AI Article Synopsis
- Liquid biopsy is an innovative method that analyzes cell-free DNA to offer insights into diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), a type of cancer.
- The study by Alcoceba et al. evaluates how effective the EuroClonality-NDC assay is for profiling DLBCL and its potential for practical use.
- Achieving a major molecular response through this method has important implications for predicting patient outcomes and assessing treatment effectiveness.
Article Abstract
Liquid biopsy to provide a mutational snapshot of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is an emerging technology of exciting potential utility. The report by Alcoceba et al. assesses the tractability of the EuroClonality-NDC assay to profile lymphoma using cell-free DNA and highlights the prognostic implication of attaining a major molecular response to therapy. Commentary on: Alcoceba et al. Liquid biopsy for molecular characterization of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and early assessment of minimal residual disease. Br J Haematol 2024;205:109-121.

Background/aims: Certain sociodemographic groups are routinely underrepresented in clinical trials, limiting generalisability. Here, we describe the extent to which enriched enrolment approaches yielded a diverse trial population enriched for older age in a randomised controlled trial of a blood-based multi-cancer early detection test (NCT05611632).
Methods: Participants aged 50-77 years were recruited from eight Cancer Alliance regions in England.

The treatment landscape for advanced melanoma has transformed significantly with the advent of BRAF and MEK inhibitors (BRAF/MEKi) targeting V600 mutations, as well as immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) like anti-PD-1 monotherapy or its combinations with anti-CTLA-4 or anti-LAG-3. Despite that, many patients still do not benefit from these treatments at all or develop resistance mechanisms. Therefore, prognostic and predictive biomarkers are needed to identify patients who should switch or escalate their treatment strategies or initiate an intensive follow-up.

Prostate cancer, a leading cause of cancer-related mortality among men, often presents challenges in accurate diagnosis and effective monitoring. This systematic review explores the potential of exosomal biomolecules as noninvasive biomarkers for the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment response of prostate cancer. A thorough systematic literature search through online public databases (Medline via PubMed, Scopus, and Web of science) using structured search terms and screening using predefined eligibility criteria resulted in 137 studies that we analyzed in this systematic review.

This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic potential of soluble Programmed Death Ligand 1 (sPD-L1) and Programmed Death 1 (sPD-1) molecules in plasma, along with urinary mRNA biomarkers-Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen (), Prostate Cancer Antigen 3 (), and androgen receptor () genes-for identifying clinically significant prostate cancer (PCa), defined as pathological stage 3. In a cohort of 68 PCa patients, sPD-L1 and sPD-1 levels were quantified using ELISA, while mRNA transcripts were measured by RT-qPCR. Results highlight the potential of integrating these liquid-based biomarkers.

Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic inflammatory esophageal disorder. The lack of non-invasive biomarkers currently results in dependency on endoscopy with biopsies for its diagnosis and monitoring. We aimed to identify potential non-invasive biomarkers using microRNAs (miRNAs) in plasma-derived extracellular vesicles (pEVs).
