Small intestinal SMARCA4-deficient undifferentiated carcinoma with intussusception: A case report. (PubMed, Oncol Lett)
Next-generation sequencing of the primary small intestinal tumor identified pathogenic mutations in PTEN, TP53, ataxia telangiectasia mutated, ephrin type-A receptor 5 and EGFR p.F997L, suggesting a DNA-repair-deficient genomic background and providing potential targets for future precision therapy. Further research is warranted to determine the molecular mechanisms underlying SMARCA4-DUC, for the development of targeted therapeutic strategies and to improve the understanding of the aggressiveness of SMARCA4-DUC.

Therapeutic Advances in Metastatic Prostate Cancer: A Journey from Standard of Care to New Emerging Treatment. (PubMed, Int J Mol Sci)
We detail the evidence supporting the integration of systemic agents like abiraterone, enzalutamide, and darolutamide into both hormone-sensitive and castration-resistant settings. Furthermore, we highlight the expanding role of radioligand therapies, including radium-223 and Lutetium-177-labeled PSMA-617 (Lu-PSMA-617), as well as the growing impact of PARP inhibitors in genomically selected patients. The emergence of theranostic strategies and next-generation sequencing has paved the way for personalized treatment algorithms, moving toward a truly precision oncology model in PCa. This comprehensive review synthesizes current therapeutic strategies, clinical trial evidence, and future directions aimed at optimizing outcomes and quality of life for patients with advanced prostate cancer.

Comprehensive Genomic Profiling of Small-Cell Lung Cancer Reveals Frequent Potentially Targetable Alterations. (PubMed, Int J Mol Sci)
TYRO3, a TAM family receptor tyrosine kinase, and SDHA, a mitochondrial enzyme involved in succinate metabolism, may contribute to tumor progression and represent emerging therapeutic vulnerabilities. These findings underscore the genomic diversity of SCLC and highlight the potential utility of broad next-generation sequencing in uncovering new molecular targets for precision therapy.

Endometrial carcinomas with solid basaloid morphology and geographic necrosis: clinicopathological and molecular features of 18 cases. (PubMed, Virchows Arch)
Endometrial carcinomas with SB-GN represent a distinct and aggressive tumor group characterized by solid growth pattern, prominent necrosis, frequent basaloid morphology, high rates of CTNNB1 mutations, and aberrant β-catenin staining. Our results demonstrate that endometrial carcinomas with SB-GN and PiMHECs share similar clinicopathologic and molecular profiles, supporting a unified biological spectrum.

Artificial Intelligence-Guided Molecular Determinants of PI3K Pathway Alterations in Early-Onset Colorectal Cancer Among High-Risk Groups Receiving FOLFOX. (PubMed, Biomedicines)
FOLFOX (folinic acid, fluorouracil, and oxaliplatin) is a standard first-line therapy for microsatellite stable (MSS) CRC lacking actionable driver mutations; however, its efficacy and genomic impact in EOCRC, particularly in underrepresented groups, remain poorly understood. By integrating clinical, molecular, and treatment variables, the AI-HOPE and AI-HOPE-PI3K platforms enabled rapid, reproducible, and fine-grained analysis of complex datasets. These findings underscore the need for ancestry-informed molecular profiling to optimize therapeutic strategies and highlight AI-guided interrogation as a powerful tool for advancing precision oncology in underrepresented and disproportionately affected CRC populations.

Clinical Impact of MTAP Rearrangement in Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: Insights From Whole Transcriptome Analysis. (PubMed, Pediatr Blood Cancer)
MTAP rearrangement defines a distinct and clinically adverse subset of pediatric ALL characterized by specific fusion architecture and an unfavorable co-mutation pattern. Beyond its diagnostic value, MTAP-r represents a promising biomarker for trial enrollment and future risk-adapted strategies. Confirmation of independent prognostic impact and therapeutic utility will require multivariable analyses and prospective, biomarker-driven studies.
