[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.

[Correspondence] Brachytherapy capacity gaps and cancer control priorities
Abdurrahman Hajeer and colleagues published findings from an observational study in which 708 948 cancers were estimated to have required brachytherapy across 185 countries in 2022 (3·8% of incident cases).1 Assuming 218 cases per centre annually, 2246 additional centres would be required by 2050. These findings highlight major inequities in access but do not determine priority setting for cancer control resources.

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.

[Perspectives] Embedding equity in Germany's National Lung Cancer Screening roll-out: a call to action
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.

[Editorial] Closing the sickle cell disease-related health equity gap
June 19, marks World Sickle Cell Day, with the 2026 theme focusing on closing the survival gap and a push towards a universal cure. 20 years have passed since the WHO recognised sickle cell disease as a global health problem, and although some progress has been made, there is clearly still substantial work to be done to improve outcomes for those living with the disease around the world.

[Comment] Beyond biomarkers: tissue still matters
The diagnosis of primary CNS lymphoma has traditionally relied on stereotactic brain biopsy, while cytological analysis of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) or vitreous humour is diagnostic in only a minority of patients.1 Although essential for histopathological confirmation, brain biopsy carries inherent risks, with mortality rates ranging from 0·8% to 2·2%, and might cause substantial delays in treatment initiation.1 Consequently, the development of reliable, less invasive diagnostic approaches has become a major objective in the management of primary CNS lymphoma.

[Comment] Artificial intelligence triage tool for bone marrow fibrosis in myeloproliferative neoplasms using complete blood counts
Bone marrow examination is integral to the diagnosis and classification of myeloproliferative neoplasms, but is invasive, can be technically challenging, and is not always immediately feasible. Marie Donzel and colleagues present the Fibrosis Prediction in Bone Marrow using Artificial Intelligence (FIBOM-AI) model,1 a machine learning model trained to predict grade 2–3 bone marrow fibrosis using only age and routine complete blood count (CBC) parameters. Developed from a multicentre cohort using data from 1995 patients with a suspected or established myeloproliferative neoplasm across 13 French centres, and evaluated with both external and prospective validation, this study offers a practical example of how artificial intelligence (AI) can extract insights from routine, inexpensive laboratory data.

[Comment] Global roadmap for stroke in sickle cell disease: an urgent call to action on an overlooked burden
Sickle cell disease is one of the most common severe hereditary disorders worldwide. More than 500 000 infants are born with sickle cell disease each year, the majority in sub-Saharan Africa, where early diagnosis and comprehensive care remain limited.1 Advances in neonatal screening and infection prevention have improved survival, but this success has also exposed the growing lifetime burden of cerebrovascular disease.1 Stroke is a leading cause of morbidity, cognitive impairment, and disability in sickle cell disease.

Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia is often described as indolent—a leukaemia that unfolds slowly, sometimes over decades. In older adults, it behaves less like an acute malignancy and more like a chronic companion. Many patients are diagnosed incidentally and require no immediate therapy. The biology might be calm but the lived experience rarely is.

“You Look Fine” begins with LA-based comedian Jared “J” Snow trying a bit of boxing. His trainer holds the mitts and calls the combinations. Jab, right, hook, right, roll, finish with another right. J lands punches, moves competently around the ring, and rests when the bell sounds. After three rounds, he starts feeling discomfort in his chest, so he stops training and goes home to bathe in Epsom salts and swallow some painkillers. He hopes this will be enough to forestall a sickle cell crisis.

[Articles] Diagnosis of primary CNS lymphoma through molecular and immune biomarkers in cerebrospinal fluid (PRICELUS): a multicentre, prospective, cohort study
In this prospective, multicentre cohort of patients with suspected primary CNS lymphoma, we validated the high diagnostic value of MYD88, IL-10, and CXCL13. Results should be interpreted within the full clinical context and with caution, as the diagnostic algorithm and decision tree were derived within the same cohort. In selected clinical scenarios and with further validation of these results, combined CSF biomarker testing might support non-invasive diagnostic decision making and reduce reliance on brain biopsy.

[Review] A novel US-based grading system for disease severity in sickle cell disease: the Sickle Cell Outcome Grading System (SCOGS)
Sickle cell disease is a haematological disorder marked by recurrent events and progressive organ dysfunction, yet a standardised framework to assess disease severity is lacking. We developed a novel US-based severity grading system through identification of sickle cell disease-related complications mapping all to the Common Terminology Criteria For Adverse Events and applying a five-level severity scale. A modified Delphi process involving 29 US-based sickle cell disease experts was conducted over three virtual rounds (from Oct 20 to Nov 8, 2023; from June 26 to Aug 1, 2024; and from Nov 6, 2024, to Jan 7, 2025), with the use of a 9-point Likert scale ratings and iterative feedback.

[Clinical Picture] Double trouble: sequential lymphomas
An 83-year-old woman presented to our haematology department in June, 2025, with a 3-month history of palpable cervical lymphadenopathy and splenomegaly. Contrast-enhanced CT revealed enlarged cervical, axillary, inguinal, and visceral lymphadenopathy. A biopsy of a cervical lymph node verified a diagnosis of stage IV angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL; appendix pp 3–4). Immunohistochemistry showed atypical T cells positive for CD3, CD4, CD10, CD30, ICOS, BCL6, and PD1. In-situ hybridisation for Epstein–Barr virus (EBV)-encoded RNA (EBER) testing was negative (appendix p 7).

Introduction to a review series on clonal tracking in hematopoiesis
Over the past decade, advances in single-cell genomics, lineage tracing, and computational phylogenetics have transformed our understanding of hematopoiesis by enabling detailed reconstruction of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell clonal relationships across development and aging. Associate Editor Diane S. Krause introduces a comprehensive Review Series on the rapidly evolving field of clonal tracking in hematopoiesis. Rodriguez-Fraticelli outlines key experimental clonal analysis approaches and evaluates their strengths and limitations to guide appropriate method selection for specific biological questions. Tomei and colleagues synthesize clonal lineage–tracing studies to challenge the traditional hierarchical model of stem cell differentiation, proposing alternative frameworks in which lineage bias may arise early and multiple developmental pathways can produce the same mature cell types within phenotypically similar populations. Chen and coauthors explain how DNA methylation can serve as a heritable record of cell division to reconstruct clonal relationships in cancer and how integrating these signals with single-cell data enables reconstruction of tumor evolution while linking lineage history to cellular state and treatment response.

Differential role of CREBBP missense and truncating mutations in germinal center development and lymphomagenesis
B-cell lymphomas are often driven by altered transcriptional regulation of B-cell development. In this Plenary Paper, Yu and colleagues report that missense mutations in the gene encoding the transcriptional coactivator CREB-binding protein (CREBBP) have a stronger impact on normal germinal center B cells and lymphoma development than truncating mutations, despite both impairing CREBBP function. Missense mutations produce inactive CREBBP proteins that block compensation by the related protein EP300, leading to prolonged germinal center reactions, increased abnormal B-cell growth, and greater lymphoma-promoting effects in mouse models. These findings may help identify patients who could respond better to CREBBP/EP300-targeted therapies.

Isatuximab, bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone for multiple myeloma: dynamics of MRD negativity in the IMROZ study
The phase 3 IMROZ clinical trial showed that adding isatuximab to standard triple therapy significantly improved progression-free survival and increased measurable residual disease (MRD) negativity in newly diagnosed, transplant-ineligible patients with multiple myeloma (MM). Orlowski and colleagues present the results of an analysis of clinical outcomes of this trial according to MRD dynamics by sequential bone marrow MRD measurement, demonstrating that patients receiving the isatuximab-based quadruplet regimen have more favorable MRD dynamics during maintenance therapy, including higher rates of MRD negativity and lower rates of conversion to MRD positivity. These findings reinforce MRD negativity as a key therapeutic objective in MM.

Patient-derived lymphoma spheroids reveal predictive markers of glofitamab resistance in relapsed/refractory B-NHL
By using patient-derived lymphoma spheroids as an ex vivo platform, Marcoux and colleagues identify key mechanisms of resistance to the bispecific T-cell engager glofitamab in B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, showing that higher CD8 T-cell abundance and cytotoxic activity is associated with better therapeutic responses, while increased T follicular helper (Tfh) cells correlate with resistance. The authors further show that resistance could be overcome by depleting Tfh cells or combining glofitamab with TIGIT (T-cell immunoreceptor with Ig and ITIM domains) blockade, highlighting promising strategies to improve responses to T-cell engager therapies.

CSF-1R inhibition and lenalidomide synergize to promote myeloma control after autologous stem cell transplantation
The mechanisms of immune modulation by lenalidomide are not fully understood. In this study, Minnie and colleagues identify a suppressive macrophage subset that limits the effectiveness of lenalidomide maintenance therapy after autologous stem cell transplantation in multiple myeloma by restraining cytotoxic natural killer–like CD8 T cells. Blocking the CSF-1 receptor pathway with a Food and Drug Administration–approved antibody reduces these macrophages, enhances T-cell activation, and significantly improves disease control and survival in mouse models when combined with lenalidomide. These findings highlight the complex balance between immune activation and immune regulation during therapy and support the development of combination strategies that strengthen antimyeloma immunity.

Homeodomain-driven oncogenic diversion to a γδTCR phenotype in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia
T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is an aggressive hematological malignancy that may arise at different points during T-cell development. Pinton and colleagues reveal the origins of T-ALL by identifying 2 biologically distinct subtypes with T-cell receptors (TCRs) composed of gamma and delta chains (γδ T-ALL): a bona fide early progenitor-derived form, and a more mature cortical-like form caused by abnormal developmental signaling. Bona fide γδ T-ALL subtype strongly overlaps with the high-risk early T precursor and bone marrow progenitor-like signatures associated with treatment resistance. Importantly, these high-risk progenitor-like leukemic cells demonstrate potential sensitivity to venetoclax, highlighting a promising therapeutic vulnerability for difficult-to-treat T-ALL subtypes.

Overcoming menin inhibitor resistance in AML cells with combinations including BET proteins and a dual BRG1/BRM inhibitor
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) responses to menin inhibitor (MI) monotherapy are often of short duration. Fiskus and colleagues identify novel mechanisms of resistance to MI, showing that resistant leukemia cells become dependent on epigenetic regulator SMARCA4 and BRD4 pathways. The authors further demonstrate that combining the MI revumenib with the SMARCA4/SMARCA2 inhibitor FHD-286 or combining FHD-286 with the BET inhibitor birabresib effectively depletes resistant AML cells and prolongs survival in preclinical models. These findings support the development of rational combination therapies to overcome resistance and improve long-term outcomes in AML.

The fibrinogen αC region promotes arterial thrombosis in the context of hypofibrinogenemia
Hypofibrinogenemia is paradoxically associated with venous and arterial thrombosis by mechanisms that are not fully understood. Lee and coauthors report the absence of thrombosis in a cohort of patients with C-terminus truncating mutations in the gene encoding the fibrinogen α-chain (αC region) and demonstrate that the fibrinogen αC region plays a central role in arterial thrombosis by using mouse and molecular models of vascular injury. Overall, the study suggests that selectively targeting the fibrinogen αC region may offer a promising strategy to prevent both arterial and venous thrombosis while preserving hemostasis.

BET inhibition blunts antibody production and macrophage-mediated fibrosis to restore lung function in murine cGVHD
Kumar and colleagues report preclinical evidence that inhibiting bromodomain and extraterminal (BET) proteins may be an effective strategy for treating chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) by broadly reprogramming transcriptional inflammatory networks rather than targeting single cytokines. The BET inhibitor modulates multiple disease-driving pathways, including colony-stimulating factor-1 receptor (CSF1R) signaling and auto-/alloreactive antibody responses, suggesting potential advantages over existing therapies such as Janus kinase inhibitors, rho-associated protein kinase inhibitors, and anti-CSF1R antibodies. The authors’ findings highlight BET inhibition as a promising therapeutic strategy for cGVHD.
