    AbstractMetastatic relapse after treatment is the leading cause of cancer mortality, and known resistance mechanisms are missing for most treatments administered to patients. To bridge this gap, we analyze a pan-cancer cohort (META-PRISM) of 1,031 refractory metastatic tumors profiled via whole-exome and transcriptome sequencing. META-PRISM tumors, particularly prostate, bladder, and pancreatic…

    • A cohort of 1,031 tumors resistant to SOC were analyzed by WES & RNAseq. Mutational signatures were observed in platinum treated pts. MSI & high TMB found in 3% & 13% of refractory metastatic cancer patients, what is #imunotherapy value for such patients? https://t.co/7bj1SleiFV https://t.co/jRaUbExt1V

    Background Liquid biopsies and the dynamic tracking of somatic mutations within circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) can provide insight into the dynamics of cancer evolution and the intra-tumour heterogeneity that fuels treatment resistance. However, identifying and tracking dynamic changes in somatic copy number alterations (SCNAs), which have been associated with poor outcome and metastasis, using…

    • Cancer-associated cachexia increases morbidity & mortality in cancer. NSCLC with cachexia have inflammatory signaling & EMT pathways, upregulated MAGEA6 & ADAMTS3. Proteomic analysis supports the l therapeutic relevance of targeting GDF15 in cachexia. https://t.co/L6iaFE2LnU https://t.co/q4VMtomBP5

    • A must read: @CharleSwanton last paper. Packed with exceptional & actionable data. E.g. (1) histological spread through airspace = risk of intra-thoracic recurrence, (2) pre-operative ctDNA detection is associated with extra-thoracic recurrence. https://t.co/71M0pKGsB3 https://t.co/WKCPsWd03A

    Summary:. The shift in cancer therapy from broadly cytotoxic agents toward “personalized” treatments that target specific alterations in each patient’s tumor requires diagnostic pathology approaches that are quantitative and biospecimen-friendly. Novel multiplexed antibody-based imaging technologies can measure single-cell expression of over 60 proteins in intact tumor sections and hold promise…
