Despite advancements in the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) and mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), resistance and recurrence occur frequently and mutations might develop during treatment. Given the diverse range of treatment side effects,…
Driven by new insights into tumor biology and immune response, the therapeutic landscape for advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) continues to rapidly expand. As immunotherapy and VEGF-targeted combinations become central to RCC management, oncology teams must…
Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease is associated with a range of tumor types that require timely recognition and coordinated management. Accurate diagnosis depends on careful evaluation of clinical presentation, imaging findings, and genetic assessment, as these insights…
Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease is a rare, heritable condition in which approximately 80% of affected individuals have an affected parent, underscoring the critical importance of early identification and surveillance. However, its rarity and variable presentation can…
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a common autosomal dominant genetic disorder characterized by tumor predisposition and a wide spectrum of neurologic manifestations. Among its most serious complications are plexiform neurofibromas (PNs), which can cause significant morbidity…
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have transformed the landscape of oncology, achieving remarkable outcomes across tumor types. As outcomes improve and focus shifts to patient-centered care, however, the burden of ongoing treatment continues to impact patient quality…
Patients with HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer (MBC) who receive antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) may experience a spectrum of adverse events (AEs) that can lower their quality of life (QoL). Patients and caregivers rely on their care team…
The rapidly shifting therapeutic landscape for HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer (MBC) challenges clinicians to stay up-to-date on emerging clinical trial data, as well as recommendations on therapy selection and sequencing. Unfamiliarity with antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) treatment…
Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have recently been approved to treat HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer (MBC). In an ADC, a cytotoxic chemotherapeutic agent is conjugated to a monoclonal antibody directed against a tumor-associated antigen. Conjugation fundamentally alters tissue…
Upper gastrointestinal (GI) cancers are often undetected until late stages, leading to a poor prognosis. Treatment may be delayed or inappropriately assigned due to a lack of robust biomarker testing. To optimize patient outcomes, oncology clinicians…
