Purpose: Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) harboring topoisomerase I (TOP1) inhibitor payloads have improved survival for patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC). However, knowledge of ADC resistance mechanisms and potential impact on sequential use of ADCs is limited. Here, we report the incidence and characterization of TOP1 mutations arising in the setting of ADC resistance in MBC.

Cancers exhibit a remarkable ability to develop resistance to a range of treatments, often resulting in relapse following first-line therapies and significantly worse outcomes for subsequent treatments. While our understanding of the mechanisms and dynamics of the emergence of resistance during cancer therapy continues to advance, questions remain about how to minimize the probability that resistance will evolve, thereby improving long-term patient outcomes. Here, we present an evolutionary simulation model of a clonal population of cells that can acquire resistance mutations to one or more treatments.

Purpose: Combined BRAF, MEK, and EGFR inhibition can induce clinical responses in BRAF-V600E-mutant colon cancer, but rapid resistance often occurs.
Methods: We use serial monitoring of circulating tumor DNA cell-free plasma DNA (cfDNA) in a patient case study in addition to organoids derived from mouse models of BRAF-V600E-mutant intestinal cancer, which emulated the patient's mutational profile to assess drug treatment efficacy.
Results: We demonstrate dynamic evolution of resistance to combined EGFR/BRAF/MEK inhibition in a pediatric patient with metastatic BRAF-V600E-mutant, mismatch repair-stable colon cancer.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the phenotypic and genotypic responses of Typhimurium ATCC 19585 (ST) and KACC 13236 (SA) preadapted to sublethal concentrations of lactic acid (LA) and sodium chloride (NaCl) for 48 hr at 37°C, followed by re-exposure to lethal concentrations of LA and NaCl for 24 hr at 37°C. ST and SA treated in a sequential and ordered manner with LA and NaCl were assigned as LA-LA, LA-NaCl, NaCl-LA, and NaCl-NaCl. The treatments, LA-LA, LA-NaCl, NaCl-LA, and NaCl-NaCl, were evaluated by antimicrobial susceptibility, bacterial fluctuation, relative fitness, zeta potential, and gene expression.

Background: The optimal sequential strategy for antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) in breast cancer remains uncertain. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and potential resistance of second ADC (ADC2) following the first ADC (ADC1) in human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive and HER2-low MBC.
Methods: This retrospective, multicenter, real-world study enrolled patients with MBC who received at least 2 different types of ADCs in 3 hospitals in China between July 1, 2017 and May 1, 2023.
