Early-onset cancers (<50 yrs) are rising globally, linked to early-life exposures like diet, lifestyle, & microbiome changes. Awareness & dedicated studies are crucial. #Cancer #EarlyOnsetCancer #Oncology @oncoalert.bsky.social rdcu.be/d49Ol

Our thoughts on the evolving #posology of #Immunecheckpointinhibitors in @trends in #Cancer www.cell.com/trends/cance...

The evolving posology and administration of immune checkpoint inhibitors: subcutaneous formulations
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have transformed cancer care. Recently, atezolizumab gained its first global approval in a subcutaneous (SC) formulation by the UK medicines regulator, being notable as the first time an FDA- and/or European Medicines Agency (EMA)-approved ICI has been licensed via this administration route. Here, we discuss this approval, other SC ICIs in development, and the benefits and challenges of this administration route, including potential implications for patient care.

#Subcutaneous nivolumab approved by @fda.gov across all indications - follows approval of SC atezolizumab in Sept 2024. Will this be the preferred route of administration or will this suppress the development of new biosimilars? @oncodaily.bsky.social @hemoncwarner.bsky.social

Hugely interesting paper in #nature about #SONIA trial challenging frontline CDK4/6 use in #breastcancer - does this have implications for practice today? www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Early versus deferred use of CDK4/6 inhibitors in advanced breast cancer - Nature
The phase 3 SONIA trial challenges the benefits of using cyclin-dependent kinase 4 and 6 inhibitors as a first-line compared with second-line treatment.
