New insights into the evolutionary pattern of breast cancer
A more detailed picture of breast cancer establishment may facilitate prevention and detection in women at high risk
Making personalised precision medicine a reality for early breast cancer
Individualised assessment of initial response to therapy may pave the way for chemotherapy-sparing treatment, but it requires that multidisciplinary teams adapt their current practices
The growing role of AI in breast cancer
The rapidly increasing integration of AI into many aspects of breast cancer management calls for urgent definition of expected levels of evidence and bespoke regulatory and reimbursement processes
Extending the continuum of care for metastatic colorectal cancer
While novel agents continue to enrich the therapeutic armamentarium in this setting, patients ask for a longer survival, but also for a better quality of life
Prolonged use of adjuvant imatinib shows promise in localised GIST
A study reports a disease-free survival benefit with six years of maintenance therapy with imatinib compared to the 3-year standard of care
Fuzuloparib prolongs progression-free survival in HER2 negative metastatic breast cancer
A benefit was observed in women with germline BRCA1/2 mutations when treated with the PARP inhibitor alone or in combination with apatinib
Cancer Control Principles
How much ‘green’ is cancer research?
Clinical trials have an impact on the environment, and novel approaches may help researchers reshape their activities toward a greater sustainability
Adjuvant immunotherapy improves overall survival in renal-cell carcinoma
Updated results from the KEYNOTE-564 trial confirm the role of pembrolizumab after surgery
Adjuvant alectinib has been approved by the FDA for resected ALK-positive NSCLC
The tyrosine kinase inhibitor showed to prolong disease-free survival as compared to chemotherapy and clinically meaningful benefit with respect to CNS disease–free survival
Treating colorectal cancer in the biomarker era – what's next?
In an interview, Prof. Julien Taieb comments on the major advances from colorectal cancer research which are driving the development of molecular-based therapies
