And now, onto the Top 10 Translational GU Papers of 20-23. Again, not an exhaustive list, with some our @DanaFarber @DanaFarber_GU being involved in.

Let us start! Image 1/#RCC histological subtypes display diverse epigenetic configurations. Allelic imbalances play a role in modifying TF binding sites, especially through candidate SNPs.

Potential targets for future investigations and therapeutic strategies?

It is this time of the year again: TOP 10 GU Oncology clinical papers/trials in 2023: Some negative, some positive, but we learned from all!

Feel free to add more & retweet & tag

This is not an exhaustive list!

Now that #ASCO22 abstracts are released, more insights into Top 10 #GUOnc abstracts (still many LBAs):

@DanaFarber_GU @OncoAlert @ASCO @ASCOPost

1/LBA| Chris Ryan @OHSUKnight=>The long awaited EVEREST study with adjuvant everolimus in RCC: stay tuned! 2/Interesting relationship between DepOR and clinical outcomes in CM-9ER! Greater proportions of pts receiving Nivo+Cabo had deeper responses vs SUN. This translated into better PFS/OS

1/ On the heels of @ASCO #ASCO21 plenary, we are happy to share the results of KEYNOTE-564 trial of adjuvant pembrolizumab in mRCC just published in @NEJM ! A step towards better outcomes for all our patients with kidney cancer!
nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…
@OncoAlert @tompowles1 2/ Following nephrectomy for kidney cancer, a significant percentage of patients will experience disease recurrence, most of them with distant metastases, highlighting the need for effective adjuvant therapies.

Just out @NatureMedicine: Inhibition of HIF-2 alpha in RCC with belzutfian (MK-6482) - phase 1 trial and biomarker analysis- 1st study to report on the 2nd gen. HIF-2 inhibitors in pts with metastatic ccRCC!! @OncoAlert

A THREAD!

Proud of this @NatureMedicine collaboration with #FeedmanLab on a novel method detecting early stage RCC in plasma&urine w/cell-free DNA methylomes. Work led by super stars @PierVitaleNuzzo @Jberchuck @keegankorthauer #SandorSpisak 1/ RCC kills 175,000 patients worldwide with no screening test available acsjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.33….
A screening test that detects RCC while still localized (2/3 RCCs) will possibly reduce mortality. RCC and CNS tumors do not shed much cfDNA in the blood!

doi.org/10.1038/s41591… 2/ Our study analyzes patient samples from 3 prospective clinical trials of PD-1 blockade.
The study includes 592 tumors that were profiled by WES, RNA-seq, and/or IF for CD8+ T cells on samples collected before treatment with Nivolumab (anti-PD1) or Everolimus (mTOR inhibitor)
