[Editorial] Microplastics and cancer: a looming threat?
Microplastics are a growing global concern and have been linked to various health conditions. A study presented by Ilias Dimeas and colleagues at the 2026 European Respiratory Society conference found a higher burden of microplastics in the lungs of patients with lung cancer than in those without cancer. In the study, 70% of 100 people undergoing a bronchoscopy had detectable microplastics in at least one sample, and patients with lung cancer were more likely to have detectable microplastics in their samples than patients without lung cancer.

[Comment] Looking at cancer burden in Africa through a new lens
Cancer remains a leading cause of death and disability globally, with a disproportionate rising burden in Africa.1,2 Effective policy response has been consistently hampered by fragmented and incomplete cancer surveillance data.3 For a long time, there has been an assumption that a global uniform framework for understanding cancer risk factors exists and is applicable universally.4 This concept of harmonised global data is plausible in well structured and well resourced health systems in which research and care systems are integrated—systems that exist mostly in high-income regions.

[Comment] Personalised medicine in oncology: inequality aversion in a fast-moving field
Personalised medicine has been shown to improve patient care and holds promise to further benefit treatment results. The Lancet Oncology Commission on accelerating equitable cancer genomics and precision oncology in health care and research provides an overview of state-of-the-art treatments and the situation in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs). From targeted treatment using companion diagnostics, identifying targets to guide treatment decisions, to broad ‘omics testing in cancer of unknown primary and metastasised tumours, the field is vast and inequalities exist within and between countries.

[Comment] Ethical priorities in global cancer genomics and precision oncology
Amid the promise of cancer genomics and precision oncology lies complex and ethically weighty issues. Genomics and other ‘omics are undoubtedly transforming cancer care for thousands of patients annually, enabling better prognosis, access to treatments or trials, or informing relatives. Yet, these interventions overwhelmingly benefit people in high-income countries: they are failing to reach most patients with cancer who could benefit, and those who are reached could, for reasons including health system readiness or data representation and interpretation, receive no or marginal benefit to their care.

[Comment] Inequities in access to precision oncology: shared challenges, unified blueprint
Precision oncology has substantially changed the therapeutic landscape from a “one size fits all” approach to that of individualised (or personalised) treatments.1 The promise of precision oncology extends across the entire cancer continuum from prevention, early diagnosis, subtyping of tumours, treatment selection, risk-adapted therapies, development of novel anticancer medicines, and post-treatment surveillance.2 The Lancet Oncology Commission on accelerating equitable cancer genomics and precision oncology in health care and research focuses on the current challenges and practical solutions to faciliate wider implementation.

[Comment] Beyond the evidence: why multistakeholder cooperation will determine whether cancer genomics reaches patients
The Lancet Oncology Commission on accelerating equitable cancer genomics and precision oncology presents a worrying picture.1 While the number of precision oncology drugs continues to increase,2,3 access to testing and matched therapies remains profoundly unequal, research is concentrated in high-income countries (HICs) and populations of European ancestry, and expanding testing capacity has not always translated into proportionate population-level benefit. The Commission's survey of national cancer control programmes (NCCPs), conducted in collaboration with the Union for International Cancer Control and WHO International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) across 34 countries, found partial integration of genomics into most NCCPs, including in HICs.

[Comment] Ecological neglect: critical oversight in precision oncology governance
The Lancet Oncology Commission on accelerating equitable cancer genomics and precision oncology in health care and research1 examines the gap between the promise of precision oncology and its delivery across global health systems. Raffaella Casolino and colleagues argue that precision oncology has advanced with remarkable speed, yet its clinical impact and sustainability remain uneven, meaning that for much of the world, precision oncology remains just a promise. The authors argue that if the vision of precision oncology is to be realised, health systems need to generate, integrate, govern, and learn from data.

[Comment] Affordability in the era of precision oncology
Cancer drugs are increasingly unaffordable for health systems. Global spending on cancer drugs will reach US$441 billion by 2029.1 This 75% increase over 5 years cannot be explained by population ageing or changing prevalence alone. Instead, the price of cancer drugs is driving accelerated spending growth.2 Rising prices place considerable pressure on health systems, particularly when increased spending is not matched by commensurate improvements in patient health. Unfortunately, many expensive cancer drugs have highly uncertain safety and efficacy evidence at the time of market authorisation.

[Comment] Counting who was not tested: artificial intelligence extraction of genomic and treatment data from hospital records
The Lancet Oncology Commission on accelerating equitable access to cancer genomics and precision oncology provides an important framework defining indicators that health systems can and should measure.1 Operationalising these indicators, however, requires substantial data infrastructure. One indicator in the Commission's Precision Oncology Access Cascade defines the group of eligible patients who receive recommended genomic testing. The number of patients tested is relatively straightforward to obtain; however, the number meeting the guideline criteria is not because this information is usually recorded as unstructured narrative text rather than as a structured field.

[Correspondence] Re-evaluating aglatimagene in localised prostate cancer
We read with great interest the Article by Theodore L DeWeese and colleagues detailing the results of the PrTK03 phase 3 trial, which evaluated the addition of aglatimagene besadenovec (CAN-2409) and valacyclovir to standard-of-care external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) for localised prostate cancer.1 We commend the investigators for executing this decade-spanning study. The biological premise—using an adenoviral vector to exert localised cytotoxicity of a systemically administered prodrug while stimulating a T-cell-mediated immune response—is scientifically sound.

[Correspondence] Proton pump inhibitors and durvalumab in PACIFIC
Leonardo Brunetti and colleagues’ post-hoc analysis of the PACIFIC trial in The Lancet Oncology addresses an important and clinically timely question: whether baseline exposure to proton pump inhibitors or antibiotics modifies the benefit of durvalumab after concurrent chemoradiotherapy in patients with unresectable stage III non-small-cell lung cancer.1 The observed association between proton pump inhibitor exposure and inferior progression-free and overall survival in the durvalumab group, but not in the placebo group, is thought provoking.

[Correspondence] Proton pump inhibitors and durvalumab in PACIFIC
I read with great interest the Article by Leonardo Brunetti and colleagues,1 which reported that baseline exposure to proton pump inhibitors was associated with substantially inferior progression-free and overall survival among patients receiving durvalumab after concurrent chemoradiotherapy in the PACIFIC trial, but not among those receiving placebo. The use of a randomised, placebo-controlled dataset to separate prognostic from predictive associations is a genuine advance over observational literature.

[Correspondence] Proton pump inhibitors and durvalumab in PACIFIC
Leonardo Brunetti and colleagues report an important post-hoc analysis of the PACIFIC trial,1 showing that baseline exposure to proton pump inhibitors, and to a lesser extent antibiotics, was associated with inferior survival outcomes following durvalumab, but not placebo, in patients with unresectable stage III non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The randomised placebo-controlled setting and differential analysis across the treatment group are major strengths. Nevertheless, proton pump inhibitor exposure itself was not randomised, and the clinical context in which proton pump inhibitors were prescribed could be crucial to interpretation.

[News] Toxic dust around the World Trade Center
On Sept 8, 2026, New York City authorities released more than 170 000 pages of documents showing that officials misled the public about toxic air quality levels after the Sept 11, 2001, attack that killed more than 2600 people at the World Trade Center (WTC). Health researchers say the documents contain little medical information that is new but confirm that carcinogens and toxins were present months after the attacks, exposing 400 000 people in lower Manhattan to smoke, dust, and combustion products.

[Perspectives] Cancer's new anxiety: not a death sentence, but delay
Throughout the history of cancer research, hyperbole has never been in short supply—whether it be Richard Nixon's war, Joe Biden's moonshot, or Cancer Research UK's 2023 declaration of a golden era. Driving such rhetoric has been the need to act against an enduring societal concern—cancer, the so-called Big C, society's number one fear.

[Perspectives] Against cancer, not against dying: Ernest Becker in the oncology clinic
When American cultural anthropologist Ernest Becker was awarded the 1974 Pulitzer Prize for his book, The Denial of Death, he had died of colorectal cancer only 2 months earlier. More than half a century later, the book feels almost uncomfortably contemporary in the oncology clinic. Although the book does not address cancer care directly, it speaks to what cancer reveals: mortality, and the symbolic structures we build to make that knowledge bearable. For Becker, identities, professions, institutions, religions, families, reputations, and achievements are ways in which the fragile self seeks continuity beyond finitude.

[Perspectives] Sir Chris Hoy's Tour de 4 charity cycle ride returns
Mention the name Chris Hoy and it's natural to picture the Olympic cyclist, who won six gold medals and one silver in Sydney, Athens, Beijing, and London between 2000 and 2012. Fans voted for him to be named as the BBC Sports Personality of the Year in 2008, and he was knighted by the late Queen Elizabeth in the 2009 New Year honours list. However, over the past 2 years, Hoy has become famous for a completely different reason. In October, 2024, he revealed that he had received a terminal diagnosis of stage-4 prostate cancer, which had spread to his bones.

Cancer is a growing contributor to the disease burden in Africa, with rising cases, deaths, and DALYs disproportionately affecting children, adolescents, and young adults. The increase in age-standardised mortality and DALY rates stands in sharp contrast to the ambitions of the Sustainable Development Goals for 2030 and the African Union Agenda 2063. Addressing this burden will require coordinated national and international action, with health-system strengthening and context-specific cancer-control strategies spanning prevention, early diagnosis, and treatment.

[Policy Review] Balancing benefits, costs, and harms: policy implications of expanding cancer susceptibility testing from genetics clinics to the general population
Cancer susceptibility testing is rapidly advancing beyond specialist genetics clinics into routine oncology and population-level genomics initiatives. This expansion positions germline pathogenic variants in cancer susceptibility genes and polygenic risk scores as crucial tools for precision prevention, surveillance, and early detection. However, implementation has outpaced the evidence needed to justify testing at scale, particularly in well populations. For a small number of first-wave genes—including BRCA1, BRCA2, MLH1, and MSH2—cancer risks are well established and downstream medical interventions are supported by substantial observational evidence, albeit with an absence of randomised trials.

[Review] Cancer and the microbiome: from association to intervention
The gut microbiome is increasingly recognised as a clinically modifiable determinant of efficacy and toxicity across systemic cancer therapies, with the most mature evidence in patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). The composition and function of intestinal microbes can influence treatment outcomes by affecting immune priming, antigen presentation, host–microbial co-metabolism, drug biotransformation, and epithelial barrier integrity. In melanoma, non-small-cell lung cancer, and renal cell carcinoma, higher microbial diversity, ecological stability, and enrichment of immunostimulatory pathways have been associated with improved ICI response and survival.

[Editorial] Personalising AML treatment: beyond age and fitness
Over the past couple of decades, the number of treatment options for patients with acute myeloid leukaemia has accelerated; however, most patients still do not survive long-term, with 5-year overall survival around 30%. For younger and functionally fit patients, the predominant front-line therapy has remained unchanged for half a century: intensive induction chemotherapy that includes cytarabine and anthracyclines (the 7+3 regimen). For older patients or those not able to undergo intensive chemotherapy, a combination of hypomethylating agent and venetoclax is now the standard front-line therapy, spearheaded by the VIALE-A trial in 2020.

[Correspondence] Response-adapted inotuzumab ozogamicin in paediatric first-relapse B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia
Nicolò Peccatori and colleagues provide evidence for inotuzumab ozogamicin in paediatric very-high-risk first-relapse B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia.1 The data support a less toxic bridge to haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), but the response denominators support a more specific clinical interpretation: inotuzumab ozogamicin is best viewed as cycle-1 molecular triage, not prolonged reinduction or a replacement for UK ALLR3 chemotherapy. Because ITCC-059 was a single-arm study and its statistical design was modified from 43 to 31 patients while increasing the alpha-error to 10%, comparative claims should be reframed as response-adapted sequencing.

[In Focus] From approval to practice: are clinicians and health systems ready for gene therapy in sickle cell disease?
Once a scientist's dream, gene therapy for sickle cell disease has now entered clinical practice. Autologous gene-based therapies offer a potential curative option for a disease that affects approximately 7·7 million people worldwide and remains associated with substantial morbidity, premature mortality, and entrenched health inequities. Regulatory approval, however, represents only the first step in a much longer translational pathway. Experience from other high-cost innovations suggests that without concurrent investment in implementation, workforce preparation, and financing, access could remain uneven or delayed.

[Articles] Rilzabrutinib, an oral Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor, in patients with warm autoimmune haemolytic anaemia: a prospective, single-arm, multicentre, phase 2b safety and clinical activity study (LUMINA 2)
To our knowledge, this is first clinical study of a Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor, rilzabrutinib, in warm autoimmune haemolytic anaemia. Rilzabrutinib showed robust overall and durable haemoglobin response and favourable safety in patients with previously treated warm autoimmune haemolytic anaemia. Rilzabrutinib has the potential to treat the underlying pathophysiology of warm autoimmune haemolytic anaemia through multi-immune modulation, induce a robust and sustained haemoglobin response, and provides an opportunity to decrease or stop corticosteroid use.

[Articles] Clinical activity and safety of rilzabrutinib in patients with previously treated immune thrombocytopenia (LUNA3): results from the open-label period of a phase 3 trial
Rilzabrutinib showed continued, stable, and sometimes improved platelet responses, including in patients who were initially non-responsive in the double-blind trial. Additionally, rilzabrutinib improved several disease aspects, including physical fatigue and bleeding, supporting its multi-immune modulation mechanism in immune thrombocytopenia, and had a favourable safety profile. The long-term extension period of LUNA3 will further characterise the long-term efficacy and safety of rilzabrutinib in patients with difficult-to-treat immune thrombocytopenia, and the ongoing LUNA4 trial (NCT07007962) will determine the efficacy of rilzabrutinib in earlier-line treatment and its potential to achieve sustained treatment-free response.

[Review] High time for risk-adapted treatment in mantle cell lymphoma
Mantle cell lymphoma has multiple treatment options, yet the disease is difficult to cure. Relapses are common, treatments can cause severe side-effects, and current recommendations are still largely based on age rather than biology. Although suitability for intensive treatment was previously the decisive parameter, increasing knowledge on the biology of mantle cell lymphoma and less toxic targeted therapies has made non-risk adapted treatments outdated. TP53 mutations or deletions, blastoid histology, and a high Ki-67 proliferation index consistently identify patients at high risk of relapse.

The classification of myeloid neoplasm based on presence of biallelic (multi-hit) TP53 should precede morphological classification. The identification of biallelic (multi-hit) inactivation continues to evolve and is a matter of great debate balancing definitive biallelic identification via assays, pathology classifications, and clinical applicability.

[Personal View] Redefining plasma cell leukaemia
Plasma cell leukaemia is an aggressive plasma cell malignancy characterised by the presence of a high percentage of circulating clonal plasma cells on conventional peripheral blood smear examination. We argue that plasma cell leukaemia must no longer be considered as a separate disease entity but as a type of high-risk multiple myeloma. With the adoption of more strict criteria for defining high-risk multiple myeloma and the relaxation of criteria in defining plasma cell leukaemia, the clinical implications of the terms have converged.

Rapid peak cilta-cel expansion is associated with delayed neurotoxicity in multiple myeloma
B-cell maturation antigen–directed chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells are changing the landscape of care for patients with relapsed multiple myeloma, but neurological toxicity remains an issue. In this month’s CME article, Hosoya and colleagues reveal that ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel) is associated with higher CAR T-cell expansion than idecabtagene vicleucel and that absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) is a reliable surrogate measure for this. Greater CAR T-cell expansion reflected in a rapid ALC rise to higher levels can predict for delayed neurotoxicity, setting the scene for interventional studies testing whether strategies based on ALC rise can prevent these potentially devastating toxicities.

A phase 2 trial of daratumumab monotherapy for patients with newly diagnosed cardiac stage IIIb AL amyloidosis
For most patients with light-chain (AL) amyloidosis, the standard initial treatment is Dara-VCd (daratumumab, bortezomib, cyclophosphamide, and dexamethasone) induction, followed by Dara maintenance. But the sickest patients, those with significant cardiac involvement, do not tolerate the regimen and have a 40% early death rate. Kastritis et al report the results of a phase 2 trial of Dara monotherapy as initial therapy, with selective introduction of bortezomib plus dexamethasone for patients without a major response after 3 cycles. They found both excellent tolerability and efficacy, including a 30% cardiac response rate. This regimen can be recommended for patients with stage IIIb AL amyloidosis based on this evidence.

The NG2-ITGA4 axis regulates Rho GTPases and leukemic aggressiveness in KMT2A-r B-ALL and is targetable with natalizumab
KMT2A-rearranged (KMT2A-r) B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) carries a poor prognosis despite recent advances in therapy. Rubio-Gayarre and colleagues explored upregulation of the membrane-bound proteoglycan neuron-glial antigen 2 (NG2) in these leukemias. NG2 acts as a scaffold to recruit Rho GTPase regulatory proteins downstream of α4 integrin (ITGA4) signaling, promoting leukemia progression and disease aggressiveness. The authors show that the ITGA4-binding monoclonal antibody natalizumab delays leukemia progression and potentiates the efficacy of standard-of-care chemotherapy in KMT2A-r B-ALL patient-derived xenograft models, suggesting that repurposing of this drug may have a future role in therapy for this leukemia subtype.

TRANSFORM-1 phase 3 study: efficacy and safety of navitoclax plus ruxolitinib in patients with untreated myelofibrosis
The JAK inhibitors reduce splenomegaly and improve symptom control in patients with myelofibrosis, but usually they do not modify the underlying disease process. Myeloproliferative neoplasms display dependence on BCLxL, leading to the study of navitoclax, a dual BCL2/BCLxL inhibitor, with promising results suggesting disease modification in early-phase trials in combination with ruxolitinib. Pemmaraju et al report a phase 3 randomized trial of navitoclax versus placebo, finding that, while navitoclax doubles the spleen response and generates greater reductions in the variant allele frequency of mutant JAK2, there is no improvement in symptom scores and there is more hematological toxicity. These data highlight the challenges to drug development for this disease.

Specialized proresolving mediators (SPMs) are short-lived, short-ranged lipid signals derived from ω-3 fatty acids. They are known to regulate inflammation resolution and promote tissue repair, partly by restraining emergency myelopoiesis. Using elegant genetic murine models, Koenis et al demonstrate that erythroblasts produce SPMs that instruct macrophages expressing GPR101, a proresolving lipid receptor, to support balanced development and function of neutrophils. These data identify erythroblasts as immunomodulatory cells within the bone marrow niche.

IL-6 receptor inhibition promotes expansion of cytolytic CD4+ T cells after cellular immunotherapy
We still have much to learn about the in vivo function of T-cell subsets and how it is modulated, especially in the context of T-cell immunotherapy. Williams and colleagues studied patient samples and murine genetic models to describe a previously unrecognized role for interleukin-6 (IL-6) in suppressing the differentiation of eomesodermin-positive cytolytic and type 1 regulatory CD4+ T cells. Inhibition of IL-6 receptor signaling induces these cells and increases antitumor activity in model systems. These findings suggest strategies to optimize use of drugs such as tocilizumab in the period immediately before T-cell infusion.

Arterial iron regulates vasodilation during anemia via endothelial holo-α-globin
Are the hemodynamic changes observed in iron deficiency anemia solely due to reduced red cell hemoglobin and mass, or does iron insufficiency directly affect the vasculature as well? Dunaway et al reveal that it is the latter. They provide compelling genetic evidence from murine models that endothelial iron deficiency directly alters vascular tone through reduction in α-hemoglobin with consequent increases in nitric oxide signaling and vasodilation of resistance arteries. Intriguingly, this phenomenon is most pronounced in females.

An imprecise label in the era of precision medicine: labelling and access for daraxonrasib, the first pan-RAS inhibitor approval
The FDA recently approved daraxonrasib for patients with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma who received at least one prior systemic therapy or who are not candidates for multiagent systemic therapy. Critics call the second clause non-evidence based. However, this imprecision enables access: trials generally enrol only patients with good performance status, which does not reflect the realities for most patients with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma who never reach second-line therapy because their clinical condition deteriorates first. Real-world evidence should resolve any remaining uncertainty.

A modular framework for antibody–drug conjugate biomarkers
Antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) have transformed the management of various advanced-stage solid cancers. Nonetheless, and despite considerable development efforts, many of these agents lack reliable biomarkers of clinical benefit and/or are reliant on traditional methods of biomarker assessment, with biomarkers of resistance and/or toxicity largely overlooked. In this Review, the authors outline a modular ADC biomarker development strategy that considers the various components of these agents and discuss how biomarkers developed using this strategy might better inform patient selection, therapeutic sequencing, the development of rational combinations, dose optimization and regulatory strategy.
