An expert discusses how radiopharmaceuticals such as radium-223 offer a valuable different mechanism of action in treating advanced prostate cancer, requiring careful patient selection, safety monitoring including complete blood count (CBC) tracking, and practical management of adverse effects such as fatigue and nausea while following radiation safety protocols.

Panelists discuss how treatment selection between combination immunotherapy (IO) and chemotherapy alone should favor the FDA-approved carboplatin-paclitaxel-retifanlimab regimen for most patients with metastatic anal cancer, while avoiding checkpoint inhibitors in solid organ transplant recipients and maintaining that different checkpoint inhibitors are not necessarily interchangeable without specific trial data.

Panelists discuss how the PODIUM-303 study demonstrated improved progression-free survival (9.3 vs 7.4 months) and response rates (56% vs 44%) when adding retifanlimab to carboplatin-paclitaxel in first-line metastatic anal cancer, leading to FDA approval despite nonsignificant overall survival results due to 45% crossover in the interim analysis.

An expert discusses how emerging trial data, particularly from ASCENT-04, are reshaping first-line treatment strategies for PD-L1–positive metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC) by demonstrating the potential superiority of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) combined with immunotherapy over standard chemotherapy regimens.

An expert discusses how recent clinical advancements and biomarker-driven strategies are reshaping first-line treatment decisions in metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (mTNBC), emphasizing the critical need for early, optimized therapy to improve outcomes in this aggressive disease.

A panelist notes that while new treatments like luspatercept and imetelstat offer hope beyond traditional erythropoiesis-stimulating agents—which fail in many patients and provide limited response duration—variability in patient response, influenced by factors such as mutation burden, underscores the need for personalized therapies and continued development of agents that can modify disease progression and improve survival in low-risk myelodysplastic syndrome.

An expert discusses how the PEACE III combination of radium-223 and enzalutamide represents an effective treatment option for the limited population of patients who reach first-line metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) without prior androgen receptor pathway inhibitor exposure, while other combinations such as radium-223 plus olaparib showed mixed results with concerning toxicity profiles.
