Adding consolidative thoracic radiotherapy to atezolizumab maintenance for extensive-stage small cell lung cancer led to more severe toxic effects, mainly infections, without survival benefit compared to atezolizumab alone. ja.ma/4wjlR7I
In patients with #ProstateCancer receiving #AdaptiveTherapy, mathematical biomarkers from first-cycle prostate-specific antigen (#PSA) dynamics predicted time to progression and overall survival better than standard PSA metrics. ja.ma/4wbDsyf
Among patients with metastatic #BreastCancer, alert-based digital patient-reported outcome monitoring was associated with lower fatigue at 6 months vs usual care, with improvement exceeding the minimal clinically important difference. ja.ma/4hmHGPX

In a phase 1 trial of ultralow-dose IL-10–expressing CD19 CAR T cells for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, 92% of adults had objective responses and most toxicities were grade 1-2, supporting further evaluation of cytokine-engineered CAR T strategies. ja.ma/4fk0oGA
In metastatic breast cancer trials, progression-free survival by blinded central review and investigator assessment was similar, supporting use of either method for endpoint evaluation. ja.ma/4w2Lcn4
Among patients with advanced #BiliaryTractCancer, durvalumab plus gemcitabine and cisplatin provided sustained 4-year overall survival benefit and a comparable safety profile vs placebo plus chemotherapy ja.ma/4ygxazN
Genomic profiling of consecutive meningiomas found associations between copy number alterations, somatic variants, tumor grade, and patient characteristics, offering insights into prognosis and therapeutic vulnerability. ja.ma/3SGkCRU
Patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent #OvarianCancer and exceptional response to PARP inhibitors showed ≥78% ten-year progression-free survival, with low risk of myeloid cancers, regardless of maintenance duration. ja.ma/44AA3h3
The 9-valent #HPV vaccine was linked to reduced risk of #HPVRelatedCancers in males aged 9 to 26 years, with consistent protection in both the adolescent and young adult groups. ja.ma/4uPlDod
Pretreatment MRI findings including extraprostatic extension and seminal vesicle invasion were independently prognostic for recurrence, metastasis, and mortality after radical prostatectomy. #ProstateCancer ja.ma/4xGq5Ii
Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) was associated with higher risk of trastuzumab-related cardiotoxicity and heart failure in patients with #BreastCancer. ja.ma/446aHaZ
Among adults with lymphoma or myeloma, second primary malignant neoplasms after T-cell–engaging bispecific antibody therapy occurred in 3.5%, with most second primary malignant neoplasms being skin or hematologic cancers. ja.ma/3SlsYOG
A single-fraction 19 Gy SBRT regimen for localized #ProstateCancer achieved 92.9% 3-year biochemical relapse-free survival, with grade 2 genitourinary and gastrointestinal adverse event rates below 10% and 5%, respectively, at 3 years. ja.ma/4wjqpeX
Sequential radiotherapy and immunotherapy (#iRT) provided longer overall survival than concurrent iRT for newly diagnosed advanced non–small cell lung cancer, with additional benefit from chemotherapy. ja.ma/4eOqlwD
A 58-year-old woman with #BreastCancer with multiple prior courses of systemic treatments presented with hypotension, hypoxia, significant polyuria, and polydipsia. Mild thickening of the pituitary stalk was seen. ✍️ What is your diagnosis? ja.ma/4vAqpXs
This Special Communication provides consensus recommendations on the acquisition, interpretation, and reporting of prostate magnetic resonance imaging for cancer screening. ja.ma/4eApoJc
Avelumab combined with methotrexate resulted in >95% durable remission and preserved #fertility in low-risk gestational trophoblastic #tumors, with a manageable safety profile. ja.ma/3RRcFcp
Among patients with early age–onset #ColorectalCancer in Texas, treatment delays longer than six weeks were associated with reduced survival, and language barriers represented a major risk factor contributing to delayed initiation of definitive therapy. ja.ma/3S1igN7
A phase 3 trial shows serplulimab plus chemotherapy improved overall survival and 4-year survival rates vs chemotherapy alone in extensive-stage small cell #LungCancer, with durable benefit and manageable safety. ja.ma/4x4hcrO
Oral upadacitinib achieved rapid resolution and pruritus relief in severe immune checkpoint inhibitor–related #Dermatitis, with no serious treatment-related adverse events. ja.ma/4vAMjdf
From @jama.com: In resected non-small cell lung #cancer, adjuvant #nivolumab following standard care was not associated with improved survival or recurrence risk compared with observation, even in tumors with high PD-L1 expression. #ASCO26 @ascocancer.bsky.social ja.ma/3RypEQ2
A phase 3 trial demonstrated that fovinaciclib plus aromatase inhibitor showed significant and clinically improved progression-free survival with manageable safety in hormone receptor-positive, ERBB2-negative advanced #BreastCancer. #ASCO26 @ascocancer.bsky.social ja.ma/3QdaXRV
Among women with breast cancer gene pathogenic variants (PV), most would not have received high-risk screening based on clinical or polygenic risk, supporting the need for germline PV testing in risk-based #BreastCancer screening. #ASCO26 @ascocancer.bsky.social ja.ma/4dVLSD6
Older adults with advanced cancer mainly prioritized quality of life, but their treatment preferences were not associated with differences in survival, hospitalization, or adverse effects. ja.ma/3RwiJH5
Study of veterans with cancer identified high rates of suicidal self-directed violence, with greatest risk in younger, female, American Indian or Alaska Native, and those with central nervous system, pancreas, liver, thyroid, or head and neck cancer. ja.ma/3PAJSrL
This JAMA Oncology Review examines the clinical utility of circulating tumor DNA assays for detecting minimal residual disease in patients with early-stage breast cancer. ja.ma/4dJKUte
Local salvage therapies alone for #ProstateCancer recurrence after radiotherapy maintained >75% androgen deprivation therapy–free survival at 2 years with manageable rates of severe adverse events, supporting their use in selected patients. ja.ma/4dFl2Pk
