Article Abstract

Background: MET and KRAS comutation in the same group of cells of primary tracheal adenoid cystic carcinoma is extremely rare; there is no standard of care for patient with metastatic disease.

Case Presentation: We report a 42-year-old treatment-naïve Chinese male patient with metastatic tracheal adenoid cystic carcinoma harboring a MET p.D1010Y and KRAS p.G12C comutation. The patient responded well to the MET inhibitor crizotinib and MEK inhibitor trametinib combination therapy, but had progression when he discontinued trametinib because of grade III rashes on the face and trunk. With the reintroduction of trametinib with a dose reduction, his metastatic lesions shrank after 2 months of therapy.

Conclusion: MET p.D1010Y and KRAS p.G12C comutation is extremely rare and could happen concurrently in the same group of cells of metastatic tracheal adenoid cystic carcinoma; crizotinib combined with trametinib is effective, and the toxicities are manageable.

Management of recurrent adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) in elderly patients remains challenging due to comorbidities, functional impairments, and anatomically complex tumor locations that complicate surgical access and increase operative risk. The ZAP-X Gyroscopic Radiosurgery System (ZAP Surgical Systems, Inc., San Carlos, CA, USA) offers a highly precise, non-invasive treatment modality, potentially suitable for salvage therapy in previously irradiated fields and in medically inoperable patients.

Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is a lethal salivary gland malignant neoplasm. Lung metastasis is the primary cause of mortality in ACC patients while there is no effective treatment available at present. In this study, a precise and biomimetic nanoplatform, CG/MC/U-M, is designed to combine cuproptosis, gas therapy and immunotherapy against metastatic adenoid cystic carcinoma.

Background: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) comprises subgroups with distinct characteristics and histological types. Tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) concentration and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression are prognostic factors for TNBC. We analyzed the association of immune cell PD-L1 expression, in relation to histological type and TIL concentration, with TNBC outcomes.
