Furman, MD, professor of medicine, Morton Coleman, MD Distinguished Professor of Medicine, director, Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Research Center, Weill Cornell Medicine, and attending physician, NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, discusses the 42-month follow-up data of acalabrutinib monotherapy in patients with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Benjamin Weinberg, MD, assistant professor of medicine, and attending physician, Georgetown University Hospital, Medstar Health, discusses the overall prognosis of patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors.

<br /> Diego Villa, MD, MPH, clinical associate professor, Division of Medical Oncology, The University of British Columbia, discusses a retrospective analysis evaluating bendamustine and rituximab as induction therapy in both transplant eligible and ineligible patients with mantle cell lymphoma. <br />

Jacqueline C. Barrientos, MD, MS, discusses exciting novel combination strategies that are being presented at the 2019 ASH Annual meeting.

Brennan J. Decker, MD, PhD, discusses the role of identifying <em>EGFR</em> mutations in patients with lung cancers. In lung adenocarcinoma, there are many different activating mutations that can lead to the development of cancer, Decker explains.

James L. Mohler, MD, discusses the evolving role of genetic testing in patients with prostate cancer following the updates to the National Cancer Care Network Guidelines, which now include guidance for better practice in terms of conducting genetic testing in this patient population.

Benjamin Weinberg, MD, discusses his treatment decisions for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer and the role of cetuximab in this patient population.

Justin Taylor, MD, discusses the rationale for an ongoing phase II trial that is exploring the combination of vemurafenib, a BRAF inhibitor, plus the anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody obinutuzumab in previously untreated patients with classical hairy cell leukemia.

María Varela, MD, PhD, discusses the findings from a real-life analysis to confirm the benefit of regorafenib as treatment of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who have progressed on prior sorafenib. Regorafenib was approved by the FDA for second-line treatment in this patient population based on data from the phase III RESORCE trial.

Brain C. Baumann, MD, assistant professor of radiation oncology, Department of Radiation Oncology, Washington University School of Medicine St. Louis, explains the rationale for the study of adjuvant chemotherapy plus radiation versus radiation alone in patients with locally advanced bladder cancer.






Improving Overall Survival In Extensive Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer

Timil Patel, MD, discusses how to sequence therapies in a patient with rectal cancer with a single lung nodule.

Emese Zsiros, MD, PhD, FACOG, assistant professor of oncology, Department of Gynecologic Oncology, Center for Immunotherapy, Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center explains the rationale for the a phase II study, which combined pembrolizumab with bevacizumab in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer. Zsiros presented data on the study in early 2019 at the SGO Annual Meeting.

Marc J. Braunstein, MD, PhD, discusses the greatest challenge that still exists in the treatment paradigm of multiple myeloma.

Andreas Rimner, MD, gives an overview of his presentation titled, “Crossing the PACIFIC,” which he presented at the 2019 New York Lung Cancers Symposium. He evaluates some potential next steps for durvalumab (Imfinzi) following the practice-changing results from the PACIFIC trial.

Andrew M. Evens, DO, MSc, discusses the significance of the results from the phase III ECHELON-1 trial in which patients with stage III/IV classical Hodgkin lymphoma were treated with the combination of brentuximab vedotin plus doxorubicin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine.

Adil Daud, MD, compares the roles of immunotherapy versus dabrafenib plus trametinib targeted therapy combinations in patients with advanced melanoma. The latter combination is appropriate and even preventative in select patients, but the decision between checkpoint immune therapy and immunotherapy comes down to what is best for each patient.

George W. Sledge, Jr., MD, professor of medicine, Stanford University Medical Center, discusses the next steps for the phase III MONARH-2 trail following the positive interim analysis results presented during the 2019 European Society of Medical Oncology Congress.
