ABSTRACT Background The NTRK fusion gene is detected in most salivary gland secretory carcinomas. While tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) inhibitors are used for various solid tumors with the fusion gene, there are no reports regarding TRK inhibitor use for unresectable parotid gland carcinomas that subsequently shrink and become resectable.

Nanotechnology in brain cancer treatment: The role of gold nanoparticles as therapeutic enhancers
This review highlights the potential of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) in overcoming the blood‐brain barrier (BBB) to improve brain tumor treatment. By enabling targeted drug delivery and enhancing therapies like radiotherapy, phototherapy, and chemotherapy, AuNPs offer a promising approach for safer, more effective treatments of glioblastoma and other ...

Epigenomics‐guided precision oncology: Chromatin variants in prostate tumor evolution
Abstract Prostate cancer is a common malignancy that in 5%–30% leads to treatment‐resistant and highly aggressive disease. Metastasis‐potential and treatment‐resistance is thought to rely on increased plasticity of the cancer cells—a mechanism whereby cancer cells alter their identity to adapt to changing environments or therapeutic pressures to create

Exosomes, autophagy, and cancer: A complex triad
Abstract Cancer remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Despite remarkable progress in prevention, diagnosis, and therapy, the incidence of certain types of cancer persists, urging the identification of clinically relevant biomarkers and the development of novel therapeutic strategies to improve clinical outcomes and overcome treatment ...

Therapeutic targeting of chromatin alterations in leukemia and solid tumors
Abstract Alterations in chromatin conformation and post‐translational modification of histones have become increasingly recognized as critical drivers of cancer development, progression, and therapy resistance. Recent advances in drug development have led to the establishment of several highly selective small molecule inhibitors, several of which are ...

What's New? About half of penile squamous cell carcinomas are causally associated with inflammatory conditions such as lichen sclerosus (LSc), but few large‐scale studies have assessed the risk of penile cancer in men with LSc. Here, the authors conducted a large nationwide study in Denmark to estimate the risk of penile and non‐penile cancer in men ...

Blood‐based biomarkers in soft tissue sarcoma: Implications for immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy
Abstract Soft tissue sarcoma (STS) is a rare and heterogeneous cancer, comprising approximately 1% of all adult cancers and 7%–15% of all childhood cancers. In the advanced stages, chemotherapy remains the standard‐of‐care, but efficacy is limited, with a response rate of 15%–30%, and responses are often short‐lived, with median progression‐free ...
