Journal, PD(L)-1 Biomarker, IO biomarker, Metastases, Discordant: Concordance of PD-L1 Expression in Metastatic Triple-negative Breast Cancer Between the 22C3 and E1L3N Antibodies Using Combined Positive Scoring. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 1, 2024 For patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), treatment with pembrolizumab is dependent on the accurate determination of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression using immunohistochemistry (IHC)...In conclusion, concordance between E1L3N and 22C3 testing using CPS for PD-L1 in metastatic TNBC was >90%. However, certain cases were challenging to agree upon using current threshold criteria, highlighting the need for more standardized evidence-based methods to assess PD-L1 expression.

Journal: Combined transarterial chemoembolization and tislelizumab for patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 1, 2024 Further studies are necessary to determine whether this regimen will improve outcomes of relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma patients. The combination of TACE and tislelizumab, with or without targeted therapy, demonstrated promising efficacy and safety in unresectable HCC, especially in immunotherapy-naive patients, warranting further prospective validation studies.

Journal, Immunomodulating: Immunomodulatory treatment may change functional and structural brain imaging in severe mental disorders. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 1, 2024 VBM analysis identified two clusters with increased grey matter volumes (GMV) after rituximab, one in right insula overlapping one of the seed regions with significant rsFC changes. This pilot study implies that rituximab may influence both brain structure and connectivity and that GMV changes and rsFC changes are regionally associated.

CD73 inhibition enhanced immune surveillance and expanded unique clonotypes of TCR and BCR, indicating that inhibition of CD73 augments adaptive immunity early in the neoplastic microenvironment.
