Deciphering Folate Receptor alphaGene Expression and mRNA Signatures in Ovarian Cancer: Implications for Precision Therapies.

Antibody-drug conjugates targeting folate receptor alpha (FRα) are a promising treatment for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer (OC) with high FRα expression. Challenges persist in accurately assessing FRα expression levels. Our study aimed to better elucidate FRα gene expression and identify mRNA signatures in OC.

Whole-exome profiles of inflammatory breast cancer and pathological response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Background: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) became a standard treatment strategy for patients with inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) because of high disease aggressiveness. However, given the heterogeneity of IBC, no molecular feature reliably predicts the response to chemotherapy. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) of clinical tumor samples provides an opportunity to identify genomic alterations associated with chemosensitivity.

Endometrioid ovarian carcinoma landscape: pathological and molecular characterization.

Endometrioid ovarian cancers (EOvC) are usually managed as serous tumors. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive molecular investigation to uncover the distinct biological characteristics of EOvC. This retrospective multicenter study involved patients from three European centers.

Mutational landscape of inflammatory breast cancer.

Background: Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is the most pro-metastatic form of BC. Better understanding of its enigmatic pathophysiology is crucial. We report here the largest whole-exome sequencing (WES) study of clinical IBC samples.
