Organ-specific response to [Lu]DOTATATE peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) assessed by sequential [Ga]DOTATOC PET/CT in patients with metastatic small intestine neuroendocrine tumors.

Purpose: To evaluate organ-specific response to [Lu]DOTATATE Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (PRRT) in patients with small intestine neuroendocrine tumor (SiNET) through [Ga]DOTATOC PET/CT, and to analyze tumor uptake and functional volume variations at different metastatic sites in relation to disease progression during clinical follow-up after treatment.

Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 33 metastatic patients. PET/CT were performed pre-treatment (PET0), mid-treatment after two PRRT cycles (PET2), and post-treatment (PET4).

Effect of Treatment of Residual Disease After Immunotherapy-Based Combinations on Complete Response Rate of Patients With Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinomas.

Introduction: Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)-based combinations have revolutionized the management of first-line metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) by improving patient survival. Large phase 3 randomized trials assessing ICI-based combinations have reported complete response (CR) rates of 10% to 18% in the first-line setting. However, there is a scarcity of data about the effect of treatment of residual disease regarding CR rates improvement.

PEC-PRO: A new prognostic score from a series of 87 patients with localized perivascular epithelioid cell neoplasms (PEComas) treated with curative intent.

Background: Perivascular epithelioid cell neoplasms (PEComas) encompass a heterogeneous family of mesenchymal tumors. Previously described clinicopathologic features aimed at distinguishing benign from malignant variants but lacked prognostic value.

Methods: This retrospective analysis examined clinicopathologic data from patients who had localized PEComa across French Sarcoma Network centers.

Delineating the interplay between oncogenic pathways and immunity in anaplastic Wilms tumors.

Wilms tumors are highly curable in up to 90% of cases with a combination of surgery and radio-chemotherapy, but treatment-resistant types such as diffuse anaplastic Wilms tumors pose significant therapeutic challenges. Our multi-omics profiling unveils a distinct desert-like diffuse anaplastic Wilms tumor subtype marked by immune/stromal cell depletion, TP53 alterations, and cGAS-STING pathway downregulation, accounting for one-third of all diffuse anaplastic cases. This subtype, also characterized by reduced CD8 and CD3 infiltration and active oncogenic pathways involving histone deacetylase and DNA repair, correlates with poor clinical outcomes.
