Monitoring for Interstitial Lung Disease With Trastuzumab Deruxtecan: A Practice-Changing Case
By Erica Doubleday, NP
Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) combine the precision of targeted therapy with the cell-killing power of chemotherapy, and few have been more transformative in breast cancer than fam-trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd)

Refining the Approach to Advanced Ovarian Cancer: New Data From ASCO 2026
By Sindhu Priya Devarashetty, MD
Platinum-resistant ovarian cancer remains one of the more difficult clinical scenarios in gynecologic oncology, with a historical overall survival of roughly one year and limited options beyond weekly paclitaxel with or without bevacizumab.

Precision Over Protocol: What's New in HR-Positive, HER2-Negative Breast Cancer
By Sasha Stanton, MD, PhD
Hormone receptor-positive, HER2-negative (HR+/HER2-) breast cancer is the most common subtype of breast cancer and its treatment landscape has never been more complex or more promising.

CAR-T Cell Therapy for Relapsed Aggressive Lymphoma: Who to Refer, When, and What's Coming Next
By Paul Shaughnessy, MD
Before CAR-T cell therapy existed, patients with chemotherapy-refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma had a median overall survival of 6.3 months, a complete response rate of 7%, and only 20% alive at two years.

New Drugs, New Standards: What's Changing in Gastroesophageal Cancer Treatment
By Allan Pereira, MD, PhD
Gastroesophageal cancers (encompassing adenocarcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas of the esophagus and stomach, including gastroesophageal junction tumors) have seen more treatment advances in the past two years than in the preceding decade.

Upper GI Cancers at ASCO 2026: A New HER2-Positive Standard, a Negative Dual-IO Trial, and Two Signals From Asia
By Dr. Ronan Hsieh
Upper GI cancers remain among the most lethal malignancies worldwide, and the treatment landscape has been evolving rapidly since the approvals of trastuzumab in HER2-positive disease and checkpoint inhibitors across the HER2-negative population.

Colorectal Cancer at ASCO 2026: When to Stop Immunotherapy, How to Use BRAF-Targeted Therapy, and Why Exercise Belongs in the Treatment Plan
By Stacey A. Cohen, MD
Before discussing any of the specific advances from ASCO 2026, the single most important principle in colorectal cancer is straightforward: test all patients for microsatellite instability (MSI).
