Abstract
Cancer is a major public health concern worldwide in terms of mortality. The exact reason behind the development of cancer is not understood clearly, but it is evidenced that alcohol consumption, radiation, and exposure to chemicals are main players in this pathogenesis. The current mode of treatments such as surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy are effective, but, still, cancer is a major problem leading to death and other side effects. However, safer and effective treatment modules are needed to overcome the adverse effects of current treatment modules. In this regard, natural compounds have been recognized to ameliorate diseases by exerting anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, and anti-tumor potential through several mechanisms. Mangiferin, a xanthone C-glucoside, is found in several plant species including Mangifera indica (mango), and its role in disease prevention has been confirmed through its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Furthermore, its anti-cancer-potential mechanism has been designated through modulation of cell signaling pathways such as inflammation, angiogenesis, PI3K/AKT, apoptosis, and cell cycle. This article extensively reviews the anticancer potential of mangiferin in different cancers through the modulation of cell signaling pathways. Moreover, the synergistic effects of this compound with some commonly used anti-cancer drugs against different cancer cells are discussed. More clinical trials should be performed to reconnoiter the anti-cancer potential of this compound in human cancer treatment. Further, understanding of mechanisms of action and the safety level of this compound can help to manage diseases, including cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Testing for EGFR, ALK, ROS1 and MET alterations in paired tissue and plasma samples of treatment-naïve patients of NSCLC and correlating their status with overall survival. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred treatment-naïve patients were recruited after obtaining informed consent. Ten ml of blood was collected within a period of two weeks from histological diagnosis, prior to the start of any treatment. DNA & RNA extraction was done from formalin-fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue and total cell-free nucleic acid extraction was done from plasma samples. EGFR mutation, ALK, ROS1 and MET rearrangements were tested by ARMS (Amplification Refractory Mutation System) PCR. All statistical analyses were conducted in R version 4.1.1. RESULTS A total of 61 cases showed molecular alterations in tissue samples which included EGFR mutations (47), ALK rearrangements (12), ROS1 fusion (2). MET alteration was not detected. Forty-three cases showed EGFR mutations in plasma, 26 of which were concurrently positive in tissue. Concordance observed was 62%. ALK-EML4 rearrangement, ROS1 fusion and MET were not detected in plasma samples. Sensitivity and specificity for detection of EGFR mutation in plasma were 55.3% and 67.9% respectively. Univariate Cox regression analysis showed a positive association between EGFR mutation in tissue and overall survival (HR = 0.4; 95% CI: 0.2-0.7; p = 0.003) and improved overall survival in those who received targeted therapy (HR = 0.29; 95% CI: 0.1-0.8; p = 0.02). CONCLUSION Concurrent testing in tissue and liquid biopsy in NSCLC increased the detection of EGFR mutations (47% to 64%). This has substantial implications in deciding treatment and administration targeted therapy and the consequent overall survival.

Abstract
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Despite advances in treatment, the prognosis remains poor, highlighting the need for novel therapeutic strategies. The present review explores the potential of targeted epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) nanotherapy as an alternative treatment for NSCLC, showing that EGFR-targeted nanoparticles are efficiently taken up by NSCLC cells, leading to a significant reduction in tumor growth in mouse models. Consequently, we suggest that targeted EGFR nanotherapy could be an innovative treatment strategy for NSCLC; however, further studies are needed to optimize the nanoparticles and evaluate their safety and efficacy in clinical settings and human trials.

Abstract
A potential non-invasive technique for identifying and tracking cancer is a liquid biopsy. This review article provides a comprehensive overview of the principles, applications, and challenges associated with liquid biopsies. The circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA), circulating tumour cells (CTCs), exosomes, and microRNAs are just a few of the biomarkers we cover in this article that are discovered in liquid biopsies. The clinical application of liquid biopsies in many stages of cancer management, including early cancer identification, therapy selection and response monitoring, and minimum residual illness, is also investigated. The technical advancements in liquid biopsy techniques, including digital polymerase chain reaction (dPCR) and next-generation sequencing (NGS), have improved the sensitivity and specificity of biomarker identification. Liquid biopsies require assistance with cost-effectiveness, sensitivity, and standardisation despite the potential benefits. We talk about these restrictions and potential solutions. In conclusion, liquid biopsies revolutionise personalised therapies and cancer diagnostics by providing a real-time, non-invasive tool for characterising and monitoring tumours. It will be possible to expand the use of liquid biopsies in clinical practises by having a better understanding of their current state and predicted future developments.

Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:cancers15051445. [PMID: 36900237 PMCID: PMC10000691 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15051445] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2023] [Revised: 02/18/2023] [Accepted: 02/22/2023] [Indexed: 03/02/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Detection of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) T790M mutation using plasma samples has been considered simple and non-invasive, but the relatively high false negative results lead to additional tissue sampling in some patients. Until now, the characteristics of patients who prefer liquid biopsy have not yet been established. METHODS To evaluate the favorable conditions for the detection of T790M mutations using plasma samples, a multicenter retrospective study was performed between May 2018 and December 2021. Patients whose T790M mutation was detected in a plasma sample were classified as the plasma positive group. Study subjects with a T790M mutation not detected in a plasma sample but only in a tissue sample were grouped as the plasma false negative group. RESULTS Plasma positive and plasma false negative groups were found in 74 and 32 patients, respectively. As a result, 40% of patients with one or two metastatic organs at the time of re-biopsy had false negative plasma sample results, and 69% of patients with three or more metastatic organs at the time of re-biopsy had positive plasma results. In multivariate analysis, three or more metastatic organs at initial diagnosis were independently associated with the detection of a T790M mutation using plasma samples. CONCLUSION Our results demonstrated that the detection rate of a T790M mutation using plasma samples was related to the tumor burden, particularly to the number of metastatic organs.

Abstract
Simple Summary Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) is the primary cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Patients carrying Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) mutations usually benefit from targeted therapy treatment. Nonetheless, primary or acquired resistance mechanisms lead to treatment discontinuation and disease progression. Tumor protein 53 (TP53) mutations are the most common mutations in NSCLC, and several reports highlighted a role for these mutations in influencing prognosis and responsiveness to EGFR targeted therapy. In this review, we discuss the emerging data about the role of TP53 in predicting EGFR mutated NSCLC patients’ prognosis and responsiveness to targeted therapy. Abstract Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) is the primary cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Oncogene-addicted patients usually benefit from targeted therapy, but primary and acquired resistance mechanisms inevitably occur. Tumor protein 53 (TP53) gene is the most frequently mutated gene in cancer, including NSCLC. TP53 mutations are able to induce carcinogenesis, tumor development and resistance to therapy, influencing patient prognosis and responsiveness to therapy. TP53 mutants present in different forms, suggesting that different gene alterations confer specific acquired protein functions. In recent years, many associations between different TP53 mutations and responses to Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) targeted therapy in NSCLC patients have been found. In this review, we discuss the current landscape concerning the role of TP53 mutants to guide primary and acquired resistance to Tyrosine-Kinase Inhibitors (TKIs) EGFR-directed, investigating the possible mechanisms of TP53 mutants within the cellular compartments. We also discuss the role of the TP53 mutations in predicting the response to targeted therapy with EGFR-TKIs, as a possible biomarker to guide patient stratification for treatment.
