THE INFLUENCE OF AGE-INDEPENDENT SOMATIC DRIVER ALTERATIONS ON CLINICAL OUTCOMES IN PEDIATRIC AND YOUNG ADULT THYROID CANCER. (PubMed, Eur Thyroid J)
While prognosis steadily improved with age, mutation status remained the dominant factor determining outcomes. Somatic drivers offer prognostic insights independent of age in paediatric and young adult DTC, establishing a molecular framework for precision risk stratification that complements traditional clinical staging and age-based assessments.

Selpercatinib-induced renal tubular damage resulting in symptomatic hyponatremia and polyuria: a case report. (PubMed, Cancer Chemother Pharmacol)
Our report indicates an association between selpercatinib plasma concentration and renal tubular damage, and emphasizes the importance of recognizing selpercatinib-induced tubular injury. This report also provides guidance for the management of these renal manifestations and for rechallenge guided by TDM, highlighting a potential role for TDM in dose determinations after selpercatinib-induced renal toxicity.

Tumor Lysis Syndrome Induced by Selpercatinib in Rearranged During Transfection (RET) Fusion-Positive Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer. (PubMed, Cureus)
Selpercatinib was discontinued, and treatment with intravenous hydration, febuxostat, and furosemide was initiated. This case highlights that potent targeted therapy can trigger TLS even in the absence of conventional risk factors. Early recognition and aggressive management are essential to mitigate risk and allow continuation of effective treatment.

Optimizing communication for ultrafast lung cancer biomarker testing: the UTOPIA pilot study. (PubMed, Lung Cancer)
An ultrafast biomarker testing workflow for lung cancer, enabled by MTB-driven triage and structured team communication, can reliably generate comprehensive molecular reports within 72 h. This approach may reduce TAT-related treatment delays and support timely biomarker-guided therapy for patients with NSCLC.

Cerebrospinal fluid ctDNA clarifies clonal divergence: leptomeningeal flare of EGFR-mutant disease after switch to selpercatinib for acquired RET fusion. (PubMed, J Liq Biopsy)
A 67-year-old woman with EGFR exon 19-deleted adenocarcinoma received afatinib followed by long-term osimertinib. CSF liquid biopsy provided actionable, compartment-specific genotyping that outperformed cytology and guided effective retreatment. Incorporating CSF ctDNA into routine evaluation may improve therapeutic alignment across sanctuary sites; when feasible, maintaining EGFR blockade should be considered when CNS involvement is suspected in EGFR-mutated NSCLC in routine practice.

Low-order assemblies drive oncogenic RTK fusion signaling without condensation. (PubMed, bioRxiv)
A panel of various other cancer-driving RTK fusions showed that low-order multimerization was universal across fusions, whereas mesoscale condensation was rare and did not correlate with signaling. Our results suggest that low-order fusion multimerization is sufficient to drive its phosphorylation, which is necessary and sufficient to trigger downstream oncogenic signaling.

Integrated Multi-Omics Approaches for Predicting Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Response in NSCLC - Insights From Genomics, Proteomics, and Metabolomics. (PubMed, Lung Cancer (Auckl))
Although promising, most biomarkers require prospective validation in large, uniformly treated cohorts. Integrative strategies-particularly when combined with AI-driven analytics-hold potential to refine patient stratification and guide clinical use of ICIs in NSCLC.
