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).

William G. Wierda, MD, PhD, of The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, reviews the final analysis of phase II CAPTIVATE study demonstrating the long-term efficacy and safety of ibrutinib plus venetoclax for previously untreated patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL), including in patients with high-risk genomic features. The 5.5-year progression-free survival and overall survival rates were 66% and 97%, respectively (Abstract 7036).

Elena Elez, MD, PhD, of Vall d’Hebron Institute of Oncology, presents updated overall survival data as well as progression-free survival data from the BREAKWATER trial of the first-line use of encorafenib, cetuximab, and mFOLFOX6 in BRAF V600E–mutant metastatic colorectal cancer (LBA3500).

Stephen K.L. Chia, MD, FRCPC, of BC Cancer Agency, reviews data from the phase III CCTG/BCT MA.40/FINER trial of fulvestrant and ipatasertib for advanced HER2-negative, ER-positive breast cancer following disease progression on first-line CDK 4/6 and aromatase inhibitors (LBA1005).

David Allen Barbie, MD, of the Lowe Center for Thoracic Oncology at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, reviews specific clinical and molecular features of early progressors and long-term progression-free survivors from the phase III ADRIATIC trial, which assessed consolidation durvalumab vs placebo after concurrent chemoradiotherapy for limited-stage small cell lung cancer (Abstract 8014).

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).
