Hope S. Rugo, MD, FASCO, and Rebecca Alexandra Dent, MD, FASCO, on Breast Cancer Data Highlights: Sequencing of Endocrine Therapy
2025 ASCO Annual Meeting
Hope S. Rugo, MD, FASCO, of City of Hope, and Rebecca Alexandra Dent, MD, FASCO, of National Cancer Centre Singapore, review the results of a biomarker analysis of the DESTINY-Breast06 trial, which evaluated trastuzumab deruxtecan after endocrine therapy in patients with metastatic breast cancer (Abstract 1013). They also discuss findings from the SERENA-6 and EMBER-3 trials, also presented at ASCO 2025, and what all this new data means for the sequencing of endocrine therapy in patients with breast cancer.

Yelena Y. Janjigian, MD, of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, presents event-free survival data from the phase III MATTERHORN trial of the PD-L1 inhibitor durvalumab plus FLOT (fluorouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin and docetaxel chemotherapy) in patients with resectable gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer (LBA5).

South Florida has a unique demographic, characterized by a large Hispanic population with ancestries from the Caribbean and Central and South America. Arelis Esther Martir-Negron, MD, of Miami Cancer Institute, presents data from a retrospective analysis that sought to determine the frequency and spectrum of BRCA pathogenic/likely pathogenic variants in this population (Abstract 10579).

Luis G. Paz-Ares, MD, PhD, of Hospital Universitario 12 de Octubre, H12O-CNIO Lung Cancer Unit, Universidad Complutense and Ciberonc, discusses data from the TIGOS trial, a phase III study comparing the first-line use of atigotatug (an antifucosyl-GM1 monoclonal antibody) plus nivolumab fixed-dose combination with chemotherapy vs atezolizumab with chemotherapy in patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (SCLC) (Abstract TPS8127).
