Background And Objectives: IO has transformed cancer management, but its adoption in advanced cancer patients varies by tumor type. With more Stage IV patients undergoing surgery, understanding site-specific outcomes in these challenging patients is essential. We aimed to evaluate IO use and survival trends for Stage IV cancer patients across high-incidence cancers in the US.

Bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) have emerged as crucial therapeutic agents for patients with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, multiple myeloma, and most recently, lung cancer. These therapies have demonstrated remarkable efficacy in clinical trials; however, multidisciplinary collaboration is essential to ensure optimal patient outcomes amid the operational complexities associated with BsAb therapy. As BsAbs are being prepared for broader adoption, clinicians and treatment centers must navigate operational challenges, including financial considerations, patient selection, caregiver involvement, and transitions of care.

Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) is a formidable global health challenge, responsible for the majority of cancer-related deaths worldwide. The Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Receptor (PDGFR) has emerged as a promising therapeutic target in NSCLC, given its crucial involvement in cell growth, proliferation, angiogenesis, and tumor progression. Among PDGFR inhibitors, avapritinib has garnered attention due to its selective activity against mutant forms of PDGFR, particularly PDGFRA D842V and KIT exon 17 D816V, linked to resistance against conventional tyrosine kinase inhibitors.
