Mashup Score: 3
: Optimal treatment strategies for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with oligoprogression after first-line systemic therapy (FLST) remain undefined. We aimed to determine if maintaining [i.e., continuing] FLST plus radiotherapy for oligoprogressive lesions (m-FLST + RT) would result in progression-free survival (PFS) equal to or greater than that of second-line systemic therapy (s-SLST), either alone or with radiotherapy (s-SLST + RT).

Mashup Score: 13
We observed improved overall survival compared with historical controls and a promising adverse event profile by using 18F-DOPA PET−guided, dose-escalated, hypofractionated proton beam therapy. These findings have resulted in the opening of a phase 2 study (NCT05781321) investigating this regimen versus standard-of-care treatment in adults of any age with newly diagnosed glioblastoma.

Mashup Score: 568Ga-DOTATATE PET to Characterize Lesions in the Neuroaxis : Clinical Nuclear Medicine - 4 month(s) ago
his retrospective study considered 70 neuroaxis lesions in 52 patients with 68Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT examinations; 22 lesions (31%) had pathologic confirmation. Lesions were grouped based on pathological diagnosis and best radiologic diagnosis when pathology was not available. Wilcoxon rank sum tests were used to test for differences in SUVmax among paragangliomas, schwannomas, and meningiomas. Receiver operator characteristic curves were constructed. Results Paragangliomas had a significantly greater 68Ga-DOTATATE uptake (median SUVmax, 62; interquartile range [IQR], 89) than nonparagangliomas. Schwannomas had near-zero 68Ga-DOTATATE uptake (median SUVmax, 2; IQR, 1). Intermediate 68Ga-DOTATATE uptake was seen for meningiomas (median SUVmax, 19; IQR, 6) and other neuroaxis lesions (median SUVmax, 7; IQR, 9). Receiver operator characteristic analysis demonstrated an area under the curve of 0.87 for paragangliomas versus all other lesions and 0.97 for schwannomas versus all other lesions. C

Mashup Score: 27Mutant ARID1A: igniting cancer immunotherapy - 7 month(s) ago
Maxwell et al. show that ARID1A loss enhances antitumor immunity by triggering a type I IFN response through the cGAS–STING pathway, thereby promoting T cell infiltration and cytotoxicity. These findings highlight SWI/SNF inhibitors as a strategy to augment immunotherapy efficacy by potentially transforming non-responsive tumors into responders and advancing approaches to cancer treatment.
