Lauren Averett Byers, MD, of The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, describes data on ABBV-706—an investigational antibody-drug conjugate targeting SEZ6—alone or in combination with the anti–PD-1 monoclonal antibody budigalimab in patients with relapsed or refractory small cell lung cancer (SCLC) (Abstract 8008).
Adam Kibel, MD, of Brigham and Women's Hospital, discusses findings from the phase III PROTEUS trial, which evaluated perioperative (neoadjuvant and adjuvant) apalutamide and androgen deprivation therapy vs placebo and ADT with radical prostatectomy in patients with high-risk localized or locally advanced prostate cancer. Dr. Kibel talks about how the regimen of apalutamide and ADT affects both the surgical procedure itself as well as patient outcomes postprocedure (Abstract LBA1).
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).
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).
Angimar Uriepero-Palma, MD, of Jefferson Einstein Philadelphia Hospital, discusses a study that showed use of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors was associated with longer 3-year overall survival and a lower risk of cytopenias and infections among diabetic patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) receiving Bruton’s tyrosine kinase inhibitors (Abstract 7051).
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).
