OncLive® On Air

In today’s episode, we sat down with Kelly E. McCann, MD, PhD, and Sara Nunnery, MD, MSCI, as they shared their stories and perspectives as leading women in oncology in honor of International Women's Day, which is observed annually on March 8. Dr McCann is a breast medical oncologist in the University of California system. Dr Nunnery is a breast medical oncologist with Tennessee Oncology in Nashville.
Forming the backdrop of our exclusive discussion were insights shared during the 2026 OncLive Women in Oncology event, which took place on March 5, 2026, to kick off the 43rd Annual Miami Breast Cancer Conference. In our exclusive interview, Drs McCann and Nunnery used the Women in Oncology discussion as the basis for relaying their own experiences, observations, and advice regarding setting boundaries, striving for work-life harmony, advocating for oneself, and more.

In today’s episode, we welcomed Saad Z. Usmani, MD, MBA, FACP, FASCO, to discuss the significance of the January 2026 FDA approval of daratumumab and hyaluronidase-fihj (Darzalex Faspro) in combination with bortezomib (Velcade), lenalidomide (Revlimid), and dexamethasone (VRd) for the treatment of adult patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma who are not eligible for autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT).Usmani is chief of Myeloma Service at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York, New York, and the recipient of the 2025 Giants of Cancer Care award for multiple myeloma.

In the exclusive interview, Dr Usmani explained the clinical implications of the regulatory decision that expanded the indication for daratumumab plus VRd to the transplant-ineligible setting, detailed the pivotal data from the phase 3 CEPHEUS trial (NCT03652064) that supported the approval, and provided context for treatment strategies with this regimen in clinical practice.

In this podcast, experts Ashish M. Kamat, MD, MBBS, Katie S. Murray, DO, MS, and Thomas Powles, MD, MBBS, MRCP, discuss the classification of BCG responsiveness and intravesical and systemic therapies for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.

In today’s episode, we spoke with Eric K. Singhi, MD. Dr Singhi is an assistant professor in the departments of general oncology and thoracic/head and neck medical oncology at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston.
Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are rapidly emerging as one of the most exciting therapeutic advances in lung cancer. In this episode, Singhi explored how TROP2-directed ADCs are beginning to reshape treatment strategies across both non–small cell and small cell lung cancer.
Singhi discussed where these agents currently fit within the treatment algorithm for EGFR-mutant non–small cell lung cancer, including the recent accelerated approval of datopotamab deruxtecan-dlnk (Datroway; Dato-DXd) and the evolving clinical data supporting its use after progression on targeted therapy and platinum-based chemotherapy. He also examined emerging evidence for other TROP2-targeting agents such as sacituzumab tirumotecan (sac-TMT) and what early trial results suggest about response rates and future treatment sequencing.
Beyond efficacy, Singhi highlighted the practical considerations oncologists must navigate as ADCs enter routine practice, from managing chemotherapy-like toxicities to monitoring for unique adverse effects such as stomatitis, ocular effects, and interstitial lung disease.
In our exclusive interview, Dr Singhi discussed where agents like dato-DXd and sac-TMT may fit in evolving treatment algorithms, the clinical data driving their momentum, and what oncologists should consider as these therapies move closer to routine practice in lung cancer.

In this podcast, experts Mara Antonoff, MD, FACS; Laura Alder, MD; and Stephanie Worrell, MD, FACS, discuss the latest advances in immunotherapy and EGFR-targeted treatments for patients with resectable, early-stage, non–small cell lung cancer.
