: Prostate cancer treatment has been revolutionized by targeted therapies, including PARP inhibitors, checkpoint immunotherapies, and PSMA-targeted radiotherapies. Despite such advancements, accurate patient stratification remains a challenge, with current methods relying on genomic markers, tissue staining, and imaging. Extracellular vesicle (EV)-derived proteins offer a novel non-invasive alternative for biomarker discovery, holding promise for improving treatment precision.

CRISPR-StAR enables high-resolution genetic screening in complex in vivo models.

Nat Biotechnol

December 2024

Institute of Molecular Biotechnology of the Austrian Academy of Science (IMBA), Dr. Bohr-Gasse 3, Vienna BioCenter (VBC), Vienna, Austria.

Pooled genetic screening with CRISPR-Cas9 has enabled genome-wide, high-resolution mapping of genes to phenotypes, but assessing the effect of a given genetic perturbation requires evaluation of each single guide RNA (sgRNA) in hundreds of cells to counter stochastic genetic drift and obtain robust results. However, resolution is limited in complex, heterogeneous models, such as organoids or tumors transplanted into mice, because achieving sufficient representation requires impractical scaling. This is due to bottleneck effects and biological heterogeneity of cell populations.

Integrated multi-omics assessment of lineage plasticity in a prostate cancer patient with brain and dural metastases.

NPJ Precis Oncol

September 2024

Department of Medicine, Division of Hematology, Oncology, and Transplantation, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN, USA.

Metastases to the brain are rare in prostate cancer. Here, we describe a patient with two treatment-emergent metastatic lesions, one to the brain with neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC) histology and one to the dural membrane of adenocarcinoma histology. We performed genomic, transcriptomic, and proteomic characterization of these lesions and the primary tumor to investigate molecular features promoting these metastases.

Prospects of Synergy: Local Interventions and CAR T Cell Therapy in Solid Tumors.

BioDrugs

September 2024

Division of Clinical Pharmacology, Department of Medicine IV, University Hospital, Ludwig Maximilian University (LMU) of Munich, Lindwurmstrasse 2a, 80336, Munich, Germany.

Chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy has been established in the treatment of various B cell malignancies. However, translating this therapeutic effect to treat solid tumors has been challenging because of their inter-tumoral as well as intratumoral heterogeneity and immunosuppressive microenvironment. Local interventions, such as surgery, radiotherapy, local ablation, and locoregional drug delivery, can enhance chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy in solid tumors by improving tumor infiltration and reducing systemic toxicities.

ChatGPT's Gastrointestinal Tumor Board Tango: A limping dance partner?

Eur J Cancer

July 2024

Department of General, Visceral and Transplantation Surgery, LMU University Hospital, LMU Munich, Germany; German Cancer Consortium (DKTK), Partner Site Munich, Munich, Germany. Electronic address:

Objectives: This study aimed to assess the consistency and replicability of treatment recommendations provided by ChatGPT 3.5 compared to gastrointestinal tumor cases presented at multidisciplinary tumor boards (MTBs). It also aimed to distinguish between general and case-specific responses and investigated the precision of ChatGPT's recommendations in replicating exact treatment plans, particularly regarding chemotherapy regimens and follow-up protocols.
