ABSTRACT Somatostatin receptor 2 is expressed in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). We report genomic and transcriptomic analysis results of 163 NPC cases, demonstrating that somatostatin receptor 2 (SSTR2) gene expression in EBV‐positive and in EBV‐negative NPC correlated with genomic alterations and an inflamed microenvironment.

Targeted Therapy, Immunotherapy, and Molecular Testing in Advanced Solid Tumors: A Medicare Analysis
ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Biomarker testing and matched therapies are central to precision oncology, but their real‐world uptake and clinical impact among older adults with advanced solid tumors remain poorly characterized. This retrospective observational cohort study assessed biomarker testing and guideline‐concordant matched first‐line therapy

Deficient (d) DNA mismatch repair (MMR) is a biomarker predictive of better response to PD-1 blockade immunotherapy in solid tumors. dMMR can be caused by mutations in MMR genes or by protein inactivation, which can be detected by sequencing and ...

The human PMS2 mismatch repair gene and a family of at least 17 other related genes (named human PMSR or PMS2L genes) have been localized to human chromosome 7. Human PMS2 has been mapped previously to 7p22 and shown to be causative in hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer (HNPCC), but the human PMS2L genes have not been positioned in the context of the

ABSTRACT This case highlights the importance of genetic evaluation during treatment in young patients with advanced ovarian cancer. Lynch syndrome caused by a germline MSH6 pathogenic variant was diagnosed during first‐line maintenance therapy, and pembrolizumab achieved a durable response in recurrent disease.

ABSTRACT Background Ovarian cancer is one of the leading causes of death from gynecological cancer worldwide. Genetic mutations in genes involved in key cellular functions such as BRCA1/2 play a central role in tumorigenesis and have major implications for targeted therapeutic strategies, especially the use of poly (ADP‐ribose) polymerase (PARP ...

PMS2-associated Lynch syndrome : the odd one out [PDF]
Colorectal cancer is one of the most frequently diagnosed cancers in the Western world. Both hereditary and genetic factors play a role in its etiology.

Constitutional mismatch repair deficiency (CMMRD) is a rare syndrome characterized by an increased incidence of cancer. It is caused by biallelic germline mutations in one of the four mismatch repair genes (MMR) genes: MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, or PMS2. Accurate

ABSTRACT Introduction Immune checkpoint inhibitors have shown only limited clinical efficacy in germ cell tumors (GCTs), underscoring the need for predictive biomarkers such as microsatellite instability‐high (MSI‐high). We report a rare case of mixed‐type GCTs treated with chemotherapy, in which the somatic‐type malignancy (STM) component was found to

Strategies and mechanisms of precision genome engineering: From gene editing to genome writing
In this review, we examined the progression of genome manipulation from stochastic nuclease‐mediated cutting toward precise editing and programmable genome writing. We discussed tools like multi‐kilobase RNA‐guided integrators and Artificial Intelligence (AI)‐designed effectors and showed how these advances enable researchers to treat genomes as ...
