Lisa A. Carey, MD, of the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill and UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center, and Dejan Juric, MD, of the Massachusetts General Hospital Cancer Center, discuss phase III findings on first-line use of inavolisib or placebo plus palbociclib and fulvestrant in patients with PIK3CA-mutated, hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer who relapsed within 12 months of completing adjuvant endocrine therapy (Abstract 1003).
Reshma Jagsi, MD, DPhil, of Emory University Winship Cancer Institute, and Tarah J. Ballinger, MD, of Indiana University Simon Comprehensive Cancer Center, discuss the disparate burden of taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy in Black women with early-stage breast cancer and how a tailored trial for this population showed that using docetaxel as the preferred taxane may be beneficial (LBA503).
Andrew Srisuwananukorn, MD, of The Ohio State University, and Alexander T. Pearson, MD, PhD, of the University of Chicago, discuss the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the clinic, its potential benefits in diagnosis and treatment, resources available to help physicians learn more about AI, and what’s coming for the next generation of medical school students.
Emily L. Podany, MD, of Washington University, St. Louis, discusses disparities in the use of PI3K inhibitors for Black patients with estrogen receptor–positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer while other drugs that do not require genomic profiling were similarly used (Abstract 1017).
Alicia Morgans, MD, MPH, of Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, and Susan Halabi, PhD, of the Duke Cancer Institute and Duke University School of Medicine, discuss a clinical-genetic model that identified novel circulating tumor DNA alterations that are prognostic of overall survival and may help to classify patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer into risk groups useful for selecting trial participants (Abstract 5007).
