Thierry André, MD, discusses the results of the phase 1 GARNET study with dostarlimab and the significance of these findings for patients with mismatch repair–deficient/microsatellite instqability–high solid tumors.
Durvalumab Plus Chemotherapy Improves pCR in Resectable NSCLC
June 30th 2022Neoadjuvant treatment with durvalumab plus platinum-based chemotherapy led to a statistically significant improvement in pathologic complete response and major pathologic response compared with chemotherapy alone in patients with resectable non–small cell lung cancer, according to findings from a planned interim analysis of the phase 3 AEGEAN trial.
Botensilimab/Balstilimab Combo Produces Deep Responses in Microsatellite Stable CRC
The combination of botensilimab and balstilimab elicited deep objective responses with evidence of durability and encouraging tolerability in heavily pretreated patients with microsatellite stable, metastatic colorectal cancer.
Atezolizumab Does Not Improve pCR in HER2-Positive Early Breast Cancer
Adding atezolizumab to neoadjuvant standard of care therapy for HER2-positive early breast cancer did not result in a better pathologic complete response compared with placebo, according to findings from the phase 3 IMpassion050 trial.
T-VEC Plus Pembrolizumab Generates Promising Responses, Safety in PD-1–Refractory Advanced Melanoma
June 20th 2022Adding talimogene laherparepvec to pembrolizumab led to encouraging responses with a manageable safety profile in patients with advanced melanoma who progressed on prior anti–PD-1 therapy, most notably in the adjuvant setting, according to findings from the phase 2 MASTERKEY-115 trial.
