RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: The chemokine receptor CXCR6 is critical for sustained tumor control mediated by CD8+ cytotoxic T cells (CTLs) in tumors. Previous studies have shown that ionizing radiation induces an inflamed immune contexture by upregulating CXCR6. However, the clinical significance of CXCR6 expression in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and its correlation with radiotherapy remains unknown. This study aimed to clarify the prognostic value of CXCR6 and its role in the breast tumor microenvironment (TME). METHODS: The messenger RNA and protein expression of CXCR6 in human TNBC and their association with survival were analyzed. The role of CXCR6 in the immune context was investigated using a combination of single-cell RNA sequencing, bulk transcriptome sequencing data, and fluorescence-based multiplex immunohistochemistry (mIHC) techniques. RESULTS: Elevated CXCR6 expression correlated with better clinical outcomes and superior response to adjuvant radiotherapy and immunotherapy in TNBC. CXCR6 fostered an immunostimulatory microenvironment characterized by upregulated cytotoxic markers. We also found that CXCR6 plays a crucial role in regulating the differentiation of CD8+ T cells and the intercellular communication of immune cell subtypes, thus shaping the TME. CONCLUSIONS: This study highlights the emerging role of CXCR6 in shaping the TME and targeting CXCR6 may be a promising strategy for improving the effectiveness of radiotherapy and immunotherapy in TNBC.

BACKGROUND: The MONALEESA7 and 2 phase 3 randomized trials demonstrated a statistically significant progressionfree survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) benefit with initial ribociclib + endocrine therapy (ET) versus placebo + ET in pre and postmenopausal patients with hormone receptorpositive (HR+)/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2negative (HER2−) advanced breast cancer (ABC), respectively. Similar trends were observed in Asian subgroup analyses. This phase 2 bridging study of initial ET + ribociclib enrolled pre and postmenopausal patients with HR+/HER2 ABC from China and was conducted to demonstrate consistency of PFS results in a Chinese population relative to the global MONALEESA7 and 2 studies. METHODS: Patients were randomized (1:1) to ET (nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitor + goserelin for premenopausal patients; letrozole for postmenopausal patients) + either ribociclib or placebo. The primary endpoint was investigatorassessed PFS. RESULTS: As of April 25, 2022, the median followup was 34.7 months in both cohorts. In the premenopausal cohort, median PFS was 27.6 months in the ribociclib arm (n = 79) versus 14.7 months in the placebo arm (n = 77) (hazard ratio 0.67 [95% CI: 0.45, 1.01]). In the postmenopausal cohort, median PFS was not reached in the ribociclib arm versus 18.5 months in the placebo arm (n = 77 in each arm) (hazard ratio 0.40 [95% CI: 0.26, 0.62]). Data also suggested improvements in secondary efficacy endpoints, although OS data were not mature. The safety profile in this population was consistent with that in global studies. CONCLUSIONS: These data demonstrate a favorable benefitrisk profile for ribociclib + ET in Chinese patients.

To overcome the severe problems arising from the insufficient light absorption of ultrathin self-assembly active layers and the high cost use of atomic force deposition (ALD)-grown low-leakage-current transport layers, we successfully developed a low-cost, simple and facile strategy of floating-film transfer and multilayer lamination (FFTML) for constructing highly-efficient ALD-free broadband polarization-sensitive organic photodetectors (OPDs) with the two commonly used structures of donor/acceptor planar heterojunction (PHJ) and donor:acceptor multilayer bulk heterojunction (BHJ). It was found that the PHJ-based polarization-sensitive OPD by FFTML possesses a low dark current due to the high carrier injection barrier, indicating it is more suitable to be applied in low polarized light detection scenarios. In contrast, the BHJ-based device by FFTML has a higher spectral responsivity in the whole wavelength due to more photo-excitons transferred to the donor:acceptor interface and dissociated into photoexcited carrirers. Furthermore, the film thickness, which is tuned by increasing lamination number of BHJ layers, has a big effect on the polarization-sensitive photodetection performance. The polarization-sensitive 4-BHJ OPD by FFTML finally achieved a high specific detectivity of 8.33 × 1010Jones, which was much higher than 2.72 × 1010Jones for the 2-BHJ device at 0 V. This work demonstrates that layer-by-layer lamination of self-assembly films can effectively improve the polarized-light detection performance, contributing significantly to the rapid development of the field.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: This randomized, parallel-controlled, double-blinded, phase III equivalence study evaluated the equivalence of a proposed pertuzumab biosimilar QL1209 to the pertuzumab (Perjeta®) each with trastuzumab and docetaxel in neoadjuvant treatment of early or locally advanced breast cancer patients with HER2-positive, ER/PR-negative. METHODS: Eligible patients were randomly (1:1) assigned to receive 4 cycles of neoadjuvant QL1209 or pertuzumab each with trastuzumab and docetaxel, and adjuvant treatment. The primary endpoint was total pathologic complete response (tpCR), with equivalence margins of 0.76 to 1.32. RESULTS: Among the 585 patients enrolled, 257 and 259 patients were assigned to the QL1209 and pertuzumab groups, respectively. The tpCR rates were comparable in the QL1209 (109/255, 42.75%; 90% CI 37.65 to 47.84) and pertuzumab (117/259, 45.17%; 90% CI 40.09 to 50.26) groups. The tpCR risk ratio was 0.95 (90% CI, 0.80 to 1.11), and the 90% CI fell within the predefined equivalence margin. The most common grade ≥3 treatment-related adverse event was decreased neutrophil count (10. 9% vs. 12.7%) in the QL1209 and pertuzumab groups. CONCLUSIONS: QL1209 demonstrated equivalent efficacy and comparable safety profile to the reference pertuzumab in neoadjuvant treatment of HER2-positive, ER/PR-negative, early, or locally advanced breast cancer.

PURPOSE: To assess the diagnostic performance of breast MRI for BI-RADS 4A microcalcifications on mammography and propose a potential clinical pathway to avoid unnecessary biopsies. METHODS: Bibliometrics analysis of breast MRI and BI-RADS 4 was provided. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 139 women and 142 cases of BI-RADS 4A microcalcifications on mammography from Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center. The mammographic BI-RADS level and the MRI reports were compared with the final pathological diagnosis. RESULTS: Much attention has been given to breast MRI and BI-RADS 4 in the literature. However, studies on BI-RADS 4A are limited. Pathological results showed 117 cases (82.4%) were benign lesions, malignant cases of 25 (17.6%) in our study. The positive predictive values (PPV), specificity, sensitivity and negative predictive values (NPV) of MRI were 44.2% (23/52), 75.2% (88/117), 92.0% (23/25), and 97.8% (88/90), respectively. Therefore, 75.2% (88/117) of biopsies for benign lesions could potentially be avoided. There were 2.2% (2/90) malignant lesions missed. Logistic regression indicated that patients who are postmenopausal (HR = 2.655, p = 0.012), have a history of breast cancer (family history) (HR = 2.833, p = 0.029), and exhibit clustered microcalcifications (HR = 2.179, p = 0.046) are more likely to have a higher MRI BI-RADS level. CONCLUSIONS: Breast MRI has the potential to improve the diagnosis of BI-RADS 4A microcalcifications on mammography. We propose a potential clinical pathway that patients with BI-RADS 4A on mammography who are premenopausal, have no personal history of breast cancer (family history) or have non-clustered distribution of calcifications can undergo MRI to avoid unnecessary biopsies.

The randomized, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase III PEONY trial (NCT02586025) demonstrated significantly improved total pathologic complete response (primary endpoint) with dual HER2 blockade in HER2-positive early/locally advanced breast cancer, as previously reported. Here, we present the final, long-term efficacy (secondary endpoints: event-free survival, disease-free survival, overall survival) and safety analysis (62.9 months' median follow-up). Patients (female; n = 329; randomized 2:1) received neoadjuvant pertuzumab/placebo with trastuzumab and docetaxel, followed by adjuvant 5-fluorouracil, epirubicin, and cyclophosphamide, then pertuzumab/placebo with trastuzumab until disease recurrence or unacceptable toxicity, for up to 1 year. Five-year event-free survival estimates are 84.8% with pertuzumab and 73.7% with placebo (hazard ratio 0.53; 95% confidence interval 0.32-0.89); 5-year disease-free survival rates are 86.0% and 75.0%, respectively (hazard ratio 0.52; 95% confidence interval 0.30-0.88). Safety data are consistent with the known pertuzumab safety profile and generally comparable between arms, except for diarrhea. Limitations include the lack of ado-trastuzumab emtansine as an option for patients with residual disease and the descriptive nature of the secondary, long-term efficacy endpoints. PEONY confirms the positive benefit:risk ratio of neoadjuvant/adjuvant pertuzumab, trastuzumab, and docetaxel treatment in this patient population.

AIMS: Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive patients with breast cancer may have different HER2/CEP17 ratios and HER2 copy numbers, with inconsistent responses to anti-HER2 neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT). Our study aimed to explore the relationship between different HER2 fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) patterns in HER2-positive patients with breast cancer and responses to anti-HER2 NACT. METHODS: 527 patients with HER2-positive invasive breast cancer who received anti-HER2 NACT from 2015 to 2022 were included and divided into three groups by FISH results, namely group A: HER2/CEP17<2.0 and HER2 copy numbers ≥6.0, HER2 immunohistochemistry 2/3+; group B: HER2/CEP17≥2.0 and HER2 copy numbers ≥4.0 and <6.0; group C: HER2/CEP17≥2.0 and HER2 copy numbers ≥6.0. We compared clinicopathological characteristics and pathological complete response (pCR) rates of different groups. RESULTS: According to HER2 FISH results, 12 patients (2.3%, 12/527) were in group A, 40 (7.6%, 40/527) were in group B and 475 (90.1%, 475/527) were in group C. The pCR rate was the lowest in group B (5.0%), while the pCR rates in group A and group C were 33.3% and 44.4%, respectively (p (group A vs. B) =0.021, p (group C vs. B) < 0.001). Both univariate and multivariate analyses revealed that HER2 FISH pattern was correlated with pCR rate (p (group C vs. B) < 0.001, p (group C vs. B) = 0.025). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with HER2/CEP17≥2.0 and HER2 copy numbers ≥4.0 and <6.0 do not benefit to the same extent from current anti-HER2 therapies as FISH-positive patients with other patterns.
RESUMEN
Importance: The potential benefit of combining intracranial effective systemic therapy with radiotherapy for patients with breast cancer with brain metastases remains unclear. Objective: To assess the activity and safety of combining radiotherapy with pyrotinib and capecitabine in patients with ERBB2-positive breast cancer and brain metastases. Design, Setting, and Participants: This was a single-arm, single-center, phase 2 nonrandomized clinical trial with a safety run-in phase. Between January 2020 and August 2022, patients with ERBB2-positive breast cancer and brain metastases were enrolled. The data cutoff date was February 1, 2023. Interventions: Patients received either fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy or whole-brain radiotherapy. Treatment with pyrotinib (400 mg, once daily) and capecitabine (1000 mg/m2, twice daily, on days 1-14 of each 21-day cycle) was initiated from the first day of radiotherapy to the seventh day after the completion of radiotherapy and continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxic effects. Main Outcomes and Measures: The primary end point was 1-year central nervous system (CNS) progression-free survival (PFS) rate. Secondary end points included CNS objective response rate (ORR), PFS, overall survival (OS), safety, and changes in neurocognitive function. Results: A total of 40 female patients (median age, 50.5 years [IQR, 46-59 years]) were enrolled and received treatment, including 3 patients in safety run-in phase. With a median follow-up of 17.3 months (IQR, 10.3-26.9), the 1-year CNS PFS rate was 74.9% (95% CI, 61.9%-90.7%), and the median CNS PFS was 18.0 months (95% CI, 15.5 to not reached). The 1-year PFS rate was 66.9% (95% CI, 53.1%-84.2%), and the median PFS was 17.6 months (95% CI, 12.8-34.1). The CNS objective response rate was 85% (34 of 40). Median overall survival was not reached. The most common grade 3 or 4 treatment-related adverse event was diarrhea (7.5%). Asymptomatic radiation necrosis was identified in 4 of 67 lesions (6.0%) treated with fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy. Most patients maintained neurocognitive function, as evaluated by the Mini-Mental State Examination at different points. Conclusions and Relevance: The results of this trial suggest that radiotherapy combined with pyrotinib and capecitabine is associated with long intracranial survival benefit in patients with ERBB2-positive advanced breast cancer and brain metastases with an acceptable safety profile. This combination deserves further validation. Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04582968.

Clinical trials frequently include multiple end points that mature at different times. The initial report, typically based on the primary end point, may be published when key planned co-primary or secondary analyses are not yet available. Clinical trial updates provide an opportunity to disseminate additional results from studies, published in JCO or elsewhere, for which the primary end point has already been reported.Two years of adjuvant abemaciclib combined with endocrine therapy (ET) resulted in a significant improvement in invasive disease-free survival (IDFS) and distant relapse-free survival (DRFS) that persisted beyond the 2-year treatment period in patients with hormone receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative, node-positive, high-risk early breast cancer (EBC). Here, we report 5-year efficacy results from a prespecified overall survival (OS) interim analysis. In the intent-to-treat population, with a median follow-up of 54 months, the benefit of abemaciclib was sustained with hazard ratios of 0.680 (95% CI, 0.599 to 0.772) for IDFS and 0.675 (95% CI, 0.588 to 0.774) for DRFS. This persistence of abemaciclib benefit translated to continuous separation of the curves with a deepening in 5-year absolute improvement in IDFS and DRFS rates of 7.6% and 6.7%, respectively, compared with rates of 6% and 5.3% at 4 years and 4.8% and 4.1% at 3 years. With fewer deaths in the abemaciclib plus ET arm compared with the ET-alone arm (208 v 234), statistical significance was not reached for OS. No new safety signals were observed. In conclusion, abemaciclib plus ET continued to reduce the risk of developing invasive and distant disease recurrence beyond the completion of treatment. The increasing absolute improvement at 5 years is consistent with a carryover effect and further supports the use of abemaciclib in patients with high-risk EBC.

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most lethal subtype of breast cancer with no targeted therapy. Spermatid perinuclear RNA binding protein (STRBP), a poorly characterized RNA-binding protein (RBP), has an essential role in normal spermatogenesis and sperm function, but whether and how its dysregulation contributing to cancer progression has not yet been explored. Here, we report that STRBP functions as a novel oncogene to drive TNBC progression. STRBP expression was upregulated in TNBC tissues and correlated with poor disease prognosis. Functionally, STRBP promoted TNBC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro, and enhanced xenograft tumor growth and lung colonization in mice. Mechanistically, STRBP interacted with Dicer, a core component of the microRNA biogenesis machinery, and promoted its proteasomal degradation through enhancing its interaction with E3 ubiquitin ligase UBR5. MicroRNA-sequencing analysis identified miR-200a-3p as a downstream effector of STRBP, which was regulated by Dicer and affected epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Importantly, the impaired malignant phenotypes of TNBC cells caused by STRBP depletion were largely rescued by knockdown of Dicer, and these effects were compromised by transfection of miR-200a-3p mimics. Collectively, these findings revealed a previously unrecognized oncogenic role of STRBP in TNBC progression and identified STRBP as a promising target against TNBC.

BACKGROUND: The liver ranks as the sixth most prevalent site of primary cancer in humans, and it frequently experiences metastases from cancers originating in other organs. To facilitate the development of effective treatments and improve survival rates, it is crucial to comprehend the intricate and diverse transcriptome landscape of primary and metastatic liver cancers. METHODS: We conducted long-read isoform sequencing and short-read RNA sequencing using a cohort of 95 patients with primary and secondary liver cancer who underwent hepatic resection. We compared the transcriptome landscapes of primary and metastatic liver cancers and systematically investigated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), paired primary tumours and liver metastases, and matched nontumour liver tissues. RESULTS: We elucidated the full-length isoform-level transcriptome of primary and metastatic liver cancers in humans. Our analysis revealed isoform-level diversity in HCC and identified transcriptome variations associated with liver metastatis. Specific RNA transcripts and isoform switching events with clinical implications were profound in liver cancer. Moreover, we defined metastasis-specific transcripts that may serve as predictors of risk of metastasis. Additionally, we observed abnormalities in adjacent paracancerous liver tissues and characterized the immunological and metabolic alterations occurring in the liver. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings underscore the power of full-length transcriptome profiling in providing novel biological insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying tumourigenesis. These insights will further contribute to improving treatment strategies for primary and metastatic liver cancers.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Supraclavicular nodal (SCL) irradiation is commonly used for patients with high-risk breast cancer after breast surgery. The Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) and European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology (ESTRO) breast contouring atlases delineate the medial part of the SCL region, while excluding the posterolateral part. However, recent studies have found that a substantial proportion of SCL failures are located in the posterolateral SCL region, outside of the RTOG/ESTRO-defined SCL target volumes. Consequently, many radiation oncologists advocate for enlarging the SCL irradiation target volume to include both the medial and posterolateral SCL regions. Nevertheless, it remains uncertain whether adding the posterolateral SCL irradiation improves survival outcomes for high-risk breast cancer patients. METHODS: The SUCLANODE trial is an open-label, multicenter, randomized, phase 3 trial comparing the efficacy and adverse events of medial SCL irradiation (M-SCLI group) and medial plus posterolateral SCL irradiation (entire SCL irradiation, E-SCLI group) in high-risk breast cancer patients who underwent breast conserving-surgery or mastectomy. Patients with pathological N2-3b disease following initial surgery, or clinical stage III or pathological N1-3b if receiving neoadjuvant systemic therapy, are eligible and randomly assigned (1:1) to M-SCLI group and E-SCLI group. Stratification is by chemotherapy sequence (neoadjuvant vs. adjuvant), T stage (T3-4 vs. T1-2), N stage (N1-2 vs. N3), and ER status (positive vs. negative). Other radiation volumes are identical in the two arms, including breast/chest wall, undissected axillary lymph node, and internal mammary node. Advanced intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT), or tomotherapy techniques are recommended. Both hypofractionated and conventional fractionation schedules are permitted. The primary end point is invasive disease-free survival, and secondary end points included overall survival, SCL recurrence, local-regional recurrence, distance recurrence, safety outcome, and patient-reported outcomes. The target sample size is 1650 participants. DISCUSSION: The results of the SUCLANODE trial will provide high-level evidence regarding whether adding posterolateral SCL irradiation to medial SCL target volume provides survival benefit in patients with high-risk breast cancer.

Background: The antibody-drug conjugate (ADCs) trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) is approved for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer (mBC) previously treated with trastuzumab and a taxane. The phase III ELAINA trial aimed to determine the clinical utility of T-DM1 in Chinese patients. Methods: ELAINA was a randomized, multicenter, open-label bridging study of Chinese patients with HER2-positive locally advanced breast cancer (LABC) or mBC previously treated with trastuzumab and a taxane. Using an interactive voice/internet response system, patients were randomized 3:1 to receive T-DM1 or lapatinib plus capecitabine. Patents were stratified by number of prior therapies in this disease setting and by presence of visceral disease using a permuted block randomization scheme. Patients received treatment until disease progression, unmanageable toxicity, or study termination. After that, data on survival and subsequent cancer therapies were collected at approximately 3-month intervals. The primary endpoint was investigator-assessed progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary endpoints were overall response rate, duration of response, overall survival (OS), safety, patient-reported quality of life, and pharmacokinetics (PKs). Results: ELAINA was fully enrolled with 200 patients randomized to T-DM1 (n=151) or lapatinib plus capecitabine (n=49). Median treatment duration was approximately 6 months in each study arm. Median follow-up time was approximately 9 months for all analyses except for OS. T-DM1 was associated with a 15% reduction in risk of disease progression or death compared with lapatinib plus capecitabine [stratified hazard ratio (HR) =0.85; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.56-1.29] in the intent-to-treat (ITT) population. The objective response rate (ORR) was similar with T-DM1 (50.4%) and lapatinib plus capecitabine (55.8%); median duration of response was 8.4 months for both treatments. At a median follow-up time of approximately 30 months, OS was similar in each treatment arm. Incidence of grade ≥3 adverse events (AEs) was similar with T-DM1 (54.3%) and lapatinib plus capecitabine (57.1%). Grade ≥3 thrombocytopenia was greater with T-DM1 (40.4%) than with lapatinib plus capecitabine (4.1%); there was no grade ≥3 hemorrhage with either treatment. Conclusions: T-DM1 demonstrated an acceptable benefit-risk profile in Chinese patients with HER2-positive LABC/mBC previously treated with trastuzumab and a taxane. T-DM1 therefore provides a chemotherapy-free option in this setting. Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03084939.
