Asaf Maoz, MD, of Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Mass General Brigham, and Harvard Medical School, talks about whether prospective assessment of CA 19-9 has utility as part of pancreatic cancer surveillance among high-risk individuals (Abstract 10527).
Xin Gao, MD, of Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, discusses initial results from the phase I EXCEED trial of LY4101174, a Nectin-4–targeting antibody-drug conjugate, for patients with advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (Abstract 4517).
John V. Heymach, MD, PhD, of The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, discusses results from the primary analysis of the multinational phase III WU-KONG28 trial, which looked at sunvozertinib monotherapy vs platinum-based therapy as first-line treatment for patients with advanced non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and EGFR exon 20 insertions (Abstract LBA8500).
Tony S.K. Mok, MD, FRCPC, FASCO, of the Chinese University of Hong Kong, presents long-term findings from the CROWN trial, which evaluated lorlatinib vs crizotinib in patients with advanced ALK-positive non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). At 5 years, median progression-free survival was not reached with lorlatinib in this population, representing the longest progression-free survival ever reported in advanced NSCLC (Abstract 8502).
Christine Lovly, MD, PhD, FASCO, of City of Hope, offers her thoughs on the findings of the LIBRETTO-432 trial, which found improved event-free survival with adjuvant selpercatinib after definitive therapy for patients with early-stage RET fusion–positive non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (Abstract LBA3).
Misty Dawn Shields, MD, PhD, of Indiana University Melvin and Bren Simon Comprehensive Cancer Center, shares her perspective on two small cell lung cancer (SCLC) abstracts presented at this year’s meeting. The first focuses on a post hoc analysis of the phase III DeLLphi-304 trial (Abstract 8006), which looked at the intracranial efficacy of tarlatamab in the second line; the second evaluated concurrent thoracic radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and durvalumab in extensive-stage disease (Abstract LBA8005).
