Dr Rupert Bartsch (University of Vienna, Austria) highlighted six important studies across the breast cancer landscape presented at ASCO 2026. The studies below discuss interesting and strategic developments in genomic risk stratification in early disease, supportive care optimization, HER2-positive metastatic strategies and novel antibody–drug conjugates in triple-negative breast cancer.
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide.1Â Over the past two decades, the molecular characterization of NSCLC has transformed the therapeutic landscape by enabling the development of targeted therapies that have significantly improved outcomes ...
Small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) is a rare gastrointestinal malignancy, accounting for about 1–3% of gastrointestinal cancers.1,2 Its reported incidence has increased in recent decades, likely reflecting improved detection by balloon-assisted and capsule endoscopy and the more widespread use of cross-sectional imaging.3,4 ...
Dr Igor Gómez-Randulfe discusses new real-world evidence on second-line carboplatin plus pemetrexed after osimertinib in EGFR-mutant NSCLC. The retrospective analysis highlights modest response rates and short overall survival, reinforcing the need for more effective strategies and raising critical questions about sequencing, intensification, and resistance profiling.
Head and neck cancer (HNC), with over 946,000 new cases and 482,000 deaths in 2022, is the seventh most common cause of cancer-related deaths globally.1Â Specifically, in the USA, the number of estimated new cases in 2024 was 74,000.2Â Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (...
Human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer accounts for 15% of all breast cancers.1 This breast cancer subtype was historically associated with poor outcomes; however, the development of HER2-directed therapies has dramatically improved outcomes for patients with both ...
Cholangiocarcinomas (CCAs) are a heterogenous group of cancers arising from the biliary epithelium. While they account for around 3% of all gastrointestinal malignancies, they are the second most common primary liver cancer.1Â CCAs tend to metastasize and have early lymph node ...
The treatment of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has seen significant advances in the past decade, with the availability of multiple targeted therapy agents for oncogenic-driven non-squamous NSCLC and the advent of immunotherapy that has completely revolutionized the ...
Cholangiocarcinoma constitutes approximately 3% of all gastrointestinal malignancies, and the incidence is on the rise, especially the intrahepatic subtype. These tumors are anatomically broadly classified into intrahepatic, perihilar, and distal cholangiocarcinoma. Recent understanding of tumorigenesis pathways has shown that there exists ...
Esophageal cancer remains a devastating malignancy with an anticipated 15,850 deaths out of 17,290 new cases in the US in 2018.1 Forty percent of patients with esophageal cancer are diagnosed with metastatic disease and carry an even more dismal prognosis, with 5-year survival ...
Despite advances in multimodality treatment, the 5-year survival rate of patients with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) does not exceed 40–50% and survival rates for recurrent or metastatic disease (R/M) remain dismal.1,2 Low survival rates in ...
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), cancer-related mortalities reach 7.9 million worldwide each year.1 Among women, breast cancer is one of the most common cancers globally. Despite advances in early detection and understanding on the molecular pathogenesis of breast cancer, ...
The relapse rate among patients with early-stage non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is 40% within five years after potentially curative treatment.1 The current staging system for NSCLC is inadequate for predicting the outcome of treatment. To guide clinical decisions on the optimum ...
Head and neck cancer is the sixth most common cancer, representing about 5% of all cancers. Each year, more than half a million new cases are diagnosed worldwide.1–3 Over the past decade, the important role of different growth factors and their ...
Recent data using modern systemic chemotherapy and hormone and targeted therapy give better but still modest results.5 Once BC recurs, the goal of treatment of MBC is control of disease and palliation of symptoms for as prolonged a time as ...
Adenocarcinomas represent a heterogenous group of tumours and are known to exhibit the highest degree of morphological and clinical diversitiy, which reflects patient survival.3 This review highlights the molecular characteristics that may influence metastatic behaviour in lung adenocarcinoma. Molecular Signatures ...
The median time to diagnosis of CNS metastatic disease is two years after the initial diagnosis of breast cancer, and it is unusual for it to be the only site of metastatic disease.8,9 Systemic disease used to be the leading ...
