Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy has achieved breakthroughs in the treatment of advanced non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Nevertheless, low response due to immuno-cold (i.e., tumors with limited tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes) tumor microenvironment (TME) largely limits application ICB therapy. Based on glycolytic/cholesterol synthesis axis, a stratification framework for EGFR-WT NSCLC was developed summarize metabolic features and immuno-hot tumors. The cholesterol subgroup displays worst prognosis NSCLC, significant enrichment gene signature, indicating that targeting is essential NSCLC. Statin, inhibitor synthesis, can suppress aggressiveness vitro vivo also drastically reverse phenotype an inflamed vivo. This change led higher Moreover, both our in-house data meta-analysis further support statin significantly enhance efficacy.

Muscle-invasive urothelial cancer (MUC), characterized by high aggressiveness and significant heterogeneity, is currently lacking highly precise individualized treatment options. We used a computational pipeline to synthesize multiomics data from MUC patients using 10 clustering algorithms, which were then combined with machine learning algorithms identify molecular subgroups of resolution develop robust consensus learning-driven signature (CMLS). Through clustering, we identified three subtypes (CSs) that are related prognosis, CS2 exhibiting the most favorable prognostic outcome. Subsequent screening enabled identification 12 hub genes constitute CMLS predictive power for prognosis. The low-CMLS group exhibited more prognosis greater responsiveness immunotherapy was likely exhibit "hot tumor" phenotype. high-CMLS had poor lower likelihood benefitting immunotherapy, but dasatinib romidepsin may serve as promising treatments them.
