Abstrakt: The study by Feeney et al. provides critical insights into the prognostic implications of NOTCH pathway activation in adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC), particularly after disease recurrence. Utilizing both next-generation sequencing and immunohistochemistry, the research delineates the survival outcomes between NOTCH-activated and non-activated ACC groups, highlighting poorer outcomes in the former. The findings advocate for the targeted therapeutic approach and suggest a potential for personalized treatment strategies, emphasizing the need for further research into NOTCH pathway inhibitors and their clinical applications.
