Abstract
The European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress 2024 presented pivotal new data across various trials that continue to explore the nuances of immunotherapy (ICI) in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small cell lung cancer (SCLC). In early-stage lung cancer, additional data was presented for immune-checkpoint-inhibitor therapy in the perioperative setting, aiming to deepen the knowledge of potential predictive markers. An update from the ADRIATIC study on limited-stage SCLC provided new insights into various subgroups, including the impact of different aspects of radiation therapy and the choice of platinum doublet chemotherapy. In the context of palliative treatment of NSCLC several studies focused on optimizing first-line therapy, e.g. by incorporating anti-TIGIT or LAG-3 antibodies. Additionally, the issue of targeting resistance pathways in patients with advanced NSCLC was addressed. Deescalation of therapy was the aim of low-dose versus standard-dose Pembrolizumab in advanced NSCLC. Preliminary data in thymic epithelial tumors (TET) and immune-checkpoint-inhibitor (ICI) therapy in combination with Lenvatinib were presented in the PECATI trial.
期刊介绍:
With the first issue in 2014, the journal ''Onkologie'' has changed its title to ''Oncology Research and Treatment''. By this change, publisher and editor set the scene for the further development of this interdisciplinary journal. The English title makes it clear that the articles are published in English – a logical step for the journal, which is listed in all relevant international databases. For excellent manuscripts, a ''Fast Track'' was introduced: The review is carried out within 2 weeks; after acceptance the papers are published online within 14 days and immediately released as ''Editor’s Choice'' to provide the authors with maximum visibility of their results. Interesting case reports are published in the section ''Novel Insights from Clinical Practice'' which clearly highlights the scientific advances which the report presents.
