Colton Jones, MD, of The University of Texas at San Antonio, talks about the results of a global, multicenter analysis that sought to determine the safety and efficacy of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) for the primary prevention of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in a pan-etiology high-risk cohort (Abstract 10522).
Ghassan K. Abou-Alfa, MD, PhD, FASCO, of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and Weill Medical College at Cornell University, presents efficacy and safety data from the randomized phase III EMERALD-3 trial, which evaluated tremelimumab plus durvalumab with or without lenvatinib combined with transarterial chemoembolization in patients with unresectable embolization-eligible hepatocellular carcinoma (LBA4000).
Mali Barbi, MD, MS, of Northwell Health Cancer Institute Center for Women's Cancer, discusses durable survival benefits shown in the NRG-GY018 trial with pembrolizumab and the RUBY trial with dostarlimab for patients with mismatch repair–deficient (dMMR) endometrial cancer. In addition, B7-H4 antibody-drug conjugates such as puxitatug samrotecan are emerging as options for relapsed/metastatic disease.
Walter Weber, MD, of University Hospital Basel, presents data from the international randomized phase III PREPEC trial (OPBC-02), which found prepectoral implant-based breast reconstruction (IBBR) significantly and relevantly improved long-term quality of life—at the cost of a higher risk of loss or replacement of expander or implant—compared to subpectoral IBBR (Abstract 504).
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).
Jame Abraham, MD, FACP, of Cleveland Clinic, offers his thoughts on findings from OPTIMA (Optimal Personalised Treatment of early breast cancer using Multi-parameter Analysis), an international randomized controlled trial comparing chemotherapy decisions made with the Prosigna (PAM50) gene expression test with standard treatment in mostly node-positive patients with high clinical risk ER-positive HER2-negative early breast cancer (Abstract 500).
