The historical boundaries of what was possible in the management of patients with breast cancer continue to be challenged, evidenced by the use of HER2-directed therapies in patients with brain metastases, de-escalated approaches in patients with visceral disease, and less-invasive surgical techniques for patients with lymph node involvement.
Tiffany Traina, MD, discusses the body of evidence supporting the use of CDK4/6 inhibitors in hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative breast cancer, shifting standards of care in HER2-positive disease, as well as biomarkers of response with checkpoint inhibitors and PARP inhibitors in triple-negative breast cancer.
Jae Park, MD, discusses dosing strategies utilized in the phase 1/2 FELIX trial in relapsed/refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Although the addition of copanlisib to ibrutinib resulted in a high overall response rate in patients with relapsed/refractory mantle cell lymphoma, the regimen was found to have additive toxicity, according to findings from a small phase 1 trial.
