A RANKL-derived Peptide Inhibits RSPO3-LGR4-Wnt Signaling and Lung Adenocarcinoma in Mice. (PubMed, Anticancer Res)
These findings demonstrate MHP1-AcN as a novel LGR4 antagonist that inhibits RSPO3-LGR4-Wnt signaling, tumor growth, and metastatic potential in lung adenocarcinoma, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic agent targeting this pathway.

Synergistic effects of denosumab and BMP-2 on bone regeneration in critical-sized femoral defects in ovariectomized rats. (PubMed, J Mater Sci Mater Med)
Moreover, DNB/BMP-2 significantly improved torsional stiffness and maximum compressive force versus either treatment alone (all P < 0.05). The findings demonstrate that systemic DNB combined with local BMP-2 rapidly promotes femoral metaphyseal bone regeneration in osteoporotic rats.

Targeting RANKL-independent osteoclastogenesis overcomes denosumab resistance in models of ER+ breast cancer bone metastasis. (PubMed, J Clin Invest)
Pharmacological inhibition of CARM1 (TP-064) effectively suppressed osteoclastogenesis and bone metastasis in denosumab-resistant models. These findings revealed a targetable resistance mechanism and provided a clinically actionable strategy to overcome microenvironment-driven metastasis through dual targeting of tumor and bone niches.

Integrated Transcriptomic, Proteomic, and Pharmacologic Profiling of 2D and 3D Patient-Derived GCTB Cell Lines Reveals Culture-Dependent Drug Response Determinants. (PubMed, Proteomics)
Giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB) is an intermediate bone neoplasm defined by recurrent H3F3A mutations and limited systemic treatment options beyond denosumab...Functionally, 3D culture generally reduced sensitivity to many agents while preserving compound-dependent vulnerabilities. These results establish culture dimensionality as a key determinant of therapeutic susceptibility in GCTB PDCs and support incorporating proteome-informed 3D models into translational pipelines to prioritize clinically relevant drug candidates and biomarkers.

Giant Cell Tumor of the Cranial Vault: A Rare Frontotemporal Case With Complete Neurological Recovery and Narrative Review. (PubMed, Cureus)
This case is discussed within the context of a comprehensive narrative review highlighting the distinct biological behavior of calvarial GCTB compared to skull-base lesions, the critical importance of achieving gross total resection, and the emerging role of molecular diagnosis (H3F3A G34W mutation) and adjuvant therapies including denosumab. Calvarial GCTB offers superior surgical accessibility and prognosis compared to skull-base counterparts, with appropriately aggressive resection typically achieving cure without need for radiotherapy, thereby avoiding the well-documented risk of radiation-induced malignant transformation.

Clinical Outcomes of the POPCORN Study: Pharmacodynamics of Pre-Operative PD1 CheckpOint Blockade and Receptor Activator of NF-κB Ligand (RANKL) Inhibition in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)-A Phase 1B/2 Trial. (PubMed, Asia Pac J Clin Oncol)
Our results support the feasibility of neoadjuvant systemic therapy in resectable NSCLC and explore the novel combination of nivolumab with denosumab. CD8 T-cell infiltration correlates with pathological response, warranting ongoing translational research to better understand patient selection for such novel combinations.
