Introduction: Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) trastuzumab-deruxtecan (T-DXd) and sacituzumab-govitecan (SG) provided significant progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) improvements over chemotherapy (CT) in pretreated hormone receptor-positive (HR+) and triple-negative (TN)/HER2-low metastatic breast cancer (MBC). However, no direct comparison between the two exists, nor with the more recent datopotamab-deruxtecan (Dato-DXd).

Methods: We conducted a network meta-analysis (NMA) to compare efficacy and safety of T-DXd and SG in CT-pretreated HR+ and TN/HER2-low MBC and assess their benefit over standard CT, exploring also a comparison with Dato-DXd.

Background: Radiation oncologists closely monitor patients during weekly on-treatment visits (OTVs). This study examines whether routine patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) during OTVs change physicians' perceptions of treatment-toxicity and inform symptom-management.

Patient And Methods: IMPROVE is a single-arm prospective multicenter trial, conducted from 2020 to 2023.

Over the last decade, the annual Immunorad Conference, held under the joint auspicies of Gustave Roussy (Villejuif, France) and the Weill Cornell Medical College (New-York, USA) has aimed at exploring the latest advancements in the fields of tumor immunology and radiotherapy-immunotherapy combinations for the treatment of cancer. Gathering medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, physicians and researchers with esteemed expertise in these fields, the Immunorad Conference bridges the gap between preclinical outcomes and clinical opportunities. Thus, it paves a promising way toward optimizing radiotherapy-immunotherapy combinations and, from a broader perspective, improving therapeutic strategies for patients with cancer.

How Italian radiation oncologists use ChatGPT: a survey by the young group of the Italian association of radiotherapy and clinical oncology (yAIRO).

Radiol Med

December 2024

Radiation Oncology Unit, Department of Experimental and Clinical Biomedical Sciences, Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria Careggi, University of Florence, Florence, Italy.

Purpose: To investigate the awareness and the spread of ChatGPT and its possible role in both scientific research and clinical practice among the young radiation oncologists (RO).

Material And Methods: An anonymous, online survey via Google Forms (including 24 questions) was distributed among young (< 40 years old) ROs in Italy through the yAIRO network, from March 15, 2024, to 31, 2024. These ROs were officially registered with yAIRO in 2023.

Current literature suggests that emergency contraception, defined as a therapy aimed at preventing an unwanted pregnancy after unprotected or insufficiently protected intercourse, is used more by cancer survivors than by the general population. This may be related to reduced use of contraception in women after cancer diagnosis and, when it is used, to a choice of less effective methods, even in the absence of contraindications to hormonal options. The purpose of this review is to analyze the use of contraception in these patients, its predictors and the preferred methods, as well as to try to define timing and characteristics of an effective contraception counseling.
