anaplastic lymphoma kinase positive (ALK+) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Weight gain is an unexplored side effect reported in ∼10%. To prevent or intervene alectinib-induced weight gain, more insight in its extent and etiology is needed.

EMPOWER-Lung 3 Part 2 (NCT03409614), a double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 study, investigated cemiplimab (anti–PD-1) plus chemotherapy versus placebo plus chemotherapy in patients with advanced NSCLC without EGFR, ALK, or ROS1 aberrations, with either squamous or non-squamous histology, irrespective of PD-L1 levels. At primary analysis, after 16.4 months of follow-up, cemiplimab plus…

Despite the unprecedented rapid advances in cancer therapeutics development, drug resistance remains a clinical challenge in precision oncology. Resistance is diverse at various levels with inter- and intra-tumor heterogeneity. Targeted therapy resistance can largely be categorized into three classes, including pathway reactivation (re-engagement of original effectors, aka “on-target”…

Outcomes for patients with early stage non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remain dismal compared to other solid tumors. In the metastatic setting, immunotherapy has been the key driver of improved survival, but until recently, the role of immunotherapy in surgically resected NSCLC has been unclear. The IMpower010 study randomized 1280 patients with stage IB to IIIA NSCLC to either 1 year of the…
