ACRO Summit

Idalid Franco, MD, MPH, discusses the integration of immunotherapy, molecular biomarkers, and risk factors for recurrence into the endometrial cancer paradigm.

Steven E. Finkelstein, MD, DABR, FACRO, discusses the importance of disseminating treatment advancements and ongoing research in radiation oncology.

Stereotactic ablative radiotherapy has shown clinical benefit in combination with immunotherapy in early-stage NSCLC, making it a viable treatment to consider.

Quad Shot radiation plus a checkpoint inhibitor significantly improved local control vs Quad Shot alone and was well tolerated as a palliative treatment for patients with advanced head and neck cancer.

I-Chia (Daniel) Liu, MD, discusses surgical and local control outcomes following short-course radiation therapy and chemotherapy for rectal cancer.

Robert W. Mutter, MD, discusses the nuances of partial breast irradiation in early-stage breast cancer.

A post-hoc analysis showed dose escalation of radiation therapy was safe and elicited similar efficacy in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.

Charles B. Simone II, MD, FASTRO, FACRO, discusses advanced radiation techniques that could reduce cardiac toxicities.

James Knight, MD, discusses the potential launch of a case series of patients with brain-metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma.

Jason Efstathiou, MD, DPhil, discusses the role of tri-modality therapy in patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer.

Vlad Gabriel Zaha, MD, PhD, discusses the risk of cardiovascular toxicity in patients with lung cancer undergoing treatment with radiation.

A case study of a patient with pre-B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia showed helical tomotherapy with IMRT-based TBI is a viable option for organ sparing.

Nina Sanford, MD, discusses how radiation could help improve QOL for patients with rectal cancer and situations when radiation or surgery could be omitted.

Prolonged duration from neoadjuvant SCRT to surgery did not increase the risk of poor mesorectum specimen quality or post-operative morbidity in rectal cancer.

Raj Singh, MD, discusses radiation therapy in patients with metastatic lung cancer, highlighting the evolution of treatment within this landscape.

Idalid Franco, MD, MPH, discusses the use of radiation therapy and immunomodulatory agents in the treatment of endometrial cancer.

Paul D. Brown, MD, gives a history of prophylactic cranial irradiation in small cell lung cancer and describes its standing in the treatment paradigm.
