Article Synopsis
- The REFRACT trial is a UK-based clinical trial aimed at improving treatments for relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma (rrFL) by testing a new combination therapy of epcoritamab and lenalidomide against standard treatment options.
- Eligible participants are adults with specific types of follicular lymphoma, and the trial's main goal is to assess the effectiveness of the new therapy based on complete metabolic response as measured by PET-CT after 24 weeks.
- The study aims to fill the gap in understanding the safety and efficacy of novel therapies in comparison to existing standards, using a unique design to streamline the process and reduce the number of patients needed for reliable results.

Article Synopsis
- A decision aid (DA) was developed to help Hodgkin lymphoma survivors make informed choices about lung cancer screening, demonstrating a gap in available resources for this specific patient group.
- The pilot testing involved an online survey and focus groups, where participants showed improved knowledge and reduced decisional conflict after using the DA, as well as positive feedback on its format and content.
- Both survivors and practitioners acknowledged the DA's potential role in reducing anxiety regarding lung cancer risk while emphasizing the importance of consultations with clinical teams for additional guidance.
