Neoadjuvant Adebrelimab plus SOX and Nab-Pac in Resectable LA-G/GEJ Adenocarcinoma: A Single-arm, Phase II Trial (Poster venue | Pacifico Yokohama Exhibition Hall D) - Mar 2, 2026 - Abstract #JSMO2026JSMO_1550; P3 The KEYNOTE-585 study reported that the neoadjuvant and adjuvant pembrolizumab plus cisplatin-based chemotherapy group achieved a higher pathological complete response rate than the placebo plus cisplatin-based chemotherapy group...We explored that neoadjuvant adebrelimab(an anti-PD-L1 antibody) plus SOX (S-1 and oxaliplatin) and nab-paclitaxel would improve the pathological complete response rate of patients with resectable locally advanced gastric and gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma...Secondary research endpoints include: major pathologic response, objective response rate, R0 resection rate, disease-free survival, overall survival, and safety. Exploratory endpoints include: the relationship between survival and ctDNA post-preoperative treatment; survival and MRD post-curative surgery; and the expression of peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets and prognosis.

Low-dose CTX combined with standard IST appears to improve the early response rate in SAA/VSAA patients with manageable toxicity.

- |||||||||| Review, Journal: Cyclin-Dependent 4/6 Kinase Inhibitors for Treatment of HER2-Positive Breast Cancer: 2026 Update. (Pubmed Central) - Feb 13, 2026
Cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i; palbociclib, ribociclib, abemaciclib, dalpiciclib) combined with endocrine therapy (ET) were a major advance in the treatment of hormone receptor-positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-) metastatic breast cancer (MBC) worldwide...However, clinical development of CDK4/6i in HER2+ MBC slowed, given the advent of highly effective tyrosine-kinase inhibitors (TKIs) (i.e., tucatinib) and antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) (i.e., trastuzumab deruxtecan), which currently dominate the treatment armamentarium...Subsequently, the phase III PATINA trial (which included patients with 1L HR+HER2+ MBC, treated with palbociclib vs. placebo with maintenance ET+ H[P]) noted a striking PFS improvement of >15 months in the palbociclib arm, renewing interest in CDK4/6i-based treatments for HR+HER2+ MBC. Herein, we review the development of CDK4/6i in HER2+ BC, discussing current challenges and potential future directions.

The following TKIs were evaluated: cabozantinib, regorafenib, apatinib, anlotinib, sorafenib, lenvatinib, sunitinib, fruquintinib, and imatinib...Efficacy was consistently seen in both clinical trials and real-world studies. Nonetheless, there are important differences in study design and population that may limit our interpretation of efficacy and toxicity findings.

Journal: CD24 overexpression confers resistance to Pyrotinib through inhibiting autophagy in patients with HER2-positive breast cancer. (Pubmed Central) - Feb 12, 2026 Furthermore, CD24 knockdown reduced its expression level by promoting the ubiquitination modification of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), and significantly inhibited its downstream AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. By interacting with EGFR and modulating the mTOR pathway, CD24 acted as a critical regulator of autophagic cell death, thereby enhancing the sensitivity of HER2+ BC cells and reversing Pyrotinib resistance.
