The use of artificial intelligence to detect sentinel lymph nodes in patients with breast cancer may be able to save time and reduce costs as compared with immunohistochemistry.

If metastatic breast cancer no longer responds to a given therapy, finding out what targetable mutations a patient has may guide the next steps for treatment, an expert said.

A treatment combination that includes Velcade and Rituxan helps improve responses and the safety profile in marginal zone lymphoma, according to a phase 2 trial.

Datopotamab deruxtecan elicited encouraging responses in patients with heavily pretreated non–small cell lung cancer harboring actionable genomic alterations.

The Welireg-Cabometyx treatment combination demonstrated anti-tumor activity for some patients with clear cell renal carcinoma, according to a phase 2 trial.

An expert explained the different treatment options for patients with estrogen receptor-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer that has recently been diagnosed or has recurred.

An expert explained how next-generation sequencing can help patients with metastatic breast cancer understand their disease and available treatment options.

Autoimmune diseases in patients with CLL are separate from CLL, which calls for different treatments.

A phase 2 study evaluated meaningful activity from lifileucel for patients with advanced mucosal melanoma who experienced disease progression on immune checkpoint inhibitors.

CURE® editors discuss data from the European Society of Medical Oncology Annual Congress, and how it could lead to new therapies being approved.

Jemperli plus chemotherapy demonstrated improvement in overall survival compared with Keytruda and chemotherapy in patients with treatment-naïve, nonsquamous non–small cell lung cancer.

Keytruda plus the combination of Herceptin and chemotherapy led to an improvement in progression-free survival versus placebo plus Herceptin and chemotherapy in the first-line treatment of some patients with metastatic HER2-positive gastric or gastroesophageal junction cancer.

Data presented at ESMO “provides strong evidence for an enhanced anti-cancer effect with the combination” of Pluvicto and Xtandi, according to one expert.

The addition of Keytruda to external beam radiotherapy and concurrent chemotherapy, followed by brachytherapy, resulted in statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvements in progression-free survival in patients with newly diagnosed, previously untreated, high-risk locally advanced cervical cancer.

Patients with HR-positive, HER2-negative high-risk early breast cancer tended to experience improved invasive disease and distant relapse-free survival after adding Verzenio to endocrine therapy.

Patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer with an EGFR mutation had a greater risk reduction for disease progression with frontline Rybrevant plus Leclaza compared with Tagrisso alone.

Neoadjuvant Keytruda plus chemotherapy followed by adjuvant Keytruda plus endocrine therapy generated a statistically significant increase in pathologic complete response compared to pre-surgical placebo and chemotherapy followed by adjuvant Keytruda and endocrine therapy for patients with high-risk, early-stage, estrogen receptor–positive, HER2-negative breast cancer.

Patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who were never treated with a taxane derived a progression-free survival benefit from treatment with Pluvicto.

Dato-DXd lengthened the average time it took patients with HR-positive, HER2-low or -negative metastatic breast cancer to experience disease progression, study results showed.
