The 2025 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting was held in Chicago. At the meeting, researches on the treatment of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) once again took the spotlight. Combination therapy strategies have demonstrated the potential to overcome resistance to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) and prolong survival. Meanwhile, progress has also been made in individualized treatment strategies for young patients and those with fibrotic interstitial lung disease. However, the complexity of resistance mechanisms, special treatment considerations for different populations, and the impact of socioeconomic factors on treatment accessibility remain challenges in the field of EGFR-mutant NSCLC treatment. In the future, it is necessary to further explore more effective treatment regimens and expand the accessibility of precision medicine to maximize patient benefits.

The 26th World Conference on Lung Cancer (WCLC) was held in Barcelona during September 6-9, 2025. As the world's largest and most influential academic meeting in the field of lung cancer, this year's congress unveiled long-term follow-up data from several pivotal studies and significant advances in novel therapeutic strategies. In the realm of targeted therapy, a next-generation combination strategy has been established as the new standard of care for the first-line treatment of patients with advanced epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), demonstrating a significant improvement in overall survival. In immunotherapy, novel combination regimens have not only addressed the therapeutic challenge of acquired resistance to EGFR targeted therapies, but also shown clear long-term survival benefits in both the perioperative and locally advanced settings. These findings pave the way for shifting the treatment paradigm to earlier stages for patients with NSCLC. Antibody-drug conjugates have made remarkable strides in this field. They have shown outstanding efficacy in patients with specific resistance mutations and those with brain metastases, and have also demonstrated immense potential in treating patients with HER2-aberrant lung cancer and broader NSCLC populations. This offers new therapeutic options for patients with refractory lung cancer.However, significant challenges remain, including the heterogeneity of resistance mechanisms, the selection of optimal treatment regimens, and management strategies for special populations. Future research should focus on identifying novel precision biomarkers and optimizing therapeutic strategies to ultimately improve clinical outcomes for all patients with lung cancer.

Based on the high-fat diet-induced hyperlipidemia rat model, this study aimed to evaluate the lipid-lowering effect of Arisaema Cum Bile and explore its mechanisms, providing experimental evidence for its clinical application. Biochemical analysis was used to detect serum levels of alanine aminotransferase(ALT), aspartate aminotransferase(AST), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C), triglycerides(TG), and total cholesterol(TC) to assess the lipid-lowering activity of Arisaema Cum Bile. Additionally, 16S rDNA sequencing and metabolomics techniques were employed to jointly elucidate the lipid-lowering mechanisms of Arisaema Cum Bile. The experimental results showed that high-dose Arisaema Cum Bile(PBA-H) significantly reduced serum ALT, AST, LDL-C, TG, and TC levels(P<0.01), and significantly increased HDL-C levels(P<0.01). The effect was similar to that of fenofibrate, with no significant difference. Furthermore, Arisaema Cum Bile significantly alleviated hepatocyte ballooning and mitigated fatty degeneration in liver tissues. As indicated by 16S rDNA sequencing results, PBA-H significantly enhanced both alpha and beta diversity of the gut microbiota in the model rats, notably increasing the relative abundance of Akkermansia and Subdoligranulum species(P<0.01). Liver metabolomics analysis revealed that PBA-H primarily regulated pathways involved in arachidonic acid metabolism, vitamin B_6 metabolism, and steroid biosynthesis. In summary, Arisaema Cum Bile significantly improved abnormal blood lipid levels and liver pathology induced by a high-fat diet, regulated hepatic metabolic disorders, and improved the abundance and structural composition of gut microbiota, thereby exerting its lipid-lowering effect. The findings of this study provide experimental evidence for the clinical application of Arisaema Cum Bile and the treatment of hyperlipidemia.

Objective:To explore the impact of postoperative extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support on neurodevelopment of neonatal patients with complex congenital heart disease (CHD) and its early neurorehabilitation intervention effect.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed; 17 neonates who underwent complex CHD corrective surgery with ECMO support in Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Shanghai Children's Medical Center, School of Medicine, Shanghai Jiaotong University from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2021 were chosen. Neurological injury of the neonates was observed during ECMO support period. At 12 months old, the neonates underwent head MRI; and Griffiths Developmental Scale-Chinese version (GDS-C) were performed on the neonates to evaluate the neurodevelopment. A systematic neurorehabilitation intervention program was implemented for neonates with abnormal neurodevelopment as indicated by GDS-C, and GDS-C was performed again to assess the neurodevelopmental changes of the neonates at 36 months old.Results:(1) During ECMO support period, 13 neonates (76.47%) suffered from neurological damage, including 8 with simple intracranial hemorrhage, 2 with intracranial hemorrhage combined with ischemic hypoxic changes, 1 with intracranial hemorrhage combined with white matter injury, and 2 with white matter injury. (2) At 12 months old, head MRI revealed hemorrhagic foci or softening foci in 2 neonates; GDS-C indicated 12 neonates with delayed neurodevelopment, 4 with borderline status, and only 1 with normal development. (3) Among the 16 neonates with abnormal neurodevelopment who received systematic neurorehabilitation, 11 achieved normal neurodevelopment, 4 remained borderline, and 1 still had delayed development at 36 months old indicated by GDS-C. Compared with those before the neurorehabilitation intervention, the neonates after neuro-rehabilitation intervention had better neurodevelopmental rating (average ranks: 9.630 and 23.380, respectively), and significantly improved neurodevelopmental quotients in the 4 major dimensions of motor, personal-social, language, and hand-eye coordination ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Neonates accepted CHD surgery face high risks of postoperative neurological complications during ECMO support period; incidence of neurodevelopmental abnormalities is high in neonates at 12 months old; by implementing a systematic neurorehabilitation intervention, the outcomes of neonates with neurodevelopmental abnormalities can be effectively improved.
