The Journal of Clinical Oncology is ASCO's flagship journal and the workhorse of clinical oncology, publishing trials, ASCO guidelines, and the abstract supplements for the ASCO Annual Meeting.
JCO publishes three issues a month, carrying phase 2 and 3 trials across all tumour types, ASCO clinical practice guidelines (for example on immune-related adverse events), health-services and survivorship research, and the annual-meeting abstract supplements that make it the most cited oncology journal by volume. Hybrid access; guidelines are free. Sister titles include JCO Precision Oncology, JCO Oncology Practice and JCO Global Oncology.

A second randomised confirmation that adding a Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor to first-line bendamustine-rituximab delays progression in older patients with mantle cell lymphoma, with a toxicity profile that did not improve as much as the drug's selectivity promised.
The evidence behind the United States approval of brentuximab vedotin with lenalidomide and a rituximab product for relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma after two or more lines in patients not eligible for an autologous transplant or CAR-T. It is also the first demonstration that a CD30-directed conjugate helps in a disease where CD30 expression is variable.

The uninjected-lesion responses are the most important result any oncolytic virus trial has produced, because they are the first strong clinical evidence that the mechanism is systemic immunity rather than local lysis. The caution is the same as always: this is a single-arm cohort in a population with no standard option, and the randomised confirmatory trial has not read out.

Patients with high-risk bladder cancer confined to the lining whose disease has not responded to BCG now have a bladder-sparing option that clears the cancer in most cases, delivered through a simple outpatient procedure. It may allow many to avoid or defer cystectomy, a life-changing operation. Whether responses translate into avoided progression and cystectomy over the long term, and how it compares with cystectomy on survival, remain to be shown.

Together with the DESTINY-PanTumor02 biliary cohort this is the evidence behind trastuzumab deruxtecan's tumour-agnostic IHC 3+ label being used in gallbladder cancer; the lung toxicity rate, higher than in breast cancer, is the caution for a population with pre-existing lung and liver compromise.
For hormone-receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer that has already had chemotherapy, Dato-DXd controls the disease for longer with fewer severe side effects than chemotherapy, but does not help patients live longer, so it is not a standard option here. The result is a reminder that progression-free survival is a surrogate; regulators and clinicians should wait for survival data before adopting an ADC in a setting where later therapies are effective.
Blinatumomab belongs in the treatment of low-risk marrow relapse in children; isolated extramedullary relapse needs new approaches.

Meningioma had no systemic therapy with proven activity; this cohort shows that matching a drug to the NF2 mutation can slow progression, and it validates the synthetic-lethal idea that NF2-deficient cells depend on FAK. It is a signal-finding result against historical controls, not yet a change to standard care.
BRAF V600E testing is mandatory in childhood high-grade glioma and the combination is a standard at relapse and, increasingly, alongside or before radiotherapy in newly diagnosed disease; it supported the tumour-agnostic approval in children.
Trastuzumab deruxtecan 5.4 mg/kg is the approved regimen for HER2-mutant lung cancer after platinum chemotherapy, and the trial is a rare example of dose optimisation improving safety without losing efficacy.
Immunotherapy first is the standard for BRAF-mutant advanced melanoma in patients who can wait for a response; targeted therapy is reserved for rapid control or after immunotherapy.

For the majority of the world's head and neck cancer patients who cannot afford full-dose checkpoint inhibitors, a low dose added to oral metronomic chemotherapy is a tested alternative that improves survival. It also challenges the assumption that approved doses are the necessary doses: pharmacology had long suggested receptor saturation at far lower exposures.

Olaparib maintenance remains a standard option because of its progression-free benefit, tolerability and long-term survivors, but patients should know that it has not been shown to extend average survival.
Neoadjuvant treatment is now the standard for borderline resectable pancreatic cancer, and PREOPANC is the trial guidelines cite; the follow-on PREOPANC-2 tested FOLFIRINOX in the same setting.
The stage shift the pancreatic cancer page quotes (about three in four surveillance-detected cancers at stage I) and the strongest argument for offering surveillance to every germline carrier found by universal testing, which the NHS does not yet do outside research.

Nab-sirolimus is the approved first-line treatment for advanced malignant PEComa, and TSC1/TSC2 testing helps predict response.
Checkpoint inhibitors are now given to hundreds of thousands of patients a year, many in community clinics and emergency departments, so a common, explicit playbook for their autoimmune side effects saves lives. The guideline standardised when to stop, when to give steroids and when to escalate, and made multidisciplinary toxicity teams routine. It does not remove the judgement needed for rare events or for patients whose cancer is responding.
Allogeneic transplant should be included in the management plan of fit older adults with higher-risk myelodysplastic syndrome; donor search should start at diagnosis.
Lifileucel proved that Steven Rosenberg's decades-old TIL concept could be industrialised into a licensed product and gave patients with checkpoint-refractory melanoma, who otherwise have few options, a chance of durable remission. It is the first cell therapy approved for any solid tumour. The treatment requires surgery to harvest tumour, hospitalisation for lymphodepletion and IL-2, and specialised centres, so its reach is limited.

Carboplatin plus weekly paclitaxel is the chemotherapy backbone for advanced anal cancer and the base on which retifanlimab was added in POD1UM-303.
Every pancreatic cancer should be tested for mismatch repair deficiency because the 1 percent who have it can receive pembrolizumab, but responses in pancreatic cancer are less frequent and less durable than in other MSI-high cancers.
The measured size of the immunotherapy problem in prostate cancer: a response rate in the low single figures, no signal from PD-L1 expression, and durable benefit in a small subgroup nobody can yet identify prospectively. Any claim that immunotherapy is coming to prostate cancer has to explain this trial.
Pembrolizumab is an approved first-line option for advanced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma alongside cemiplimab.
Nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma is rarely fatal when treated with standard Hodgkin lymphoma protocols, so the goal for most patients is to give less treatment, not more; the minority with advanced or variant disease still need better options.

The trial behind the second PARP inhibitor licensed in prostate cancer, and the evidence that a somatic BRCA alteration predicts response as well as an inherited one. Together with TOPARP-A it is why tumour as well as germline sequencing is recommended in metastatic disease.
Avelumab is a chemotherapy-sparing option for single-agent-resistant gestational trophoblastic neoplasia, particularly where the alternative is combination chemotherapy.
Maximal resection followed by conformal radiotherapy is the mainstay for most childhood ependymoma, including in very young children; incompletely resected tumours need better approaches.
Whole-ventricular irradiation with a boost is a reasonable option after a good response to chemotherapy, but the spinal failure pattern shaped the next trial and keeps craniospinal irradiation as an alternative.
It turned the laboratory prediction into a clinical rule: after a second-generation ALK inhibitor, genotype the tumour, and treat the absence of an ALK mutation as evidence that the cancer has stopped depending on ALK.
Current intermediate-risk neuroblastoma protocols minimise chemotherapy to two to eight cycles by response and biology, following this study.

It is the practical guide to what to do after transformation: treat it as small-cell lung cancer with platinum and etoposide, expect central nervous system disease, and do not expect a checkpoint inhibitor to help.
It is the strongest evidence that the consensus subtypes could choose between the two first-line biologicals, and the clearest statement of why they have not: it is a retrospective analysis of a subset of one trial, on an assay nobody has validated for clinical use.
Microsatellite instability testing is recommended before perioperative chemotherapy for gastric cancer, and immunotherapy-based trials are the preferred approach for unstable tumours.
Sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma is treated with induction platinum-etoposide, and the response decides whether the patient is spared radical surgery.
Interfant-06 is the backbone and control benchmark for infant ALL; the successor Interfant-21 adds blinatumomab after this trial showed chemotherapy intensification had reached its limit.

Lenvatinib (like axitinib) is a guideline option for progressing adenoid cystic carcinoma; responses are uncommon, so it is reserved for documented progression rather than indolent disease.
HER2 testing is standard in salivary duct carcinoma and trastuzumab-docetaxel a first-line option for HER2-positive advanced disease, with trastuzumab deruxtecan available at progression.
Radiotherapy cannot be omitted in early-stage favourable Hodgkin lymphoma on the basis of a negative interim scan without a clinically relevant loss of tumour control. The scan is better at identifying who needs more than at identifying who needs less.
The formal adoption of PRODIGE 24 into practice; every later debate about giving chemotherapy before rather than after surgery starts from this recommendation.
It turned a single-centre observation into a prospectively validated one and concluded that AR-V7-positive men should be offered alternatives to abiraterone and enzalutamide. It also quantified the honest limit: two assays for the same analyte disagree on nearly one sample in five.
Predicting the primary site by gene expression and treating accordingly is not better than empirical chemotherapy, so guidelines do not recommend it; the field moved to genomic profiling for actionable targets instead.
A failure worth reading: the drug worked where patients could tolerate the regimen it was added to, and harmed where they could not. It is the strongest argument in lymphoma for designing first-line combinations around what an older patient can finish.

The record was linked automatically from the author list and affiliation; read the abstract above and the paper itself before relying on any figure.
Vemurafenib rescues children with refractory BRAF-mutant multisystem LCH, but it controls rather than cures, and how to stop it safely is an open question.
HER2 testing of every serous endometrial cancer and trastuzumab with first-line chemotherapy for HER2-positive advanced disease are now guideline recommendations; trastuzumab deruxtecan extends the option.
Nivolumab, like pembrolizumab, is a standard for relapsed Hodgkin lymphoma after transplant, and the activity seen here led to its testing in first-line therapy (S1826).

This is the separate paper behind the survival figure quoted for dacomitinib. It is a real but modest gain, and the US label notes that overall survival was not formally tested because the response rate comparison earlier in the testing order was not significant, so the P value is descriptive.
West Africa carries the highest germline burden reported for an unselected breast cancer population, and the genes are the same ones that predispose to TNBC elsewhere, so limited genetic services there should start with these families.

It made transformation predictable from the first biopsy, using two stains that most pathology laboratories can already run, which is the practical way to know which patients need close watching and early rebiopsy.
Family-history criteria miss nine in ten carriers, the finding that moved guidelines to offer germline testing to every patient.
The interim scan should be used to intensify treatment in early Hodgkin lymphoma, not to withhold radiotherapy. The 99.0 per cent five-year progression-free survival in the scan-negative favourable group with combined-modality treatment is the number any radiotherapy-sparing strategy has to match.

Nivolumab plus ipilimumab is the preferred first-line immunotherapy for mucosal melanoma where tolerated, given its lower intrinsic sensitivity to single-agent PD-1 blockade.
It stops a BRAF-mutant report being read as one uniform outlook, and it separates the class II and III mutations, which signal differently and are not covered by the encorafenib plus cetuximab label, from V600E.
Rituximab remains the CD20 antibody used in first-line diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. The result is a warning against assuming an antibody improvement carries from one B-cell malignancy to another: the same substitution improved progression-free survival in chronic lymphocytic leukaemia and in follicular lymphoma.

This is the approval that created the class, and it is also the clearest example of how the class is oversold. A durable response rate eight times the comparator is a real local effect on injectable lesions. The survival comparison did not reach significance, and the comparator was granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor rather than a checkpoint inhibitor, which by 2015 was already the standard. A reader told that a virus improves survival in melanoma is being told something this trial did not show.

Cabozantinib is an option for progressive medullary thyroid cancer, now mainly for RET-negative disease or after selpercatinib.
It established that an inherited BRCA2 mutation changes the disease and not only the treatment options, which is why a carrier's localised disease is generally treated more intensively and watched more closely rather than put on surveillance.
KIT testing is worthwhile in mucosal and acral melanoma, and imatinib is a guideline option for exon 11 or 13 mutations after or alongside immunotherapy.
Concurrent chemoradiation remains standard, but the excess of late non-cancer deaths is a reminder that swallowing dysfunction and aspiration after chemoradiation carry long-term risk.

SHH-activated, TP53-mutant medulloblastoma is a separate WHO entity treated as very high risk, and its diagnosis prompts germline testing of the child and family.
Interval-compressed VDC/IE is the standard first-line chemotherapy for localised Ewing sarcoma in North America; Euro Ewing 2012 later adopted it in Europe.
Surgery alone, or observation, is standard for low-risk neuroblastoma, with chemotherapy limited to those with symptoms or unfavourable biology.

It defined a class of lung cancer by a rearrangement and a clinical phenotype at the same time, and it is the reason ROS1 testing is recommended for every patient with adenocarcinoma rather than only for those with an obvious risk profile.
Vandetanib is an approved option for progressive medullary thyroid cancer, used less since selpercatinib for RET-mutant disease.

Pulsed dactinomycin is at least as good as weekly methotrexate for low-risk GTN, but many centres still prefer the multi-day methotrexate-folinic acid schedule, which was not tested here; overall cure approaches 100 percent whichever drug comes first.
The observational basis, with SWOG S0809, for offering chemoradiation after node-positive or margin-positive resection in the United States. UK practice rarely does so; a randomised trial has never been run.
The regimen that made extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma treatable. The usual explanation is that asparaginase is not a substrate of the P-glycoprotein pump this tumour expresses, which would explain why it works where anthracycline-based regimens do not; that mechanism is widely repeated but has been contradicted by at least one series.
It carried Iacobuzio-Donahue's autopsy finding into the clinic on a routine stain of the diagnostic sample, the basis for the still-unvalidated idea of choosing radiotherapy by SMAD4 status.
The trial did not change practice, but it established the idea that the days around surgery are a window in which cheap interventions might reduce metastasis, a line the same group pursued to a positive result with peritumoral lidocaine in 2023. It is a reminder that subgroup findings need confirmation, which is still awaited.

Every neuroblastoma risk group on this site (very low, low, intermediate, high) is defined by the INRG system, which allows trials across continents to be compared.
Weekly paclitaxel is a standard first-line option for angiosarcoma alongside doxorubicin, and it is also used with radiotherapy for unresectable scalp disease.
Turned the laboratory link between BRCA1 and basal-like biology into a clinical rule: a triple-negative diagnosis is itself a reason to offer germline testing, now embedded in NICE, NCCN and ESMO criteria.
