Distinct biological and molecular characteristics of breast cancer in young women: a narrative review. (PubMed, Ann Med Surg (Lond))
This review synthesizes current knowledge on the unique tumor biology of breast cancer in young women, highlighting the need for precision oncology approaches that account for age-related tumor behavior. Enhanced characterization of this population may ultimately improve survival outcomes and quality of life for young women affected by breast cancer.

The benefit of adjuvant pertuzumab and trastuzumab according to estrogen receptor and HER2 expression: a Sub-analysis of the APHINITY trial. (PubMed, J Natl Cancer Inst)
Pertuzumab numerically improved IDFS in all subgroups, greatest in HER2 FISH-low/ER-positive tumors. These exploratory findings are hypothesis-generating and support prospective validation of biomarker-guided strategies.

Clinically actionable alterations in Indian breast cancer patients derived through whole transcriptome sequencing. (PubMed, Indian J Med Res)
Fusion transcript analysis identified 91 recurrent fusions, including novel partners with ERBB2, MED1, and CDK12, suggesting the possibility of unique molecular events. Interpretation and conclusions This study demonstrates that Indian breast cancer patients exhibit molecular subtypes and actionable mutations comparable to Caucasian cohorts.

Anti-cancer effect of a novel photodynamic therapy using glucose-linked chlorin e6 conjugated trastuzumab for HER2-positive gastrointestinal cancers. (PubMed, PLoS One)
Evaluation of cell death using the WST-8 assay also demonstrated a significantly higher cytotoxic effect of G-Ce6-trastuzumab in HER2-high-expression cells compared with conventional PS G-Ce6. Thereby, G-Ce6-trastuzumab may be an excellent novel PS for PDT because of its strong selectivity for HER2-high-expression cells.

Correlation between quantitative DCE-MRI and pathologic complete response in patients with invasive ductal carcinoma undergoing neoadjuvant systemic therapy. (PubMed, Medicine (Baltimore))
Our preliminary findings suggested an association between the pCR and pretreatment peritumoural PK parameters, highlighting the potential value of the peritumoural region. These results require further validation in larger prospective studies.

Sequential Use of Trastuzumab Deruxtecan and Sacituzumab Govitecan in Patients with Breast Cancer: A Pharmacological Approach to Support the Clinical Rationale. (PubMed, Drugs)
By contrast, sacituzumab govitecan is a TROP-2-targeted ADC conjugated through a hydrolysable CL2A linker to SN-38, the active metabolite of irinotecan. Clinically, trastuzumab deruxtecan has shown substantial efficacy in both HER2-positive and HER2-low breast cancer, whereas sacituzumab govitecan has demonstrated efficacy across triple-negative and hormone receptor-positive/HER2-negative breast cancers. Collectively, these agents highlight how variations in target antigen, linker chemistry, and payload potency impact ADC activity, therapeutic index, and potential strategies for sequential treatment in advanced breast cancer.

Results and Exploratory Biomarker Analyses of a Phase II Study CHANGEABLE: Combination of PD-1 Inhibitor and Niraparib in GErm-Line-mutAted Metastatic Breast Cancer. (PubMed, MedComm (2020))
This phase II trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of combining niraparib with the PD-1 inhibitor HX008 in patients with metastatic breast cancer who had germline DNA damage response (DDR) mutations. Somatic TP53 mutations significantly correlated with shorter PFS, while ASXL1 mutations correlated with longer PFS. This chemotherapy-free regimen demonstrates promising efficacy and a tolerable safety profile in patients with metastatic breast cancer and germline DDR mutations, providing a novel therapeutic option for this patient population, even those with brain metastases.

Evaluating the statistical utility and information loss in the transformation of a real-world oncology database from CDISC-SDTM to OMOP-CDM. (PubMed, ESMO Real World Data Digit Oncol)
Statistical utility of the real-world oncology dataset was maintained after transformation to OMOP-CDM, ensuring reproducibility of statistical analyses. Information loss during conversion is significantly dependent on the intrinsic characteristics and level of standardization of the source database, particularly if not originally adhering to standard vocabularies.
