François-Clément Bidard, MD, PhD, on Advanced Breast Cancer With Emergent ESR1 Mutations: First-Line Option
ASCO 2026
François-Clément Bidard, MD, PhD, of Institut Curie, presents final progression-free survival 2 findings from the phase III SERENA-6 trial, which investigated the efficacy of camizestrant, a selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD), vs continued aromatase inhibition in patients with advanced breast cancer with emergent ESR1 mutations. Earlier reports from the trial showed improved progression-free survival with the SERD (Abstract LBA1007).

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).

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).
Daniel A. Ermann, MD, of Huntsman Cancer Institute, University of Utah School of Medicine, reviews data from a retrospective analysis that compared the real-world effectiveness of monotherapy first-line treatment for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) based on overall survival and time to next treatment (Abstract 7045).
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).
Jennifer A. Woyach, MD, of The Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard J. Solove Research Institute at The Ohio State University, discusses the ongoing, actively recruiting ROCKET-CLL trial, which is a phase III study aiming to compare the efficacy of rocbrutinib vs pirtobrutinib in patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) who have been pretreated with Bruton tyrosine kinase covalent inhibitors (Abstract TPS7100).
