[Editorial] The promise and perils of AI in oncology
Technological innovations in health care—including artificial intelligence (AI)—have rapidly transformed core components of oncology care. With public health-care systems under substantial financial strain, advancing digital technology has become a game-changing tool in modern oncology workflows. Such technology offers the potential for more precise, efficient, and cost-effective interventions and could help to revolutionise clinical trials, cancer diagnosis, treatment, and health outcomes; reduce waiting times; and ease pressure on health-care services.

[Comment] Reshaping breast cancer radiotherapy after FAST-Forward
Breast radiotherapy is an integral component of breast cancer care to reduce locoregional recurrence.1 Historically, radiotherapy was delivered daily in 25–30 fractions over 5–6 weeks. Radiobiological and technological advances have enabled hypofractionation: shorter courses with larger doses per fraction achieve similar tumour control while reducing late tissue effects through reduced total dose.2 This approach was established in the first generation breast hypofractionation trials,3,4 in which the 3-week regimen (40 Gy in 15 fractions or 42·5 Gy in 16 fractions) matched the tumour control of conventional fractionation with less late tissue effects.

[Comment] The global cancer workforce crisis: a shared responsibility, a united front
The Lancet Oncology Commission on the cancer workforce1 presents a stark analysis of an impending global health catastrophe. The Commission projects a workforce shortage of nearly 100 million individuals by 2050. This shortage directly correlates with a widening survival gap between high-income countries (HICs) and low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs). By 2050, Africa's 5-year net survival rate could be nearly half that of HICs, a disparity directly linked to the lack of qualified health professionals.

[Comment] AI and the cancer workforce: what problem are we solving?
The Lancet Oncology Commission on the cancer workforce1 arrives at a moment of mounting pressure on cancer systems worldwide. However, the workforce crisis is not only a question of numbers, it reflects deeper challenges in how care is organised, delivered, and experienced. Patients, families, and caregivers continue to describe systems that are fragmented, impersonal, and poorly equipped to care for the person beyond the disease. At the same time, burnout and moral injury among oncology professionals are rising, further deepening the workforce crisis.

[Comment] From shortage to synergy: transforming global radiology workforce capacity with digital innovation and task-shifting
Workforce disparities in cancer care represent one of the most profound and persistent inequities in global health, with low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs) bearing a disproportionate share of cancer mortality. While high-income countries (HIC) maintain a relatively high number of specialists involved in cancer care, many LMICs struggle with major shortages. This inequality is notably severe for diagnostic specialists, who are 15 times more prevalent in HICs than in low-income regions.

We thank Hector Prudhomme and colleagues for their interest in our Article describing a consensus definition of oligometastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.1 Para-aortic lymph nodes are an important site of metastasis in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and were therefore explicitly addressed, both in the Delphi process and in vignette three. Although 27 (82%) of 33 respondents to vignette three considered it oligometastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, only 32 (56%) of 57 in the Delphi consensus classified para-aortic lymph node metastasis as oligometastasis, thereby meaning that the predefined 75% or greater consensus threshold was not reached.

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths, causing approximately 1.8 million deaths worldwide.1 Screening with low-dose CT (LDCT) has been shown to significantly reduce lung cancer-specific mortality among populations at high-risk by 20–26%.2 National lung cancer screening programmes have been implemented in several countries and will be introduced in Germany in 2026. Despite these advances, population-level implementation fails to adequately reach those at highest risk;3 globally, lung cancer screening programmes face persistent challenges in achieving equitable access across racial, ethnic, geographic, and socioeconomic groups.

[The Lancet Oncology Commission] Cancer workforce—a global crisis: a Lancet Oncology Commission
The shortage of well-trained personnel to deliver cancer care and conduct research remains a major obstacle to reducing disparities in cancer survival between high-income countries and low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs). This Commission set out to provide actionable guidance for strengthening the global cancer workforce with an emphasis on reducing these disparities. To better understand the extent of the rising global cancer burden and the resulting workforce needs, we modelled the current and future global landscape of 17 common cancers and 18 workforce personnel types.

[Editorial] Mental health at the heart of haematology
May is a time to elevate mental health awareness. In the USA, May is designated as Mental Health Awareness Month; Europe marks Mental Health Week (May 4–8); and the UK observes Mental Health Awareness Week (May 11–17). These events invite a renewed collective focus on connection, resilience, and hope for the more than one billion people worldwide who live with mental health conditions, placing a substantial burden on individuals and health systems. Yet, our understanding of mental health within the fields of haematology and haematological oncology remains limited.

[Comment] Two decades of phase 1 and 2 trials in relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
Since the year 2000, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have authorised many novel cancer therapies based on phase 1–2 single-arm trials.1,2 Most of these were granted as conditional marketing authorisations (EMA) or Accelerated Approvals (FDA), which aim to provide early access to promising therapies in diseases with high unmet medical need. Acknowledging that single-arm trials can show biological activity but cannot reliably establish whether an experimental treatment is better than the current standard, these approvals are contingent on demonstration of clinical benefit in subsequent confirmatory randomised trials.

[In Focus] From enrolment to authorship: racial and global disparities in phase 3 multiple myeloma clinical trials
Clinical trials in multiple myeloma continue to fail populations most affected by the disease, with Black individuals remaining profoundly underrepresented in the studies that define contemporary treatment standards. Multiple myeloma is the second most common haematological malignancy, and the incidence, prevalence, and disability-adjusted life years attributable to the disease have increased over time, with mortality rates remaining high. Despite this burden, the therapeutic landscape of multiple myeloma has been transformed by the development of novel agents evaluated in clinical trials, resulting in substantial improvements in survival and meaningful gains in quality of life.

[Review] Who will watch the watchmen: unique challenges of T-cell redirecting therapies in T-cell malignancies
The development of novel T-cell redirecting immune therapies—including immune checkpoint inhibitors, bispecific antibodies, chimeric antigen receptor T cells, and virus-specific T cells—represents a major advancement in the treatment of haematological malignancies. Although such therapies have strong evidence for efficacy in the treatment of B-cell neoplasms, several unique challenges are encountered when using these therapies for the treatment of T-cell malignancies. In this Review, we discuss the application of T-cell modulating immune therapies in T-cell neoplasms, with a focus on the complicated bidirectional interactions between malignant and bystander T cells in disease pathogenesis, and the resultant challenges affecting the design and deliverability of T-cell modulating therapies in this cohort.

[Review] Guidelines for the management of acute porphyria: recommendations from the International Porphyria Network
Autosomal dominant acute porphyrias are rare inherited disorders of haem biosynthesis characterised by accumulation of potentially neurotoxic porphyrin precursors and attacks of severe abdominal pain with autonomic and neuropsychiatric features. Disease severity ranges from asymptomatic individuals to those with recurrent, life-threatening attacks. The International Porphyria Network invited 34 acute porphyria specialists from 17 countries to form an expert panel. The invited group included clinicians from diverse specialities (ie, internal medicine, haematology, endocrinology, gastroenterology, hepatology, neurology, and biochemistry), together with laboratory scientists and patient representatives.

[Clinical Picture] An otherwise smouldering multiple myeloma with a solitary osteolytic lesion and soft-tissue mass
A 69-year-old woman was referred to our department after monoclonal gammopathy was detected during routine testing. Her medical history included dyslipidaemia, hypothyroidism, and right hip replacement due to congenital dysplasia. Physical examination, complete blood count, and serum biochemical tests were unremarkable. Immunofixation revealed monoclonal IgGλ (total IgG 1060 mg/dL), with a normal free light chain (FLC) ratio. Urine immunofixation was negative. A bone marrow biopsy showed 12% clonal plasma cell infiltration, consistent with smouldering multiple myeloma (SMM) pending whole-body, low-dose CT (WBLD–CT).

A 67-year-old woman was diagnosed with nodal marginal zone lymphoma with IgMκ paraproteinaemia, circulating monoclonal B cells, multifocal lymph node involvement (MYD88WT), and splenomegaly. Rituximab monotherapy yielded partial metabolic remission on PET–CT and an IgM concentration decrease from 15·4 g/L to 12·4 g/L (normal range: 0·4–2·3 g/L). However, the patient reported severe progressive diarrhoea (up to 50 times per day). A 13 kg weight loss resulted in total parenteral nutrition dependence.

Structural basis of HPA-1a alloimmunization in FNAIT and allosteric regulation of integrin conformation
Fetal and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (FNAIT) is caused by transplacental passage of maternal antiplatelet antibodies and severely affects approximately 1 in 1000 births. Zhang and colleagues probed the structure-function relationships underpinning interactions of alloantibodies against the most common target, human platelet antigen 1a (HPA-1a). Their data in this Plenary Paper help explain why some alloantibodies cause severe hemorrhagic FNAIT while others result in milder, asymptomatic thrombocytopenia.

Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura: celebrating 25 years of ADAMTS13
No disease better exemplifies how the science of hematology transforms care and outcomes for a disease than thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP). Scully, Carter, and Subhan review how a feared syndrome of idiopathic, acute multiorgan failure in the presence of microangiopathic hemolytic anemia came to be recognized as a deficiency of ADAMTS13 25 years ago, paving the way for high-resolution understanding of pathogenesis and multiple targeted treatment modalities enabling precision therapy. They also identify ongoing questions guiding current trials for both acquired and congenital TTP.

How I treat HLH-like toxicities after immune effector cell therapy
Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH)–like manifestations after chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy, now referred to as immune effector cell–associated HLH-like syndrome and high-grade cytokine release syndrome (CRS) with HLH-like multiorgan dysfunction, are increasingly recognized, and their management is evolving. Johnson and colleagues use 2 illustrative cases to outline their practical approach to these major clinical challenges. They emphasize early identification, use of anticytokine therapy with either emapalumab or ruxolitinib when organ toxicities worsen despite conventional CRS-directed treatment, and the need for ancillary supportive care as central to success.

Nonmyeloablative conditioning combined with the anti-CD117 antibody briquilimab in older adults with high-risk AML and MDS
While graft-versus-leukemia activity is the major therapeutic advantage of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT), clearance of leukemia pre-HCT improves outcomes and may improve engraftment. The humanized anti-CD117 antibody briquilimab disrupts critical stem cell factor–CD117 signaling to normal and leukemic stem cells. Muffly et al report a phase 1 trial studying the addition of briquilimab prior to nonmyeloablative conditioning in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic neoplasms (MDS), demonstrating major reductions in leukemic stem cells, minimal toxicity, and encouraging but preliminary posttransplant outcomes. Such precision conditioning approaches warrant further clinical investigation.

CSNK1E sustains stemlike drug persistence in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
Neither current mutational nor transcriptional profiling of bulk lymphoma biopsies explains why some cases of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) are resistant to standard therapy. To discover the molecular identity of chemotherapy-tolerant persister cell populations, Li et al longitudinally profiled DLBCL samples from patients who prove to have refractory or relapsing disease. These are less differentiated cells, akin to memory B cells, and their enhanced stemness is dependent on upregulated casein kinase 1ε (CSNK1E). These and other emerging data provide new avenues for elimination of relapse-initiating residual lymphoma.

High-dimensional spatiotemporal single-cell atlas and 3D imaging of the bone marrow microenvironment during CML progression
Although this is not apparent by standard microscopy, the bone marrow has functionally distinct areas where external signals govern stem cell behavior. It is postulated that these are disrupted in leukemias. Li and colleagues used high-resolution imaging and a murine model of BCR::ABL1+ blast-phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) to map the extent of leukemia-induced changes in the bone marrow microenvironment. They show leukemia-induced remodeling creating immune-privileged niches through T-cell exhaustion, as well as vascular abnormalities that fail to support normal hematopoeisis, refining our knowledge of how leukemia overwhelms normal marrow function.

The GATA1 N terminus coordinates metabolic reprogramming in erythropoiesis
The zinc finger transcription factor GATA1 is a master regulator of erythropoiesis, coordinating the differentiation program. In some conditions such as Diamond-Blackfan anemia and associated with some mutations in Down syndrome, a short form of GATA1 is dominant. Ling and colleagues define the function of this isoform, demonstrating in primary erythroid cells how it can reprogram metabolism through its regulation of PKM, the gene encoding pyruvate kinase M1/2.

Musculoskeletal and Marrow Sparing with Proton FLASH Radiotherapy in Juvenile Mice
Radiation‑induced musculoskeletal toxicities are one of the major limitations in pediatric patients whose skeletons are still developing. FLASH radiotherapy, delivered at ultra-high dose rates (>40 Gy/s), has demonstrated normal tissue sparing in preclinical models, but its effects on the developing skeleton and marrow remain incompletely characterized. This study evaluated the normal-tissue effects 10 weeks after proton FLASH irradiation in juvenile mice, modeling the pediatric context.

Toward Non-Invasive MR-Based Target Delineation for Ventricular Tachycardia Stereotactic Radiotherapy: Development of a 3D Wideband LGE MRI Technique
Cardiac stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) offers a noninvasive alternative to the conventional radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation for treating refractory ventricular tachycardia (VT) in patients who are poor candidates for ablation procedures. However, accurate target delineation remains challenging due to limited scar visualization on CT and implanted cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD)-related MRI artifacts. We developed and evaluated a 3D wideband (WB) late gadolinium-enhanced (LGE) MRI protocol for artifact suppression, geometric accuracy, and scar delineation in SBRT planning.

Impact of Distance from The Isocenter on Local Control and Toxicity for Zero Margin, Single-Isocenter Multi-Target VMAT based Stereotactic Radiosurgery for Brain Metastases
Radiosurgical treatment of multiple intracranial targets using a single isocenter is more efficient than sequential isocenter treatment. The primary concern with single-isocenter, multitarget (SIMT) stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is that rotational error may cause underdosing of peripheral lesions and/or increased normal tissue toxicity, particularly for targets distant from the isocenter. Many centers mitigate this risk by adding a planning target volume (PTV) margin, which increases dose to normal brain tissue.

Radiotherapy de-escalation in breast cancer patients with pathologic complete response: An integrated analysis using real-world and simulated data
Advances in neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) have markedly increased pathologic complete response (pCR) rates in breast cancer, prompting reevaluation of the need for adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) in patients with excellent treatment response. The NSABP B-51 trial showed no survival benefit from regional nodal irradiation in patients achieving nodal pCR after NAC; whole-breast RT was still routinely delivered irrespective of breast response. Thus, the potential to safely omit RT in patients achieving breast pCR remains uncertain.

Radiation-Induced Vaginal Stenosis in Cervical Cancer Patients in Low- and Middle-Income Countries: A Scoping Review
Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer among women worldwide [1,2] with over 600,000 new cases and over 300,000 deaths annually [3]. The burden is disproportionately higher among women in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where more than 85% of cervical cancer-related deaths occur due to limited access to screening, Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination, other HPV prevention strategies [3,4]. The global prevalence of cervical cancer is projected to increase by 14–17% by 2030 if no intervention is made to increase the availability of screening and protective vaccinations [5].

Measure What Matters: Rethinking Surrogate Metrics of Success in Radiation Oncology
Census-based surrogates such as patients on treatment, fractions delivered, and course length have traditionally been used to assess radiation oncology departmental performance. These measures may no longer capture the complexities of modern radiotherapy, given the increased adoption of hypofractionation and stereotactic techniques. This study analyzes longitudinal trends in clinical operations, including treatment modalities, fractionation patterns, and financial performance, to identify value-based departmental performance metrics.
