The First Positive Phase 3 Trial Ever in Dedifferentiated Liposarcoma Changes a Difficult Conversation
By David Savage, MD
Dedifferentiated liposarcoma has had no positive phase 3 trial in its history, and existing chemotherapy options rarely delay progression beyond a few months.

Will Multispecific CAR T-Cell Therapy Replace Single-Target CD19 Treatment in Lymphoma?
By Saurabh Dahiya, MD, FACP
CD19-directed CAR T-cell therapy has transformed care for B-cell lymphomas, but most patients still relapse, often due to loss of the CD19 target.

Early-Stage Breast Cancer: Why Fewer Patients Need Chemotherapy, and More Need CDK4/6 Inhibitors
By Ruta Rao, MD
Genomic testing is increasingly identifying which early-stage, hormone receptor-positive breast cancer patients can safely skip chemotherapy, even among some node-positive premenopausal women.

Beyond G12C: KRAS Lung Cancer Is About to Become a Toolkit, Not a Single Target
By Benjamin Herzberg, MD
KRAS G12C is not the only KRAS mutation worth worrying about, and I think that idea is very close to being obsolete.

Triple Negative Breast Cancer Gets Real Momentum: What ASCO 2026 Changes for Patients Now
By Amulya Yellala, MD
Triple negative breast cancer has long been described as hard to treat and fast moving, but this year's data, much of it long-term follow-up on treatments already reshaping practice, continues to build real momentum.

Cellular Therapy Gets More Precise: In Vivo CAR T, a New Treg Therapy, and Menin Inhibitor Maintenance
By Moataz Ellithi, MD
Cellular therapy for blood cancers is moving in two directions at once: toward manufacturing CAR T-cells directly inside a patient's body rather than in a lab

Managing Bispecific T-Cell Engager Toxicity: CRS and ICANs in Practice
By Allison Hamner, PharmD, BCPS
Bispecific T-cell engagers (BiTEs) offer major efficacy in hematologic malignancies, but their signature toxicities—cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and ICANS—require real-time vigilance and management similar to CAR T-cell therapy.
