Female Reproductive Cancers Linked to Reduced Survival Advantage Over Males
A population-level cohort study of 264.4 million deaths across 20 countries found that females born since the 1930s had higher cancer mortality than males between the ages of 35 and 60 years, largely due to breast and gynecologic cancers. Although females live longer than males on average, these...
Social Cue Prompts Reduce Sharing of Cancer Treatment Misinformation
Prompts on posts with social cues—such as messages indicating how many users have flagged a post—and clear platform review policies may encourage intervention and reduce sharing of cancer treatment misinformation on social media, according to Lazard et al, who reported findings from their online...

At the 2026 ASCO Genitourinary Cancers Symposium, Robert J. Motzer, MD, of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, presented results from the second interim analysis of the phase III LITESPARK-011 trial showing improved progression-free survival, higher objective response rate, and a trend toward...
Stage II Melanoma: Adjuvant Pembrolizumab and Risk of New Skin Cancers
The incidence of new primary melanoma was similar among patients with completely resected stage IIB or IIC cutaneous melanoma who did vs did not receive adjuvant pembrolizumab, while nonmelanoma skin cancers were more common with placebo, according to a secondary analysis of the multicenter phase...
Does Diabetes Increase Pancreatic Cystic Neoplasm Risk?
Longer duration of diabetes is associated with a modestly increased risk of developing pancreatic cystic neoplasms, based on the results of a Korean nationwide population-based cohort study published in JAMA Network Open. Cho et al noted that the association was more pronounced among younger...
Can a Game-Based Intervention Reduce Cardiovascular Risk in Minority Cancer Survivors?
A remotely delivered, behaviorally designed game-based intervention was found to increase physical activity and may have implications for cardiovascular health among Black and Hispanic breast and prostate cancer survivors with cardiovascular risk factors compared with attention control, according...
Cardiovascular Effects and Risk Factors Identified With BRAF and MEK Inhibition in Melanoma
In a prospective, longitudinal cohort study published in JACC: CardioOncology by Glen et al, cancer therapy–related cardiac dysfunction and hypertension were found to be common cardiovascular adverse events among patients with melanoma who received BRAF or MEK inhibitor therapy. Nearly half of...
Demographic and Clinicopathologic Factors in Colorectal Adenoma Recurrence Risk
As reported in JAMA Network Open by Awan et al, both histopathologic and demographic factors show distinct time-dependent associations with colorectal adenoma recurrence in postpolypectomy surveillance. In this retrospective cohort study, high-grade dysplasia demonstrated the strongest association...
Early Results Demonstrate Safety and Efficacy of Mutant Calreticulin–Specific Monoclonal Antibody in Myelofibrosis
In patients with CALR exon 9–mutated myelofibrosis who were resistant or intolerant to prior Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor therapy or ineligible for such treatment, the first-in-class mutant calreticulin–specific monoclonal antibody INCA033989 as monotherapy or in combination with ruxolitinib...
Self-Acupressure May Ease Fatigue in Ovarian Cancer Survivors
In a phase III single-blind randomized clinical trial reported in JAMA Network Open, Zick et al found that self-acupressure—taught via a mobile app—provided a safe, low-cost approach for managing fatigue in ovarian cancer survivors. “In this randomized clinical trial, true self-acupressure and sham ...
Pirtobrutinib Improves Progression-Free Survival vs Bendamustine/Rituximab in Front-Line CLL/SLL
The first prospective, randomized phase III trial of a noncovalent Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor exclusively in treatment-naive patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL)—BRUIN CLL-313—demonstrated a statistically significant and clinically...
Deep-Learning CT Biomarker Predicts Survival Better Than Traditional Measures in Immunotherapy-Treated Advanced NSCLC
Sako et al conducted a prognostic study to evaluate whether a fully automated deep-learning radiomic biomarker based on serial CT scans could improve prediction of overall survival in patients with advanced non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors. Their findings,...
Improved Contralateral Breast Cancer Risk Knowledge With Personalized Counseling Tool
Patients with unilateral breast cancer who underwent quantitative counseling with a personalized tool incorporating genetic testing results were better informed of their contralateral breast cancer risk compared with those who received standard counseling, according to results from the GET FACTS...
HCC: Real-World Patterns of Systemic Therapy, Sequencing, and Survival
A recent retrospective cohort study has described the current treatment patterns, sequencing, and survival outcomes among patients receiving systemic therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The findings, which were published by Lau-Min et al in JAMA Network Open, showed that...
Validation of Pathology-AI Integration Tool for Risk Stratification in Locally Advanced Colon Cancer Without Chemotherapy
The Combined Analysis of Pathology and Artificial Intelligence (AI; CAPAI) model effectively stratified patients with colon cancer into distinct prognostic groups, identifying nearly half as low-risk, with “favorable” cancer-specific survival outcomes in the absence of adjuvant chemotherapy,...
Final Overall Survival Confirms Benefit of Durvalumab Plus FLOT in Resectable Gastric and Gastroesophageal Junction Adenocarcinomas
The addition of the PD-L1–targeting monoclonal antibody durvalumab to conventional perioperative chemotherapy with fluorouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin, and docetaxel (FLOT) resulted in a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in overall survival, with benefit seen...
Are Glycemic Index and Load Associated With Lung Cancer Risk?
Based on the results of a population-based cohort study published in Annals of Family Medicine by Wang et al, high dietary glycemic index is linked to increased risks of lung cancer, non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and small cell lung cancer (SCLC), whereas glycemic load is inversely associated ...
Is Chronic Hepatitis C Infection Associated With Pancreatic Cancer?
A retrospective, national, population-based cohort study of 6.3 million veterans, which was published in JAMA Network Open, found that individuals with chronic hepatitis C virus developed pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma at younger ages and had a higher risk compared with those without the...
ADCs vs Standard Chemotherapy: Cardiotoxicity in HER2-Positive Advanced Breast Cancer
A systematic review and meta-analysis published in JAMA Network Open compared the cardiotoxicity of novel antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) with that of standard trastuzumab-containing chemotherapy in patients with HER2-positive locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer, finding that treatment...
