James J. Harding, MD, provides a high-level overview of systemic therapy for untreated unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC) based on NCCN Guidelines, and discusses the evolving treatment landscape, including the rationale for combination immunotherapy (IO) and how additional IO combinations may address unmet needs like depth of response and resistance.

Panelists discuss how the NCCN Guidelines define lower-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (LR-MDS) based on clinical hallmarks such as anemia and cytopenias, with treatment decisions guided by prognostic scoring systems (IPSS-R, IPSS-M), and how real-world data supports the evolving first-line treatment landscape for LR-MDS, including the use of therapies such as luspatercept.

Hope S. Rugo, MD, FASCO, is featured in this series.

Hope S. Rugo, MD, FASCO, discusses how the phase 3 ELEVATE study evaluates the combination of elacestrant with abemaciclib in patients with ER+/HER2– advanced or MBC who have progressed on prior endocrine therapy.

Evan Y. Yu, MD, discusses how the goals of therapy for a patient with newly- diagnosed metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer are to control disease progression, extend survival, maintain quality of life, and delay the transition to castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Evan Y. Yu, MD, introduces case 1, a 68-year-old patient with newly diagnosed metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC), highlighting the clinical presentation, diagnostic workup, and treatment considerations for high-volume metastatic disease.

Panelist discusses how talquetamab’s step-up dosing strategy aims to mitigate cytokine release syndrome, a common immunologic toxicity. The reported grade 1 CRS with altered taste and dry mouth represents a mild manifestation compared with the MonumenTAL-1 trial, where the initial SUD schedule showed varying CRS rates. Real-world evidence has largely validated trial findings, though alternative SUD approaches may offer different risk-benefit profiles. The optimal SUD strategy continues to evolve as clinical experience expands, balancing efficacy with tolerability.
