Shaping the use of AI in oncology
ESMO plays a central role in developing long-lasting recommendations for a safe and effective use of artificial intelligence supporting oncology stakeholders
Artificial intelligence is expediting the development of therapeutic immunotherapies
AI-driven approaches can help to design minibinders, which may bring new T-cell receptor-based therapies closer to the clinic
Novel combination shows survival benefits in high-risk gastric/gastro-oesophageal junction cancer
Encouraging data were reported for SHR-1701 added to first-line CAPOX in a post-hoc analysis of patients with high-risk features from a Chinese study
Next-generation PRAME-directed TCR T-cell therapy shows early activity in solid tumours
Tumour reduction was observed with IMA203CD8 across different PRAME-expressing cancers in a phase I trial
Retifanlimab prolongs overall survival in advanced squamous cell anal cancer
Benefits were seen across most predefined subgroups investigated in the practice-changing POD1UM-303/InterAACT-2 study
Neoadjuvant immunotherapy continues to rewrite our understanding of anticancer immunity
Integrating spatial profiling, single-cell technologies and blood-based correlates may help reveal why immunotherapy is effective in some tumours but not others
Exploring synergy to keep the immunotherapy flame alight
2025 ESMO Immuno-Oncology Awardee, Ignacio Melero, is confident that combinations and novel multispecific agents will result in synergistic strategies to ensure the continued success of cancer immunotherapy
Novel ADCs from Asia open new clinical opportunities
Phase I–II studies showcase the clinical potential of novel ADCs with enhanced targeting and/or payload strategies
Access to targeted treatments for patients with CUP is still an issue
Studies underline that a tumour-agnostic approach may help improve treatment options
Population diversity in cancer treatment – differences matter
Recognising diversity is essential to providing effective, well tolerated and accessible cancer care globally
