Xin Gao, MD, of Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, discusses initial results from the phase I EXCEED trial of LY4101174, a Nectin-4–targeting antibody-drug conjugate, for patients with advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (Abstract 4517).
Shailender Bhatia, MD, of the University of Washington and Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center, presents data from the phase III ADAM trial, a multicenter, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study of the anti–PD-L1 antibody avelumab in patients with Merkel cell carcinoma and lymph node metastases (Abstract LBA9504).
Krishnan R. Patel, MD, of the National Cancer Institute, discusses a combined analysis of the NRG/RTOG 9202, 9413, 9902, and 0521 trials that looked at using clinico-transcriptomic risk stratification to guide abiraterone treatment intensification among patients with high-risk prostate cancer (Abstract 5000).
Alicia K. Morgans, MD, FASCO, of Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, discusses data from the phase II ARACOG (AFT-47) randomized clinical trial, which compared the two androgen receptor pathway inhibitors’ effects on cognitive function in patients with advanced prostate cancer (Abstract 5005).
Manali Kamdar, MD, of the University of Colorado, discusses a rapid oral abstract session that highlighted three trends in the field of lymphomas: improving outcomes in frontline diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, continued development of cellular therapies, and expanding molecular profiling.
Ronald C. Chen, MD, MPH, FASCO, of the University of Kansas Medical Center, presents health-related quality of life (HRQoL) data from the AMBASSADOR trial, which showed that in patients with high-risk muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma after radical surgery, adjuvant pembrolizumab for 1 year approximately doubled disease-free survival, causes fatigue and dyspnea which modestly impacted physical function and ability to perform certain roles (such as work and hobbies), without impact on overall quality of life (Abstract 4513).
