Lucy Gilbert, MD, on Overall Survival by Prior Taxane Use in the Phase III ROSELLA Trial
ASCO 2026
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).

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).
