HIGHLIGHTS FROM TAT 2025
Trastuzumab deruxtecan shows encouraging overall response rates in untreated HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer
Results from an interim analysis suggest the antibody–drug conjugate alone or in combination with pertuzumab may have a role in the first-line setting
First-line combination of an antibody–drug conjugate plus immunotherapy shows promise in non-small cell lung cancer
In the TROPION-Lung04 study, no new safety signals were observed with datopotamab deruxtecan plus durvalumab in patients with untreated advanced disease
Can AI and liquid biopsies take precision oncology to the next level?
According to the 2025 ESMO TAT Honorary Awardee, Prof. Philippe Bedard, new technologies have the potential to increase the wealth of information generated from trials and registries

Rare cancers: research progresses at a slower pace than in other areas of oncology
With its new peer-reviewed journal dedicated to rare tumours, ESMO supports knowledge and data sharing among the stakeholders in the field
Novel data continue to support the use of perioperative durvalumab with neoadjuvant chemotherapy in bladder cancer
Additional analysis from the NIAGARA study were presented
Final analysis reports a lack of overall survival benefit with datopotamab deruxtecan in HR+/HER2– breast cancer compared to chemotherapy
However, secondary endpoints of the TROPION-Breast01 continue to support a potential benefit of the antibody-drug conjugate in previously treated patients
