| Paediatrics: Metronomics — fulfilling unmet needs beyond level A evidence Nicolas André, Shripad Banavali & Eddy Pasquier Published online: 28 June 2016 p469 | doi:10.1038/nrclinonc.2016.102 To improve the survival rates globally for paediatric patients with cancer, looking beyond level A evidence to treat children in low and middle-income countries is imperative. Herein, we discuss why metronomic chemotherapy, which is less toxic and more affordable, offers a pragmatic approach to provide new standards for patients with relapsed disease who have no alternatives.

| Breast cancer: The 21-gene recurrence score — biology remains at the forefront Shannon L. Puhalla & Nancy E. Davidson Published online: 14 June 2016 p470 | doi:10.1038/nrclinonc.2016.98 The 21-gene recurrence score is a genetic assay developed to estimate the likelihood of distant recurrence in patients with oestrogen-receptor-positive, lymph-node-negative breast cancer treated with adjuvant endocrine therapy. Now, two studies explore how the 21-gene recurrence score has been used to inform treatment decisions in this setting and beyond. Full Text | PDF

M. Eggermont, Jean-Charles Soria, Christine Mateus & Caroline Robert Published online: 04 May 2016 p473 | doi:10.1038/nrclinonc.2016.58 Immune checkpoint inhibition is a novel approach to cancer treatment with enormous potential to improve the outcomes of patients with a range of malignancies. However, owing to this novel approach, a range of adverse events have emerged with different aetiologies to those of more conventional cancer treatments. In this Review, the authors describe the occurrence, and optimal management of adverse events resulting from use of immune checkpoint inhibitors.

| Biomarkers of residual disease after neoadjuvant therapy for breast cancer Frederique Penault-Llorca & Nina Radosevic-Robin Published online: 09 February 2016 p487 | doi:10.1038/nrclinonc.2016.1 The pathobiological features of the breast cancer tissue that remains present after neoadjuvant therapy (NAT) are a major determinant of patient outcome. The decision to further treat this residual disease has traditionally been guided by the features of the tumour at diagnosis, but substantial biological differences exist between treatment-naive breast cancer and the post-NAT residual tissue. In this Review, the authors describe how the evaluation of the response of breast tumours to neoadjuvant treatment should be standardized, and provide an overview of potential biomarkers of prognosis.

| Diet, nutrition, and cancer: past, present and future Susan T. Mayne, Mary C. Playdon & Cheryl L. Rock Published online: 08 March 2016 p504 | doi:10.1038/nrclinonc.2016.24 Diet has long been linked with the development and progression of cancer, and indeed obesity is a clear risk factor for many cancers; however, teasing out the relationships between nutritional factors and cancer aetiology has proved difficult, complicating the development of dietary recommendations for cancer prevention. In this Review, the issues and challenges in diet-cancer research are discussed, including those relating to the design of epidemiological studies, dietary data collection methods, and factors that affect the outcome of intervention trials.

| |  | | | | PERSPECTIVES | Top | OPINION Immunotherapy and stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (ISABR): a curative approach? Michael B. Bernstein, Sunil Krishnan, James W. Hodge & Joe Y. Chang Published online: 08 March 2016 p516 | doi:10.1038/nrclinonc.2016.30 Substantial interest exists in the effects of immunotherapy; however, radiation therapy also has the potential to stimulate an antitumour immune response. In this Perspectives, the authors describe the rationale for combining immunotherapy with stereotactic ablative radiotherapy based on the available clinical data, and provide recommendations for the future testing of approaches using this combination of treatments.
