Supriya Gupta, MD, of the University of Minnesota, presents data on azercabtagene zapreleucel, an investigational anti-CD19 allogeneic chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy, in combination with low-dose interleukin-2 in patients with relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) (Abstract 7012).

In addition, B7-H4 antibody-drug conjugates such as puxitatug samrotecan are emerging as options for relapsed/metastatic disease.
Samuel J. Klempner, MD, FASCO, of Mass General Brigham Cancer Institute, discusses a single-arm phase II study—which is currently open and enrolling (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT07070466)—evaluating ivonescimab in combination with FOLFOX as front-line therapy in locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic HER2-negative gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma (Abstract TPS4246).
