More than a billion people live in fragile, conflict-affected, and vulnerable settings requiring humanitarian support, where cancer is a substantial health issue. Despite its substantial effect on populations, cancer care remains underprioritised in emergency preparedness and response frameworks and humanitarian operational planning. This Policy Review summarises the perspectives and actionable recommendations from the First Global High-Level Technical Meeting on Non-communicable Diseases in Humanitarian Settings, with a focus on cancer.

Global efforts to highlight cancer and non-communicable diseases (NCDs) as a growing burden were first raised in 2005 World Health Assembly Resolution 58.22 and reinforced with Resolution 70.12 and the Global NCD action plan in 2017. One common thread for addressing cancer burden was the need to articulate cancer priorities within a comprehensive national cancer control plan (NCCP). Since 2012, the International Cancer Control Partnership provided guidance on cancer policy and planning, with the goal that every country should have an implementable plan.

Mashup Score: 20The landscape of primary mismatch repair deficient gliomas in children, adolescents, and young adults: a multi-cohort study - 2 day(s) ago
Primary MMRD is more common than previously reported in gliomas in children, adolescents, and young adults, is enriched in specific molecular subgroups, and is associated with poor outcomes. Accurate detection, genetic testing, early diagnosis through surveillance, and implementation of immunotherapy might improve survival for these patients.

This Series on Cancer Care in the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) countries comprises four papers and a Reportage in The Lancet Oncology. The first two papers focus on cancer care and outreach in the SAARC countries. Saiful Huq and colleagues explore the disparity of the region’s health-care systems, and the challenges that exist. In the third paper, the authors discuss the necessity of implementing an effective education and training system for the oncology health-care workforce.

In the USA, before a patient can receive certain treatments or medications, a prior authorisation from their health insurance company is needed. A new USA-wide survey by the American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) highlights that prior authorisations lead to serious adverse outcomes for people with cancer.

Mashup Score: 1Pharmacy closures in the USA and Europe - 6 day(s) ago
Nearly one in three retail pharmacies in the USA closed between 2010 and 2021, driving an unprecedented decline in pharmacies, particularly in Black and Latino neighbourhoods. This finding comes from a study published on Dec 3, 2024, using data from the National Council for Prescription Drug Programs, a US standard-setting body.

Procarbazine induces a higher mutation burden and novel mutational signatures in patients with Hodgkin lymphoma treated with eBEACOPP and their germline DNA, raising concerns for the genomic health of survivors of Hodgkin lymphoma and hereditary consequences for their offspring. However, replacing procarbazine with dacarbazine appears to mitigate gonadal and stem-cell toxicity while maintaining similar clinical efficacy.
