• A New CA19-9 Cut-Off Value Identifies Lewis Antigen Status and Refines Prognostic Stratification in PDAC

  This study investigates the clinical utility of serum CA19-9 levels in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), with a focus on identifying patients with Lewis antigen–negative status due to germline FUT3 variants. Using data from multicenter prospective cohorts in Taiwan, we analyzed CA19-9 classification, FUT2/FUT3 genotypes, and clinicopathological annotations. The goal of this study is to refine prognostic stratification and reduce false-negative interpretation of CA19-9 in PDAC patients. All participants provided informed consent, and the study was approved by the relevant institutional review boards.

• Motif-directed chromatin repression by BCL11B shapes ectopic targeting and lineage commitment

  BCL11B encodes a critical T-lineage transcription factor that is implicated as both an oncogene and a tumor suppressor in acute leukemia. Despite its central role in development and malignancy, a basic understanding of the sequence determinants of BCL11B activity remains obscure. Here, we define two functionally distinct modes of BCL11B engagement with chromatin: Most detectable BCL11B binding events are determined by pre-existing patterns of chromatin accessibility and RUNX1 occupancy. In contrast, BCL11B directs chromatin closing at genomic regions enriched for DNA motifs containing the core “TGACC” sequence, which are most prevalent in non-T lineages. These BCL11B-closed target sites cannot be identified from conventional BCL11B chromatin profiling approaches yet represent the primary mechanism by which BCL11B regulates gene expression. We provide evidence that cell of origin impacts the ability of BCL11B to repress lineage-inappropriate gene programs, thereby promoting lineage skewing. Together, these findings define a motif-centered determinant of BCL11B repression and explain how BCL11B controls lineage specification.

• Monosomy 7 delineates a primitive acute myeloid leukemia with adverse prognosis and responsiveness to epigenetic therapy

  The mechanistic basis for adverse risk associated with monosomy 7 remains undetermined in AML. In contrast to del(7q), monosomy 7 conferred adverse prognosis independent of TP53 and complex karyotype. Single-cell RNA and ATAC-seq revealed an epigenetically remodeled landscape and expansion of multipotent progenitor (MPP)-like cells. Monosomy 7 derived progenitors were distinguished by reduced chromatin accessibility and expression of STK17A and NT5C3A, which conferred resistance to cytotoxic and venetoclax-based therapy. To circumvent resistance mediated by monosomy 7 and deficient TP53, histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) effectively restored apoptotic potential and augmented the activity of venetoclax. In a randomized clinical trial including older unfit patients with AML and monosomy 7, responses were observed in the majority that received low-dose cytarabine, venetoclax and the HDACi pracinostat, some with durable remissions exceeding 3 years. Longitudinal studies highlighted diminution of MPP-like cells, linking epigenetic remodeling to clinical response and therapeutic vulnerability of monosomy 7 AML.

• Hematopoietic Tet2 inactivation enhances the response to checkpoint blockade immunotherapy

  Somatic mutations inactivating TET2 are among the most common drivers of clonal hematopoiesis (CH). While TET2 inactivation is associated with monocyte-derived inflammation and improved chimeric antigen-receptor-T cell function, its impact on immunotherapy response is unknown. In murine models, hematopoietic Tet2 mutation enhanced the immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) response via the combined presence of phagocytes, CD4 and CD8 T cells. This effect was lost with myeloid- or T-cell restricted Tet2 inactivation, or in mice with 20% Tet2-mutant hematopoiesis. Mechanistically, in Tet2-mutant tumor-infiltrating leukocytes (TILs), ICB preferentially restricted cell states linked to tumor progression while inducing anti-tumor states. Tet2-mutant monocytes activated costimulatory programs, while Tet2-mutant T cells showed enhanced T cell memory signatures, alongside decreased exhaustion and regulatory phenotypes. This murine data was clinically relevant, since tumors from colorectal cancer and melanoma patients with TET2 driver mutation-CH (TET2-CH) showed enhanced immune infiltration, inflammation, and T cell activation. In melanoma patients treated with ICB, TET2-CH was associated with 6-fold greater odds of clinical benefit. Collectively, we demonstrate that hematopoietic Tet2 inactivation primes leukocytes for anti-tumor states associated with immunotherapy response and provides a potential biomarker for personalized therapy.

• IMMUcan SCCHN1 cohort

  The goal of IMMUcan is to understand how the immune system interacts with tumors and how therapeutic interventions influence this interaction. This cohort includes patients with confirmed locally recurrent and/or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) who receive first-line treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) or ICI combined with chemotherapy. Comprehensive profiling data are integrated with longitudinally collected clinical information. Cellular profiling of the same tumor samples was performed using multiplex immunofluorescence imaging, imaging mass cytometry, and H&E staining.

• Molecular biomarkers in progression from refractory celiac disease to the lethal cancer variety enteropathy associated T cell lymphoma (EATL)

  Enteropathy associated T cell lymphoma (EATL) is frequently preceded by a state of refractoriness to the gluten-free diet, called “refractory celiac disease” or RCD. We aim to study which mutations and copy number aberrations are already manifest in RCD and to identify differences between RCD patients that do, and do not, develop EATL. We have applied whole exome sequencing to detect mutations and copy number aberration predictive for progression from RCD to EATL.

• Non-coding mutations drive persistence of a founder pre-leukemic clone which initiates late relapse in T-ALL

  T-ALL relapse usually occurs early but can occur much later, which has been suggested to represent a de novo leukemia. However, we conclusively demonstrate late relapse can evolve from a pre-leukemic subclone harbouring a non-coding mutation that evades initial chemotherapy.

• Broad utility of ultrasensitive analysis of ctDNA dynamics across solid tumors treated with immunotherapy

  Prior studies have suggested the biomarker potential of plasma circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in cancer patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). In order to characterize the potential role of ultrasensitive ctDNA detection in the management of these patients we have performed tumor whole-genome-informed, ultrasensitive ctDNA analysis—tracking approximately 1,800 tumor-specific mutations per patient—in a retrospective cohort (n=136) and a prospective validation cohort (n=66) across 24 cancer types treated with ICIs alone or in combination with bispecific antibodies or immune cell engagers. Analyzing 1,455 longitudinal samples, we found that ctDNA molecular response measured as early as 3 weeks after treatment initiation correlated with improved progression-free and overall survival, while ctDNA clearance at any time strongly correlated with radiological response and prolonged survival. Additionally, ctDNA dynamics distinguished true progression from pseudoprogression and predicted outcomes in patients receiving continued immunotherapy beyond initial progression. This study highlights the broader applicability of ultrasensitive ctDNA as a biomarker across cancer types and immunotherapy modalities.
