The First Editorial Board Meeting of Journal of Cancer Metastasis and Treatment (JCMT) in 2021 was successfully held on June 21, 2021. 47 Editorial Board members from 12 countries participated in the meeting. They come from the United States, France, China, Japan, Italy, Germany, etc.

The Editor-in-Chief, Professor Lucio Miele, presided over this meeting. He organized the agenda of this important meeting with the topic, Objective: Impact Factor 5.

Firstly, he presented the annual report of 2020 to the participants, including the submissions and publications, special issues, readership, citations, and new Editorial Board members. All of these contents were showed with specific data, figures, and tables. It was clearly displayed the development and progress of JCMT in 2020, which are completely based on the support of the Editorial Board members.

Secondly, Professor Lucio Miele raised some questions around the topic of this meeting for participants to discuss. When talked about the promotion of JCMT, Professor Jan Vermorken expressed his views and emphasized the importance of mainstream social media, such as Twitter. Meanwhile, he also commented on the significance of the Chinese periodical market and appealed to more Chinese experts to join us for the better development of JCMT. In addition, Professor Gopal Kundu, Professor Ava Kwong, and Professor Tingchang Chang, and other attendees also gave their suggestions to the advances of JCMT.

Finally, after a heated discussion, Professor Lucio Miele made a short conclusion about this meeting and expressed his gratitude to all of the participants. This is the first Editorial Board meeting in 2021 and the most momentous meeting to JCMT. We believe that JCMT will indeed develop even better in the future with the guidance and support of the Editorial Board members.
