Bevacizumab plus Irinotecan-Based Regimens in the Treatment of Metastatic Colorectal Cancer [PDF]
Objectives: Bevacizumab is a monoclonal antibody that directly inhibits vascular endothelial growth factor, a key regulator of angiogenesis. Bevacizumab significantly improves progression-free and/or overall survival in metastatic colorectal cancer in ...

This work aimed to explore the induction of cetuximab-resistant human nasopharyngeal carcinoma (hNPC) 5-8F/Erbitux cells and the mechanisms of drug resistance. The 5-8F cells with high EGFR expression and cetuximab sensitivity were screened and then induced by stepwise exposure to increasing doses of cetuximab.

Coacervate‐Mediated Lysosome‐Targeting Antibody Delivery for Protein Degradation
Targeting coacervates to the lysosome in the cytoplasm is a challenge. Here, we convert a tetrapeptide into lysosome‐targeting, membrane‐translocating coacervates. The lysosome‐sorting peptide coacervates facilitate coacervate‐mediated delivery of antibody antigen complexes and a PROTAC compound to the lysosome for the targeted degradation of cancer ...

Osteopontin Mediates Cetuximab Resistance via the MAPK Pathway in NSCLC Cells. [PDF]
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common type of lung cancer. The high expression of osteopontin (OPN) is an important factor that aggravates drug resistance and causes a poor prognosis in this disease. Therefore, understanding the molecular mechanism of OPN is critical for the treatment and prognosis of NSCLC.We used bioinformatics ...

Generation of CCR4/CD7 Bispecific CAR‐T Cells Resistant to Fratricide and Exhaustion
The applications of CAR T‐cell therapy in T‐cell malignancies face limitations such as fratricide, effector‐cell exhaustion, and antigen‐escape. Herein, we developed fratricide‐ and exhaustion‐resistant CAR‐T cells that targeted CCR4 and CD7 simultaneously, with optional EGFRt safety switch. Additionally, scRNA‐seq unveiled new molecular targets, which

Integrating Human Intestinal Organoids into FDA'S New Approach Methodologies for Drug Discovery
Illustration summarizes how human intestinal organoids (HIOs) are becoming transformative in preclinical research. Preclinical drug discovery pipelines often rely on animal models for ADMET studies, even though interspecies ADME gaps, poor external validity, and high attrition rates are common.

Revisiting Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) Amplification as a Target for Anti-EGFR Therapy: Analysis of Cell-Free Circulating Tumor DNA in Patients With Advanced Malignancies. [PDF]
PurposeTo date, evidence for tissue epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) overexpression as a biomarker for anti-EGFR therapies has been weak. We investigated the genomic landscape of EGFR amplification in blood-derived cell-free tumor DNA (cfDNA ...

Boron Neutron Capture Therapy at a Crossroads: Translational Gap and Emerging Delivery Agents
This review surveys recent advances in boron delivery agents for BNCT, emphasizing the shift from classical small molecules to multifunctional nanocarriers and theranostic systems. By integrating targeting, imaging, and therapy, next‐generation boron compounds aim to bridge the gap between (bio)chemical innovation and clinical translation.
