Gerhardt Attard, MD, PhD, on a Novel Regimen for Metastatic Castration-Sensitive Prostate Cancer With HRR Alterations
2025 ASCO Annual Meeting
Gerhardt Attard, MD, PhD, of the Cancer Institute, University College London, presents findings from the phase III AMPLITUDE trial, which looked at the combination of niraparib and abiraterone acetate plus prednisone for patients with metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer with alterations in homologous recombination repair (HRR) genes (Abstract LBA5006).

Raffaele Califano, MD, of the Christie NHS Foundation Trust and the University of Manchester, discusses outcomes by osimertinib resistance mechanisms in MARIPOSA-2, a study that evaluated the efficacy of the bispecific antibody amivantamab-vmjw plus chemotherapy vs chemotherapy in patients with EGFR-mutant advanced NSCLC after disease progression on osimertinib (Abstract 8639).

Andrew Kuykendall, MD, of Moffitt Cancer Center, discusses findings from the phase III VERIFY trial, which compared the efficacy of rusfertide vs placebo in patients with polycythemia vera who continue their current standard of care therapy (Abstract LBA3).

William G. Wierda, MD, PhD, of The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, discusses two abstracts on lisocabtagene maraleucel (liso-cel) in relapsed/refractory (R/R) chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL). In Abstract 7037, liso-cel with ibrutinib demonstrated better efficacy and safety compared with liso-cel monotherapy, with statistically significant differences for complete response rate and overall response rate. In Abstract 7039, patients with R/R CLL/SLL who had received two or more prior lines of therapy had improved response, delayed progression, and prolonged survival with liso-cel compared with a real-world cohort treated with standard-of-care therapy.

Andrew J. Armstrong, MD, MS, of Duke Cancer Institute Center for Prostate and Urologic Cancers, Duke University School of Medicine, discusses the 5-year overall survival analysis of the ARCHES trial, which investigated enzalutamide plus androgen-deprivation therapy in patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (Abstract 5005).

Nicholas D. James, PhD, FRCP, MBBS, of The Institute of Cancer Research and The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust, describes the use of a multimodal artificial intelligence (AI) model to identify benefit from second-generation androgen receptor pathway inhibitors in patients with high-risk nonmetastatic prostate cancer participating in the STAMPEDE trial (Abstract 5001).
