Timing of severe symptom onset is the only distinct difference between late and classic acute graft-vs-host disease, and long-term outcomes were similar between the two types of disease.

Newer frontline therapies demonstrated a real-world improvement in survival and responses compared with sorafenib in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.

Sequential administration of lintuzumab-Ac225 after salvage chemotherapy proved to be safe and feasible, and to result in high response and minimal residual disease negativity rates in high-risk patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia.

The addition of carboplatin to taxane-anthracycline chemotherapy led to a significant improvement in event-free survival and overall survival as neoadjuvant therapy in patients with operable and locally advanced triple-negative breast cancer.

Four weeks of treatment with nivolumab plus ipilimumab elicited major pathologic responses in 95% of patients with mismatch repair–deficient colon cancer.

The addition of isatuximab to carfilzomib and dexamethasone elicited a clinically meaningful improvement in depth of response in patients with relapsed multiple myeloma.
