Review, Journal, PD(L)-1 Biomarker, IO biomarker: Evolving Treatment of Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma in the Asia-Pacific Region: A Review and Multidisciplinary Expert Opinion. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 3, 2021 Now, treatment options have expanded to include immunotherapy, as exemplified by the immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) atezolizumab combined with the antiangiogenic agent bevacizumab...Cost containment and treatment sequencing may be facilitated by characterisation of predictive positive and negative biomarkers. With these considerations in mind, this review and expert opinion focused on advanced HCC in the Asia-Pacific region offers perspectives of multiple stakeholders, including physicians, payer systems, and patients.

Review, Journal: Mitochondrial Dynamics and Liver Cancer. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 3, 2021 In addition, some data are accumulating on the role played by mitochondrial dynamics during cancer development, and specifically on how such dynamics act directly on tumor cells or indirectly on cells responsible for tumor aggression and defense. Here, we review the data that suggest mitochondrial dynamics to be involved in the development of liver tumors.

Review, Journal, Checkpoint inhibition, MSi-H Biomarker, PD(L)-1 Biomarker, IO biomarker: Immune checkpoint inhibitors in endometrial cancer. (Pubmed Central) - Jun 2, 2021 It appears clear that immune check-point inhibitors will have a definite place in the management of EC, both as single agent or in combination with other targeted agents. In this review, we summarize the current evidence of immune check point blockade and the identification of potential biomarkers, beyond MSI-H or MMRd, that could help to predict response to this agents in correlation with the genomic EC subtypes.

Conclusion Our findings highlight novel B7 proteins as actionable immune checkpoint proteins in advanced and metastatic renal cancer cases resistant to current treatments.

(Pubmed Central) - May 21, 2021 Since May 2020, the atezolizumab plus bevacizumab combination (immunotherapy plus anti-VEGF) has become the new reference standard in first-line HCC treatment...Phase III clinical trials have recently suggested the efficacy of novel anti-angiogenic factors such as cabozantinib and ramucirumab as a second-line treatment option...This paper aims to perform a systematic review describing the evolving treatment options for HCC over the last decades, ranging from neoadjuvant treatment to systemic therapy of advanced-stage HCC. With the landscape of HCC treatment shifting towards novel agents the forming of a new therapeutic algorithm for HCC seems to be imperative.
