Rearranged during transfection (RET) and tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) fusions are involved in various adult and paediatric cancers, including thyroid cancers. There is a high mortality rate for some of these cancers, partly due to the lack of efficient detection, diagnosis, and prognosis. The US and European guidelines recommend genomic testin…

Despite available treatments, many patients with acute myeloid leukaemia, or AML, are in need of additional therapeutic options. Thankfully, there hundreds of clinical trials for new interventions that could rectify this, but which options can we start to consider, for which patients and when? To answer our questions on this topic, we’ve invited th…

Although most commonly a disease of the old, Acute Myeloid Leukaemia is also a significant burden for younger patients, but it can present in different ways and they should not be treated equal. So how should younger and older patients be classified and treated? To help answer some of our questions on this topic is Dr. Tapan Kadia, Associate Profes…

For patients with myelodysplastic syndrome, or MDS, their therapy options vary considerably depending on their prognosis and risk of developing AML. Today we discuss risk stratification systems and their rationale, and consider their utility in clinical practice. To answer our questions on this topic, we welcome Professor Detlaf Haase, medical dire…

Histological specimens are recommended to assess a patient’s PD-L1 status; however, it is not always easy or even feasible to secure a histological specimen in advanced cancers such as stage IV NSCLC. Cytological specimens are typically used in this setting to assess other molecular markers such as ALK or ROS1 – should they also be used to assess P…
