Article Synopsis
  • The RESILIENT trial compared the effectiveness of liposomal irinotecan and topotecan as second-line treatments for small cell lung cancer (SCLC) after initial chemotherapy.
  • No significant difference in overall survival (OS) was observed, with liposomal irinotecan showing a median OS of 7.9 months and topotecan at 8.3 months.
  • Liposomal irinotecan had a higher objective response rate (ORR) of 44.1% compared to 21.6% for topotecan, but both treatments had similar safety profiles with grade ≥3 adverse events.

Department of Medical Oncology, Cancer Center Amsterdam, Amsterdam University Medical Centers, University of Amsterdam, Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Electronic address:

Background: Consensus about the definition and treatment of oligometastatic oesophagogastric cancer is lacking.

Objective: To assess the definition and treatment of oligometastatic oesophagogastric cancer across multidisciplinary tumour boards (MDTs) in Europe.

Material And Methods: European expert centers (n = 49) were requested to discuss 15 real-life cases in their MDT with at least a medical, surgical, and radiation oncologist present.

Introduction: Perioperative chemotherapy improves overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) compared with surgery alone in patients with resectable gastric adenocarcinoma (GA) or gastro-oesophageal junction adenocarcinoma (GEJA). The addition of trastuzumab to chemotherapy improves outcomes in patients with HER2-positive advanced gastric cancer (GC), and we aimed to explore its role in the perioperative setting.

Material And Methods: This Spanish, multicentre, open-label phase II trial evaluated the efficacy and toxicity of perioperative capecitabine, oxaliplatin and trastuzumab (XELOX-T) in patients with HER2-positive resectable GA or GEJA.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) targeting the programmed cell death-1 (PD-1)-programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1) axis have shown promising results in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, some of them with persistent responses to these agents that form a population of long-term survivors. Despite the variable definition of PD-L1 positivity in tumors, an association between expression and response has been reasonably consistent in advanced NSCLC. In addition, the clinical efficacy of ICIs seems to be related to the genomic landscape of the tumor in terms of mutational burden and clonal neoantigens.
