Gastric cancer

Epstein–Barr virus-associated gastric cancer shows a robust response to immune checkpoint inhibitors. Here the authors introduce a deep convolutional neural network and its fusion with pathologists for predicting it from histopathology.

In an interim analysis of a phase 1 trial, CAR T cells specific for Claudin18.2, a tight junction protein isoform highly expressed on gastrointestinal tract tumors, were well-tolerated and exhibited promising clinical activity in patients with gastrointestinal cancers.
