Dosimetric impact of aperture‐restricted VMAT on heart dose in breast cancer treated with regional nodal irradiation

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Background Volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) is increasingly used for breast and chest wall (CW) treatment with regional nodal irradiation (RNI) because of its ability to sculpt dose around complex target volumes. However, VMAT can increase low‐dose radiation to surrounding normal tissues and particularly increase cardiac dose.

Resolving CYP2D6 Structural Complexity with Long‐Read Sequencing: Implications for Tamoxifen Precision Dosing in Thai Breast Cancer Patients

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 120, Issue 3, Page 774-785, September 2026.
Cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6)‐mediated bioactivation of tamoxifen to endoxifen is a key determinant of therapeutic efficacy in estrogen receptor‐positive breast cancer. In Asian populations, the high prevalence of structurally complex CYP2D6 alleles complicates conventional genotyping, limiting accurate genotype–phenotype correlation.
