TL;DR: There is a critical need to address disparities in receipt of guideline-concordant lung cancer care among elderly in the US, and underutilization of these services is a concern.

TL;DR: Positron emission tomography is potentially useful for accurate initial staging of SCLC and can ensure that a patient's disease is not overstaged by CT scan, which might result in denied potentially curative treatment for limited-stage SCLCs.

TL;DR: The safety and preliminary efficacy of the combination of SD-101 and pembrolizumab is assessed, with promising results in patients with recurrent central giant cell granuloma.

TL;DR: SD-101, a synthetic CpG-ODN agonist of TLR9, stimulates dendritic cells to release IFN-alpha and mature into antigen presenting cells - activating T cell anti-tumor responses.

TL;DR: The highly selective TRK inhibitor larotrectinib showed durable antitumour efficacy and a favourable safety profile in patients with TRK fusion-positive thyroid carcinoma, and show that patients with advanced non-medullary thyroid carcinomas who may require systemic therapy could be considered for testing for gene fusions by next-generation sequencing.
