Tumor diseases become a huge problem when they embark on path that advances to malignancy, such as the process of metastasis. Cancer metastasis has been thoroughly investigated from biological perspective in past, whereas it still less explored physical perspective. Until now, intraluminal pathway cancer received most attention, while interaction cells with macrophages little attention. Apart biochemical characteristics, tumor treatments also rely microenvironment, which is recognized be immunosuppressive and, recently found, mechanically stimulates and thus alters their functions. The review article highlights other vascular metastatic route discusses impact this intercellular interplay mechanical characteristics subsequently functionality cells. For instance, can guide intravascular metastasis, whereby help circumvent adverse conditions within blood or lymphatic vessels.

Moreover, effects flows are presented, influences, characterized. Finally, increased knowledge opens up new perspectives for treatment.

Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) play a crucial role in cellular signaling and oncogenic progression. Epidermal growth factor receptor kinase inhibitors (EGFR TKIs) have become the standard treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with EGFR-sensitizing mutations, but resistance frequently emerges between 10 to 14 months. A significant this is of human EGFR 3 (HER3), an family member. Despite its significance, effective targeting HER3 still developing. This review aims bridge gap by deeply examining HER3’s pivotal contribution TKI spotlighting emerging HER3-centered therapeutic avenues, including monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), TKIs, antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). Preliminary results indicate combining HER3-specific treatments TKIs enhances antitumor effects, leading increased objective response rate (ORR) prolonged overall survival (OS) resistant cases. Embracing HER3-targeting therapies represents transformative approach against emphasizes importance further research optimize patient stratification understand mechanisms.

Pancreatic cancer is the sixth leading cause of cancer-related mortality globally. As most common form pancreatic cancer, ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) represents up to 95% all cases, accounting for more than 300,000 deaths annually. Due lack early diagnoses and high refractory response currently available treatments, PDAC has a very poor prognosis, with 5-year overall survival rate less 10%. Targeted therapy immunotherapy are highly effective have been used treatment many types cancer; however, they offer limited benefits in patients due tumor-intrinsic extrinsic factors that culminate drug resistance. The identification key responsible growth resistance different treatments valuable developing new therapeutic strategies. In this review, we discuss some molecules which promote initiation progression, their potential as targets treatment. We also evaluate challenges associated patient outcomes clinical trials implications future research.

Abstract Breast cancer has become the most commonly diagnosed cancer. The intra‐ and interpatient heterogeneity induced a considerable variation in treatment efficacy. There is an urgent requirement for preclinical models to anticipate effectiveness of individualized drug responses. Patient‐derived organoids (PDOs) can accurately recapitulate architecture biological characteristics origin tumor, making them promising model that overtake many limitations cell lines PDXs. However, it still unclear whether PDOs‐based testing benefit breast patients, particularly those with tumor recurrence or resistance. Fresh samples were surgically resected organoid culture.
