Gopa Iyer, MD, of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, presents initial results from the phase I NEXUS-01 study, which evaluated LY4052031, an antibody-drug conjugate targeting Nectin-4, in patients with advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (Abstract 4508).
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).
Jame Abraham, MD, FACP, of Cleveland Clinic, provides an update on the DESTINY-Breast05 trial, which is an ongoing phase III trial investigating postneoadjuvant trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) as compared with trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) in patients with HER2-positive breast cancer with residual invasive disease and node-positive disease at surgery or inoperable disease at diagnosis. Dr. Abraham makes special note of rates of interstitial lung disease seen in the trial and methods of management.
Laura Alder, MD, of Duke University Medical Center, highlights emerging data discussed in the meeting’s oral abstract session on small cell lung cancer, including increased toxicity without efficacy benefit from concurrent chemoradiation and immunotherapy, the intracranial activity of tarlatamab-dlle, and early data for a SEZ6-targeting antibody-drug conjugate.
Antonio Llombart-Cussac, MD, PhD, of Medica Scientia Innovation Research (MEDSIR), discusses the ongoing ADELA study, a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized phase III trial of elacestrant plus everolimus vs elacestrant plus placebo in patients with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive HER2-negative advanced breast cancer with ESR1-mutated tumors who experienced disease progression on endocrine therapy plus CDK4/6 inhibition (Abstract TPS1154).
ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT06382948
Lorenza Rimassa, MD, of IRCCS Humanitas Research Hospital, and David James Pinato, MD, PhD, of Imperial College London, discuss positive phase III findings in intermediate-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with immunotherapy-based combinations with TACE, second-line data from IMbrave251, and novel targeted and bispecific antibody therapies.
