Impact on Pulmonary Function in a Randomized Trial of Single-Fraction and Multifraction Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Pulmonary Oligometastatic Disease: An Analysis of TROG 13.01 (SAFRON II).

Purpose: The TROG 13.01 (SAFRON II) trial was a phase 2 multicenter trial comparing single-fraction (SF) and multifraction (MF) stereotactic body radiation therapy. Patients with 1 to 3 peripheral pulmonary oligometastases were randomized 1:1 between 28 Gy in 1 fraction and 48 Gy in 4 fractions.

"Now is the time for institutions to be investing in growing exercise programs as part of standard of care": a multiple case study examining the implementation of exercise oncology interventions.

Background: Implementation science seeks to systematically identify determinants, strategies, and outcomes within a causal pathway to help explain successful implementation. This process is applied to evidence-based interventions (EBIs) to improve their adoption, implementation, and sustainment. However, this method has not been applied to exercise oncology services, meaning we lack knowledge about implementing exercise EBIs in routine practice.

Beyond Medical Care: How Different National Models of Care Impact the Experience of Adolescent and Young Adult Cancer Patients.

Patient experience is positively associated with clinical effectiveness, quality care, and patient safety. This study examines the experience of care of adolescents and young adult (AYA) cancer patients from Australia and the United States, allowing a comparison of patient experiences in the context of different national models of cancer care delivery. Participants ( = 190) were aged 15-29 years and received cancer treatment from 2014 to 2019.

Comparison of Changes in Pulmonary Function After Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy Versus Conventional 3-Dimensional Conformal Radiation Therapy for Stage I and IIA Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: An Analysis of the TROG 09.02 (CHISEL) Phase 3 Trial.

Purpose: The TROG 09.02 CHISEL trial compared conventional radiation therapy (CRT) with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in patients with inoperable early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. Patients randomized to SBRT had less local failure and improved overall survival.

AYA 'Can-Sleep' programme: protocol for a stepped-care, cognitive behavioural therapy-based approach to the management of sleep difficulties in adolescents and young adults with cancer.

Background: Sleep problems are reported in up to 50% of adolescents and young adults (AYA) with cancer. Cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia (CBTi) is considered the gold-standard treatment. In the AYA population, CBTi is associated with improvements in insomnia, daytime sleepiness, fatigue and quality of life.
