Read MoreCirculating microRNAs as biomarkers for risk assessment and prognostic stratification of pleural mesothelioma
Lung Cancer 2025 December [Link] Evgeniya Sharova, Paola Del Bianco, Loredana Urso, Micol Silic-Benussi, Daniela Scattolin, Donna M D’Agostino, Giulia Pasello, Vincenzo Ciminale Abstract Introduction: Pleural mesothelioma (PM) is an aggressive neoplasm associated with asbestos exposure. Clinical management of PM poses major challenges due to the lack of reliable markers for early diagnosis and prognostic…
Read MoreComprehensive analysis reveals prognostic gene set that could impacts the response to chemotherapy and immunotherapy outcomes in malignant pleural mesothelioma
Clinical and Experimental Medicine 2025 November 18 [Link] Jun Li, Hongye He, Yutao Zhang, Muhammad Salman Azhar, Yongxiang Wang Abstract Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare but aggressive thoracic malignancy primarily linked to asbestos exposure. Despite advances in research, the prognosis of MPM remains poor, and there is a lack of efficient and precise…

Read MorePD-L1 expression as a prognostic factor for postoperative outcomes in pleural mesothelioma
Translational Lung Cancer Research 2025 September 30 [Link] Masatoshi Kanayama, Takehiko Manabe, Katsuma Yoshimatsu, Yukiko Nemoto, Hiroki Matsumiya, Masataka Mori, Masaru Takenaka, Koji Kuroda, Fumihiro Tanaka Abstract Background: Pleural mesothelioma (PM) is an uncommon malignancy with a poor prognosis, even after surgical resection. Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression is a potential prognostic biomarker in various…
Read MoreDiscovery of actionable drug targets to enhance T-cell infiltration and immune checkpoint blockade efficacy in pleural mesothelioma
Lung Cancer 2025 September 28 [Link] Jasper H L T van Genugten, Daniel Faulkner, Jens C Hahne, Charlotte Poile, Lodewyk Wessels, Dean A Fennell, Paul Baas Abstract Background: Malignant pleural mesothelioma (PM) is an aggressive cancer with limited treatment options. Although first-line nivolumab plus ipilimumab improves outcomes for some patients, a majority fail to respond.…
Read MorePleural Mesothelioma: Pathogenesis, Diagnosis, Treatment, Prognosis, and Survival
MedComm 2025 September 1 [Link] Libo Zhang, Meijuan Huang Abstract Pleural mesothelioma (PM) presents significant challenges in clinical management, with current treatment options such as chemotherapy, anti-angiogenic therapies, and immunotherapies only modestly extending progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Another relevant reason is the absence of subsequent-line therapy strategies following progression of PM after…
