Dr. Jack West discusses the trial design of the PACIFIC trial of consolidation durvalumab (Imfinzi) after chemo/radiation for unresectable stage III NSCLC and highlights new data on overall survival and the different results in patient subgroups.

Dr. Jack West reviews the IMpower133 trial that integrated atezolizumab with first line chemo for extensive stage SCLC and discusses whether the results improve outcomes enough to change our standard of care in this setting.

Dr. Jack West describes an emerging theme that the best outcomes for patients with lung cancer and likely other cancer are best served by receiving the best agents up front, a strategy that implies a value in integrating more treatments into early combos.

Dr. Jack West reviews general principles for how local therapies are increasingly appropriate for selected patients with advanced NSCLC, whether at initial management, for limited progression on systemic therapy, or as local consolidation therapy.

Dr. Dan Goldstein reviews results of a trial of chemo regimen TIP (paclitaxel, ifosfamide, cisplatin) vs BEP (bleomycin, etoposide, cisplatin) for intermediate/poor risk germ cell tumors, with discussion of outcomes in patients with a p53 mutation.

Dr. Daniel Goldstein summarizes findings of a trial presented at ASCO 2018 by Dr. Kellolumpu-Lehtinen, assessing the benefit of adjuvant docetaxel for patients after radiation for patients with high or intermediate risk localized prostate cancer.

Dr. Daniel Goldstein reviews data on the positive predictive value of PET PSMA imaging in patients with biochemically relapsed prostate cancer, as presented by Wolfgang Fendler & colleagues at ASCO 2018.

Dr. Daniel Goldstein considers new data by Clarke & colleagues on a combination of the PARP inhibitor olaparib with abiraterone for molecularly unselected metastatic prostate cancer, along with providing a context of results from similar prior research.

Dr. Daniel Goldstein reviews data by Drs. Gulley & colleagues on PROSTVAC vaccine in metastatic prostate cancer & discusses the implications of trials that fail in phase III despite looking extremely favorable in phase II studies.

Dr. Daniel Goldstein reviews data in genitourinary oncology from ASCO 2018, including a study of higher dose or prolonged duration of radium-223 (Xofigo) compared to standard dosing for 6 months with this agent in patients with metastatic prostate cancer.
