Bridging the gap: are animal models consistent with clinical cancer cachexia?
Bridging the gap: are animal models consistent with clinical cancer cachexia?, Published online: 06 February 2018; doi:10.1038/nrclinonc.2018.14Experimental research on cancer-associated cachexia is advancing at an accelerated pace while knowledge of the complex underlying biology of cachexia in humans lags behind. An unmet need exists to accelerate the identification of causal mechanisms in patients with cancer and to determine the parallels between experimental systems and distinct isotypes of human cachexia.

Targeting the IL-6/JAK/STAT3 signalling axis in cancer
Targeting the IL-6/JAK/STAT3 signalling axis in cancer, Published online: 06 February 2018; doi:10.1038/nrclinonc.2018.8The interleukin-6 (IL-6)/Janus kinase (JAK)/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) pathway is aberrantly hyperactivated in many types of cancer, and such hyperactivation is generally associated with a poor clinical prognosis. In this Review, the authors describe the clinical potential of agents designed to inhibit the IL-6/JAK/STAT3 signalling pathway, either alone or in combination with other agents, in patients with cancer.

Approvals in 2017: gene therapies and site-agnostic indications
Approvals in 2017: gene therapies and site-agnostic indications, Published online: 31 January 2018; doi:10.1038/nrclinonc.2018.11In 2017, FDA Oncology approved 17 new drug and biologic applications, 32 supplemental drug and biologic applications, and two biosimilar applications in oncology. These actions included landmark approvals of two chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapies and the first site-agnostic, biomarker-defined approval. Three next-generation sequencing 'oncopanels' designed to detect hundreds of somatic genetic aberrations were also approved. (Source: Nature Clinical Practice Oncology)

Paediatrics: Addressing the health burden of childhood cancer survivors — improvements are needed
Paediatrics: Addressing the health burden of childhood cancer survivors — improvements are needed, Published online: 31 January 2018; doi:10.1038/nrclinonc.2017.187Recently published data from a large-cohort study confirm the substantial burden of chronic health conditions among childhood cancer survivors, and describe the multiple chronic conditions faced by these individuals. The findings emphasize the need for specialized care in this unique patient population that, as discussed herein, often goes unmet. More must be done to ease the burden on cancer survivors; new models of care are required to improve their long-ter...
