The study highlights a pro-metastatic ELANE + neutrophil subpopulation, with RELB acting as its primary transcriptional regulator. The RELB signature may serve as a biomarker for prognosis and treatment response prediction, indicating a potential target for precision treatment in EGFR wildtype LUAD.
Secondary endpoints include duration of response, progression-free survival, disease control, occurrence of treatment-emergent adverse events, and health-related quality of life. Recruitment is ongoing in 13 countries globally.Clinical trial registration http://www.clinicaltrials.gov identifier is NCT06581432.
Non-responders to durvalumab and supraclavicular nodal involvement were significant predictors of brain metastasis in NSCLC treated with CCRT followed by durvalumab. These findings support risk-adapted CNS surveillance strategies in high-risk patients.
Treatment was then switched to the ALK inhibitor alectinib, and the patient again achieved a partial response. This case suggests that chemotherapy may enrich ALK fusion-positive tumour cell clones through selective pressure. These findings highlight the clinical importance of repeated genetic testing after disease progression and provide new insights for post-resistance treatment strategies.
Recently developed agents such as amivantamab and mobocertinib have improved response rates, yet challenges related to tolerability, CNS penetration, and durability of benefit persist. Early-phase clinical trials, including the WU-KONG series, have reported promising clinical efficacy, including objective response rates ranging from 44-60% in previously treated patients and meaningful activity in treatment-naïve cohorts. The tolerability profile of the drug seems manageable, with diarrhea, rash, and stomatitis among the most commonly observed adverse events; these, however, tend to be milder compared with other agents targeting EGFR Ex20ins.

In this large real-world cohort of advanced NSCLC patients treated with EGFR-TKI, female sex, stage IIIb (vs. stage IV) disease, adenocarcinoma histology, EGFR exon 19 deletion, and the use of EGFR-TKI as first-line therapy were independently associated with longer DoT and/or OS. These factors may help identify patients more likely to derive durable benefit from EGFR-TKIs and support risk stratification and treatment optimization in EGFR-mutant NSCLC.
Zongertinib is the first oral TKI approved for HER2-mutant NSCLC and will provide patients with a convenient, tolerable and effective treatment option in an area of significant unmet need. Next steps include its potential transition to a first-line setting, identification of additional indications, and development of novel combination regimens.
