@jonchou05 delivers a tour de force presentation @AACR on resistance mechanisms to NECTIN4 therapy (enfortumab and CAR-T) in bladder cancer. @UCSFCancer
#AACR26
The takeaways:
Jonathan Chou retweeted
10/ APEX linked luminal programs to favorable outcomes and EMT signatures to poor outcomes. In enfortumab vedotin–treated bladder cancer, 58% of patients with high APEX-predicted NECTIN4 responded, compared to 0% with low NECTIN4.
Even after adjusting for tumor fraction, copy number, and clinical covariates, APEX-derived NECTIN4 remained independently associated with improved survival. Our preliminary data suggests that plasma-inferred NECTIN4 may outperform tissue NECTIN4 IHC in this task.
Thanks to @UCSFCancer for covering our study which showed that a PPARg agonist rosiglitazone (an old diabetes drug) can modulate NECTIN4 & enhance activity of a new CAR T in #bladdercancer @CChuMD @koshkin85 @DrTFriedlander @SimaPorten @UCSFUrology ucsf.edu/news/2025/09/430701…

UCSF BCAN community really showed up for our walk this year, babies and 4 legged friends alike, to support our patients with bladder CA and raising $40k for research. No one walks alone 🧡@bcan_chisolm @UCSFCancer @UCSFUrology

🔥 Hot off the press: Lixing Yang, PhD, and collaborators at @UCSF have published a ground breaking work in @NatureCancer, demonstrating how unrepaired collision of DNA replication and transcription can drive aggressive cancers. @UChicagoCCB @jonchou05

📕 New publication alert: Lixing Yang, PhD and his collaborators at @UCSF published an exciting work demonstrating new approaches to correct the errors generated by the collision of DNA replication and transcription. @jonchou05 @NatureCancer @UChicagoCCB

In prostate cancer, sensitivity to poly ADP-ribose polymerase inhibitors is dependent on the specific type and zygosity of the CDK12 mutation, reports Dr. Jonathan Chou's team at @UCSF.

We are happy to share our new study published today @JCO_ASCO (👉 ascopubs.org/doi/10.1200/JCO…) on the role of NECTIN4 amplifications to predict responses to Enfortumab Vedotin treatment in metastatic urothelial cancer.
With a huge contribution of our multinational team we uncovered the role of NECTIN4 amplifications in enhancing the efficacy of Enfortumab Vedotin (EV), a cutting-edge treatment for metastatic urothelial cancer (mUC).
With NECTIN4 amplifications positioned as a potential genomic marker to predict responses to EV in mUC patients, let's explore how these findings could translated to other cancer entities as well!
Summary 👉 in posts below!

Thanks @scserendipity1 We and others (aacrjournals.org/clincancerr…) believe yes: Membranous NECTIN4 expression is correlated to EV response. Further, app. 40% of oUC metastatic samples are lacking membranous NECTIN4 aacrjournals.org/clincancerr…

Great overview on UC pathology @Markuseckstein3 🔥 important to keep these pathways of UC carcinogenesis in mind for ADC targets as well, as NECTIN4 is overexpressed in luminal tumors as nicely demonstrated by @jonchou05 pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3410… in @CCR_AACR @urotoday @OncoAlert

Our latest paper ist out in @Histo_Journal ! We comprehensively studied the membranous protein expression of the two important #ADC targets TROP2 and NECTIN4 (surfaceome 🏄♂️). it is the first paper on protein expression in a large cohort of over 200 muscle-invasive and metastic carcinomas of the urinary bladder. 😊
