Treatment‐Related Adverse Events and Health‐Related Quality of Life Associated With Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Treatment for Mucosal Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Scoping Review

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Supportive care needs of patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) are ill‐defined. Hence, known treatment‐related adverse events (TRAEs) and health‐related quality of life (HRQoL) associated with ICI treatment for HNSCC were examined to inform future supportive care ...

The 9th Edition of the UICC TNM Classification of Malignant Tumours: Updates and Rationale for Change

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The standard for assessing and recording the extent of the tumour, a necessity for most malignancies, is the Tumour Node Metastases (TNM) classification. The Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) TNM committee has defined this since the early 1950s.

Tumor‐Regional Immune Microenvironment: A Critical Factor in the Design of Radiotherapy–Immunotherapy Combination Trials

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Clinical trials combining radiotherapy (RT) with immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) have shown improved outcomes in only a fraction of patients, and optimal strategies for integrating these modalities remain under intense investigation. With a few exceptions, phase III combination trials have yielded disappointing results.
