AcceleRET Lung: A Study of Pralsetinib Versus Standard of Care for First-Line Treatment of Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) (clinicaltrials.gov)
P3, N=223, Terminated, Hoffmann-La Roche | Completed --> Terminated; Early termination of the study resulted from organizational and commercial decisions that led to the discontinuation of pralsetinib's global marketing and development in all territories (excluding US and Greater China).

Advances in immunotherapy for thyroid malignancies: from molecular targets to clinical outcomes. (PubMed, Front Med (Lausanne))
Success in this arena will hinge on utilitarian biomarker-based cohort selection, the discovery of fresh immunogenic epitopes, and the meticulous design of synergistic treatment combinations. The synergistic leverage of genomic, transcriptomic, and immune landscape dissection, coupled with cutting-edge engineered lymphocyte platforms and engineered oncolytic vectors, may finally position immunotherapy as an unassailable pillar of bespoke medicine for advanced thyroid carcinomas.

Diagnostic Utility of Expression Imbalance in Idylla GeneFusion Assay for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer. (PubMed, J Mol Diagn)
One case showed an NOL10::ALK out-of-frame fusion with negative ALK immunohistochemistry and equivocal ALK FISH results. Because the expression imbalance method can detect novel fusions, we recommend its implementation with confirmation testing.

Molecular pathogenesis and therapeutic advances in RET fusion-positive papillary thyroid carcinoma. (PubMed, Pathol Res Pract)
Furthermore, the review elaborates on the clinical efficacy of highly selective RET inhibitors (selpercatinib and pralsetinib), including their breakthroughs in pediatric patients and radioactive iodine-refractory cases. Primary and acquired resistance mechanisms (on-target mutations, bypass activation) and corresponding strategies (next-generation inhibitors, combination therapies) are also analyzed. By integrating recent advances in basic and clinical research, this review provides a comprehensive reference for the precision diagnosis and treatment, mechanistic investigation, and drug development for RET fusion-positive PTC.

RET Fusion-Positive Lung Adenocarcinoma: Partner-Specific Clinicopathological Characteristics, Co-Mutation Profiles, and Implications for Targeted and Immunotherapy. (PubMed, Lung Cancer)
RET fusion-positive LUAD comprises biologically heterogeneous subsets defined by fusion partners. KIF5B-RET tend to occur at earlier stages, whereas non-KIF5B are more frequently associated with CDKN2A co-mutations and may derive greater benefit from selective RET inhibition. Immunochemotherapy demonstrates comparable efficacy regardless of fusion partner, highlighting the need for partner-specific therapeutic strategies in RET fusion-positive LUAD.
