The impact of clinical stage on the effectiveness of osimertinib for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains unexamined. We investigated osimertinib therapeutic efficacy variation between stage IVA or lower and stage IVB EGFR mutation-positive lung cancers, focusing on differences in pretreatment co-occurring genetic alterations in circulating tumor DNA. This was a secondary analysis of the ELUCIDATOR study, a multicenter prospective observational study in Japan that assessed the mechanisms underlying resistance to osimertinib as a first-line treatment for advanced NSCLC with EGFR mutations.

Angiogenesis is a significant character of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and is an important reason leading to high mortality rates of LUAD patients. However, the molecular mechanisms of lncRNAs regulating the angiogenesis in LUAD have not been fully elucidated. Here we show lncRNA chromatin-associated RNA 10 (CAR10) was upregulated in the tumor tissue of patients with LUAD and enhanced tumor metastasis.

Vulvar cancer is a rare gynaecological disease that can be caused by infection with human papillomavirus (HPV). The mutational frequencies and landscape for HPV-associated and HPV-independent vulvar tumor development are supposedly two distinctly different pathways and more detailed knowledge on target biological mechanisms for individualized future treatments is needed. The study included formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples from 32 cancer patients (16 HPV-negative and 16 HPV-associated), treated in Örebro, Sweden from 1988 to 2008.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a histologically heterogeneous disease with variable clinical outcome. The role the tumour microenvironment (TME) plays in determining tumour progression is complex and not fully understood. To improve our understanding, it is critical that the TME is studied systematically within clinically annotated patient cohorts with long-term follow-up.

Histologic features, including architectural patterns, cytologic features, and 2021 World Health Organization nuclear grade have been shown to have prognostic significance in epithelioid diffuse pleural mesothelioma (DPM). Biphasic and sarcomatoid DPM, regardless of morphology, have worse outcomes. These prognostic findings are well-established but correlation of architectural patterns, cytologic features, and nuclear grade with genetic alterations has not been well studied.
