BEACON CRC: Patient-Reported Quality of Life Results

This week, we’ll be featuring three researchers discussing findings presented at the 2020 Gastrointestinal Cancers Symposium: Dr. Scott Kopetz, of The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, discusses quality-of-life results from the BEACON CRC trial in BRAF V600E–mutated colorectal cancer; Dr. Brian Wolpin, of Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, talks about the efficacy of a blood-based screening test using cell-free DNA to identify methylation signals of hard-to-detect gastrointestinal cancers; and Dr. Zev Wainberg, of UCLA Medical Center, discusses a subset analysis of how a combined positive score in gastric and gastroesophageal junction cancers related to the efficacy of pembrolizumab in patients with PD-L1–positive disease.
