    Abstract The success of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapies in the treatment of hematologic malignancies has led to the investigation of their potential in the treatment of solid tumors, including ovarian cancer. While the immunosuppressive microenvironment of ovarian cancer has been a barrier in their implementation, several early phase clinical trials are currently evaluating CAR-T cell therapies targeting mesothelin, folate receptor a, HER2, MUC16, and B7H3. Ongoing challenges include cytokine-associated and "on-target, off-tumor" toxicities, while most common adverse events include cytokine release syndrome, hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis/macrophage activation-like syndrome (HLH/MAS), and neurotoxicity. In the present review, we summarize the current status of CAR-T therapy in ovarian cancer and discuss future directions.

    Abstract Approximately 10-25% of patients with locally advanced cervical cancer harbor metastases to the para-aortic lymph nodes. Staging of patients with locally advanced cervical cancer can be performed with imaging techniques, such as PET-CT; however, false negative rates can be as high as 20%, especially for patients with pelvic lymph node metastases. Surgical staging can identify patients with microscopic lymph nodes metastases and aid in accurate treatment planning with the administration of extended-field radiation therapy. Data from retrospective studies investigating the impact of para-aortic lymphadenectomy on the oncological outcomes of patients with locally advanced cervical cancer are mixed, while data from randomized controlled trials do not demonstrate a progression-free survival benefit. In the present review, we explore controversies in the staging of patients with locally advanced cervical cancer and summarize the available literature.

    Abstract Background: For patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis, extent of disease and completeness of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) are major prognostic factors for long-term survival. Assessment of these factors could be improved using imaging agents. Pegsitacianine is a pH-sensitive polymeric micelle conjugated to the fluorophore indocyanine green. The micelle disassembles in acidic microenvironments, such as tumors, resulting in localized fluorescence unmasking. We assessed the utility of pegsitacianine in detecting residual disease following CRS.
    Patients and methods: NCT04950166 was a phase II, non-randomized, open-label, multicenter US study. Patients eligible for CRS were administered an intravenous dose of pegsitacianine at 1 mg/kg 24-72 h before surgery. Following CRS, the peritoneal cavity was reexamined under near-infrared (NIR) illumination to evaluate for fluorescent tissue. Fluorescent tissue identified was excised and evaluated by histopathology. The primary outcome was the rate of clinically significant events (CSE), defined as detection of histologically confirmed residual disease excised with pegsitacianine or a revision in the assessment of completeness of CRS. Secondary outcomes included acceptable safety and pegsitacianine performance.
    Results: A total of 53 patients were screened, 50 enrolled, and 40 were evaluable for CSE across six primary tumor types. Residual disease was detected with pegsitacianine in 20 of 40 (50%) patients. Pegsitacianine showed high sensitivity and was well tolerated with no serious adverse events (SAEs). Transient treatment-related, non-anaphylactic infusion reactions occurred in 28% of patients.
    Conclusions: Pegsitacianine was well tolerated and facilitated the recognition of occult residual disease following CRS. The high rate of residual disease detected suggests that the use of pegsitacianine augmented surgeon assessment and performance during CRS.

    Abstract Bevacizumab has demonstrated significant benefit in recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube and peritoneal cancer (OC), but its optimal position within the sequence of systemic therapies remains controversial. Since rebound progression after bevacizumab has been observed in other cancers, and because bevacizumab is incorporated in several regimens used in the recurrent setting, the duration of treatment may impact survival. We sought to identify whether earlier bevacizumab exposure is associated with prolonged bevacizumab therapy and survival by conducting a multi-institution retrospective study of recurrent OC patients treated with bevacizumab from 2004-2014. Multivariate logistic regression identified factors associated with receiving more than six bevacizumab cycles. Overall survival by duration and ordinal sequence of bevacizumab therapy were evaluated using logrank testing and Cox regression. In total, 318 patients were identified. 89.1% had stage III or IV disease; 36% had primary platinum resistance; 40.5% received two or fewer prior chemotherapy regimens. Multivariate logistic regression demonstrated that primary platinum sensitivity (Odds Ratio (OR) 2.34,

    Abstract The T cell receptor fusion construct (TRuC) gavocabtagene autoleucel (gavo-cel) consists of single-domain anti-mesothelin antibody that integrates into the endogenous T cell receptor (TCR) and engages the signaling capacity of the entire TCR upon mesothelin binding. Here we describe phase 1 results from an ongoing phase1/2 trial of gavo-cel in patients with treatment-refractory mesothelin-expressing solid tumors. The primary objectives were to evaluate safety and determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D). Secondary objectives included efficacy. Thirty-two patients received gavo-cel at increasing doses either as a single agent (n = 3) or after lymphodepletion (LD, n = 29). Dose-limiting toxicities of grade 3 pneumonitis and grade 5 bronchioalveolar hemorrhage were noted. The RP2D was determined as 1 × 10

    Abstract Background: Conventional excision of female genital skin cancers has high rates of local recurrence and morbidity. Few publications describe local recurrence rates (LRRs) and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) after Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) for female genital skin cancers.
    Objective: To evaluate LRRs, PROs, and interdisciplinary care after MMS for female genital skin cancers.
    Methods: A retrospective case series was conducted of female genital skin cancers treated with MMS between 2006 and 2021 at an academic center. The primary outcome was local recurrence. Secondary outcomes were PROs and details of interdisciplinary care.
    Results: Sixty skin cancers in 57 patients were treated with MMS. Common diagnoses included squamous cell cancer (n = 26), basal cell cancer (n = 12), and extramammary Paget disease (n = 11). Three local recurrences were detected with a mean follow-up of 61.1 months (median: 48.8 months). Thirty-one patients completed the PROs survey. Most patients were satisfied with MMS (71.0%, 22/31) and reported no urinary incontinence (93.5%, 29/31). Eight patients were sexually active at follow-up and 75.0% (6/8) experienced no sexual dysfunction. Most cases involved interdisciplinary collaboration 71.7% (43/60).
    Limitations: Limitations include the retrospective single-center design, heterogeneous cohort, and lack of preoperative function data.
    Conclusions: Incorporating MMS into interdisciplinary teams may help achieve low LRRs and satisfactory function after genital skin cancer surgery.

    Abstract Epigenetic aberrations, including posttranslational modifications of core histones, are major contributors to cancer. Here, we define the status of histone H2B monoubiquitylation (H2Bub1) in clear cell ovarian carcinoma (CCOC), low-grade serous carcinoma, and endometrioid carcinomas. We report that clear cell carcinomas exhibited profound loss, with nearly all cases showing low or negative H2Bub1 expression. Moreover, we found that H2Bub1 loss occurred in endometriosis and atypical endometriosis, which are established precursors to CCOCs. To examine whether dysregulation of a specific E3 ligase contributes to the loss of H2Bub1, we explored expression of ring finger protein 40 (RNF40), ARID1A, and UBR7 in the same case cohort. Loss of RNF40 was significantly and profoundly correlated with loss of H2Bub1. Using genome-wide DNA methylation profiles of 230 patients with CCOC, we identified hypermethylation of RNF40 in CCOC as a likely mechanism underlying the loss of H2Bub1. Finally, we demonstrated that H2Bub1 depletion promoted cell proliferation and clonogenicity in an endometriosis cell line. Collectively, our results indicate that H2Bub1 plays a tumor-suppressive role in CCOCs and that its loss contributes to disease progression.

    Abstract By combining 6 druggable genome resources, we identify 6,083 genes as potential druggable genes (PDGs). We characterize their expression, recurrent genomic alterations, cancer dependencies, and therapeutic potentials by integrating genome, functionome, and druggome profiles across cancers. 81.5% of PDGs are reliably expressed in major adult cancers, 46.9% show selective expression patterns, and 39.1% exhibit at least one recurrent genomic alteration. We annotate a total of 784 PDGs as dependent genes for cancer cell growth. We further quantify 16 cancer-related features and estimate a PDG cancer drug target score (PCDT score). PDGs with higher PCDT scores are significantly enriched for genes encoding kinases and histone modification enzymes. Importantly, we find that a considerable portion of high PCDT score PDGs are understudied genes, providing unexplored opportunities for drug development in oncology. By integrating the druggable genome and the cancer genome, our study thus generates a comprehensive blueprint of potential druggable genes across cancers.
