177Lu-PSMA-617 represents an acceptable option for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who are progressing after docetaxel, as it has been shown to provide similar overall survival benefit to that of cabazitaxel, with a stronger progression-free survival benefit and fewer toxicities
Ifosfamide induced small improvements in terms of prolonging event-free survival and overall survival compared with topotecan plus cyclophosphamide in patients with relapsed/refractory Ewing sarcoma.
Treatment with larotrectinib elicited robust and durable responses, had a favorable safety profile, and sustained survival benefit in patients with central nervous system TRK fusion cancers.
Extended follow-up data from the LIBRETTO-001 demonstrated that selpercatinib elicited durable responses in patients with RET fusion-positive solid tumors, including refractory gastrointestinal malignancies.
Zenocutuzumab was found to produce durable responses in patients with previously treated advanced NRG1-positive cancers, with antitumor activity observed across several tumor types, and to have an extremely well tolerated toxicity profile, according to data from a phase 1/2 trial (NCT02912949).
Induction therapy with the quadruplet regimen of daratumumab, carfilzomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone appears to be feasible in patients with high-risk, newly diagnosed multiple myeloma who are eligible for transplant, displaying safety benefits and responses.
Treatment with lisocabtagene maraleucel resulted in a high rate of durable overall and complete responses as second-line therapy in frail patients with relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma for whom hematopoietic stem cell transplantation was not intended, according to preliminary findings from the phase 2 PILOT study.
Ixazomib plus daratumumab without dexamethasone showed a positive efficacy profile for elderly frail patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma, according to results of the phase 2 IFM 2018-02 study.
The addition of panitumumab to mFOLFOX6 improved outcomes for patients with left-sided RAS wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer compared with bevacizumab and chemotherapy in the front-line setting, according to results from the phase 3 PARADIGM trial.
Patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma who received lenvatinib plus pembrolizumab experienced a longer time to progression on next line of therapy compared with those who received sunitinib.

Daratumumab plus induction/consolidation lenalidomide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone elicited higher minimal residual disease-negativity rates vs the RVd combination alone in patients with transplant-eligible newly diagnosed multiple myeloma, including those in high-risk subgroups.
The combination of lenalidomide (Revlimid), bortezomib, and dexamethasone (RVd) plus autologous stem cell transplant as initial therapy followed by lenalidomide maintenance demonstrated a significant improvement in progression-free survival vs RVd alone followed by lenalidomide maintenance in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.
