The Phase 2 SMART trial demonstrates that ablative stereotactic magnetic resonance-guided adaptive radiation therapy improves local control (LC) and overall survival (OS) in patients with borderline resectable and locally advanced pancreas cancer. Long-term outcomes show encouraging OS and limited toxicity.
Researchers from Miami Cancer Institute published a study analyzing the use of tissue-agnostic therapeutics in patients with primary brain tumors. The publication discusses data from clinical trials and additional tissue-agnostic targets that hold promise for benefiting patients with PBTs.
A multi-institutional study found that immune checkpoint inhibition and single fraction stereotactic radiosurgery does not increase the risk of radiation necrosis in patients with brain metastases from non-small cell lung cancer. The study suggests that treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors can continue when radiation necrosis oc...
Researchers demonstrated the accuracy of an MR-guided radiotherapy system for intracranial stereotactic radiosurgery, achieving up to 99% precision in treating brain tumors. The study enables novel MR-guided radiotherapy technology for intracranial SRS, which has not been used with MR Linac systems.
