Sunil W. Dutta, MD, discussed hypofractionation in breast reconstruction and why clinical follow up remains a key "soft skill" in an AI-driven field.

Sunil Dutta, MD, discusses integrating FAST-Forward and PRIME II trial data to personalize breast cancer treatment and sequencing radiation with ADCs.

Fumiko Chino, MD, FASCO, discussed the psychological "free fall" patients may experience after completion of radiation therapy for breast cancer.

Urinary toxicity, gastrointestinal toxicity, and sexual function are among the categories that should be tracked when treating patients with inoperable endometrial cancer.

Emily Papai, MD, discussed her study on RECIST responses to neoadjuvant radiation in retroperitoneal sarcoma and the challenges of organ-sparing surgery.

Dominique Rash, MD, presented several cases of patients with inoperable endometrial cancer at the 2026 ACRO Summit.

The differences in treatment setting are associational and are likely influenced by confounding by indication and not treatment effects.

According to Dominique Rash, MD, the incidence of inoperable endometrial cancer is rising in the US, and clinicians may encounter it more frequently.

A 5-year OS rate of 97.1% was observed among patients who received PSMA PET/CT restaging at first biochemical recurrence following prostatectomy.

Parul Barry, MD, discussed the evolving role of ADCs and targeted therapies in breast cancer, highlighting strategies for sequencing them with radiation.

Because there are so many options available for treating DCIS, the chosen method is often based on the patient's preferences, said Jean L. Wright, MD, FASTRO.

Parul Barry, MD, discusses advances such as ultrahypofractionated radiation and the growing role of AI in streamlining workflows for breast cancer care.

According to Jean L. Wright, MD, FASTRO, the flow of new information and research pertaining to ductal carcinoma in situ is constant.

Theranostics, a technique that combines traditional medication with diagnostics, is “limitless,” according to Brandon Mancini, MD, MBA, FACRO.

Based on the prevalence of GLP-1 agonists employed in standard medical practice, Li’s team will assess their impact on radiotherapy for prostate cancer.

Theranostics is an escalating field within radiation oncology and clinicians should be utilizing it every day, according to Brandon Mancini, MD, MBA, FACRO.

J. Isabelle Choi, MD, outlined evidence-based strategies for radiation dose escalation in locoregionally advanced breast cancer.

Experts discuss new modalities such as HPV vaccines, balancing hope with realism, and other considerations in cervical cancer management.

Throughout 2026, CancerNetwork® and the journal ONCOLOGY® will be dedicated to sharing the most critical developments in the radiation oncology field.

Host Brandon Mancini, MD, MBA, FACRO, introduces a special podcast series focused on delivering key insights and takeaways in the radiation oncology space.

ACT5 of the PLAT study found radiotherapy dose escalation did not improve outcomes, safety, or QOL in patients with anal cancer.

In patients less likely to respond to neoadjuvant chemoradiation, postoperative adjuvant therapy may be a viable strategy in this ESCC group.

Surgeons and radiation oncologists can collaborate to discuss expected toxicity and surgical outcomes among patients with resectable gastric cancer.

Data from the CRITICS-II trial support total neoadjuvant chemotherapy plus chemoradiotherapy as a preferred candidate for future study in this population.

Neoadjuvant immunotherapy plus chemotherapy did not definitively increase the risk of severe pneumonitis compared with adjuvant immunotherapy.
