Tumoral Melanosis: A Benign Mimicker of Malignant Disease. (PubMed, Cureus)
During treatment with nivolumab, ipilimumab, cisplatin, and temozolomide, he developed multiple bluish macule-like lesions on the retroauricular region, neck, and anterior chest, surrounded by vitiligo-like halos. This case underscores the importance of biopsy for new pigmented lesions arising during melanoma immunotherapy. Recognizing tumoral melanosis is essential to avoid misinterpretation as disease progression and to guide appropriate clinical management.

Safety and Efficacy of Nivolumab Plus Ipilimumab in Microsatellite Instability-High/Mismatch Repair-Deficient Colorectal Cancer: A Systematic Review. (PubMed, Clin Oncol (R Coll Radiol))
Nivolumab plus ipilimumab is an effective and relatively well-tolerated option for MSI-H/dMMR CRC, offering significant clinical benefit across disease stages. Ongoing trials and longer follow-up are warranted to optimise dosing, identify predictive biomarkers, and refine patient selection.

A Case of Lynch Syndrome with MLH1 Gene Mutation Identified by Comprehensive Genomic Profiling (PubMed, Gan To Kagaku Ryoho)
Treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors(ipilimumab plus nivolumab)was initiated. As of 4 years and 3 months post-surgery, tumor shrinkage has been sustained, with no evidence of new malignancies, recurrence, or metastasis. Given the presence of multiple colorectal cancers, a history of gynecologic malignancy, and a family history of gastrointestinal cancers, this case illustrates the importance of early consideration of hereditary tumors and highlights the clinical utility of genomic medicine.

A randomized phase II study: CRS207/GVAX plus anti-PD1 and anti-CTLA4 recruits mesothelin- and mKRAS-specific T cells into PDAC. (PubMed, Cancer Immunol Res)
High myeloid and Treg signatures correlated with poor responses. We conclude that GVAX/CRS-207 plus nivolumab and ipilimumab successfully generates and expands T-cell clones specific to mesothelin and mutant KRAS within the PDAC TME but immunotherapy-induced myeloid-cell enrichment remains a barrier to greater efficacy.

ROSE12, a novel anti-CTLA-4 FcγRs binding-enhanced antibody activated by extracellular adenosine triphosphate, shows tumor-selective regulatory T-cell depletion and antitumor efficacy without systemic immune activation. (PubMed, J Immunother Cancer)
These findings support the clinical development of ROSE12 as a tumor-selective Treg-depleting immunotherapy with potential efficacy in programmed cell death protein-1/PD-L1 therapy-resistant patients. The favorable safety profile was attributed to the ATP-dependent binding mechanism that restricts activity to the high-ATP tumor microenvironment. ROSE12 is currently being evaluated in phase I clinical trials (NCT05907980).
