| Investigators reported that chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells targeting B7-H3 exhibited antitumor activity in vitro against tumor cell lines and lung cancer organoids, and in vivo in xenotransplant models of orthotopic and metastatic NSCLC. [Nature Communications] |

|
| Researchers established a lung and macrophage co-culture system derived from human pluripotent stem cells, modeling the host-pathogen interaction in SARS-CoV-2 infection. [Nature Communications] |
|
|
|
| The authors showed that neonatal-derived pulmonary SSEA-1+ cells highly expressed lung development-associated genes and had enhanced organoid generation ability compared with the adult cells. [iScience] |
|
|
|
| Scientists suggested that circHECTD1 inhibited the apoptosis of alveolar epithelial cells through miR-320a/PIK3CA and miR-136/Sirt1 pathways in lipopolysaccharide-induced acute lung injury. [Laboratory Investigation] |
| |
|
|
| Researchers provided evidence that hiNeuroS-TRAIL cells could migrate to and suppress growth of NSCLC metastases in combination with radiation. [Stem Cell Reviews and Reports] |
|
|
|
| Investigators evaluated the therapeutic potential of the novel SHP2 degrader, SHP2-D26, either alone or in combination, against NSCLC cells. [Cancer Gene Therapy] |
|
|
|
| Survival rates were estimated by the Kaplan–Meier method with log-rank statistics. Lung cancer organoids were generated from patient-derived malignant pleural effusion to perform drug sensitivity assays. [Thoracic Cancer] |
|
|
|
| CircRNA ataxin 7 (circATXN7) accelerated the malignancy of NSCLC cells through adsorbing miR-7-5p and upregulating profilin 2. [Thoracic Cancer] |
|
|
|
| To understand the molecular mechanisms underlying SCLC metastasis, the authors generated SCLC mouse models with orthotopically transplanted genome-edited lung organoids and performed multiomics analyses. [Nature Cancer] |
|
|
|
|
| Investigators summarize the latest research on the diagnosis of early-stage NSCLC via liquid biopsy, including circulating DNA, circulating tumor cells, exosomes, and tumor-educated platelets. [Biochimica et Biophysica Acta-Reviews On Cancer] |
|
|
|
| Scientists provide an overview of sintilimab-based clinical trials on NSCLC, and support further investigation of sintilimab in future clinical trials. [Biomarker Research] |
|
|
|
| The authors systematically evaluate the diagnostic value of portable spirometers in detecting COPD. [NPJ Primary Care Respiratory Medicine] |

| Atossa Therapeutics, Inc. has completed enrolling participants in Part B of its Phase I/IIa clinical study of AT-H201 in Australia, which is being developed as an inhalation therapy for moderately to severely ill hospitalized COVID-19 patients and for “long-haul” patients.

|
| Black Diamond Therapeutics, Inc. announced the dosing of the first patient in the Phase I study evaluating BDTX-1535, a MasterKey inhibitor of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) for the treatment of both NSCLC and glioblastoma derived from Black Diamond’s MAP discovery engine.
