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).
Michael G. Fradley, MD, of the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, discusses findings from a study which evaluated impact of atrial fibrillation on cardiovascular outcomes (stroke, bleeding, heart failure) and health-care utilization in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) overall, by age, and by treatment (Abstract 7042).

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).
Joel W. Neal, MD, PhD, of Stanford Cancer Institute, discusses updated overall survival data from cohort C of the CHRYSALIS-2 trial, which looked at first-line amivantamab plus lazertinib in previously untreated patients with atypical EGFR-mutated advanced non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (Abstract 8501).

Ramez N. Eskander, MD, of UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center, presents an updated overall survival analysis and examination of subsequent therapy in patients with endometrial cancer treated with pembrolizumab plus carboplatin/paclitaxel as compared to carboplatin/paclitaxel plus placebo in the NRG-GY018 trial (Abstract 5502).
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).
