Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated emergent human-like capabilities in natural processing, leading to enthusiasm about their integration healthcare environments. In oncology, where synthesising complex, multimodal data is essential, LLMs offer a promising avenue for supporting clinical decision-making, enhancing patient care, and accelerating research. This narrative review aims highlight the current state of medicine; applications oncology clinicians, patients, translational research; future research directions. Clinician-facing enable decision support automated extraction from electronic health records literature inform decision-making. Patient-facing potential disseminating accessible cancer information psychosocial support. However, face limitations that must be addressed before adoption, including risks hallucinations, poor generalisation, ethical concerns, scope integration. We propose incorporation within compound artificial intelligence systems facilitate adoption efficiency oncology. serves as non-technical primer clinicians understand, evaluate, participate active users who can design iterative improvement LLM technologies deployed settings. While are not intended replace oncologists, they serve powerful tools augment expertise patient-centred reinforcing role valuable adjunct evolving landscape
