Brian M. Wolpin, MD, MPH, and Eileen M. O’Reilly, MD, on Daraxonrasib in Previously Treated Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer
ASCO 2026
Brian M. Wolpin, MD, MPH, of Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, and Eileen M. O’Reilly, MD, of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, describe results from the phase III RASolute 302 trial, which evaluated the RAS(ON) muliselective inhibitor daraxonrasib in previously treated patients with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma (Abstract LBA5).

Sanjay Popat, PhD, FRCP, of the Royal Marsden Hospital & Institute of Cancer Research, talks about the findings of the phase III AcceleRET-Lung study, which looked at the oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor pralsetinib as first-line therapy for patients with RET fusion–positive advanced or metastatic non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (Abstract 8504).

Evan T. Hall, MD, of Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center, discusses findings from the randomized phase II MATRiX trial, which evaluated the efficacy of the ATR inhibitor tuvusertib with or without avelumab in patients with anti–PD-(L)1–refractory Merkel cell carcinoma (Abstract LBA9514).

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).

Manali Kamdar, MD, of the University of Colorado, discusses a rapid oral abstract session that highlighted three trends in the field of lymphomas: improving outcomes in frontline diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, continued development of cellular therapies, and expanding molecular profiling.

Veronica Diermayr, PhD, of EDCC and A*STAR, discusses the use of artificial intelligence (AI) driven strategy called H&E 2.0 in gastric and esophageal cancer. Researchers tested the feasibility of training deep-learning models on hematoxylin and eosin images of gastroesophageal carcinomas and their ability to predict EBC-129 antigen expression directly from these images. EBC-129 is an experimental antibody-drug conjugate that targets N256-glycosylated CEACAM5/6, which is highly expressed on solid tumors, including gastroesophageal cancers (Abstract 4018).
