Oligometastasis represents a transitional state between early localized disease and widespread metastasis, characterized by limited tumor burden and distinct tumor biological behavior. Due to the relatively restricted number of metastatic lesions and involved organs, aggressive systemic therapy combined with local consolidative therapy offers potential for cure. With rapid advancements in molecular targeted therapies and immunotherapy, comprehensive management of oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has gained increasing attention. This review summarizes the definition of NSCLC oligometastasis, recent therapeutic progress, and existing challenges, aiming to provide insights for clinical diagnosis and treatment strategies.

Objective:Committee of Minimally Invasive Cardiovascular Surgery(CMICS) conducts an annual summary of minimally invasive cardiovascular surgery procedures performed throughout the country, which includes a comprehensive survey of the total number of minimally invasive procedures by region and the distribution of minimally invasive procedures by hospital. Since CMICS first published the 2018-2019 China Minimally Invasive Cardiovascular Surgery Data White Paper in 2020, the report has received great attention from peers within and outside the industry. In this statistical report, CMICS will focus on publishing the data related to minimally invasive cardiovascular surgery in China from 2021 to 2023 for reference and use by industry peers.

Objective To investigate the effect and safety of Sintilimab combined with Endostar injection in the treatment of programmed cell death ligand-1(PD-L1)positive lung squamous cell carcinoma(LSCC)in elderly patients.Methods A total of 94 elderly patients with PD-L1 positive LSCC diagnosed and treated from November 2019 to November 2021 were selected as the research subjects,and they were divided into the observation group(n=47)and the control group(n=47)by random number table method.The observation group was treated with Sintilimab combined with Endostar injection,and the control group was treated with Sintilimab.Twenty-one days constituted one treatment cycle,and they were treated for 3 consecutive cycles.The clinical efficacy and improvement rate of Karnofsky performance status(KPS)score in the two groups were statistically analyzed,as well as the tumor markers[carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA),cancer antigen 125(CA125),cytokeratin 19 fragment(CYFRA21-1)],angiogenesis factors[endostatin,insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1),vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF),basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF),and platelet-derived growth factor(PDGF)],apoptosis factor[B-cell lymphoma-2 gene(Bcl-2),Bcl-2-associated X protein(Bax),Livin protein,programmed cell death 5(PDCD5)]before and after treatment.The toxic and side effects during treatment,progression-free survival(PFS)and median survival time at 2-year follow-up were compared between the two groups.Results After treatment,the objective remission rate and disease control rate of the observation group were higher than those of the control group(P<0.01);after treatment,the improvement rate of KPS score in the observation group was higher than that in the control group(P<0.01).After treatment,the levels of serum CEA,CA125,and CYFRA21-1 in both groups decreased,and which were lower in the observation group than in the control group(P<0.05,P<0.01).After treatment,the levels of endostatin increased in both groups,while IGF-1,VEGF,bFGF,and PDGF decreased;the levels of endostatin in the observation group were higher than those in the control group,while the levels of IGF-1,VEGF,bFGF,and PDGF were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05,P<0.01).After treatment,the levels of Bcl-2 and Livin decreased in both groups,while Bax and PDCD5 increased;the levels of Bcl-2 and Livin in the observation group were lower than those in the control group,while the levels of Bax and PDCD5 were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05,P<0.01).There was no significant difference in toxic and side effects between the two groups during treatment(P>0.05).The 2-year survival rate and median survival time of the observation group were higher or longer than those of the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The treatment of PD-L1 positive LSCC in elderly patients with Sintilimab combined with Endostar injection can improve the therapeutic effect and the survival status of patients,inhibit tumor angiogenesis,induce tumor apoptosis,prolong the survival time of patients,and has good safety.

Cancer cell membrane (CCM) derived nanotechnology functionalizes nanoparticles (NPs) to recognize homologous cells, exhibiting translational potential in accurate tumor therapy. However, these nanoplatforms are majorly generated from fixed cell lines and are typically evaluated in cell line-derived subcutaneous-xenografts (CDX), ignoring the tumor heterogeneity and differentiation from inter- and intra- individuals and microenvironments between heterotopic- and orthotopic-tumors, limiting the therapeutic efficiency of such nanoplatforms. Herein, various biomimetic nanoplatforms (CCM-modified gold@Carbon, i.e., Au@C-CCM) were fabricated by coating CCMs of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cell lines and patient-derived cells on the surface of Au@C NP. The generated Au@C-CCMs were evaluated on corresponding CDX, tongue orthotopic xenograft (TOX), immune-competent primary and distant tumor models, and patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models. The Au@C-CCM generates a photothermal conversion efficiency up to 44.2% for primary HNSCC therapy and induced immunotherapy to inhibit metastasis via photothermal therapy-induced immunogenic cell death. The homologous CCM endowed the nanoplatforms with optimal targeting properties for the highest therapeutic efficiency, far above those with mismatched CCMs, resulting in distinct tumor ablation and tumor growth inhibition in all four models. This work reinforces the feasibility of biomimetic NPs combining modular designed CMs and functional cores for customized treatment of HNSCC, can be further extended to other malignant tumors therapy.
