Unveiling the molecular and immunological drivers of antibody–drug conjugates in cancer treatment - Nature Reviews Cancer Antibody–drug conjugates are rapidly expanding both in the clinical treatment of cancer and in preclinical development. In this Review, Zippelius et al. highlight the molecular interactions and immune system effects of these sophisticated drugs that drive their efficacy and toxicity.

Inferring cancer type-specific patterns of metastatic spread using Metient - Nature Methods Metient is a statistical framework that infers patterns of metastatic spread and reconstructs cancer migration histories.

In a new paper, we introduce Metient, a new method to reconstruct the migration history of metastatic clones, and learn cancer-type specific patterns of metastatic spread, from bulk or single-cell sequencing data.

Epigenetically driven and early immune evasion in colorectal cancer evolution - Nature Genetics This study nominates immune escape as an early event in colorectal cancer and shows how this can be driven through both genetic and epigenetic changes.

New @natgenet.nature.com paper from the brilliant @eszterlakatos.bsky.social presents evidence that chromatin alterations disrupt antigen presentation & neoantigens in colorectal cancer. Also that immune escape is part of the "Big Bang", at the outset of CRC growth. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
