An exploratory analysis of the phase 3 KEYNOTE-B15 trial found that ctDNA status was strongly prognostic for event-free survival regardless of treatment arm.
The KEYNOTE-866 trial did not meet its EFS primary end point with perioperative pembrolizumab added to neoadjuvant cisplatin and gemcitabine.
The sacituzumab govitecan, enfortumab vedotin, and zimberelimab triplet produced early, durable responses in untreated metastatic urothelial cancer.
Surufatinib plus serplulimab and cisplatin/etoposide produced a 69.8% ORR in advanced extrapulmonary neuroendocrine carcinoma.
Efficacy outcomes in KEYNOTE-905 were consistent with a contribution of both enfortumab vedotin and pembrolizumab in cisplatin-ineligible MIBC.
Patient-reported outcomes from the phase 3 lidERA trial show preserved functioning and less frequent joint pain with giredestrant vs standard endocrine therapy.
Arcotatug tavatecan improved PFS and OS vs physician’s choice in previously treated, CLDN18.2-positive advanced gastric and GEJ cancer.
Exploratory subgroup analyses of the phase 2 DOVACC trial suggested a possible signal with the triplet in HRD-negative and PARP inhibitor–naive disease.
