Extracranial rhabdoid tumours: Results of a SFCE series of patients treated with a dose compression strategy according to European Paediatric Soft tissue sarcoma Study Group recommendations

Maxime Enault et al.

Summary: Background and aims: This study retrospectively analyzed the effectiveness of the new treatment approach for extracranial malignant rhabdoid tumors in children in France. The results showed that the treatment regimen did not cause significant short-term toxicity, including in infants, and achieved favorable outcomes in patients meeting certain conditions. However, the prognosis remains poor for patients without complete tumor resection or with metastatic lesions.

Molecular Heterogeneity in Pediatric Malignant Rhabdoid Tumors in Patients With Multi-Organ Involvement

Katherine E. Miller et al.

Summary: This study analyzed seven rhabdoid tumors from three pediatric patients using a multimodal molecular approach. The findings revealed SMARCB1 germline alterations in all patients and tumors, as well as different subgroups of rhabdoid tumors. The study also showed non-clonal origin of synchronous brain and kidney tumors, and suggested the likely origin of lung and abdominal metastasis. Other genetic events were identified in tumors but did not offer prognostic or therapeutic potential for rhabdoid tumors.

A Phase Ib Study of Alpelisib or Buparlisib Combined with Tamoxifen Plus Goserelin in Premenopausal Women with HR-Positive HER2-Negative Advanced Breast Cancer

Yen-Shen Lu et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of alpelisib or buparlisib in combination with tamoxifen and goserelin in premenopausal patients with HR+, HER2(-) ABC. The RP2Ds of alpelisib and buparlisib were established at 350 mg and 100 mg, respectively, with no unexpected safety findings. The progression-free survival was slightly longer in the alpelisib group compared to the buparlisib group.

Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma PDX Drug Screening Platform Identifies Cooperation between Inhibitions of PI3Kα/δ and HDAC

Chi-Heng Wu et al.

Summary: Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma is a type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that starts in the skin and spreads systemically, with limited treatment options. Researchers identified PI3K inhibitor BKM120 as potentially effective in the disease through high-throughput screening and patient-derived xenograft mouse models, and demonstrated the importance of PI3K-delta in tumor proliferation.

AP-2α Regulates S-Phase and Is a Marker for Sensitivity to PI3K Inhibitor Buparlisib in Colon Cancer

Anna C. Beck et al.

Summary: Loss of AP-2 alpha in colon cancer leads to prolonged cell cycle progression through altered activation of AKT, resulting in resistance to the PI3K inhibitor Buparlisib. AP-2 alpha serves as a marker for response to PI3K inhibitors.

BKM120 sensitizes glioblastoma to the PARP inhibitor rucaparib by suppressing homologous recombination repair

Shaolu Zhang et al.

Summary: This study demonstrated synergistic anticancer effects of PARP inhibitor and PI3K inhibitor on GBM cells, affecting HR molecule expression, repair efficiency, and apoptosis induction. The combination therapy showed significantly increased anti-tumor efficacy in cell and animal models, with complemented DNA damage response and drug accumulation. This combination therapy might represent a promising therapeutic approach for GBM.

Dual targeting of MEK and PI3K effectively controls the proliferation of human EGFR-TKI resistant non-small cell lung carcinoma cell lines with different genetic backgrounds

Ge-Ping Qu et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the effects of dual targeting of MEK and PI3K in human EGFR-TKI resistant NSCLC cell lines. Dual targeting efficiently inhibited cell proliferation, induced apoptosis and cell cycle distribution, and decreased phosphorylation of key proteins. Different mutation and amplification status in genes EGFR, K-RAS, PIK3CA, and MET led to varying sensitivity to different drug combinations, demonstrating promising therapeutic potentials for EGFR-TKI resistant NSCLC, especially in K-RAS and PIK3CA mutants.

PI3K Promotes Basal Cell Carcinoma Growth Through Kinase-Induced p21 Degradation

Rachel Y. Chow et al.

Summary: The PI3K pathway is highly expressed in BCC and inhibition of PI3K activity reduces cell proliferation and HH signaling in BCC cells. Treatment with a PI3K inhibitor in mouse BCCs slows tumor cell growth without affecting HH signaling significantly. PI3K promotes BCC tumor growth through kinase-induced p21 degradation without altering HH signaling.
