Luis G. Paz-Ares, MD, PhD, on Extensive-Stage SCLC: Comparison of First-Line Regimens
2025 ASCO Annual Meeting
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).

Mafalda Oliveira, MD, PhD, of Vall d’Hebron University Hospital and Vall d’Hebron Institute of Oncology, discusses findings on the incidence and management of hyperglycemia in a subset of patients with prediabetes and/or obesity included in the phase I trial of inavolisib alone and in combination with endocrine therapy with or without palbociclib for PIK3CA-mutated, hormone receptor–positive, HER2-negative locally advanced/metastatic breast cancer (Abstract 1004).

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).

Martin Reck, MD, PhD, of LungenClinic Grosshansdorf, Germany, discusses data from the phase III AEGEAN trial that studied perioperative durvalumab and neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Patients who were MRD-positive after surgery had significantly worse disease-free survival compared to MRD-negative patients. In addition, mutations in KEAP1 and KMT2C were associated with MRD positivity and reduced benefit from the regimen, identifying a small high-risk subgroup with poor prognosis (Abstract 8009).

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).

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).
