Brendan Heiden, MD, of Washington University School of Medicine, discusses data from a unique real-world cohort of nearly 1 million patients in the Veterans Health Administration; researchers evaluated whether tobacco smoking duration improves lung cancer risk prediction compared with tobacco pack-years (Abstract 8004).
Dor Abelman, BS, of the University of Toronto, reviews results of a comparison of two minimally invasive measurable residual disease (MRD) assays—BM-informed cfDNA whole-genome sequencing (cfWGS) and plasma proteomic MRD (EasyM)—in patients with multiple myeloma (Abstract 7546).
Jason R. Westin, MD, FASCO, of The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, provides an update on the safety and efficacy data from the phase III SUNMO trial, which compared mosunetuzumab and polatuzumab vedotin vs rituximab, gemcitabine, and oxaliplatin in patients with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) (Abstract 7007).
Linda R. Mileshkin, MD, MBBS, FRACP, of Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, shares results from the phase I/IIA BLUESTAR study on the safety and efficacy of puxitatug samrotecan, a B7-H4–directed topoisomerase I inhibitor antibody-drug conjugate, in patients with endometrial cancer or ovarian cancer (Abstract 5515).
Jessica J. Lin, MD, Mass General Brigham Cancer Institute, presents data from the ALKOVE-1 study, which is looking at the investigational ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) neladalkib among patients with ALK-positive non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC); Dr. Lin discusses the first analyses of phase II TKI-pretreated patients and preliminary data in TKI-naive patients (Abstract 8503).
Thomas A. Jandl, MD, PhD, of Stony Brook University Hospital, discusses data from part 1B of the OLYMPIA-3 trial, which showed that among patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), the safety profile of the first-line combination of odronextamab and CHOP chemotherapy was generally manageable and preliminary efficacy was encouraging, with no meaningful differences between regimens. Additionally, combination with odronextamab did not impact the delivery of CHOP (Abstract 7009).
