Background: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has a known poor prognosis. For a select group, those with BRCA mutations, frontline platinum-based therapy and poly (ADPribose) polymerase inhibitors are options that can potentially lead to survival benefit.
Patients And Methods: We present 2 cases of patients with BRCAmutated pancreatic cancer with liver metastases that achieved a remarkable long-term complete remission on platinum-based chemotherapy.

Tumorigenesis involves a multifaceted and heterogeneous interplay characterized by perturbations in individual immune surveillance. Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, as orchestrators of adaptive immune responses, constitute the principal component of tumor immunity. Over the past decade, the functions of tumor-specific T cells have been extensively elucidated, whereas current understanding and research regarding intratumoral B cells remain inadequate and underexplored.

The EGFR-TKIs (epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinases inhibitors) offer significant benefits to lung cancer patients with sensitive EGFR mutations; however, the development of acquired resistance poses a significant challenge and leads to poor prognosis. Thus, exploring novel therapeutic strategies to overcome EGFR-TKI resistance is urgently needed. This study introduces an innovative approach utilizing folic acid-modified milk exosomes loaded with c-kit siRNA (FA-mExo-siRNA-c-kit) to target EGFR-TKI resistance in lung cancer.

Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), which differentiate from tissue-resident macrophages, are recognized for their ability to influence cancer progression and metastasis. However, the specific role of Kupffer cells (KCs), the intrinsic macrophages of the liver, in the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains unclear. In this study, we describe a novel mechanism by which exosomes derived from HCC cells induce KCs to transition into TAMs, thereby facilitating the metastasis of HCC in an IL6-JAK1-ACAP4 axis-dependent manner.

The role of oxidative stress metabolism during hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) formation potentially allows for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging of oxidative stress activity for early and precise HCC detection. However, there is currently limited data available on oxidative-stress-related PET imaging for longitudinal monitoring of the pathophysiological changes during HCC formation. This work aimed to explore PET-based longitudinal monitoring of oxidative stress metabolism and determine the sensitivity of [18F]-5-fluoroaminosuberic acid ([18F]FASu) for assessing pathophysiological processes in diethylnitrosamine (DEN) induced rat HCC.
