“…However, understanding SVV-001 and the unique tumor microenvironment, represented by upregulation of TEM8/ANTXR1, that it targets, has the potential to provide additional clues about mechanisms of resistance to immunotherapy and chemotherapy in neuroendocrine neoplasms and other cancers. TEM8/ANTXR1 upregulation has been described in a variety of solid tumors types including triple negative breast cancer (Xu et al, 2021), prostate cancer (Li et al, 2021a), gastric cancer (Li et al, 2021b;Sun et al, 2021), pancreatic cancer (Alcalá et al, 2019), angiosarcoma (Kusaba et al, 2021(Kusaba et al, ), colon cancer (Ł et al, 2021, and NSCLC (Gong et al, 2021). Lineage plasticity with a transformation from adenocarcinomas to carcinomas with neuroendocrine differentiation has been described in a variety of solid tumors, including lung and prostate primary tumors (Farrell et al, 2017;Rubin et al, 2020;Ito et al, 2021).…”
