The EPH/Ephrin System in Colorectal Cancer

Stavros P. Papadakos et al.

Summary: The EPH/ephrin system is a bidirectional signaling pathway that plays an important role in carcinogenesis. Despite advancements in the diagnosis and treatment of CRC, it remains a leading cause of global death. Recent research has provided new insights into the role of EPH/ephrins in the pathogenesis and treatment of CRC.

The Current Landscape of Immune Checkpoint Blockade in Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Review

Matthias Pinter et al.

Summary: Recent advancements in the treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have led to the approval of new systemic therapies such as angiogenesis inhibitors and immune checkpoint blockers, indicating important progress in the field. Strategies to target immunosuppression in tumors, such as vascular endothelial growth factor pathway inhibition and transforming growth factor-beta pathway inhibition, show promise in enhancing the efficacy of immunotherapy in HCC. Successes and failures of these treatments have provided insights into implementing novel systemic therapy in HCC and improving immunotherapy efficacy for this disease.

EFNA3 as a predictor of clinical prognosis and immune checkpoint therapy efficacy in patients with lung adenocarcinoma

Mingming Deng et al.

Summary: In this study, we found that increased EFNA3 expression in LUAD patients predicted worse clinical prognosis, promoted LUAD cell proliferation and glycolysis ability, and was related to immunotherapy response. Mechanistically, EFNA3 may be involved in pathways related to nuclear division, synaptic function, and ion channel activity. Furthermore, EFNA3 was negatively correlated with immunity, stromal infiltration, and various tumor infiltrating immune cells (TIICs), but positively associated with multiple immunotherapy biomarkers.

Systemic therapy of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma

Peter R Galle et al.

Summary: For a decade, sorafenib was the main treatment for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma, but recent approvals of new systemic treatments, including immunotherapies, have shifted the landscape. The combination of a checkpoint inhibitor with a VEGF antibody has shown promising results, raising questions about treatment choices and sequences.

Hepatocellular carcinoma

Josep M. Llovet et al.

Summary: Liver cancer, particularly hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), poses a significant global health challenge with rising incidence projected to exceed 1 million cases by 2025. Infection by hepatitis B and C viruses remains a major risk factor for HCC, while non-alcoholic steatohepatitis is emerging as a more common risk factor in Western countries. Advances in systemic therapies for HCC, including immunotherapies and targeted therapies, are expected to revolutionize the management of this disease.

High tumor mutation burden fails to predict immune checkpoint blockade response across all cancer types

D. J. McGrail et al.

Summary: Analysis of over 10,000 patient tumors from The Cancer Genome Atlas showed that TMB-H tumors had significantly higher response rates to immune checkpoint blockade in certain cancer types, while showing no significant benefit in others. These results do not support the use of TMB-H as a biomarker for ICB treatment across all solid cancer types, indicating the need for further tumor type-specific studies.

Shukui Qin et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that atezolizumab plus bevacizumab significantly improves overall survival and progression-free survival in Chinese patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma compared to sorafenib, with hypertension being the most common grade 3-4 adverse event and other high-grade adverse events being infrequent.

EFNA4 promotes cell proliferation and tumor metastasis in hepatocellular carcinoma through a PIK3R2/GSK3β/β-catenin positive feedback loop

Junhao Lin et al.

Summary: EFNA4 plays a crucial role in promoting proliferation and migration of HCC cells, and its overexpression is associated with poor prognosis. EFNA4 regulates the PIK3R2/GSK3 beta/beta-catenin loop to influence the survival and migration of HCC cells.
