概括
激活MAPK通路的改变预测了肺状细胞癌 (LSCC) 的更好的免疫疗法反应. 基因分析对于优化晚期LSCC患者治疗策略至关重要.
科学领域:
- 在瘤学瘤学.
- 免疫治疗是一种免疫疗法.
- 基因组学就是基因组学.
背景情况:
- 免疫疗法在肺平细胞癌 (LSCC) 的疗效是可变的.
- 需要在LSCC中预测免疫治疗反应的预测生物标志物.
研究的目的:
- 评估nivolumab加 ipilimumab (NI) 与基于的化疗加nivolumab (N-CT) 在晚期或转移的LSCC的疗效.
- 确定生物标志物,特别是激活MAPK途径的改变,这些生物标志物可以预测LSCC的免疫治疗反应.
主要方法:
- 一个随机的II期试验 (SQUINT),比较化学前不经过治疗的LSCC患者的NI和N-CT.
- 分析MAPK通路的改变和免疫细胞透 (CD8+PD1+,FOXP3+) 作为潜在的生物标志物.
- 验证队列分析,以证实免疫治疗先验患者的发现.
主要成果:
- 患有MAPK通路激活变化的患者对免疫治疗的反应率较高 (43%对15%).
- MAPK的改变与明显更长的无进展生存期 (P=0.03) 和整体生存期 (P<0.001) 相关.
- 在MAPK改变的瘤中观察到CD8+PD1+T细胞增加和CD8+PD1+/FOXP3比率更高.
结论:
- 激活MAPK通路的改变是LSCC免疫疗法疗效的新型预测生物标志物.
- 基因分析,特别是对MAPK途径的改变,对于指导LSCC治疗决策具有临床意义.
- 这些发现强调了分子分析在个性化癌症治疗中的重要性.

Tumor Immunotherapy
467
Immunotherapy is a treatment that boosts or manipulates the immune system to fight diseases, including cancer. For instance, by stimulating an immune response through vaccinations against viruses that cause cancers, like hepatitis B virus and human papillomavirus, these diseases can be prevented. Nonetheless, some cancer cells can avoid the immune system due to their rapid mutation and division. The immune response to many cancers involves three phases: elimination, equilibrium, and escape.

Targeted Cancer Therapies
7.4K
The targeted cancer therapies, also known as “molecular targeted therapies,” take advantage of the molecular and genetic differences between the cancer cells and the normal cells. It needs a thorough understanding of the cancer cells to develop drugs that can target specific molecular aspects that drive the growth, progression, and spread of cancer cells without affecting the growth and survival of other normal cells in the body.

mTOR Signaling and Cancer Progression
3.7K
The mammalian target of rapamycin or mTOR protein was discovered in 1994 due to its direct interaction with rapamycin. The protein gets its name from a yeast homolog called TOR. The mTOR protein complex in mammalian cells plays a major role in balancing anabolic processes such as the synthesis of proteins, lipids, and nucleotides and catabolic processes, such as autophagy in response to environmental cues, such as availability of nutrients and growth factors.
