Giannis S. Mountzios, MD, of Henry Dunant Hospital Center, discusses findings from a post hoc analysis of the phase III DeLLphi-304 trial, which examined the intracranial efficacy of tarlatamab vs chemotherapy as second-line therapy for small cell lung cancer (SCLC) (Abstract 8006).
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).
Samuel J. Klempner, MD, FASCO, of Mass General Brigham Cancer Institute, discusses a single-arm phase II study—which is currently open and enrolling (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT07070466)—evaluating ivonescimab in combination with FOLFOX as front-line therapy in locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic HER2-negative gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma (Abstract TPS4246).
Danny Rischin, MD, of Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, talks about data from the disease-free survival analyses of the C-POST study, which were conducted per high-risk criteria and start time after radiotherapy. C-POST evaluated adjuvant cemiplimab-rwlc for patients with high-risk cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) (Abstract 6083).
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).
For more information about the trial, visit ClinicalTrials.gov (identifier NCT07342478).
Suneel Kamath, MD, of Cleveland Clinic, discusses a study that found tissue tumor mutation burden (TMB) was a stronger predictor of immunotherapy outcomes than blood-based circulating tumor DNA testing, with high tissue TMB associated with a longer time to treatment failure (Abstract 2580).
