Mashup Score: 4High-Dose Once-Daily Thoracic Radiotherapy in Limited-Stage Small-Cell Lung Cancer: CALGB 30610 (Alliance)/RTOG 0538 - 1 year(s) ago
PURPOSE Although level 1 evidence supports 45-Gy twice-daily radiotherapy as standard for limited-stage small-cell lung cancer, most patients receive higher-dose once-daily regimens in clinical practice. Whether increasing radiotherapy dose improves outcomes remains to be prospectively demonstrated. METHODS This phase III trial, CALGB 30610/RTOG 0538 (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT00632853),…

Mashup Score: 4Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Opioid Access and Urine Drug Screening Among Older Patients With Poor-Prognosis Cancer Near the End of Life - 1 year(s) ago
PURPOSE To characterize racial and ethnic disparities and trends in opioid access and urine drug screening (UDS) among patients dying of cancer, and to explore potential mechanisms. METHODS Among 318,549 non-Hispanic White (White), Black, and Hispanic Medicare decedents older than 65 years with poor-prognosis cancers, we examined 2007-2019 trends in opioid prescription fills and potency (morphine…

Mashup Score: 1Idecabtagene Vicleucel for Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma: Real-World Experience From the Myeloma CAR T Consortium - 1 year(s) ago
PURPOSE Idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel) is an autologous B-cell maturation antigen–directed chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy approved for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) on the basis of the phase II pivotal KarMMa trial, which demonstrated best overall and ≥ complete response rates of 73% and 33%, respectively. We report clinical outcomes with standard-of-care (SOC) ide-cel…

Mashup Score: 1Multiomic characterization to reveal a distinct molecular landscape in young-onset pancreatic cancer. - 1 year(s) ago
594 Background: Young-onset pancreatic cancer (YOPC; < 50 years at diagnosis) has been associated with male preponderance, extensive smoking history, and a trend towards improved survival compared with average-onset pancreatic cancer (AOPC; ≥70 years). However, the genomic and transcriptomic correlates underlying these clinical differences are incompletely understood. Using a large matched...

Mashup Score: 1Low-Grade Prostate Cancer: Time to Stop Calling It Cancer - 1 year(s) ago
Section:IntroductionProstate-specific antigen (PSA) screening for prostate cancer (PCa) remains highly controversial, largely because it is unclear whether the primary benefits of reducing rates of metastases and cancer mortality are worth the risks of overdiagnosis, overtreatment, and potential treatment-related morbidity. A major contributing factor to overdiagnosis and overtreatment is the…

Mashup Score: 1Sybil: A Validated Deep Learning Model to Predict Future Lung Cancer Risk From a Single Low-Dose Chest Computed Tomography - 1 year(s) ago
PURPOSE Low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) for lung cancer screening is effective, although most eligible people are not being screened. Tools that provide personalized future cancer risk assessment could focus approaches toward those most likely to benefit. We hypothesized that a deep learning model assessing the entire volumetric LDCT data could be built to predict individual risk without…

Mashup Score: 17Neoadjuvant Pembrolizumab in Localized Microsatellite Instability High/Deficient Mismatch Repair Solid Tumors - 1 year(s) ago
PURPOSE Pembrolizumab significantly improves clinical outcomes in advanced/metastatic microsatellite instability high (MSI-H)/deficient mismatch repair (dMMR) solid tumors but is not well studied in the neoadjuvant space. METHODS This is a phase II open-label, single-center trial of localized unresectable or high-risk resectable MSI-H/dMMR tumors. Treatment is pembrolizumab 200 mg once every 3…

1/ Great to see CALGB 30610/RTOG 0538 finally out! 🚨70 Gy/7 wk equivalent to 45 Gy BID/3 wk🚨 Some thoughts 1⃣Interesting that increased G3+ lymphopenia in 70Gy does not result in worse outcomes?! @StevenLin_MDPhD @CGrassberger @OncoAlert #LCSM https://t.co/su7WjYRuU9
