    ctDNA-guided surveillance and treatment monitoring in breast cancer

    In this week’s VJOncology podcast, we are delighted to bring you the latest advances in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA)-informed monitoring and follow-up strategies in breast cancer. Join leading experts Wolfgang Janni, MD, University of Ulm, Ulm, Germany, Arielle Medford, MD, Massachusetts General Cancer Center, Boston, MA, Seth Wander, MD, PhD, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA, and Rinath Jeselsohn, MD, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, MA, as they explore cutting-edge data from key studies including SURVIVE, LEADER, a Phase I/II trial of vepdegestrant, and PACE. Together, they discuss the evolving role of circulating tumor DNA in detecting molecular relapse, guiding early intervention strategies, monitoring treatment response, and predicting resistance across early and advanced ER+/HER2-negative and HR+/HER2-negative breast cancer settings.

    Cervical cancer awareness month: advances in prevention and treatment

    In recognition of Cervical Cancer Awareness Month, this episode of VJOncology podcasts explores advances in cervical cancer prevention and treatment. We hear from three leading experts who discuss pivotal developments shaping clinical practice. Dr Domenica Lorusso from Fondazione IRCCS National Cancer Institute of Milan examines the breakthrough combination of immunotherapy and radiotherapy in locally advanced disease, highlighting practice-changing data from the KEYNOTE-A18 trial that established pembrolizumab plus chemoradiotherapy as the new standard of care for stage 3 cervical cancer. Dr Amanda Psyrri from National Kapodistrian University of Athens underscores the critical role of HPV vaccination in preventing not only cervical cancer but also HPV-associated oropharyngeal malignancies, particularly those caused by high-risk subtypes 16 and 18. Finally, Dr Alberto Farolfi from IRCCS Istituto Romagnolo per lo Studio dei Tumori shares real-world evidence on the addition of bevacizumab to pembrolizumab-chemotherapy regimens in advanced cervical cancer, demonstrating survival benefits without increased serious adverse events. This episode offers essential insights into the evolving landscape of cervical cancer management from prevention through advanced disease.

    Immunotherapy's expanding role in GI cancers: from 1L to adjuvant settings

    This podcast is available on the GI Cancer Channel on VJOncology, an independent medical education platform, which is supported by Takeda (Gold) and Gilead Sciences (Silver). Supporters have no influence over the production of content. The levels of sponsorship listed are reflective of the amount of funding given. This VJOncology podcast explores the evolving landscape of immunotherapy in gastrointestinal malignancies, spanning from perioperative to adjuvant settings across multiple tumor types. Findings from the Phase II KEYSTEP-008 platform trial are presented, focusing on optimizing pembrolizumab-based combinations in MSI-high, mismatch repair deficient metastatic colorectal cancer. In addition, emerging biomarkers for immunotherapy beyond microsatellite instability in colorectal cancer are explored, including results from the TAPUR trial evaluating dual checkpoint inhibition in patients with BRCA1/2 alterations. The historically challenging adjuvant setting in hepatocellular carcinoma is examined through insights from the KEYNOTE-937 trial evaluating immunotherapy after curative-intent treatment. Finally, experts discuss the NEOSUMMIT-01 trial and how perioperative immunotherapy is transforming treatment strategies for locally advanced gastric and gastroesophageal junction cancers. Together, these perspectives highlight immunotherapy's expanding therapeutic potential across the GI cancer spectrum.
