Association between HER2 overexpression and recurrence rate in patients with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer following anthracycline-based intravesical instillation therapy (PubMed, Zhonghua Bing Li Xue Za Zhi)
The impact of HER2 expression on the recurrence-free survival (RFS) of patients with intravesical anthracycline (epirubicin or pirarubicin) instillation after transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) was evaluated. In the patients treated with intravesical anthracycline instillation, HER2 high-expression was associated with a shorter RFS (P<0.001). HER2 high-expression seems to be not only associated with worse clinicopathological features of NMIBC but also a poor RFS in NMIBC patients treated with anthracycline instillation after TURBT.

Synergistic Chemoimmunotherapy Using Pirarubicin-Loaded Tumor-Derived Extracellular Vesicles for Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC). (PubMed, Eur J Pharm Sci)
In addition, compared with the control group, the tumor volume in the THP@TEVs group was reduced by approximately 62.1% (p<0.001, n=5) and no histopathological changes were observed in major organs (such as heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys) upon H&E staining. This study provides a precise, low-toxicity chemotherapy and immune synergistic strategy for TNBC and expands the potential of TEVs in tumor therapy.

Malignant Glomus Tumor of the Uterus With Cyclin D1 Expression and CARMN::NOTCH2 Fusion. (PubMed, Int J Gynecol Pathol)
The patient underwent 4 courses of chemotherapy with ifosfamide and pirarubicin. The findings from this case highlight the morphologic and immunohistochemical features that are diagnostic of this rare uterine tumor. Furthermore, this report summarizes the morphologic criteria for malignancy and the key points for its differential diagnosis.

Overcoming multidrug resistance in gastrointestinal cancers with a CDH17-targeted ADC conjugated to a DNA topoisomerase inhibitor. (PubMed, Cell Rep Med)
Additionally, 7MW4911 showed favorable pharmacokinetics and a highest non-severely toxic dose (HNSTD) exceeding 20 mg/kg in cynomolgus monkeys, underscoring its promising safety profile. Together, these findings position 7MW4911 as a promising ADC candidate capable of enhancing therapeutic outcomes in GI cancers.

Identification of antibody-drug conjugate payloads which are substrates of ATP-binding cassette drug efflux transporters. (PubMed, bioRxiv)
All the pyrrolobenzodiazepines tested - SJG136, SGD-1882, SG2057, and SG3199 - were substrates of P-gp, ABCG2, and MRP1. The modified anthracyclines nemorubicin and its metabolite PNU-159682 were poorly transported by both ABCB1 and ABCG2 and displayed nanomolar to picomolar toxicity. Further, we found that the efficacy of the recently FDA-approved ADC mirvetuximab soravtansine, which has DM4 as the toxic payload, was decreased in cell lines with overexpression of P-gp. Several commonly used ADC payloads can be effluxed from cells by ABC transporters which may lead to transporter-mediated drug resistance in patients. Future ADCs should be developed using payloads that are not substrates of ABC transporters.

Screening and identification of protein interacting with goose astrovirus. (PubMed, Front Cell Infect Microbiol)
Further prediction of the binding residue sites revealed that seven residues of the GoAstV-P2 protein (THR124, ILE22, VAL24, TRP51, PRO66, GLN100, and VAL125) and twelve residues of the HSPA5 protein (ARG2, HIS3, LEU4, LEU6, ALA7, LEU8, LEU9, LEU10, LEU11, ASP411, VAL413, and LEU415) may be involved in the interaction between these two proteins. Our research results have preliminarily elucidated the interaction mechanisms between viral proteins and receptors, facilitating exploration from multiple angles of the roles of candidate protein in the process of GoAstV infecting host cells. This provides a theoretical basis for further identification of GoAstV receptors and clarification of its infection mechanisms.
