AN AUTHORITATIVE RESOURCE FOR EVERYTHING ABOUT CANCER
Cancer Education
Explore expert insights on the fundamentals of cancer, including how it develops, key risk factors, prevention strategies, and treatment options. This section also highlights cancer awareness months and related observance days and weeks. Commentaries from our network of oncology professionals shed light on critical issues that require greater attention across the cancer care and research continuum.
Advanced Chondrosarcoma Finally Has Systemic Treatment Options Under Study
By Varun Monga, MBBS
Conventional chondrosarcoma has historically had no approved systemic therapy given its resistance to chemotherapy and radiation.

Autologous Transplant in Multiple Myeloma: Still the Standard as Quadruplet Therapy and Cellular Immunotherapy Advance
By Jason Chandler, MD
Autologous stem cell transplant has anchored newly diagnosed multiple myeloma treatment for decades, and every major guideline body still recommends it for eligible patients.

Immunotherapy Is Moving Earlier Into Head and Neck Cancer Treatment
By Hyunseok Kang, MD, MPH
Head and neck cancer treatment has historically advanced roughly once a decade, but two meaningful updates are arriving together this year

MDS, MECOM-Rearranged Leukemia, and BPDCN: New Data Reshaping Treatment Choices
By Cecilia Arana Yi, MD
The VERONA trial finds venetoclax adds no survival benefit in higher-risk MDS; new data illuminate outcomes in MECOM-rearranged AML and BPDCN, where transplant remains the strongest predictor of survival.

The New Frontier in Lung Cancer Therapy: Targeted Therapy, and Bispecific Antibodies
By Robert Lin, MD
Adjuvant targeted therapy already has a track record in early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) driven by EGFR or ALK alterations, where it has meaningfully reduced recurrence after surgery.

Resistance to KRAS Inhibitors Is Multilayered, and Lineage Plasticity Deserves More Attention
By Konstantin Dragnev, MD
Resistance to KRAS inhibitors should be understood as three distinct categories, primary/intrinsic, adaptive/non-genetic, and acquired/genetic, each with different mechanisms and different implications for how to sequence or combine therapy.

Early Relapse DLBCL: A Case-Based Guide to CAR T-Cell Referral, Product Selection, and Post-CAR-T Sequencing
By Vipal Durkal, MD
Early relapse diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), defined as relapse within 12 months of frontline therapy, should prompt evaluation for second-line CAR T-cell therapy rather than default salvage chemotherapy and transplant.

Castleman Disease: Redefining the Spectrum Between "One Lymph Node" and "Many"
By Joshua Brandstadter, MD, PhD, MSc
Castleman disease is not one disease but a polyclonal lymphoproliferative disorder spanning a spectrum from single-lymph-node (unicentric) to widespread (multicentric) involvement, with an emerging "oligocentric" category recognized in between.

EGFR Resistance Is Heterogeneous, and That Should Change How We Study New Drugs
By Joshua Sabari, MD
Resistance to third-generation EGFR inhibitors is far more heterogeneous than the resistance patterns seen after earlier-generation drugs, and in 40-50% of patients, no single resistance mechanism can even be identified.
