Y.Research Institute for Healthcare Organization and Medical Management, 115088, Moscow, Russia24102025331069107427102025Copyright © 1970,1970Amid the rapid expansion of biomedical publications and the increasing complexity of the oncology research landscape, there is a growing need for a systematic analysis of thematic priorities that define global and national trajectories of scientific advancement. Oncology, as a field at the forefront of interdisciplinary innovation, spans domains from immune and cellular technologies to molecular imaging and epigenetic targets. Identifying frontier research areas that combine high scientific intensity, sustained international relevance, and translational potential is becoming a key tool for science policy and strategic planning. This study aims to map the most prominent oncology-related topics that emerged between 2021 and 2025, using data from the SciVal platform. A content-bibliometric analysis was conducted on the twenty leading thematic clusters in global oncology, followed by a comparative assessment of their representation in the Russian publication landscape. Metrics analyzed included publication output, field-weighted citation impact (FWCI), engagement dynamics, and institutional distribution. The results indicate that Russian research is contributing to several key topics, exhibiting high citation performance in niche areas such as exosomes, CAR-T therapy, radiomics, and immunotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer. However, many globally significant topics remain underrepresented in the Russian agenda, reflecting structural and human resource gaps in areas such as epigenetics, microbiome studies, precision immunomodulation, and regulated cell death mechanisms. These findings highlight both thematic gaps and institutional growth zones that require targeted support. Identifying advanced research areas positioned at the interface of scientific innovation and clinical applicability may inform the modernization of research infrastructure, the prioritization of national grant programs, and the integration of Russian research centers into global scientific consortia.SciValFWCIoncologybibliometricsthematic analysisfrontier researchimmunotherapymolecular biomarkersdigital imagingRussian scienceSciValpublication activityFWCIpriority areasонкологиянаукометриятематический анализфронтирные исследованияиммунная терапиямолекулярные биомаркерыцифровая визуализацияроссийская наукапубликационная активностьприоритетные направления[Luo M., Yang W., Bai L. et al.
