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).
Lucy Gilbert, MD, of McGill University Health Centre, discusses subgroup analyses from the ROSELLA study. Relacorilant plus nab-paclitaxel demonstrated a statistically and clinically significant overall survival benefit in patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer compared to a weekly taxane; subgroup analyses for overall survival showed a consistent benefit favoring the addition of relacorilant to nab-paclitaxel irrespective of prior taxane use (Abstract 5503).
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).
Wassim McHayleh, MD, FACP, MBA, of AdventHealth Cancer Institute, provides an update from the phase Ib/II ELEVATE trial, an open-label umbrella study. This report focuses on updated safety and preliminary efficacy for elacestrant and capivasertib for patients with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive/HER2-negative advanced breast cancer who experienced disease progression on first-line endocrine therapy plus CDK4/6 inhibition (Abstract 1098).
Julie R. Gralow, MD, FACP, FASCO, Chief Medical Officer and Executive Vice President of ASCO, provides an overview of the highlights of this year’s meeting, including practice-changing data included in the Plenary Session.
Misty Dawn Shields, MD, PhD, of Indiana University Melvin and Bren Simon Comprehensive Cancer Center, shares her perspective on two small cell lung cancer (SCLC) abstracts presented at this year’s meeting. The first focuses on a post hoc analysis of the phase III DeLLphi-304 trial (Abstract 8006), which looked at the intracranial efficacy of tarlatamab in the second line; the second evaluated concurrent thoracic radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and durvalumab in extensive-stage disease (Abstract LBA8005).
