David Henry’s JCSO podcast, May - June 2018

In his bimonthly podcast, Dr Henry, the JCSO Editor-in-Chief, discusses a round-up by JCSO Editor Dr Howard Burris of the top takeaways from this year’s annual ASCO meeting, as well as a series of articles focusing on CAR T-cell therapies. He also looks at reports on psychosocial factors and treatment satisfaction after radical prostatectomy; the impact of inpatient rehabilitation on outcomes for patients with cancer; the long-term effects of posttreatment exercise on pain in young women with breast cancer; and patient-specific cases of carcinoma of the colon in a child, managing severe radiation dermatitis after head and neck radiotherapy, striking rash in a patient on a checkpoint inhibitor, and a small gastric GIST with high mitotic index. He rounds off his comments with an examination of the challenges presented by tumor heterogeneity in the war on cancer.
