Molecular minimal residual disease status may offer clues as to which patients with acute monocytic leukemia will benefit from certain therapies.

Patients with ER-positive, HER2-negative, ESR1-mutant advanced breast cancer experienced improvements in progression-free survival when being treated with Orserdu, study results showed.

Patients with inactive early-stage chronic lymphocytic leukemia may benefit from a wait-and-watch approach compared with immediate treatment with Imbruvica, findings from a phase 3 trial showed.

Patients with pretreated metastatic colorectal cancer had better outcomes when Avastin was added to their Lonsurf treatment in the third line setting.

The use of pyrotinib — an experimental drug — plus the chemotherapy capecitabine extended survival compared with Tykerb and capecitabine among patients with pretreated HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer.

Although use of robotic surgery for prostate cancer has surpassed open surgical procedures in number, the impact of this approach on patient quality of life has not been well-studied.

Treatment with Xtandi reduced the risk of progression by 76 percent compared with bicalutamide in men with castration-resistant prostate cancer, according to topline results from the phase 2 STRIVE study.

Two studies investigating Xtandi in men with early-stage metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) further confirmed the overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) benefit of the agent over placebo, according to two recent studies.
