๐ YOFE LAB LAUNCHES ๐
As a #newPI at Sheba Medical Center I'm building a cutting-edge research lab, addressing a critical challenge โ how to stop #Cancer #Metastasis before it spreads.
Looking for research assistants and students to join us!

Remarkable. Grasping this complexity of metastatic dissemination takes some getting used to (brilliantly portrayed in fig 1).
Ever wonder how heterogeneity defines bladder cancer subtypes?
Ha and Hsieh Lab postdoctoral fellows @pushpa_itagi and Samantha Schuster @fredhutch did, leading to a deep study of bladder cancer clonality, evolution, and heterogeneity published @Nature

We are thrilled to share the newest publication from our lab! In this work, @RoiBalaban & @OriMoskowitz investigated the effect of #efferocytosis on #macrophage state and function in the #TME.

Which cฬถaฬถnฬถcฬถeฬถrฬถ spatial ecotype do you study?
Replying to @AaronNewmanLab
6/ These SEs are fundamental, geographically organized units of TME biology โ the parts list for the tumor microenvironment across cancer types โ each with distinct cell-state assemblies.

In patients with stage II/III HER2-positive or triple-negative breast cancer receiving neoadjuvant therapy (NAT):
ctDNA tells the real story:
* Post-NAT ctDNA+ โ HR 8.9 (recurrence risk)
* Post-op ctDNA+ โ HR 128 (!! recurrence risk)
* ctDNAโ โ 5y IDFS 94%
Not a response marker.
A recurrence biology marker.
pCR is a snapshot.
ctDNA is the future.
๐ We now need trials testing escalation strategies in ctDNA-positive patients โ
and whether converting ctDNA to negative improves outcomes.

Metastasis kills most cancer patients and grows from invisible seeds. How do these seeds escape from attack by immune cells? These seeds harness stress hormones!๐คฏ
โฆthanks to โฆ@nyscfโฉ โฆ@parkericiโฉ for their support. Today at โฆ@Natureโฉ nature.com/articles/s41586-0โฆ

Excited to present the first major work after starting our lab at Stanford and the Arc this year: CRISPR-All, a unified genetic perturbation language for programming any major type of genetic perturbation simultaneously, in any combination, at genome scale, in human cells.

๐ฉ๐ฉOur new study shows higher baseline tumour burden predicts poorer outcomes on #immunotherapy in metastatic #breastcancer.
๐ฉWhy this matters: maybe surveillance post early #TNBC is now ready for prime time- if ultrasensitive ctDNA can detect relapse months before imaging, we can treat at low volume, when ICI may work better. #ctDNA #LiquidBiopsy #BreastCancerAwareness

ctDNA analysis of SONIA published on @NatureMedicine. 34% of the patients had high ctDNA before entering the study, and derived a PFS2 benefit from an early (first line) use of CDK4/6-inhibitors. Patients with low ctDNA, instead, derived no benefit. nature.com/articles/s41591-0โฆ
"We envision a future where MRD is not only detected but also targeted in a personalized manner, with the ultimate goal of eradicating it to improve survival rates"

Thank you to @break_cancer for highlighting this important work!

New research in @CCR_AACR shows the powerful clinical utility of detecting minimal residual disease in ovarian cancer patients.
Co-first author and Gynecologic Oncology fellow at @MDAndersonNews, and co-first author on this study, @AnneKniselyMD shares her thoughts

The curves everybodyโs been waiting for.
First line T-DXd + pertuzumab significantly prolonged PFS over THP for HER2+ MBC (40.7 vs 26.9 months, HR 0.56, p<0.001), doubled the rate of complete responses (15% vs 8%) and had a positive OS trend (HR 0.84). Practice changing data.
We are excited to share our new study @Cancer_Cell identifying Zeb2 as a master genetic switch controlling the tumor-associated macrophage (TAM) program. Led by @FadiSheban, @TgSanPhan, @CuriousKX & @FlorianIngelfi1. (1/20)
