Concurrent use of sorafenib and stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for advanced liver cancer patients resulted in high toxicity and is not recommended outside of clinical trials, according to research presented at the American Society for Radiation Oncology’s (ASTRO’s) 54th Annual Meeting. This is the first prospective study of SBRT combined with sorafenib for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients, and initial outcomes indicate that the dose of sorafenib and the volume of tissue irradiated are key factors in the risk of toxicity; alternative sequencing of therapies should be investigated in future studies.

Over the last few years, new legislation mandating the inclusion of breast density findings in results letters sent to women after their mammography exams has begun appearing in a growing number of states. With three states having already enacted such laws, 17 states working on similar legislation and a federal bill recently introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives, Frost & Sullivan expects widespread breast density reporting laws to have a significant impact on the demand for and utilization of various breast screening technologies.
