An Analytical Framework Characterizes the Biological Processes that Shape Copy Number-Based Genome Instability Patterns in Breast Cancer. (PubMed, Cancer Res)
Collectively, these findings demonstrate the value of deep interrogation of scores and signatures in characterizing the biological processes and clinical implications underlying CN-based GI. The publicly available web portal (https://cnavisualizer.pittlabgenomics.com/home) will facilitate similar analyses across pan-cancer genomes.

Next-generation sequencing methodologies to identify patients for targeted therapy: focus on HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer. (PubMed, Pathologica)
In this review, we discuss the clinical and biological significance of PI3K pathway alterations in HR+/HER2- mBC, focusing on tumors that progress following endocrine therapy and CDK4/6 inhibitor treatment. We then highlight how different diagnostic strategies, including sample type, testing methodology, and timing, can improve the identification of patients who are eligible for targeted therapies and promote the effective integration of molecular diagnostics into routine clinical care.

PIK3CA testing in HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer: assessing pathology laboratories capacity and needs. (PubMed, Pathologica)
We conducted a nationwide, cross-sectional survey to evaluate current practices and institutional readiness for PIK3CA testing in Italy, in the context of the anticipated expansion of PI3K-targeted therapies, including inavolisib...Nevertheless, persistent gaps in accreditation, heterogeneous workflows, and limited integration of liquid biopsy highlight ongoing challenges in standardization and diagnostic equity. Coordinated national strategies will be essential to ensure consistent, high-quality molecular diagnostics in HR+/HER2- MBC.

Epigenetic Compound Library Screen Identifies Ibrutinib as an Inhibitor of Ovarian Clear Cell Carcinoma Viability. (PubMed, Cancer Med)
Ibrutinib is used clinically to treat specific B cell disorders; however, it is not currently approved to treat solid tumours. Data presented in OCCC cell lines complements clinical observations of a therapeutic response to ibrutinib in low-grade serous ovarian cancer. Ibrutinib demonstrates potential for the treatment of certain rare subtypes of ovarian cancer and should be further investigated.

Molecular and Cell Biological Characterization of Patient-Derived Head and Neck Squamous Carcinoma Cell Lines. (PubMed, Cancer Sci)
A PDC with a PIK3CA activating mutation was sensitive to the PI3K inhibitor Alpelisib. We also demonstrated that PDCs harboring chromosome segregation errors were vulnerable to KIF18A deletion and pharmacological inhibition. These results support the value of HNSCC-derived PDCs as a platform for advances in precision medicine in oncology research.

A rare case of uterine carcinosarcoma in a 21-year-old woman with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome: A case report. (PubMed, Oncol Lett)
The patient was treated with four cycles of paclitaxel and carboplatin, followed by an additional four cycles of combination chemotherapy with durvalumab...Maintenance therapy with durvalumab and olaparib was initiated, and the patient has remained progression-free for 10 months...The case highlights the value of genomic profiling and germline testing for personalized treatment strategies. The successful use of platinum-based chemotherapy, immune checkpoint blockade and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibition to treat this HRD-positive, mismatch repair-proficient tumor demonstrates the potential of biomarker-driven therapy for UCS.

Genetic, Immunohistochemical and mRNA in situ hybridization Profiling of Condyloma with Concurrent Squamous Cell Carcinoma and High-Grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesion. (PubMed, Mod Pathol)
For condylomas with concurrent HSIL, 43% recurred and 9% progressed to SCC. Condylomas with concurrent SCC were associated with mutations in ASXL1, TERT and CDKN2A/CDKN2B while warty SCC was associated with mutations in PIK3CA, KMT2C and FAT1.
