Dual targeted therapy shows promise in mestastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma
The combination of lenvatinib plus everolimus improved progression-free survival in the LenCabo trial, but toxicity must be carefully assessed
Combination improves endocrine response after CDK4/6 inhibition in ER-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer
In the evERA BC trial, giredestrant plus everolimus led to a prolonged progression-free survival
Data from two novel TEAD inhibitors provide the first evidence for the efficacy and safety of targeted treatments in mesothelioma
In early phase studies, IAG933 and VT3989 led to encouraging disease control rates with manageable toxicity
First-line bemarituzumab improves short-term survival in gastric or gastroesophageal junction cancer overexpressing FGFR2b
Positive initial overall survival data were, however, attenuated and may not be clinically meaningful in a longer-term analysis
Atezolizumab plus a TIGIT inhibitor fails to demonstrate superiority to standard of care in NSCLC
Negative results are reported in SKYSCRAPER-03, while induction immunochemotherapy is investigated as a potential novel approach for unresectable stage II NSCLC
First-in-human trial of a TCR-T therapy targeting KRAS G12V reports a significant response rate
Preliminary results of NW-301V are promising, with a lack of severe adverse effects at all doses tested in patients with pancreatic cancer or colorectal cancer
New directions in metastatic mutated NSCLC
Precision targeting, immune modulation and rational trial design are converging to improve patient outcomes
Novel strategies to overcome resistance to immune checkpoint inhibitors show promise in early studies
Blocking GDF-15, an mRNA-based therapy and targeting VISTA have a strong mechanistic rationale, resulting in clinical benefit in heavily pre-treated patients
Promising novel strategies to boost anticancer immunity in NECs
Despite the presentation of encouraging study findings with novel immunotherapy-based therapies, long-term outcomes are needed to better understand the magnitude of clinical benefit and many questions remain around off-target toxicity and the identification of patients most likely to respond to treatment
What is next for radiopharmaceuticals in NETs?
While early-phase findings confirm the efficacy and mild toxicity of radiopharmaceuticals, patient selection and logistical issues limit their integration into broad clinical practice
