Adjuvant Temozolomide Chemotherapy With or Without Interferon Alfa Among Patients With Newly Diagnosed High-grade Gliomas: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Chengcheng Guo et al.

Summary: This study compared the efficacy and toxic effects of the combination of temozolomide and interferon alfa with temozolomide alone in patients with newly diagnosed high-grade gliomas. The results showed that the combination treatment significantly prolonged overall survival compared to standard treatment, especially in patients with O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase unmethylation. However, the combination treatment was associated with more common toxic effects.

Long-term Outcome With Prolonged Use of Interferon-alpha Administered Intermittently for Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma: A Phase II Study

Minna Kankuri-tammilehto et al.

Summary: This study provides long-term follow-up data on the use of IFN-alpha in metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) patients. The results show that patients with stable and responding disease can benefit from prolonged IFN-alpha treatment, although the 5-year survival rate is low in the high-risk group.

Type I interferon-mediated tumor immunity and its role in immunotherapy

Renren Yu et al.

Summary: Type I interferons inhibit tumor growth directly and indirectly by acting upon tumor and immune cells, with evidence showing that enhancing both endo- and exogenously produced type I IFNs have a synergistic effect on anti-tumor immunity. Clinical trials are currently exploring new treatment strategies combining type I IFN inducers with ICBs, highlighting the importance of understanding the cellular sources and roles of type I IFNs in the immune regulation of the tumor microenvironment.

Co-occurrence of CDKN2A/B and IFN-I homozygous deletions correlates with an immunosuppressive phenotype and poor prognosis in lung adenocarcinoma

Yuan Peng et al.

Summary: Homozygous deletion of CDKN2A and CDKN2B (CDKN2A/B-HD) is a common copy-number variation in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and is associated with poor prognosis. CDKN2A/B-HD patients have shorter disease-free survival and overall survival, which may be attributed to co-occurrence with IFN-I-HD.

MACHETE identifies interferon-encompassing chromosome 9p21.3 deletions as mediators of immune evasion and metastasis

Francisco M. Barriga et al.

Summary: The study reveals that the concurrent loss of the interferon cluster with CDKN2A/B deletions on chromosome 9p21.3 enhances immune evasion, metastasis, and resistance to immunotherapy.

CDKN2A loss-of-function predicts immunotherapy resistance in non-small cell lung cancer

Stanley Gutiontov et al.

Summary: The study found that the loss of CDKN2A function is associated with poorer clinical outcomes in advanced NSCLC patients treated with ICB, even in high PD-L1 and high TMB tumors. This novel finding should be further validated and may serve as a potential therapeutic target.

Comprehensive Analysis Revealed that CDKN2A is a Biomarker for Immune Infiltrates in Multiple Cancers

Zheng Chen et al.

Summary: The CDKN2A gene, encoding MTS1, is highly expressed in tumor tissue compared to normal tissue and is associated with immune infiltrates across cancers, suggesting its potential as a promising prognostic biomarker.

Second surgery for progressive glioblastoma: a multi-centre questionnaire and cohort-based review of clinical decision-making and patient outcomes in current practice

P. M. Brennan et al.

Summary: The prognosis for glioblastoma is poor, with limited treatment options at progression. This study aimed to examine variations in surgical management at progression and propose consensus guidelines to reduce heterogeneity in decision making. Current practice showed variation in patient selection for second surgery, with a focus on maintaining or improving patient quality of life, and no association between time to second surgery and time to death.

The prognostic significance of p16 expression pattern in diffuse gliomas

Jin Woo Park et al.

Summary: The study showed that loss of p16 expression predicted worse outcomes in glioma patients, especially in IDH-mutant astrocytoma patients. However, it did not predict outcomes in IDH-wildtype glioma patients or in oligodendroglial tumor patients with the OH-mutation and 1p/19q codeletion. Multivariate analysis confirmed the association between p16 expression loss and poor prognosis in IDH-mutant glioma and astrocytoma patients. Patients with tumors showing p16 overexpression also had shorter survival times compared to those with p16 focal expression, particularly in IDH-mutant glioma groups.
