lung cancer

[Clinical and Translational Medicine] Investigators explored the impacts of prostate cancer-associated ncRNA transcripts 1 (PCAT1) on tumorigenesis and radioimmune responses and the underlying molecular mechanisms in NSCLC.

[Molecular Cancer Research] A transgenic mouse model expressing human Caspase-9b in the lung pneumocytes developed inflammatory lung lesions, which correlated with enhanced activation of the NF-κB pathway and increased influx of immunosuppressive MDSCs in contrast to wild-type mice.

[Clinical Cancer Research] A retrospective database query identified patients with KRAS-mutant NSCLC to understand their propensity to develop brain metastases.

[Journal For Immunotherapy of Cancer] Researchers supported the rational design of immunotherapeutic strategies targeting cancer stem cells to optimize their responsiveness to local CD8+CD103+ TRM cells for more efficient anticancer treatments.

[Biomarker Research] The authors systematically review the recent clinical research of and treatments used for epidermal growth factor receptor ex20ins mutations, summarize the latest data on emerging therapies, and discuss future prospects and treatments.

[Coherus BioSciences, Inc.] Coherus BioSciences, Inc. announced that the FDA has granted Orphan Drug Designation for toripalimab, a PD-1 inhibitor, for the treatment of small cell lung cancer.
