Primary and secondary resistance to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) reduces its efficacy. The mechanisms underlying immunotherapy resistance are highly complex. In non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), these mechanisms are primarily associated with the loss of programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression, genetic mutations, circular RNA axis and transcription factor regulation, antigen presentation disorders, and dysregulation of signaling pathways.

However, the population who will benefit from PD-1 inhibitors is limited, and their efficacy needs to be further improved. Antiangiogenic agents may regulate tumor microenvironment to improve immunotherapy efficacy.

This study aimed to investigate the clinical outcomes of afatinib at 30 mg/d in the treatment of advanced lung adenocarcinomas (LAD) with common and uncommon epidermal growth factor receptor () mutations.
Methods: -mutated advanced LAD patients receiving afatinib (30 mg/d) from January 2017 to November 2021 were retrospectively included.

Background: Forkhead box protein M1 (FOXM1) is an oncogene regulating tumor growth and metastasis. Exosome was suggested to mediate cell communication by delivering active molecules in cancers. However, the existence of FOXM1 in circulating exosomes and the role of exosome FOXM1 in gastric cancer (GC) were not clear.

Achieving "Responsible Consumption and Production" is one of the 17 sustainable development goals set by the United Nations. Controlling overcapacity is an important guarantee in order to achieve this goal. There are many types and large quantities of raw materials in the construction industry, which easily leads to overcapacity.

Tumor cells with heterogeneity and diversity can express different markers. At present, positive separation of circulating tumor cells (CTC) taking EpCAM as the marker was used in most cases which could be one-sided, while this study successfully prepared four antibody-modified magnetic immunoliposomes (MIL) by using the self-assembled liposome with antibody derivatives. This study aims to explore the separation efficiency and clinical detection feasibility of single or combined use of MIL with multi-tumor markers on different tumors.
