This week, we’ll discuss a study that compared two combination treatments for previously untreated patients with localized pancreatic cancer. Then, we’ll explore whether a longer-established diagnosis of cancer is associated with higher risk of severe COVID-19 infection or death from the virus. Last, we’ll review the FDA’s recent approval of a CAR T-cell immunotherapy for patients with relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma.
