The proportion of the patients benefitting of the treatment and its safety profile justify larger, controlled studies to further investigate the added role of combining cabozantinib with metronomic temozolomide. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT04893785.

Using the IsoTar target prediction tool, we identified STAT3 as a key regulator and confirmed STAT3 protein downregulation upon transfection with miR-411ed. We further investigated the effect of miR-411ed in vivo, observing a reduction in tumor size with miR-411ed in combination with Osimertinib but not with miR-411ed or Osimertinib treatment alone, confirming the effectiveness of miR-411ed in TKI response.

Additionally, at 60 min postinjection, it showed satisfactory radioactive uptake in lung cancer (tumor-to-lung ratio [TLR]: 4.87 [range, 3.12-7.55]), which positively correlated with c-Met expression (R = 0.71, P = 0.034). Overall, [68Ga]Ga-NOTA-PEG2-Glc-MetP shows favorable pharmacokinetics and a strong correlation with c-Met expression, supporting its potential as a promising PET imaging agent.

Temab-A monotherapy demonstrated antitumor activity and a manageable safety profile in patients with advanced GEA. The findings support further clinical development of Temab-A, particularly in combination with other agents to improve outcomes for patients with 2L+ GEA.

ZM fusion was associated with a worse prognosis in both astrocytoma (OS p < 0.001, PFS p < 0.001) and glioblastoma (OS, p = 0.252; PFS, p = 0.010) patients. We highlight the utmost relevance of ZM fusion as an adverse prognostic factor in astrocytoma (11/382, 2.88%) and glioblastoma grade 4 (11/401, 2.74%) patients and suggest that the grading of these tumors should be refined.

This study provides the first direct evidence from ex vivo fresh TIL assays using human NSCLC clinical specimens that amivantamab can activate immune responses. EGFR and MET expression may serve as potential biomarkers for amivantamab-induced immune responses.

EMT was induced by transfecting HCC827 lung cancer cells with the Snail gene, followed by MET induction via dexamethasone...Furthermore, P-gp membrane expression increased synergistically with the continuous induction of EMT/MET. This study demonstrated that P-gp expression and activity increase at both the EMT and MET stages in cancer metastasis, suggesting that different mechanisms may be involved at each stage.

Furthermore, analysis of lymph node and distant (liver and peritoneal) metastases revealed significantly higher c-MET and NECTIN4 expression in the metastatic setting. In conclusion, TROP-2 is highly expressed in most PDACs, independent of clinicopathological and genomic parameters, and inversely correlating with PD-L1, making TROP-2 an ideal ADC target.

Potential of AI and biomarker data integration is transformative, they possess many challenges on data standardization, interpretability, clinical validation, and ethical matters. Digital innovation and biological insights are still converging, though, offering faster, more precise, more patient specific lung cancer diagnosis.

The zLiverMet model successfully mimics intrahepatic metastasis and highlights c-Met as a driver of liver tropism. This zebrafish-based model offers an 'organism-on-a-chip' platform that is rapid, imageable and scalable-bridging in vitro assays and in vivo models for mechanistic and therapeutic studies of liver metastasis.

This study identifies MET as a critical therapeutic target of luteolin in pancreatic cancer, providing mechanistic insights into luteolin's anti-cancer effects via the MET/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway and supporting its potential clinical application.
