Combined immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) and chemoradiation (CRT) is approved in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC) but optimal sequencing of CRT and ICB is unknown. NRG-GY017 (NCT03738228) was a randomized phase I trial of atezolizumab (anti-PD-L1) neoadjuvant and concurrent with CRT (Arm A) vs. concurrent with CRT (Arm B) in patients with high-risk node-positive LACC.

Osteosarcoma (OS) is a prevalent primary malignant bone tumor, typically managed through a combination of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and surgical interventions. Recent advancements in early detection and the use of novel chemotherapeutic agents have significantly improved the 5-year survival rate of OS patients. However, some patients fail to achieve the desired treatment outcomes despite undergoing intensive chemotherapy and surgicals procedures, with chemotherapy resistance emerging as a critical factor contributing to therapeutic failure in OS.

Recently, attention has increasingly centered on non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with immune checkpoint inhibitors application. Numerous clinical studies have underscored the potential of immunotherapy in treating resectable NSCLC, highlighting its role in improving patient outcomes. However, despite these promising results, there is ongoing debate regarding the efficacy of immunological combination therapy strategies, the prevalence of treatment-related side effects, the identification of predictive biomarkers, and various other challenges within the neoadjuvant context.

Early prediction of the neoadjuvant therapy efficacy for HER2-positive breast cancer is crucial for personalizing treatment and enhancing patient outcomes. Exosomes, which play a role in tumor development and treatment response, are emerging as potential biomarkers for cancer diagnosis and efficacy prediction. Despite their promise, current exosome detection and isolation methods are cumbersome and time-consuming and often yield limited purity and quantity.
