PURPOSE: Therapy-related myeloid neoplasm (t-MN) is a life-threatening complication of autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (aPBSCT) for Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). Although previous studies have reported an association between clonal hematopoiesis (CH) in the infused PBSC product and subsequent post-aPBSCT risk of t-MN in patients with non-HL, information about patients with HL treated with aPBSCT is not available. METHODS: We constructed a retrospective cohort of 321 patients with HL transplanted at a median age of 34 years (range, 18-71)...

PURPOSE: The multicenter, open-label, randomized phase 2 NCI-9944 study (NCT02595892) demonstrated that addition of ATR inhibitor (ATRi) berzosertib to gemcitabine increased progression-free survival (PFS) compared to gemcitabine alone (hazard ratio [HR]=0.57, one-sided log-rank P = .044, which met the one-sided significance level of 0.1 used for sample size calculation). METHODS: We report here the final overall survival (OS) analysis and biomarker correlations (ATM expression by immunohistochemistry, mutational signature 3 and a genomic biomarker of replication stress) along with post-hoc exploratory analyses to adjust for crossover from gemcitabine to gemcitabine/berzosertib...

INTRODUCTION: Immunotherapy by blocking immune checkpoints programmed death/ligand (PD1/PDL1) and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4(CTLA4) has emerged as new therapeutic targets in cancer. However, their efficacy has been limited due to resistance. A new- checkpoint V-domain Ig-containing suppressor of T cell activation (VISTA) has appeared, but the use of its inhibition effect in combination with antibodies targeting PDL1/PD1and CTLA4 has not been reported in ovarian cancer...

Wnt/β-Catenin signaling pathway in hepatocellular carcinoma: pathogenic role and therapeutic target.
Zekun Zhao, Tenglu Cui, Fengxian Wei, Zhiming Zhou, Yuan Sun, Chaofeng Gao, Xiaodong Xu, Huihan Zhang
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary malignant liver tumor and one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide. The Wnt/β-Catenin signaling pathway is a highly conserved pathway involved in several biological processes, including the improper regulation that leads to the tumorigenesis and progression of cancer. New studies have found that abnormal activation of the Wnt/β-Catenin signaling pathway is a major cause of HCC tumorigenesis, progression, and resistance to therapy...

BACKGROUND: Racial disparities in oncological outcomes resulting from differences in social determinants of health (SDOH) and tumour biology are well described in prostate cancer (PCa) but similar inequities exist in bladder (BCa) and renal cancers (RCCs). Precision medicine (PM) aims to provide personalized treatment based on individual patient characteristics and has the potential to reduce these inequities in GU cancers. OBJECTIVE: This article aims to review the current evidence outlining racial disparities in GU cancers and explore studies demonstrating improved oncological outcomes when PM is applied to racially diverse patient populations...

Prostate cancer remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related death in the world. There have been significant advances in chemotherapy, hormonal therapy and targeted therapy options for patients with castrate-resistant disease. However, these systemic treatments are often associated with unwanted toxicities. Targeted therapy with radiopharmaceuticals has become of key interest to limit systemic toxicity and provides a more precision oncology approach to treatment. Strontium-89, Samarium-153 EDTMP and Radium-223 have been trialled with mixed results...

Treatment options for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer include use of radioligand therapy with 177Lu-PSMA-617. 177Lu-PSMA-617 is used to selectively target prostate cancer cells by targeting prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA); however, PSMA is also expressed on lacrimal glands among other tissues. Herein, we report on a case of a CTCAE v5 grade 3 dry eye event with concomitant blepharitis following administration of 177Lu-PSMA-617. He was managed with neomycin-polymyxin-dexamethasone 3...

Platinum-based chemotherapy plus PD-1 axis blockade is the standard of care in the front-line treatment of extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). Despite the robust and consistent increase of long-term survival with PD-1 axis inhibition, the magnitude of the benefit from immunotherapy appears lower as compared to other solid tumors. Several immune evasive mechanisms have been shown to be prominently altered in human SCLC, including, among others, T cell exclusion, downregulation of components of the MHC-class I antigen processing and presentation machinery, or upregulation of macrophage inhibitory checkpoints...

BACKGROUND: Genomic and molecular alterations are increasingly important in cancer diagnosis, and scientific advances are opening new treatment avenues. Precision oncology (PO) uses a patient's genomic profile to determine optimal treatment, promising fewer side effects and higher success rates. Within PO, tumor-agnostic (TA) therapies target genomic alterations irrespective of tumor location. However, traditional value frameworks and approval pathways pose challenges which may limit patient access to PO therapies...

Molecularly targeted therapy for receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) has faced limitations in gastric and gastroesophageal junction (G/GEJ) cancer except for HER2-targeted agents, possibly due to inappropriate assay selection that has hindered identification of sensitive patients, in addition to coexisting genetic abnormalities as well as intratumoral heterogeneity. Immunohistochemistry of RTKs has, thus, proved largely unsuccessful for patient selection, and detection of RTK gene amplification as a true oncogenic driver is problematic given the small numbers of affected individuals...
