Abstract
Gene fusions are common in high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC). Such genetic lesions may promote tumorigenesis, but the pathogenic mechanisms are currently poorly understood. Here, we investigated the role of a PIK3R1-CCDC178 fusion identified from a patient with advanced HGSC. We show that the fusion induces HGSC cell migration by regulating ERK1/2 and increases resistance to platinum treatment. Platinum resistance was associated with rod and ring-like cellular structure formation. These structures contained, in addition to the fusion protein, CIN85, a key regulator of PI3K-AKT-mTOR signaling. Our data suggest that the fusion-driven structure formation induces a previously unrecognized cell survival and resistance mechanism, which depends on ERK1/2-activation.

Abstract
The antitumor activity of Ti(IV)-based compounds put them in the spotlight for cancer treatment in the past, but their lack of stability in vivo due to a high rate of hydrolysis has hindered their development as antitumor drugs. As a possible solution for this problem, we have reported a synthesis strategy through which we combined a titanocene fragment, a tridentate ligand, and a long aliphatic chain. This strategy allowed us to generate a titanium compound (Myr-Ti) capable of interacting with albumin, highly stable in water and with cytotoxic activity in tumor cells[1]. Following a similar strategy, now we report the synthesis of a new compound (Myr-TiY) derived from titanocene Y that shows antitumoral activity in a cisplatin resistant model with a 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 41-76 μM. This new compound shows high stability and a strong interaction with human serum albumin. Myr-TiY has a significant antiproliferative and proapoptotic effect on the tested cancer cells and shows potential tumor selectivity when assayed in non-tumor human epithelial cells being more selective (1.3-3.8 times) for tumor cells than cisplatin. These results lead us to think that the described synthesis strategy could be useful to generate compounds for the treatment of both cisplatin-sensitive and cisplatin-resistant cancers.

Abstract
Nutrition assessment is crucial for dietary guidance and prevention of malnutrition. Recent endeavors in wearable biochemical sensors have enabled real-time, in situ analysis of nutrients in sweat. However, the monitoring of riboflavin, an indispensable vitamin B involved in energy metabolism, remains challenging due to its trace level and variations in the sweat matrix. Herein, we report a wireless, battery-free, and flexible wearable biosensing system for the in situ monitoring of sweat riboflavin. Highly sensitive and selective electrochemical voltammetric detection is realized based on the synergistic effect of electrodeposited reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs) with a low detection limit of 1.2 nM. The fully integrated system is capable of sweat sampling with the microfluidic patch, real-time riboflavin analysis and pH calibration with the flexible electrode array, as well as wirelessly simultaneous near field communication (NFC) energy harvesting and data transmission with the flexible circuit and a smartphone. On-body human sweat analysis demonstrates high accuracy cross-validated with gold-standard measurements, and reveals a strong correlation between sweat and urine riboflavin levels. The proposed wearable platform opens up attractive possibilities for noninvasive nutrient tracking, providing strong potential for personalized dietary guidance towards precision nutrition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Immune checkpoint inhibitors have changed previous treatment paradigm of advanced urothelial carcinoma (UC). The ARON-2 study (NCT05290038) aimed to assess the real-world effectiveness of pembrolizumab in patients recurred or progressed after platinum-based chemotherapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS Medical records of patients with documented metastatic UC treated by pembrolizumab as second-line therapy were retrospectively collected from 88 institutions in 23 countries. Patients were assessed for overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall response rate (ORR). Cox proportional hazards models were adopted to explore the presence of prognostic factors. RESULTS In total, 836 patients were included: 544 patients (65%) received pembrolizumab after progression to first-line platinum-based chemotherapy in the metastatic setting (cohort A) and 292 (35%) after recurring within < 12 months since the completion of adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy (cohort B). The median follow-up time was 15.3 months. The median OS and the ORR were 10.5 months and 31% in the overall study population, 9.1 months and 29% in cohort A and 14.6 months and 37% in cohort B. At multivariate analysis, ECOG-PS ≥ 2, bone metastases, liver metastases and pembrolizumab setting (cohort A vs B) proved to be significantly associated with worst OS and PFS. Stratified by the presence of 0, 1-2 or 3-4 prognostic factors, the median OS was 29.4, 12.5 and 4.1 months (p < 0.001), while the median PFS was 12.2, 6.4 and 2.8 months, respectively (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Our study confirms that pembrolizumab is effective in the advanced UC real-world context, showing outcome differences between patients recurred or progressed after platinum-based chemotherapy.

Abstract
Wearable long-term monitoring applications are becoming more and more popular in both the consumer and the medical market. In wearable ECG monitoring, the data quality depends on the properties of the electrodes and on how they interface with the skin. Dry electrodes do not require any action from the user. They usually do not irritate the skin, and they provide sufficiently high-quality data for ECG monitoring purposes during low-intensity user activity. We investigated prospective motion artifact-resistant dry electrode materials for wearable ECG monitoring. The tested materials were (1) porous: conductive polymer, conductive silver fabric; and (2) solid: stainless steel, silver, and platinum. ECG was acquired from test subjects in a 10-min continuous settling test and in a 48-h intermittent long-term test. In the settling test, the electrodes were stationary, whereas both stationary and controlled motion artifact tests were included in the long-term test. The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) was used as the figure of merit to quantify the results. Skin-electrode interface impedance was measured to quantify its effect on the ECG, as well as to leverage the dry electrode ECG amplifier design. The SNR of all electrode types increased during the settling test. In the long-term test, the SNR was generally elevated further. The introduction of electrode movement reduced the SNR markedly. Solid electrodes had a higher SNR and lower skin-electrode impedance than porous electrodes. In the stationary testing, stainless steel showed the highest SNR, followed by platinum, silver, conductive polymer, and conductive fabric. In the movement testing, the order was platinum, stainless steel, silver, conductive polymer, and conductive fabric.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the clinical characteristics and prognosis of 17 patients with pathologically confirmed SMARCA4-deficient chest tumors. Methods: Seventeen patients with SMARCA4-deficient thoracic tumors diagnosed by pathology in the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University from September 2021 to January 2023 were collected through Results Query System of Pathology Department, and the patients' general conditions, clinical symptoms, tumor markers, imaging features, treatment and regression were retrospectively analyzed, and literature review was performed. Results: A total of 17 patients were included in this study. Their clinical characteristics were characterized as follows: male/female=16/1, age 42-74 years, mean (64.0±5.7)years. Only 1 female had no clear smoking history, and 16 males had a smoking history, of whom 1 had 5 smoking pack-years, and the remaining 15 case had a smoking history of 20-100 smoking pack-years, with a mean of (68.5±44.5) smoking pack-years. Clinical symptoms were mainly cough and sputum, followed by chest tightness, hemoptysis and chest pain. Tumor markers CYFRA19-9 was elevated in 9 cases (3.79-16.61 ng/ml), CEA was elevated in 8 cases (5.37-295.93 ng/ml), and NSE was elevated in 6 cases (17.18-70.37 ng/ml). Imaging manifestations were intrapulmonary or mediastinal mass shadows, and the tumor involved the mediastinum in 9 cases, the upper lobe of the right lung in 6 cases, the upper lobe of the left lung in 5 cases, the lower lobe of the right lung in 3 cases, the lower lobe of the left lung in 3 cases; cervical or supraclavicular lymph node metastasis in 8 cases, pleural metastasis in 4 cases, hepatic metastasis in 3 cases, cerebral metastasis in 3 cases, bone metastasis in 2 cases, and subcutaneous metastasis in 1 case. Combining immuno-histochemistry and pathology, there were 6 cases of SMARCA4-deficient NSCLC and 11 cases of SMARCA4-deficient undifferentiated tumor. Eight patients were treated with platinum-contained chemotherapy agents, four of which were combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors, and one was treated with enzatinib; only one of the 9 patients achieved partial remission after treatment, and the remaining eight had progression of the tumors on chest CT after treatment. Five patients abandoned the treatment, and died in 6-month of follow-up. Three patients underwent surgery for resection, and there was no significant progression in the three patients in the 6 months of follow-up. Conclusions: Clinically, middle-aged and elderly men with a history of heavy smoking should be given high priority, especially in patients whose imaging mostly showed intrapulmonary, especially in upper lobes, and/or mediastinal masses, rapid lesion progression, and early distant metastasis, and who should be alerted to the possibility of SMARCA4-deficient thoracic tumors. Late clinical stage is a high risk factor for poor overall patient survival, and platinum-containing chemotherapy agents combined with immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy may be effective, and early surgery may improve patient prognosis.

Abstract
DNA adducting drugs, including alkylating agents and platinum-containing drugs, are prominent in cancer chemotherapy. Their mechanisms of action involve direct interaction with DNA, resulting in the formation of DNA addition products known as DNA adducts. While these adducts are well-accepted to induce cancer cell death, understanding of their specific chemotypes and their role in drug therapy response remain limited. This perspective aims to address this gap by investigating the metabolic activation and chemical characterization of DNA adducts formed by the U.S. FDA-approved drugs. Moreover, clinical studies on DNA adducts as potential biomarkers for predicting patient responses to drug efficacy are examined. The overarching goal is to engage the interest of medicinal chemists and stimulate further research into the use of DNA adducts as biomarkers for guiding personalized cancer treatment.

Abstract
This article is presenting completely new observations linked to Polysorbate 80 (PS80) oxidation in biologics drug product. Indeed, we observed that, in the drug product exposed to long contact time (∼ 1 h) in platinum-cured silicon tubing during the filling, the oxidation of PS80 is dramatically accelerated compared to short contact time. The phenomenon was observed in presence of iron traces (20 ppb), but not in absence of iron (< 2 ppb) or in presence of a chelator like EDTA. Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) measurements demonstrated the presence of radicals formed during the oxidation. It was deduced that platinum-cured silicon tubing is leaching some radical initiators, most probably peroxides decomposed by the iron. Alternative filling sets made of ThermoPlastic Elastomer (TPE) were investigated, both for the impact on PS80 stability and the filling performance using a peristaltic pump. The results showed that these filling sets were indeed not causing accelerated PS80 degradation but the process was not robust enough; these filling sets being too rigid for the constraints of the peristaltic pump rollers. These results show that there is no practical tubing alternative to platinum silicone cured tubing. To avoid the impact on PS80 oxidation the potential remediations presented in the article are to avoid any trace of iron or to add a chelating agent, or to discard the vials having experimented a filling stop (> 5 min).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Platinum-based chemotherapy, a widely used backbone of systemic cytotoxic anticancer treatment, is associated with nephrotoxicity. Currently, renal function is generally assessed prior to each administration of cisplatin or carboplatin, but there is no guideline regarding the frequency of renal function determination. OBJECTIVE The primary objective was to determine the median time to a clinically relevant dosage adjustment (>10%) due to change in renal function in patients treated with cisplatin and carboplatin. Secondly, variables influencing changes in renal function were assessed. METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis of serial renal function assessments in platinum-treated patients with cancer in two academic medical centers, using a query to extract data from the electronic health records between 2017 and 2019. RESULTS In total, 512 patients receiving cisplatin and 628 patients receiving carboplatin were included. In total, 15% of all cisplatin-treated patients were found to have a renal function less than 60 mL/min at least once during treatment, with a median time to renal function decline of 67 days (range 5-96 days), which did not differ between treatment regimens. For carboplatin 21% of patients were found to have had a dosage variation of more than 10% at least once during treatment, with a median time-to-event period of 64 days (range 5-100 days). INTERPRETATION Dose adjustments during platinum-based chemotherapy resulting from renal function decline occur after a median time of ≥64 days. Our data provide substantiated guidance to recommend renal function assessment during platinum-based chemotherapy in clinically stable patients to once every 3 weeks.

Abstract
Micromotor (MM) technology offers a valuable and smart on-the-move biosensing microscale approach in clinical settings where sample availability is scarce in the case of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Soluble amyloid-β protein oligomers (AβO) (mainly AβO42) that circulate in biological fluids have been recognized as a molecular biomarker and therapeutic target of AD due to their high toxicity, and they are correlated much more strongly with AD compared to the insoluble Aβ monomers. A graphene oxide (GO)-gold nanoparticles (AuNPs)/nickel (Ni)/platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs) micromotors (MMGO-AuNPs)-based electrochemical label-free aptassay is proposed for sensitive, accurate, and rapid determination of AβO42 in complex clinical samples such as brain tissue, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and plasma from AD patients. An approach that implies the in situ formation of AuNPs on the GO external layer of tubular MM in only one step during MM electrosynthesis was performed (MMGO-AuNPs). The AβO42 specific thiolated-aptamer (AptAβO42) was immobilized in the MMGO-AuNPs via Au-S interaction, allowing for the selective recognition of the AβO42 (MMGO-AuNPs-AptAβO42-AβO42). AuNPs were smartly used not only to covalently bind a specific thiolated-aptamer for the design of a label-free electrochemical aptassay but also to improve the final MM propulsion performance due to their catalytic activity (approximately 2.0× speed). This on-the-move bioplatform provided a fast (5 min), selective, precise (RSD < 8%), and accurate quantification of AβO42 (recoveries 94-102%) with excellent sensitivity (LOD = 0.10 pg mL-1) and wide linear range (0.5-500 pg mL-1) in ultralow volumes of the clinical sample of AD patients (5 μL), without any dilution. Remarkably, our MM-based bioplatform demonstrated the competitiveness for the determination of AβO42 in the target samples against the dot blot analysis, which requires more than 14 h to provide qualitative results only. It is also important to highlight its applicability to the potential analysis of liquid biopsies as plasma and CSF samples, improving the reliability of the diagnosis given the heterogeneity and temporal complexity of neurodegenerative diseases. The excellent results obtained demonstrate the analytical potency of our approach as a future tool for clinical/POCT (Point-of-care testing) routine scenarios.

Abstract
Cholesterol is an important lipid compound found in a variety of foods, and its level in human blood is closely related to human health. Therefore, development of rapid and accurate POCT (point-of-care testing) methods for cholesterol detection is crucial for assessing food quality and early diagnosis of diseases, in particular, in a resource-limited environment. In this study, a smartphone-assisted colorimetric biosensor is constructed based on platinum,phosphorus-codoped carbon nitride (PtCNP2) for the rapid detection of cholesterol. Phosphorus-doped carbon nitride is prepared by thermal annealing of urea and NH4PF6, into which platinum is atomically dispersed by thermal refluxing. The obtained PtCNP2 exhibits an excellent peroxidase-like activity under physiological pH, whereby colorless o-phenylenediamine (OPD) is oxidized to colored 2,3-diaminophenazine (DAP) in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), which can be produced during the oxidation of cholesterol by cholesterol oxidase. A smartphone-assisted visual sensing system is then constructed based on the color recognition software, and rapid on-site detection of cholesterol is achieved by reading the RGB values. Meanwhile, the generated DAP shows an apparent fluorescence signal and can realize highly sensitive detection of cholesterol by the change of the fluorescence signal intensity. Such a cholesterol sensor exhibits a wide linear detection range of 0.5-600 μg mL-1 and a low detection limit of 59 ng mL-1. The practicality of the sensor is successfully demonstrated in the rapid detection of cholesterol in serum and food.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab plus nab-paclitaxel and platinum as first-line treatment in patients with recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous-cell carcinoma (R/M HNSCC). Methods: This was a prospective, single-arm, open label, phase 2 clinical study enrolling patients at the Cancer Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences with R/M HNSCC treated with pembrolizumab plus nab-paclitaxel and cisplatin or carboplatin. After six cycles of treatment, patients received pembrolizumab as maintenance therapy until disease progression or intolerable toxicity or completion of 35 cycles of treatment. The primary endpoint was objective response rate, and secondary endpoints included overall survival, progression-free survival, and safety profile. Efficacy was evaluated according to the response evaluation criteria in solid tumors 1.1, survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method, and adverse events were assessed using the America National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events 5.0. Results: A total of 30 patients with R/M HNSCC were enrolled from 23 April 2021 to 22 March 2023, including 28 males and 2 females, with a median age of 67 years. The median follow-up time was 14.5 months, the objective response rate was 70.0%, the disease control rate was 96.7%, and the median progression-free survival and overall survival of all patients were 11.6 months and 18.8 months, respectively. Median duration of response was up to 17.3 months. Grade≥3 treatment-related adverse events were leukopenia (26.7%), neutropenia (26.7%), peripheral neurotoxicity (3.3%), rash (3.3%), hyperalgesia (3.3%), and immune-related pneumonitis (3.3%). The most common immune-related adverse event was hypothyroidism (40.0%). Conclusion: Pembrolizumab combined with nab-paclitaxel and platinum shows encouraging antitumor activity accompanied with a manageable safety profile in untreated R/M HNSCC patients in China.

Abstract
The nucleophilic addition of 3-(4-cyanopyridin-2-yl)-1,1-dimethylurea (1) to cis-[Pt(CNXyl)2Cl2] (2) gave a new cyclometallated compound 3. It was characterized by NMR spectroscopy (1H, 13C, 195Pt) and high-resolution mass spectrometry, as well as crystallized to obtain two crystalline forms (3 and 3·2MeCN), whose structures were determined by X-ray diffraction. In the crystalline structure of 3, two conformers (3A and 3B) were identified, while the structure 3·2MeCN had only one conformer 3A. The conformers differed by orientation of the N,N-dimethylcarbamoyl moiety relative to the metallacycle plane. In both crystals 3 and 3·2MeCN, the molecules of the Pt(II) complex are associated into supramolecular dimers, either {3A}2 or {3B}2, via stacking interactions between the planes of two metal centers, which are additionally supported by hydrogen bonding. The theoretical consideration, utilizing a number of computational approaches, demonstrates that the C···dz2(Pt) interaction makes a significant contribution in the total stacking forces in the geometrically optimized dimer [3A]2 and reveals the dz2(Pt)→π*(PyCN) charge transfer (CT). The presence of such CT process allowed for marking the C···Pt contact as a new example of a rare studied phenomenon, namely, tetrel bonding, in which the metal site acts as a Lewis base (an acceptor of noncovalent interaction).

Abstract
Chitosan (CS)-stabilized platinum nanoparticles (CS/PtNPs) were employed to develop a novel aptamer-based dual-mode colorimetric and photothermal biosensor for selective detection of kanamycin (KAN). As a peroxidase-like catalyst, the CS/PtNPs showed outstanding catalytic activity for the oxidation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). As a stabilizing agent, CS excelled at fixing the KAN binding aptamer on the surface of the CS/PtNPs, amplifying their catalytic activity and enhancing colloidal dispersion and stability. The oxidized TMB (TMBox) functioned as a signal for the colorimetric, photothermal aptasensor because of its observable absorbance of light in the visible and near-infrared (NIR) regions. When light from a NIR laser was absorbed by the TMBox in the reaction solution, heat was generated in inverse proportion to the KAN concentration. The developed colorimetric and photothermal modes of the aptasensor showed a linear detection range of 0.1-50 and 0.5-50 μM, with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.04 and 0.41 μM, respectively. Moreover, the aptasensor successfully determined KAN concentrations in spiked milk samples, verifying the reliability and reproducibility in practical applications. The dual-mode aptasensor based on CS/PtNPs for KAN detection, utilizing both color change and heat generation signals through a single probe (TMBox), demonstrates rapid response, simplicity in operation, cost-effectiveness, and high sensitivity. In addition, unlike typical immunoassays, this aptamer-based peroxidase-like nanozyme activation and inhibition strategy required no washing process, which was very effective in terms of reducing the time required for an assay and sustaining a high sensitivity.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD), in addition to being the most common cause of dementia, is very difficult to diagnose, with the 42-amino acid form of Aβ (Aβ-42) being one of the main biomarkers used for this purpose. Despite the enormous efforts made in recent years, the technologies available to determine Aβ-42 in human samples require sophisticated instrumentation, present high complexity, are sample and time-consuming, and are costly, highlighting the urgent need not only to develop new tools to overcome these limitations but to provide an early detection and treatment window for AD, which is a top-challenge. In recent years, micromotor (MM) technology has proven to add a new dimension to clinical biosensing, enabling ultrasensitive detections in short times and microscale environments. To this end, here an electrochemical immunoassay based on polypyrrole (PPy)/nickel (Ni)/platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs) MM is proposed in a pioneering manner for the determination of Aβ-42 in left prefrontal cortex brain tissue, cerebrospinal fluid, and plasma samples from patients with AD. MM combines the high binding capacity of their immunorecognition external layer with self-propulsion through the catalytic generation of oxygen bubbles in the internal layer due to decomposition of hydrogen peroxide as fuel, allowing rapid bio-detection (15 min) of Aβ-42 with excellent selectivity and sensitivity (LOD = 0.06 ng/mL). The application of this disruptive technology to the analysis of just 25 μL of the three types of clinical samples provides values concordant with the clinical values reported, thus confirming the potential of the MM approach to assist in the reliable, simple, fast, and affordable diagnosis of AD by determining Aβ-42.

Abstract
Optically transparent neural microelectrodes have facilitated simultaneous electrophysiological recordings from the brain surface with the optical imaging and stimulation of neural activity. A remaining challenge is to scale down the electrode dimensions to the single-cell size and increase the density to record neural activity with high spatial resolution across large areas to capture nonlinear neural dynamics. Here we developed transparent graphene microelectrodes with ultrasmall openings and a large, transparent recording area without any gold extensions in the field of view with high-density microelectrode arrays up to 256 channels. We used platinum nanoparticles to overcome the quantum capacitance limit of graphene and to scale down the microelectrode diameter to 20 µm. An interlayer-doped double-layer graphene was introduced to prevent open-circuit failures. We conducted multimodal experiments, combining the recordings of cortical potentials of microelectrode arrays with two-photon calcium imaging of the mouse visual cortex. Our results revealed that visually evoked responses are spatially localized for high-frequency bands, particularly for the multiunit activity band. The multiunit activity power was found to be correlated with cellular calcium activity. Leveraging this, we employed dimensionality reduction techniques and neural networks to demonstrate that single-cell and average calcium activities can be decoded from surface potentials recorded by high-density transparent graphene arrays.

Abstract
Access to therapeutic strategies that counter cellular stress induced by reactive oxygen species (ROS) is an important, long-standing challenge. Here, the assembly of antioxidant artificial cells is based on alginate hydrogels equipped with non-native catalysts, namely platinum nanoparticles and an EUK compound. These artificial cells are able to preserve the viability and lower the intracellular ROS levels of challenged hepatic cells by removing peroxides from the extracellular environment. Conceptually, this strategy illustrates the potential use of artificial cells with a synthetic catalyst toward long-term support of hepatic cells and potentially other mammalian cells.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review aims to evaluate recent literature on occupational platinum salt exposure and allergy and asthma in the context of existing evidence. RECENT FINDINGS A major recent development is that large quantitative platinum salt exposure datasets have become available and are finding applications in epidemiological studies. These exposure data are expected to lead to higher quality epidemiological studies focusing on exposure response relations, modifiers of exposure and sensitization risk. The exposure data might also improve medical referral advice as part of medical surveillance studies and contribute to improved evidence on the effectiveness of exposure referral. SUMMARY Hopefully, the availability of exposure databases form a stimulus for more exposure response studies and risk assessments leading to science based primary prevention approaches. The availability of more detailed exposure data can guide job transfer decisions in occupational clinical practice.

Abstract
Metastatic colon cancer remains an incurable disease, and it is difficult for existing treatments to achieve the desired clinical outcome, especially for colon cancer patients who have received first-line treatment. Although immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have demonstrated durable clinical efficacy in a variety of solid tumors, their response requires an inflammatory tumor microenvironment. However, microsatellite-stable (MSS) colon cancer, which accounts for the majority of colorectal cancers, is a cold tumor that does not respond well to ICIs. Combination regimens open the door to the utility of ICIs in cold tumors. Although combination therapies have shown their advantage even for MSS colon cancer, it remains unclear whether combination therapies show their advantage in patients with pretreated metastatic colon cancer. We report a patient who has achieved complete remission and good tolerance with sintilimab plus bevacizumab and platinum-based chemotherapy after postoperative recurrence. The patient had KRAS mutation and MSS-type colon cancer, and his PD-1+CD8+ and CD3-CD19-CD14+CD16-HLA-DR were both positive. He has achieved a progression-free survival of 43 months and is still being followed up at our center. The above results suggest that this therapeutic regimen is a promising treatment modality for the management of pretreated, MSS-type and KRAS-mutated metastatic colorectal cancer although its application to the general public still needs to be validated in clinical trials.

Abstract
Cisplatin-based chemotherapy has associated clinical disadvantages, such as high toxicity and resistance. Thus, the development of new antitumor metallodrugs able to overcome different clinical barriers is a public healthcare priority. Here, we studied the mechanism of action of the isomers trans and cis-[PtI2(isopropylamine)2] (I5 and I6, respectively) against gastrointestinal cancer cells. We demonstrate that I5 and I6 modulate mitochondrial metabolism, decreasing OXPHOS activity and negatively affecting ATP-linked oxygen consumption rate. Consequently, I5 and I6 generated Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), provoking oxidative damage and eventually the induction of senescence. Thus, herein we propose a loop with three interconnected processes modulated by these iodido agents: (i) mitochondrial dysfunction and metabolic disruptions; (ii) ROS generation and oxidative damage; and (iii) cellular senescence. Functionally, I5 reduces cancer cell clonogenicity and tumor growth in a pancreatic xenograft model without systemic toxicity, highlighting a potential anticancer complex that warrants additional pre-clinical studies.

Abstract
Platinum supramolecular complexes based on photosensitizers have garnered great interest in photodynamic therapy (PDT) due to Pt (II) centers as chemotherapeutic agents to eliminate tumor cells completely, which greatly improve the antitumor efficacy of PDT. However, in comparison to precursor photosensitizer ligand, the formed platinum supramolecular complexes typically exhibit inferior outcomes in terms of reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. How to boost ROS generation in the formed platinum supramolecular complexes for enhanced PDT is an enticing yet highly challenging task. Here we report a Pt-coordination-based dimeric photosensitizer complex (Cz-BTZ-Py)2Pt(OTf)2. It is found that comparing with photosensitizer ligand Cz-BTZ-Py, the formed supramolecular complex exhibit redshifts of absorption wavelength as well as enhanced ROS generation efficiency. Moreover, type-I ROS generation (O2⋅-) is produced in the formed platinum supramolecular complexes mainly due to a reduced energy gap ΔEST resulting from exciton coupling between two photosensitizer ligands. And type-I ROS (O2⋅-) generation significantly amplifies the photodynamic therapy (PDT) outcomes. In vitro evaluation shows excellent photochemotherapy performance of (Cz-BTZ-Py)2Pt(OTf)2 nanoparticles. We anticipate this work would provide a novel approach to design type-I photosensitizers for efficient PDT.

Abstract
Most patients with advanced ovarian cancer (AOC) ultimately relapse after platinum-based chemotherapy. Combining bevacizumab, olaparib, and durvalumab likely drives synergistic activity. This open-label phase 2 study (NCT04015739) aimed to assess activity and safety of this triple combination in female patients with relapsed high-grade AOC following prior platinum-based therapy. Patients were treated with olaparib (300 mg orally, twice daily), the bevacizumab biosimilar FKB238 (15 mg/kg intravenously, once-every-3-weeks), and durvalumab (1.12 g intravenously, once-every-3-weeks) in nine French centers. The primary endpoint was the non-progression rate at 3 months for platinum-resistant relapse or 6 months for platinum-sensitive relapse per RECIST 1.1 and irRECIST. Secondary endpoints were CA-125 decline with CA-125 ELIMination rate constant K (KELIM-B) per CA-125 longitudinal kinetics over 100 days, progression free survival and overall survival, tumor response, and safety. Non-progression rates were 69.8% (90%CI 55.9%-80.0%) at 3 months for platinum-resistant relapse patients (N = 41), meeting the prespecified endpoint, and 43.8% (90%CI 29.0%-57.4%) at 6 months for platinum-sensitive relapse (N = 33), not meeting the prespecified endpoint. Median progression-free survival was 4.1 months (95%CI 3.5-5.9) and 4.9 months (95%CI 2.9-7.0) respectively. Favorable KELIM-B was associated with better survival. No toxic deaths or major safety signals were observed. Here we show that further investigation of this triple combination may be considered in AOC patients with platinum-resistant relapse.

Abstract
Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) can induce durable cancer remission. However, only a small subset of patients gains benefits. While tumor mutation burden (TMB) differentiates responders from nonresponders in some cases, it is a weak predictor in tumor types with low mutation rates. Thus, there is an unmet need to discover a new class of genetic aberrations that predict ICB responses in these tumor types. Here, we report analyses of pan-cancer whole genomes which revealed that intragenic rearrangement (IGR) burden is significantly associated with immune infiltration in breast, ovarian, esophageal, and endometrial cancers, particularly with increased M1 macrophage and CD8+ T-cell signatures. Multivariate regression against spatially counted tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes in breast, endometrial, and ovarian cancers suggested that IGR burden is a more influential covariate than other genetic aberrations in these cancers. In the MEDI4736 trial evaluating durvalumab in esophageal adenocarcinoma, IGR burden correlated with patient benefits. In the IMVigor210 trial evaluating atezolizumab in urothelial carcinoma, IGR burden increased with platinum exposure and predicted patient benefit among TMB-low, platinum-exposed tumors. Altogether, we have demonstrated that IGR burden correlates with T-cell inflammation and predicts ICB benefit in TMB-low, IGR-dominant tumors, and in platinum-exposed tumors.

Abstract
In the realm of cancer therapeutics and resistance, kinases play a crucial role, particularly in gastric cancer (GC). Our study focused on platinum-based chemotherapy resistance in GC, revealing a significant reduction in homeodomain-interacting protein kinase 3 (HIPK3) expression in platinum-resistant tumors through meticulous analysis of transcriptome datasets. In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrated that HIPK3 knockdown enhanced tumor proliferation and metastasis, while upregulation had the opposite effect. We identified the myocyte enhancer factor 2C (MEF2C) as a transcriptional regulator of HIPK3 and uncovered HIPK3's role in downregulating the morphogenesis regulator microtubule-associated protein (MAP7) through ubiquitination. Phosphoproteome profiling revealed HIPK3's inhibitory effects on mTOR and Wnt pathways crucial in cell proliferation and movement. A combined treatment strategy involving oxaliplatin, rapamycin, and IWR1-1-endo effectively overcame platinum resistance induced by reduced HIPK3 expression. Monitoring HIPK3 levels could serve as a GC malignancy and platinum resistance indicator, with our proposed treatment strategy offering novel avenues for reversing resistance in gastric cancer.

Abstract
Importance The combination of an antibody to programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) or to its ligand (PD-L1) with chemotherapy is the standard first-line treatment for metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Bevacizumab is expected to enhance the efficacy not only of chemotherapy but also of PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies through blockade of vascular endothelial growth factor-mediated immunosuppression, but further data are needed to support this. Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of bevacizumab administered with platinum combination therapy and atezolizumab in patients with advanced nonsquamous NSCLC. Design, Setting, and Participants An open-label phase 3 randomized clinical trial was conducted at 37 hospitals in Japan. Patients with advanced nonsquamous NSCLC without genetic driver alterations or those with genetic driver alterations who had received treatment with at least 1 approved tyrosine kinase inhibitor were enrolled between January 20, 2019, and August 12, 2020. Interventions Patients were randomly assigned to receive either atezolizumab plus carboplatin with pemetrexed (APP) or atezolizumab, carboplatin plus pemetrexed, and bevacizumab (APPB). After 4 cycles of induction therapy, maintenance therapy with atezolizumab plus pemetrexed or with atezolizumab, pemetrexed, and bevacizumab was administered until evidence of disease progression, development of unacceptable toxic effects, or the elapse of 2 years from the initiation of protocol treatment. Main Outcomes and Measures The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS) as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR) in the intention-to-treat (ITT) population. Results A total of 412 patients were enrolled (273 men [66%]; median age, 67.0 [range, 24-89] years) and randomly assigned, with 205 in the APPB group and 206 in the APP group of the ITT population after exclusion of 1 patient for good clinical practice violation. The median BICR-assessed PFS was 9.6 months with APPB vs 7.7 months with APP (stratified hazard ratio [HR], 0.86; 95% CI, 0.70-1.07; 1-sided stratified log-rank test; P = .92). According to prespecified subgroup analysis of BICR-assessed PFS, an improved PFS with APPB vs APP was apparent specifically in driver oncogene-positive patients (median, 9.7 vs 5.8 months; stratified HR, 0.67; 95% CI, 0.46-0.98). Toxic effects related to bevacizumab were increased in the APPB group. Conclusions and Relevance The findings of this trial did not show superiority of APPB over APP for patients with nonsquamous NSCLC; however, this regimen showed a similar tolerability and improved survival relative to APP in patients with driver oncogenes. Trial Registration Japan Registry of Clinical Trials Identifier: jRCT2080224500.

Abstract
Aim: We assessed relative efficacy and safety of amivantamab versus mobocertinib in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer with EGFR exon 20 insertion (exon20ins) mutations who progressed on prior platinum-based chemotherapy. Materials & methods: This matching-adjusted indirect comparison used patient-level data from CHRYSALIS (NCT02609776) and aggregate data from a mobocertinib trial (NCT02716116) to match populations on all clinically relevant confounders. Results: While both agents had similar efficacy for time-to-event outcomes, objective response rate was significantly higher for amivantamab. 15 of 23 any-grade treatment-related adverse events reported for mobocertinib were significantly less common for amivantamab versus only two for mobocertinib. Conclusion: Results suggest that amivantamab has an improved response rate with similar survival and a more favorable safety profile versus mobocertinib in EGFR exon20ins non-small-cell lung cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study explored promising prognostic and immune therapeutic candidate biomarkers for OC and determined the expression, prognostic value, and immune effects of UCHL3. METHODS UCHL3 expression and clinical data were investigated using bioinformatic analysis. CCK8 and transwell assays were conducted to evaluate the impact of UCHL3 on proliferation and migration, and the effects of UCHL3 were further validated in a mouse model. Univariate and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression analyses were performed to construct a novel UCHL3-related prognostic risk model. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) and immune analysis were performed to identify the significantly involved functions of UCHL3. Finally, bioinformatic analysis and immunohistochemistry were performed to explore the effect of UCHL3 on chemotherapy. RESULTS UCHL3 expression was upregulated and associated with worse overall survival (OS) in OC. UCHL3 depletion repressed cell proliferation and migration both in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, 237 genes were differentially expressed between the high and low UCHL3 expression groups. Subsequently, a UCHL3-related prognostic signature was built based on six prognostic genes (PI3, TFAP2B, MUC7, PSMA2, PIK3C2G, and NME1). Independent prognostic analysis suggested that age, tumor mutational burden, and RiskScore can be used as independent prognostic factors. The immune infiltration analysis and GSEA suggested that UCHL3 expression was related to the immune response. In addition, UCHL3 expression was higher in platinum-resistant OC patients than in platinum-sensitive patients. UCHL3 overexpression was associated with poorer OS. CONCLUSION UCHL3 overexpression contributes to aggressive progression, poor survival, and chemoresistance in OC. Therefore, UCHL3 may be a candidate prognostic biomarker and potential target for controlling progression and platinum resistance in OC.

Abstract
Recent advancements in treating extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) have been significantly marked by incorporating immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) into platinum-based chemotherapy, leading to modest yet notable improvements in patient outcomes, which become more evident with longer follow-up. However, critical challenges persist, such as identifying effective biomarkers for accurate patient selection or finding more effective drugs. This review delves into the current and evolving treatment landscape for ES-SCLC, focusing on the most promising therapeutic strategies under investigation. We discuss the latest developments in the use of newer ICIs, antiangiogenic agents, PARP inhibitors (PARPi), lurbinectedin, and anti-DLL3 agents, offering insights into potential future directions in the management of this aggressive cancer.

Abstract
Pyroptosis, an emerging mechanism of programmed cell death, holds great potential to trigger a robust antitumor immune response. Platinum-based chemotherapeutic agents can induce pyroptosis via caspase-3 activation. However, these agents also enhance cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression in tumor tissues, leading to drug resistance and immune evasion in pancreatic cancer and significantly limiting the effectiveness of chemotherapy-induced pyroptosis. Here, an amphiphilic polymer (denoted as PHDT-Pt-In) containing both indomethacin (In, a COX-2 inhibitor) and platinum(IV) prodrug (Pt(IV)) is developed, which is responsive to glutathione (GSH). This polymer self-assemble into nanoparticles (denoted as Pt-In NP) that can disintegrate in cancer cells due to the GSH responsiveness, releasing In to inhibit the COX-2 expression, hence overcoming the chemoresistance and amplifying cisplatin-induced pyroptosis. In a pancreatic cancer mouse model, Pt-In NP significantly inhibit tumor growth and elicit both innate and adaptive immune responses. Moreover, when combined with anti-programmed death ligand (α-PD-L1) treatment, Pt-In NP demonstrate the ability to completely suppress metastatic tumors, transforming "cold tumors" into "hot tumors". Overall, the sustained release of Pt(IV) and In from Pt-In NP amplifies platinum-drug-induced pyroptosis to elicit long-term immune responses, hence presenting a generalizable strategy for pancreatic cancer.

Abstract
Sacituzumab govitecan (SG) is an antibody-drug conjugate composed of an anti-Trop-2-directed antibody conjugated with the topoisomerase I inhibitory drug, SN-38, via a proprietary hydrolysable linker. SG has received United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval to treat metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), unresectable locally advanced or metastatic hormone receptor (HR)-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer, and accelerated approval for metastatic urothelial cancer. We investigated the utility of combining SG with platinum-based chemotherapeutics in TNBC, urinary bladder carcinoma (UBC), and small-cell lung carcinoma (SCLC). SG plus carboplatin or cisplatin produced additive growth-inhibitory effects in vitro that trended towards synergy. Immunoblot analysis of cell lysates suggests perturbation of the cell-cycle and a shift towards pro-apoptotic signaling evidenced by an increased Bax to Bcl-2 ratio and down-regulation of two anti-apoptotic proteins, Mcl-1 and survivin. Significant antitumor effects were observed with SG plus carboplatin in mice bearing TNBC or SCLC tumors compared to all controls (P < 0.0062 and P < 0.0017, respectively) and with SG plus cisplatin in UBC and SCLC tumor-bearing animals (P < 0.0362 and P < 0.0001, respectively). These combinations were well tolerated by the animals. Combining SG with platinum-based chemotherapeutics demonstrates the benefit in these indications and warrants further clinical investigation.

Abstract
PURPOSE In the CASPIAN trial, first-line durvalumab plus platinum-etoposide (EP) significantly improved overall survival (OS) versus EP alone in extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). We report exploratory analyses of CASPIAN outcomes by programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1) expression and tissue tumor mutational burden (tTMB). EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Patients were randomized (1:1:1) to durvalumab (1,500 mg) plus EP, durvalumab plus tremelimumab (75 mg) plus EP, or EP alone. Treatment effects in PD-L1 and tTMB subgroups were estimated using an unstratified Cox proportional hazards model. RESULTS The PD-L1 and tTMB biomarker-evaluable populations (BEP) comprised 54.4% (438/805) and 35.2% (283/805) of the intention-to-treat population, respectively. PD-L1 prevalence was low: 5.7%, 25.8%, and 28.3% had PD-L1 expression on ≥1% tumor cells (TC), ≥1% immune cells (IC), and ≥1% TCs or ICs, respectively. OS benefit with durvalumab plus EP versus EP was similar across PD-L1 subgroups, with HRs all falling within the 95% confidence interval (CI) for the PD-L1 BEP (0.47‒0.79). OS benefit with durvalumab plus tremelimumab plus EP versus EP was greater in PD-L1 ≥1% versus <1% subgroups, although CIs overlapped. There was no evidence of an interaction between tTMB and treatment effect on OS (durvalumab plus EP vs. EP, P = 0.916; durvalumab plus tremelimumab plus EP vs. EP, P = 0.672). CONCLUSIONS OS benefit with first-line durvalumab plus EP in patients with ES-SCLC was observed regardless of PD-L1 or tTMB status. PD-L1 expression may prove to be a useful biomarker for combined treatment with PD-(L)1 and CTLA-4 inhibition, although this requires confirmation with an independent dataset.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Platinum-based chemotherapy is the backbone of standard-of-care treatment for patients with advanced-stage, high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC), the most common form of ovarian cancer; however, one-third of patients have or acquire chemoresistance toward platinum-based therapies. OBJECTIVE To demonstrate the utility of tumor-stroma proportion (TSP) as a predictive biomarker of chemoresistance of HGSC, progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This prognostic study leveraged tumors from patients with HGSC in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) cohort (1993-2013) and an independent cohort of resected clinical specimens from patients with HGSC (2004-2014) available in diagnostic and tissue microarray formats from the University of Tübingen in Germany. Data analysis was conducted from January 2021 to January 2024. EXPOSURE Diagnosis of HGSC. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Principal outcome measures were the ability of TSP to predict platinum chemoresistance, PFS, and OS. Using hematoxylin and eosin-stained slides from the Tübingen cohort (used for routine diagnostic assessment from surgical specimens) as well as tissue microarrays, representative sections of tumors for scoring of TSP were identified using previously evaluated cutoffs of 50% stroma or greater (high TSP) and less than 50% stroma (low TSP). Digitized slides from the TCGA Cohort were analyzed and scored in a similar fashion. Kaplan-Meier time-to-event functions were fit to estimate PFS and OS. RESULTS The study included 103 patients (mean [SD] age, 61.6 [11.1] years) from the TCGA cohort and 192 patients (mean [SD] age at diagnosis, 63.7 [11.1] years) from the Tübingen cohort. In the TCGA cohort, there was no significant association of TSP levels with chemoresistance, PFS, or OS. However, in the Tübingen cohort, high TSP was associated with significantly shorter PFS (HR, 1.586; 95% CI, 1.093-2.302; P = .02) and OS (hazard ratio [HR], 1.867; 1.249-2.789; P = .002). Patients with chemoresistant tumors were twice as likely to have high TSP as compared to patients with chemosensitive tumors (HR, 2.861; 95% CI, 1.256-6.515; P = .01). In tissue microarrays from 185 patients from the Tübingen cohort, high TSP was again associated with significantly shorter PFS (HR, 1.675; 95% CI, 1.012-2.772 P = .04) and OS (HR, 2.491; 95% CI, 1.585-3.912; P < .001). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE In this prognostic study, TSP was a consistent and reproducible marker of clinical outcome measures of HGSC, including PFS, OS, and platinum chemoresistance. Accurate and cost-effective predictive biomarkers of platinum chemotherapy resistance are needed to identify patients most likely to benefit from standard treatments, and TSP can easily be implemented and integrated into prospective clinical trial design and adapted to identify patients who are least likely to benefit long-term from conventional platinum-based cytotoxic chemotherapy treatment at the time of initial diagnosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The results of the preclinical study of a novel polymer coil in treatment of elastase induced aneurysms will be presented in this paper. MATERIAL AND METHODS We induced 16 aneurysms in 16 New Zealand white rabbits at the origin of the right common carotid artery at the brachiocephalic trunk. Newly developed polymer coils in both groups for six aneurysms each and platinum coils for two aneurysms each were used. Control angiographies followed in both groups immediately after coiling as well as in the first eight animals 30 days after intervention (30 days group) and in the other eight animals 90 days after (90 days group). An explanation and histological evaluation of the treated aneurysms followed. RESULTS The 12 animals in which the aneurysms were treated with polymer coils showed a complete occlusion (grade IV) in only 6 out of 12 aneurysms (50%), an almost complete occlusion (grade III) in 5 out of 12 (42%) and an incomplete occlusion in the treatment of one aneurysm (8%). Histologically, we observed a significantly more pronounced inflammatory response and neoangiogenesis in aneurysms treated with polymer coils only in the 30 days group. CONCLUSION Most difficulties and concerns with the polymer coils were related to the flexibility and detachment behaviour. Therefore, and due to the technical challenges of delivery, the novel polymer coil cannot be considered an alternative to the current platinum coils.

Abstract
In bladder urothelial carcinoma, ERBB2 mutations have been associated with favorable response to platinum-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy. However, this association has not been reported in upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC). We describe an excellent response to cisplatin-based chemotherapy in metastatic UTUC with an ERBB2 mutation. Our patient is a 54-year-old female with metastatic UTUC who received systemic cisplatin and gemcitabine. Postchemotherapy imaging demonstrated decreased size of pyelocaliceal mass and decreased retroperitoneal adenopathy compared to initial imaging. Surgical pathology from consolidative resection showed 3 mm residual renal tumor and no viable lymph node disease. Genomic testing demonstrated an ERBB2 gain of function mutation.

Abstract
Metal complexes represented by platinum complexes play a very important role in cancer treatment due to their diverse chemical structures and anti-tumor activities. Recently, ferroptosis has emerged as a newly occurring cell death form in the anti-tumor process. It has been reported that metal complexes could inhibit the proliferation and metastasis of tumors and combat chemotherapy resistance by targeting ferroptosis. In this review, we briefly describe ferroptosis as a fundamental process for tumor suppression and triggering anti-tumor immune responses. We summarize recent developments on metal complexes that induce ferroptosis. Finally, we outline the prospects for the application of metal complexes to the treatment of tumors based on ferroptosis and the associated problems that need to be solved, and discussed other potential research directions of metal complexes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are a revolutionary paradigm in the treatment of thoracic malignancies and chemoimmunotherapy is a current standard care in this field. Chemotherapeutic agents are known to induce not only direct cytotoxic effects on tumor cells but also immune modulating effects, such as stimulating immunogenic cell death (ICD). Currently, either pemetrexed (PEM) or taxane plus platinum are combined with ICIs for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC); however, it is still unknown whether these agents are immunologically optimal partners for ICIs. METHODS To determine the immunologically optimal chemotherapeutic agent, we first evaluated the ability of several chemotherapeutic agents, including platinum, PEM, taxane, and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) to induce ICD using several thoracic tumor cell lines in vitro. ICD was evaluated by the cell surface expression of calreticulin (CRT) and adenosine-triphosphate (ATP) secretion. We further performed an antitumor vaccination assay in vivo. RESULTS 5-FU induced cell surface expression of CRT and ATP secretion most efficiently among the several chemotherapeutic agents. This effect was enhanced when it was combined with platinum. In the antitumor vaccination assay in vivo, we found that vaccination with dying-AB1-HA (a murine malignant mesothelioma cell line) cells treated with 5-FU, but neither PEM nor PTX, reduced the tumor growth of living-AB1-HA cells inoculated 1 week after vaccination by recruiting CD3+ CD8+ T cells into the tumor microenvironment. CONCLUSION Our findings indicate that fluoropyrimidine can be an immunologically optimal partner of ICIs through the induction of ICD for thoracic malignancies.

Abstract
Research into cancer therapeutics has uncovered various potential medications based on metal-containing scaffolds after the discovery and clinical applications of cisplatin as an anti-cancer agent. This has resulted in many metallodrugs that can be put into medical applications. These metallodrugs have a wider variety of functions and mechanisms of action than pure organic molecules. Although platinum-based medicines are very efficient anti-cancer agents, they are often accompanied by significant side effects and toxicity and are limited by resistance. Some of the most studied and developed alternatives to platinum-based anti-cancer medications include metallodrugs based on ruthenium, gold, copper, iridium, and osmium, which showed effectiveness against many cancer cell lines. These metal-based medicines represent an exciting new category of potential cancer treatments and sparked a renewed interest in the search for effective anti-cancer therapies. Despite the widespread development of metal complexes touted as powerful and promising in vitro anti-cancer therapeutics, only a small percentage of these compounds have shown their worth in vivo models. Metallodrugs, which are more effective and less toxic than platinum-based drugs and can treat drug-resistant cancer cells, are the focus of this review. Here, we highlighted some of the most recently developed Pt, Ru, Au, Cu, Ir, and Os complexes that have shown significant in vivo antitumor properties between 2017 and 2023.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Immune checkpoint inhibitors have been approved and currently used in the clinical management of recurrent and metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (R/M HNSCC) patients. The reported benefit in clinical trials is variable and heterogeneous. Our study aims at exploring and comparing the predictive role of gene-expression signatures with classical biomarkers for immunotherapy-treated R/M HNSCC patients in a multicentric phase IIIb trial. METHODS Clinical data were prospectively collected in Nivactor tiral (single-arm, open-label, multicenter, phase IIIb clinical trial in platinum-refractory HNSCC treated with nivolumab). Findings were validated in an external independent cohort of immune-treated HNSCC patients, divided in long-term and short-term survivors (overall survival >18 and <6 months since the start of immunotherapy, respectively). Pretreatment tumor tissue specimen from immunotherapy-treated R/M HNSCC patients was used for PD-L1 (Tumor Proportion Score; Combined Positive Score (CPS)) and Tumor Mutational Burden (Oncopanel TSO500) evaluation and gene expression profiling; classical biomarkers and immune signatures (retrieved from literature) were challenged in the NIVACTOR dataset. RESULTS Cluster-6 (Cl6) stratification of NIVACTOR cases in high score (n=16, 20%) and low score (n=64, 80%) demonstrated a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in overall survival in the high-score cases (p=0.00028; HR=4.34, 95% CI 1.84 to 10.22) and discriminative ability reached area under the curve (AUC)=0.785 (95% CI 0.603 to 0.967). The association of high-score Cl6 with better outcome was also confirmed in: (1) NIVACTOR progression-free survival (p=4.93E-05; HR=3.71, 95% CI 1.92 to 7.18) and objective-response-rate (AUC=0.785; 95% CI 0.603 to 0.967); (2) long survivors versus short survivors (p=0.00544). In multivariate Cox regression analysis, Cl6 was independent from Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status, PDL1-CPS, and primary tumor site. CONCLUSIONS These data highlight the presence of underlying biological differences able to predict survival and response following treatment with immunotherapy in platinum-refractory R/M HNSCC that could have translational implications improving treatment selection.

Abstract
Objectives: To explore the antitumor effects of redox-responsive nanoparticles containing platinum(Ⅳ)-NP@Pt(Ⅳ) in ovarian cancer. Methods: Redox-responsive polymer carriers were synthesized. Polymer carriers and platinum(Ⅳ)-Pt(Ⅳ) can self-assemble into NP@Pt(Ⅳ). Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry was performed to detect the platinum release from NP@Pt(Ⅳ) in reducing environment and the platinum content in ovarian cancer cells ES2 treated with cisplatin, Pt(Ⅳ) and NP@Pt(Ⅳ). The proliferation ability of the ovarian cancer cells were detected by 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Cellular apoptosis was assessed by flow cytometry. Collection of primary ovarian cancer tissues from patients with primary high-grade serous ovarian cancer who were surgically treated at the Cancer Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from October to December 2022. The high-grade serous ovarian cancer patient-derived xenograft (PDX) mice were intravenously injected with Cy7.5 labeled NP@Pt(Ⅳ) followed by in vivo imaging system. Mice were treated with PBS, cisplatin and NP@Pt(Ⅳ). Tumor volume and weight were measured in each group. Necrosis, apoptosis and cell proliferation of tumor tissues were detected by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining, TUNEL fluorescence staining and Ki-67 immunohistochemistry staining. Body weight and HE staining of heart, liver, spleen, lung and kidney of mice in each group were measured. Results: The platinum release of NP@Pt(Ⅳ) after 48 hours in reducing environment was 76.29%, which was significantly higher than that of 26.82% in non-reducing environment (P<0.001). The platinum content in ES2 cells after 4 hours and 7 hours of treatment with NP@Pt(Ⅳ) (308.59, 553.15 ng/million cells) were significantly higher than those of Pt(Ⅳ) (100.21, 180.31 ng/million cells) and cisplatin (43.36, 50.36 ng/million cells, P<0.05). The half inhibitory concentrations of NP@Pt(Ⅳ) in ovarian cancer cells ES2, A2780, A2780DDP were 1.39, 1.42 and 4.62 μmol/L, respectively, which were lower than those of Pt(IV) (2.89, 7.27, and 16.74 μmol/L) and cisplatin (5.21, 11.85, and 71.98 μmol/L). The apoptosis rate of ES2 cells treated with NP@Pt(Ⅳ) was (33.91±3.80)%, which was significantly higher than that of Pt(Ⅳ) [(16.28±2.41)%] and cisplatin [(15.01±1.17)%, P<0.05]. In high-grade serous ovarian cancer PDX model, targeted accumulation of Cy7.5 labeled NP@Pt(Ⅳ) at tumor tissue could be observed. After the treatment, the tumor volume of mice in NP@Pt(IV) group was (130±98) mm3, which was significantly lower than those in control group [(1 349±161) mm3, P<0.001] and cisplatin group [(715±293) mm3, P=0.026]. The tumor weight of mice in NP@Pt(IV) group was (0.17±0.09)g, which was significantly lower than those in control group [(1.55±0.11)g, P<0.001] and cisplatin group [(0.82±0.38)g, P=0.029]. The areas of tumor necrosis and apoptosis in mice treated with NP@Pt(Ⅳ) were higher than those in mice treated with cisplatin. Immunohistochemical staining revealed that there were low expressions of Ki-67 at tumor tissues of mice treated with NP@Pt(Ⅳ) compared with cisplatin. The change in body weight of mice in NP@Pt(Ⅳ) group was not significantly different from that of the control group [(18.56±2.04)g vs.(20.87±0.79)g, P=0.063]. Moreover, the major organs of the heart, liver, spleen, lung, and kidney were also normal by HE staining. Conclusion: Redox-responsive NP@Pt(Ⅳ), produced in this study can enhance the accumulation of cisplatin in ovarian cancer cells and improve the efficacy of ovarian cancer chemotherapy.

Abstract
Photometric, fluorometric and liquid chromatographic methods were proposed to analyze Pt(II) from cis-platin and carbo-platin injections after derivatization with reagent 2-oxo-propanoic acid N-phenylhydrazonecarbothioamide. The reagent reacted with metals Au(III), Ag(I), Mn(II), Pt(II), Mo(VI), V(V/IV) to develop their characteristic colors in the pH range 3-12 and were extracted in organic solvent trichloromethane. The photoluminescent behavior of ligand and its metal complexes was investigated to correlate the emission pattern. Liquid chromatographic method was also proposed to analyze cis-platin and carbo-platin anti-cancer drugs based on the pre-column derivatizing platinum(II) with ligand. The complex of platinum was separated and eluted from HPLC column Microsorb C-18, (150 cm x 4.6 mm i.d, 5 µm) comprising eluents - tetrabutyl ammonium bromide (1 mM)-sodium acetate (1 mM)-acetonitrile-water-methanol (02:02:06:22:68 v/v/v/v/v). Metals Au(III), Ag(I), Mn(II), V(IV/V), Mo(VI) were also separated completely. The linear calibration range 0.5-2.5 µg/mL was observed following Beer's law with detection limit of 150.00 ng/mL Pt(II). The determination of cis-platin and carbo-platin injections by photometric, fluorometric and chromatographic methods showed RSD (n = 3) 1.14-3.12, 0.98-2.84, 0.92-2.72% respectively. The developed methods were employed to analyze cis-platin in samples of serum and urine of cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy and platinum amounts were observed within 45.0-86.0, 49.0-91.0, 42.0-84.0 ng/mL and 82.0-398, 81.0-389, 74.0-391 ng/mL with relative standard deviation (RSD) (n = 4) of 2.28-3.88, 2.40-3.82, 2.52-3.82% and 2.52-3.91, 2.44-3.94, 1.98-3.24% by liquid chromatographic, fluorometric and photometric techniques respectively.

Abstract
The cationic platinum(II) organometallic complex [Pt(terpy)Me]+ (terpy = 2,2':6',2″-terpyridine) at mild acidic pH interacts with poly(L-glutamic acid) (L-PGA) in its α-helix conformation, affording chiral supramolecular adducts. Their kinetics of formation have been investigated in detail as a function of the concentrations of both reagents and changing pH, ionic strength, the length of the polymeric scaffold and temperature. After a very fast early stage, the kinetic traces have been analyzed as three consecutive steps, suggesting a mechanism based on the electrostatic fast formation of a not-organized aggregate that subsequently evolves through different rearrangements to form the eventual supramolecular adduct. A model for this species has been proposed based on (i) the attractive electrostatic interaction of the cationic platinum(II) complexes and the polyelectrolyte and (ii) the π-stacking interactions acting among the [Pt(terpy)Me]+ units.

Abstract
The clinical utility of the chemotherapeutic agent cisplatin is restricted by cancer drug resistance, which is either intrinsic to the tumor or acquired during therapy. Epigenetics is increasingly recognized as a factor contributing to cisplatin resistance and hence influences drug efficacy and clinical outcomes. In particular, epigenetics regulates gene expression without changing the DNA sequence. Common types of epigenetic modifications linked to chemoresistance are DNA methylation, histone modification, and non-coding RNAs. This review provides an overview of the current findings of various epigenetic modifications related to cisplatin efficacy in cell lines in vitro and in clinical tumor samples. Furthermore, it discusses whether epigenetic alterations might be used as predictors of the platinum agent response in order to prevent avoidable side effects in patients with resistant malignancies. In addition, epigenetic targeting therapies are described as a possible strategy to render cancer cells more susceptible to platinum drugs.

Abstract
Hyaluronidase (HAase) is an important endoglycosidase involved in numerous physiological and pathological processes, such as apoptosis, senescence, and cancer progression. Simple, convenient, and sensitive detection of HAase is important for clinical diagnosis. Herein, an easy-to-operate multicolor visual sensing strategy was developed for HAase determination. The proposed sensor was composed of an enzyme-responsive hydrogel and a nanochromogenic system (gold nanobipyramids (AuNBPs)). The enzyme-responsive hydrogel, formed by polyethyleneimine-hyaluronic acid (PEI-HA), was specifically hydrolyzed with HAase, leading to the release of platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs). Subsequently, PtNPs catalyzed the mixed system of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) and H2O2 to produce TMB2+ under acidic conditions. Then, TMB2+ effectively etched the AuNBPs and resulted in morphological changes in the AuNBPs, accompanied by a blueshift in the localized surface plasmon resonance peak and vibrant colors. Therefore, HAase can be semiquantitatively determined by directly observing the color change of AuNBPs with the naked eye. On the basis of this, the method has a linear detection range of HAase concentrations between 0.6 and 40 U/mL, with a detection limit of 0.3 U/mL. In addition, our designed multicolor biosensor successfully detected the concentration of HAase in human serum samples. The results showed no obvious difference between this method and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, indicating the good accuracy and usability of the suggested method.

Abstract
The impact of kinetic lability or reactivity on in vitro cytotoxicity, stability in plasma, in vivo tumor and tissue accumulation, and antitumor efficacy of functional platinum(II) (Pt) anticancer agents containing a O˄O β-diketonate leaving ligand remain largely unexplored. To investigate this, we synthesized Pt complexes [(NH3 )2 Pt(L1-H)]NO3 and [(DACH)Pt(L1-H)]NO3 (L1=4,4,4-trifluoro-1-ferrocenylbutane-1,3-dione, DACH=1R,2R-cyclohexane-1,2-diamine) containing an electron deficient [L1-H]- O˄O leaving ligand and [(NH3 )2 Pt(L2-H)]NO3 and [(DACH)Pt(L2-H)]NO3 (L2=1-ferrocenylbutane-1,3-dione) containing an electron-rich [L2-H]- O˄O leaving ligand. While all four complexes have comparable lipophilicity, the presence of the electron-withdrawing CF3 group was found to dramatically enhance the reactivity of these complexes toward nucleophilic biomolecules. In vitro cellular assays revealed that the more reactive complexes have higher cellular uptake and higher anticancer potency as compared to their less reactive analogs. But the scenario is opposite in vivo, where the less reactive complex showed improved tissue and tumor accumulation and better anticancer efficacy in mice bearing ovarian xenograft when compared to its more reactive analog. Finally, in addition to demonstrating the profound but contrasting impact of kinetic lability on in vitro and in vivo antitumor potencies, we also described the impact of kinetic lability on the mechanism of action of this class of promising antitumor agents.

Abstract
The platinum(IV) prodrug strategy is attractive for the synergistic antitumor effect. High levels (>400 nM) of nitric oxide (NO) exert promising cancer inhibition effects via multiple mechanisms. Herein, we designed and synthesized a new group of integrated bioorthogonal self-catalyzed NO donor/Pt(IV) prodrugs bearing long alkyl chains to enhance the stability in circulation, while the cytoplasmic reductants trigger cascade activation to release Pt and NO in tumor cells. Specifically, compound 10c exhibited an improved stability, favorable pharmacokinetic properties (AUC(0-t) of 2210.10 h*ng/mL), potent anti-triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) effects (71.08% tumor growth inhibition (TGI) against the MDA-MB-231 xenograft model), potent in vivo anti-TNBC lung metastasis activity, and acceptable low toxicity. Importantly, NO released from 10c leads to the S-nitrosation of metal transporters Atox1&ATP7a in TNBC cells, which increases the Pt retention and inhibits lysyl oxidase, generating synergistic tumoricidal and antimetastatic activity. These results may inspire further study on the synergistical therapy of Pt and NO for the treatment of TNBC.

Abstract
Platinum-based chemotherapy remains one of the major choices for treatment of ovarian cancer (OC). However, primary or acquired drug resistance severely impairs their efficiency, thereby causing chemotherapy failure and poor prognosis. SH3 domain containing ring finger 2 (SH3RF2) has been linked to the development of cancer. Here we find higher levels of SH3RF2 in the tumor tissues from cisplatin-resistant OC patients when compared to those from cisplatin-sensitive patients. Similarly, cisplatin-resistant OC cells also express higher levels of SH3RF2 than normal OC cells. Through in vitro and in vivo loss-of-function experiments, SH3RF2 is identified as a driver of cisplatin resistance, as evidenced by increases in cisplatin-induced cell apoptosis and DNA damage and decreases in cell proliferation induced by SH3RF2 depletion. Mechanistically, SH3RF2 can directly bind to the RNA-binding protein mRNA processing factor (RBPMS). RBPMS has been reported as an inhibitor of cisplatin resistance in OC. As a E3 ligase, SH3RF2 promotes the K48-linked ubiquitination of RBPMS to increase its proteasomal degradation and activator protein 1 (AP-1) transactivation. Impairments in RBPMS function reverse the inhibitory effect of SH3RF2 depletion on cisplatin resistance. Collectively, the SH3RF2-RBPMS-AP-1 axis is an important regulator in cisplatin resistance and inhibition of SH3RF2 may be a potential target in preventing cisplatin resistance.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Nivolumab plus ipilimumab with chemotherapy (NICT) and pembrolizumab with chemotherapy (PCT) are commonly used in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Compared with immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) monotherapy, ICI combination therapy can increase immune-related toxicity instead of prolonging survival. This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of NICT and PCT to decide on the favorable treatment. METHODS We conducted a multi-center retrospective cohort study on patients who underwent NICT or PCT between December 2018 and May 2022. Propensity score matching (PSM) was performed with the variables age, sex, smoking status, performance status, stage, histology, and programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1). The Kaplan-Meier method was used to compare survival for the matched patients. RESULTS Six hundred consecutive patients were included. After PSM, 81 and 162 patients were enrolled in the NICT and PCT groups, respectively. The baseline characteristics were well-balanced. The median progression-free survival was equivalent (11.6 vs. 7.4 months; P = 0.582); however, the median overall survival (OS) was significantly longer in the NICT group than in the PCT group (26.0 vs. 16.8 months; P = 0.005). Furthermore, OS was better in PD-L1-negative patients who underwent NICT than in those who underwent PCT (26.0 vs. 16.8 months; P = 0.045). Safety profiles did not differ significantly in terms of severe adverse event and treatment-related death rates (P = 0.560, and 0.722, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Real-world data suggests that NICT could be a favorable treatment option compared with PCT for patients with advanced NSCLC. Further follow-up is needed to determine the long-term prognostic benefit.

Abstract
PURPOSE The application of platinum-based chemotherapeutic agents is the traditional treatment paradigm for advanced and metastatic urothelial carcinoma, which has changed with the advent of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of ICI therapy versus chemotherapy in the treatment of advanced and metastatic urothelial carcinoma. METHODS A systematic literature search of Web of Science, Embase, PubMed, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials was performed by two independent investigators. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), and adverse events (AEs). RESULTS The patients treated with ICI monotherapy had no significant difference in OS than those treated with chemotherapy monotherapy (HR: 0.965, 95% CI 0.865-1.076, p = 0.518). However, the patients treated with ICI monotherapy had a higher ORR and lower incidence of high-grade (≥ grade 3) AEs than those treated with chemotherapy monotherapy (OR: 0.568, 95% CI 0.479-0.675, p < 0.001; OR: 0.614, 95% CI 0.446-0.845, p = 0.003). The patients treated with ICI in combination with chemotherapy had significantly better OS and PFS than those treated with chemotherapy alone (HR: 0.862, 95% CI 0.776-0.957, p = 0.006; HR: 0.788, 95% CI 0.707-0.879, p < 0.001). However, there was no significant difference in ORR or the incidence of grade 3 or higher AEs (OR: 0.951, 95% CI 0.582-1.554, p = 0.841; OR: 0.942, 95% CI 0.836-1.062, p = 0.328). CONCLUSION ICI monotherapy did not show statistically significant difference in OS but demonstrated higher ORR and lower incidence of high-grade (≥ grade 3) AEs. And a statistically significant OS and PFS benefit was found in patients treated with first-line ICI in combination with chemotherapy compared to chemotherapy alone.
