Alexander Drilon, MD, of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, presents efficacy and safety data from a phase II cohort of the ARROS-1 trial, which included patients with locally advanced or metastatic ROS1-positive non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who were naive to tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy (Abstract PL03.06).
Martin Reck, MD, PhD, of LungenClinic Grosshansdorf, reviews efficacy and safety data from the primary analysis of MDT-BRIDGE. The phase II study is investigating perioperative durvalumab plus neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with resectable/borderline resectable stage IIB–IIIB non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and evaluating whether chemoradiotherapy followed by consolidation durvalumab is effective and tolerable in patients who become unresectable during neoadjuvant treatment (Abstract OA04.02).
Giannis S. Mountzios, MD, of Henry Dunant Hospital Center, reviews primary results from the phase III EVOKE-03/KEYNOTE D46 trial, which evaluated first-line sacituzumab govitecan in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with metastatic non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and a PD-L1 tumor proportion score of 50% or higher (Abstract PL02.06).
Anne Chiang, MD, PhD, of Yale University School of Medicine, provides commentary on two China-based phase III studies presented in Presidential Symposium 1: TAISHAN-02, which looked at the antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) tambotatug pelitecan vs topotecan among patients with relapsed small cell lung cancer (SCLC), and ARTEMIS-008, which looked at another ADC, risvutatug rezetecan, among patients with SCLC whose disease progressed on and after platinum-based chemotherapy. Both agents target B7-H3 and showed promising efficacy and safety in this setting (Abstracts PL02.03 and PL02.04).
Roy S. Herbst, MD, PhD, of Dartmouth Cancer Center, discusses 8-year overall survival data from the landmark ADAURA trial, which showed the sustained long-term benefit of adjuvant therapy with osimertinib for patients with completely resected, EGFR-mutated stage IB–IIIA non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (Abstract PL03.01).
Adam J. Schoenfeld, MD, of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, discusses findings from BNT324-01, an ongoing global phase Ib/II trial looking at pumitamig, an investigational PD-L1 × VEGF-A bispecific antibody, combined with elfetabart drozuntecan (BNT324/DB-1311), an investigational B7-H3–targeted antibody-drug conjugate, with a focus in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) (Abstract OA14.02).
