Researchers identified three distinct molecular phenotypes of small cell lung cancer that could help stratify patients for targeted therapy. Only patients with ANXA1Low infiltrated phenotype derived significant survival benefit from chemotherapy plus immune checkpoint inhibitors. Separate research found that targeting epigenetic regulators like PRC2 and G9a/GLP could enhance treatment efficacy.

Research reveals therapy-induced senescent cancer cells and the integrated stress response pathway play dual roles in cancer immunotherapy resistance. The ATF4-LCN2 axis suppresses anti-tumor immunity by promoting immunosuppressive macrophages, while senescent cells can both enhance and inhibit immune responses. These findings highlight new targets for improving immunotherapy efficacy.

A secondary analysis of the Southwest Oncology Group S1609 trial found that larger baseline tumor burden correlated with shorter overall survival but not progression-free survival in rare cancer patients treated with nivolumab plus ipilimumab. The study of 722 patients showed tumor burden was independently associated with survival outcomes but not predictive of tumor regression after dual immunotherapy.

CD28 and CD38 have been identified as new therapeutic targets for peripheral T-cell lymphomas, with a trispecific antibody showing in vitro efficacy. The targets are expressed in 57% and 42% of PTCL cases respectively, covering most entities. Separately, low CD38 expression on circulating tumor-reactive T cells predicts better response to immune checkpoint inhibitors in lung cancer.
