Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer-related death and it is usually diagnosed in advanced stages (stage III or IV). Recently, availability targeted strategies immunotherapy with checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) has favorably changed patient prognosis. Treatment outcome closely related to tumor biology interaction host immune microenvironment (TME). Whether for therapies response relies on presence specific genetic alterations cells, ICI accurate biomarkers are lacking clinical likely depends multiple factors, tumor-related. This paper an overview ongoing research predictive factors both from in-vitro/ex-vivo analysis (ranging conventional pathology molecular biology) in-vivo analysis, where imaging showing exponential growth use due technological advancement new bioinformatics approaches applied image analyses that allow features recovery subclones.

The aim of this study was to investigate the application [18F]FDG PET/CT images-based textural features analysis propose radiomics models able early predict disease progression (PD) and survival outcome in metastatic colorectal cancer (MCC) patients after first adjuvant therapy. For purpose, 52 MCC who underwent [18F]FDGPET/CT during restaging process therapy were analyzed. Follow-up data recorded for a minimum 12 months PET/CT. Radiomics from each avid lesion PET low-dose CT images extracted. A hybrid descriptive-inferential method discriminant (DA) used feature selection predictive model implementation, respectively. performance predicting PD performed per-lesion analysis, per-patient liver lesions analysis. All again considered assess diagnostic discriminating lesions. In whole group patients, on among only GLZLM_GLNU selected, while three selected set. same resulted more accurately by associating with (AUROC 65.22%). stand-alone one (i.e., HUKurtosis) set selected.

Immune-based treatment approaches are successfully used for the of patients with cancer. While such therapies can be highly effective, many fail to benefit. To provide optimal therapy choices and predict responses, reliable biomarkers assessment immune features in cancer significant importance. Biomarkers (BM) that enable a comprehensive repeatable tumor microenvironment (TME), lymphoid system, dynamics induced by drug fill this gap. Medical imaging, notably positron emission tomography (PET) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), providing whole-body BMs, might deliver BMs. However, those BMs must well characterized as being ‘fit purpose’ intended use. This review provides an overview key steps involved development ‘fit-for-purpose’ applicable development, specific focus on pharmacodynamic assessing TME its modulation immunotherapy. The importance qualification according their context use (COU) defined Food Drug Administration ( FDA ) National Institutes Health Biomarkers, EndpointS, other Tools BEST glossary is highlighted.

Immunotherapy with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has revolutionized contemporary oncology, presenting efficacy in various solid tumors and lymphomas. However, ICIs may potentially overstimulate the system, leading to immune-related adverse events (irAEs). IrAEs affect multiple organs, such as colon, stomach, small intestine, kidneys, skin, lungs, joints, liver, lymph nodes, bone marrow, brain, heart, endocrine glands (e.g., pancreas, thyroid, or adrenal glands), exhibiting autoimmune inflammation. 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) is commonly used oncology for staging assessment of therapy responses, but it also serve a tool detecting irAEs. This review aims present patterns metabolic activation associated irAEs due ICI treatment, identifiable through 18F-FDG PET/CT. It describes advantages early detection irAEs, presents challenges differentiating them from tumor progression. delves into aspects molecular response within context pseudoprogression hyperprogression, along typical imaging findings related these phenomena. Lastly, summarizes role functional PET oncological immunotherapy, speculating on its future significance limitations.

Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women, and some subtypes are associated with a poor prognosis lack of efficacious therapy. Moreover, immunotherapy use other novel antibody‒drug conjugates have been rapidly incorporated into standard management advanced breast cancer. To extract more benefit from these therapies, clarifying monitoring tumor microenvironment (TME) status critical, but this difficult to accomplish based on conventional approaches. Radiomics method wherein radiological image features comprehensively collected assessed build connections disease diagnosis, prognosis, therapy efficacy, TME, etc In recent years, studies focused predicting TME using radiomics increasingly emerged, which demonstrate meaningful results show better capability than methods aspects. Beyond tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, immunophenotypes, cytokines, infiltrating inflammatory factors, stromal components, radiomic models potential provide completely new approach deciphering facilitating by physicians.

The brain is a challenging target for antibody-based positron emission tomography (immunoPET) imaging due to the restricted access of ligands through blood-brain barrier (BBB). To overcome this physiological obstacle, we have previously developed bispecific antibody that pass BBB via receptor-mediated transcytosis. While these radiolabelled high affinity and specificity, their long residence time in blood brain, typical large molecules, poses another challenge PET imaging. A viable solution could be two-step pre-targeting approach which involves administration tagged accumulates at site then clears from blood, followed by small molecule with fast kinetics. This can couple thereby make localisation visible vivo linkage achieved using inverse electron demand Diels-Alder reaction (IEDDA), trans-cyclooctene (TCO) tetrazine groups participating as reactants.
